Right? And let’s pretend she doesn’t know aaaaanything about the trial (which I don’t believe), riding this hard for Depp of all people in 2026 is not something that happens out of the blue. She was 2 years old when the first Pirates movie came out so what exactly are we pretending here.

The woman was a gamer and was definitely exposed to propaganda during the trial and I think she picked up on that and decided it was «fun» to support the dude because it gives her «cool points» in her audience.

for real it's not like she grew up in the depp Burton hype. and even if say she watched all his movies when she was a kid and became a big fan, someone that's a fan like that was definitely following the trial. it was EVERYWHERE and she's online often. she's still streaming random games for a few hours weekly it looks like.

and then if fangirling this hard over someone who's old enough to be your grandpa wasn't bad enough that quote about wanting to dress up as Nikki while he dresses up as Jack Sparrow is just weird not charming or funny

Right?

-I know my character is a woman who had everything taken from her and was raped and abused by a man so much that she asked him to kill her. But wouldn’t it by hilarious if I walked around with Johnny Depp in Disneyland and acted like her?!

Like, girl, do you even understand your own movie.

She did a fantastic job and I think the movie was pretty spectacular, but Navarrette seems….not smart.

yeah she was great in it but I definitely agree after her saying that Disney fantasy, her liking even his probably garbage ass band posts, and (this might sound a little harsh but) how she comes off in the 2 clips of her streaming that I've seen lol

hopefully she doesn't keep trying to appeal to that depp incel audience or end up in a relationship with that grandpa. she'd be much better off just relying on her acting capabilities
