Johnny Depp still hasn’t flown back to the US to await the verdict in his libel trial against Amber Heard, as he appeared on stage in the UK for a second night.  The Pirates of the Caribbean actor performed at Jeff Beck’s show at London’s Royal Albert Hall on Monday after joining the musician at his gig in Sheffield the previous evening. Photos have emerged of Depp, 58, strumming his electric guitar and singing into the microphone during his second unannounced appearance. At the end of the show, he was seen smiling and clapping towards the audience. On Sunday, he performed alongside Beck at Sheffield City Hall much to the surprise of audience members who weren’t expecting him to pop up on the UK tour. During the show, Depp and Beck sang their 2020 song Isolation, a remake of John Lennon’s 1970 hit. The Edward Scissorhands actor, who is also part of the band Hollywood Vampires with Alice Cooper and Joe Perry, also performed a couple of other covers, with he and Beck rocking out to Marvin Gay’s What’s Going On and Jimi Hendrix’s Little Wing.Many expected Depp to remain in Fairfax, Virginia where the bombshell libel trial has played out for more than a month, and where a verdict is imminent. Depp is suing ex-wife Heard over a 2018 article she wrote for The Washington Post, in which she detailed her experience of domestic abuse.

Kim Kardashian and Pete Davidson apparently didn’t want to miss out on all the Jubilee fun as the couple have jetted over to London this week. Hours after posting very PDA-heavy videos on social media, the lovebirds randomly popped up in west London on Monday evening where they were seen heading for a cosy dinner. The couple couldn’t wipe the smiles off their faces as they strolled into the restaurant holding hands. Kim, 41, dressed casually in a cropped black hoodie and skintight Balenciaga boot leggings – similar to the Barbie pink version she wore in California over the weekend – while her bleached blonde hair was scraped into a messy bun. Former Saturday Night Live comedian Pete, 28, matched her laid back attire as he donned a plaid shirt, T-shirt and barbour-style jacket with jeans and trainers. He was also sporting bleach blonde hair like his girlfriend, having recently gone under the bottle. Once inside the restaurant, the couple were seen having a chit-chat at their table near the window, while Pete sipped what appeared to be a large glass of coke. They were later chauffeur driven away from the restaurant and appeared to get a little camera shy with Pete hiding his face with his hand from the camera while Kim smiled coyly.
