Here's Johnny
Busy week! I spent three days this week watching the filming of Public Enemies. It was a very cool experience, though at times got kind of boring and way too cold. And yes, I did see Johnny Depp (Christian Bale was not filming here). At one point Johnny went by in a SUV and waved to the fans, but I wasn't fast enough to get that photo. Darn. Yesterday he drove past us in a scene and then the car broke down in front of us. What luck! I started to snap away....
...but realized it was his double. Darn again! I did get a photo of the director, Michael Mann
and these were the best ones I could get of Johnny

standing on the side of the car
We were just too far away. I think they will be coming back in April, so maybe I'll try again. From what I heard he was very gracious to the fans here. He's now my first celebrity sighting!
Have you had a celebrity sighting?


so cool! Thanks for posting the pictures!

Johnny Depp...how I love to watch him on the screen :). Lucky you to get a glimpse in real life. My only celebrity sightings have been Daniel Day Lewis and Julia Child. Happy weekend to you!

i lived in new york for three years, so i had quite a few celebrity sightings. the one that i was excited about most was keri russell. she sat down at a table next to us in brooklyn, and i turned so red. i am the biggest felicity fan, so i totally geeked out.

How fun! Oh, to see Johnny and Christian...
The only celebrity sightings I can think of is at concerts (James Taylor), and I walked right past Ingrid Michaelson on the sidewalk before her concert!
No movie stars, though.

Hey there! I'm 1500 miles away in Maine, but Darlington was my HOMETOWN...I have a couple posts on my blog about Johnny and some interesting photos...I'm quite jealous of all you back in WI. My own celebrity sightings? Danny DeVito/Rhea Perlman/Woody Herrelson all while on vacation here in Maine. That's as exciting as my life gets...the cast of Cheers...I hope it's okay but I'm going to mention your site on my blog!

well, in my teens I was visiting a friend in Milwakee (I'm from Italy) and we got to be in the crowd at a baseball game for Major League (the first one). At the end of a very long night the gorgeous (... he was young then... ok?) Tom Berenger signed autographs and I got to shake his hand and talk to him for a while... in Italian!!! who would have thought he spoke Italian, eh?
I've had a soft spot for him ever since.
