Fairfax County, VA

It’s safe to say Johnny Depp has a superfan in French Montana. With the jury reaching a verdict in the trial between the actor and his ex-wife Amber Heard on Wednesday afternoon (June 1), reactions began to fly on social media.

The jury reportedly found Heard guilty of three counts of defamation in her 2018 op-ed for The Washington Post. Montana celebrated the verdict in favor of the Pirates of the Caribbean star.

“Haannn ! Johnny Depp for the win, city boyz up And He hosting the next coke boys 6 mixtape,” he wrote on Twitter.

French is also set to recruit Depp to make a guest appearance and play host on his upcoming Coke Boys 6 mixtape, which he’s been hard at work on for 2022.
