Phoenix warned Depp to steer clear of an obsessive fan




On the 13th anniversary of friend River Phoenix’s death, Johnny Depp conducted a séance with the help of celebrity psychic Kenny Kingston (Phoenix died on Halloween night 1993 from a drug-induced heart failure outside the Viper Room club Depp once owned). According to Kingston, Phoenix warned Depp to steer clear of an obsessive fan.

“He fears for Johnny Depp. He said that Johnny must watch out for someone with a vicious temper. “He said, ‘Danger lies in the shadows.’ “I get the impression he was talking about an obsessed fan.”

Don’t you think the top executives at Disney are shitting their pants right now? Pretty much the only way ‘The Pirates of the Caribbean‘ franchise won’t continue to make ridiculous money for the next 20 years is if Depp starts pulling this Tom Cruise act. I wouldn’t be surprised if, the next time Depp shows up on set, someone jumps out the bushes with a blowgun and shoots him with a tranquilizing dart. They could probably squeeze another 50 million out of ‘Dead Man’s Chest‘ over the next few months if they just kept Depp in a room away from the influencing forces of celebrity psychics.
