Thumbs up Johnny Depp pays surprise visit to school

Johnny Depp made a surprise visit to a 9 year old girl who wrote a letter to Capt. Jack Sparrow to ask for help in starting a mutiny against the teachers. He was filming near by and decided to stop by in full costume.

He has always come across as a really good guy and it is good to read something like this, he did it for nothing more then to make kids smile.

Well that doesn't seem fair I dressed up like a pirate and went to see kids in a school and they called the cops.

Celebrities get all the breaks

Well thats because you didn't follow the code, and demand the right of parlay before you entered the school.

The girls note promised that they had lots of rum. False advertising!

When celebrities take time out of their days to enrich their young admiring fans in manners such as this, it brings a smile to my face.

I love that Depp did this not out of contractural obligation, but because he wanted too. There isn't a soul in that class that will forget that day in their lives. It's unfortunate that he still required heavy security, but not surprising given his superstar, god-like celebrity status.

Dear Shakira:

Will you come to my office and join my mutiny against my co-workers?

Yours truly,

By all accounts he sounds like one of the coolest guys in hollywood. Between this story, huge tips he gives at restaurants and the $2 mill donation he gave to the nurses who cared for his daughter, reality stars and socialites could learn a lot from him on being a proper human being.
