She Was Scared Of Him

man angry 14[Blind Gossip] This actress is debating whether to come forward and talk about her own experiences with an actor who is being accused of physical aggression towards another woman.

[Actress] had her own bad experiences with him years ago. [Actor] was physically abusive towards her, too. She was definitely scared of him back then. We would tell her to report him, but she would always chicken out and blame it on the drugs or alcohol and then he would say how sorry he was and promise it wouldn’t happen again. Of course it always did.

She made us promise to keep it a secret. She didn’t want to be known for ruining his career (or her own career). We just followed her lead. Even now she is scared of what would happen to her if she said anything.

    Actor: Johnny Depp
    Actress: Winona Ryder

    She should absolutely speak out. Not only is it something that she needs to do for herself, but Amber is being torn apart by his people and fans and it isn’t right.

    • TheSalmon says

      I think you’re right. He was with her when he smashed up that room at The Plaza, wasn’t he?
      I know there were many many rumors that he was violent with Kate Moss, but she’s not an actress. She has always refused to talk about him, though, which is its own clue.

    • NativeAtlantaGirl says

      Never had a violent person in my life…is it possible that someone can have a violent temper but control it never to raise a hand to another? (I’m an only child – never gotten into a physical altercation – never hit/pushed a soul in my life)

  2. SouthJerseyGirl says

    Actor is Johnny Depp. Not sure of the actress but if she does come forward, his PR team will find some way to discredit her and make her look like she’s lying.

  7. wattawatta says

    Actor: Johnny Depp, obviously

    Actress: Winona Ryder maybe?

    I think she’s established herself enough that she can publicly admit that he’s abusive. As opportunistic as Amber Heard was when she married Depp, it’s disgusting how many people are accusing her of faking bruises.

  8. CelebrityGirl says

    Actor: Johnny Depp

    Actress: Winona Ryder

    [Optional] If you were part of her team, would you advise her to speak out now or to stay out of it? Speak out as a credible second source so he can stop abusing women.

    Actor: Johnny Depp
    Actress: Jennifer Grey

    “chicken out” and “follow her lead” clues from Dirty Dancing.

    • Endoracat says

      But those clues were within the quote, not by Ace. So I don’t think it’s her.

    • JenLTX says

      When she chickens out about the leap in the dance routine. And in answer to Endoracat, I thought that at first, too, but there’ve been other blinds that have a quote with clues, too, so I figured I’d give it a try!

    • DrunkyMcPuncherson says

      Winona Ryder and Jennifer Grey are the only actresses that make sense, and I think you are spot on with the clues.

    • AJlala says

      I think you’re right with Jennifer Grey too! If it were Winona Ryder (whose career was pretty decent in its own right) she would’ve played the victim card when she got caught shoplifting. Jennifer Grey’s career is dead in the water so she needs something to get her name back in the papers.

    • Arianna1 says

      I like this guess. I didn’t guess myself because I could only think of Winonabut, it said the woman has a career. Winona’s career was over after she was caught shoplifting, so I do think this is Jennifer Grey.

  10. iknewit says

    Johnny Depp and Winona Ryder.

    I think all his exes have experienced his rages. They should get together and out him.

  11. jami123 says

    Winona Rider (spelling?)

    Johnny Depp

    Its tough to say of course I am against violence and feel it should be reported, but I can also see how this could ruin both careers. Either way that is a sad situation.

    • fiddlesticks says

      she was done for shop lifting. That would seem worse for her career than if she was beaten.

  12. Camila says

    Johnny Depp
    Winona Ryder
    I would advise her to stay out of it. She’ll just be acused of being bitter and wanting some revenge or whatever. People would ask why she didn’t say anything before and all that.

  13. Mattdsgirl says

    Actor: Johnny Depp
    Actress: Winona Ryder

    Optional: Stay out of it. Sounds like a huge mess that has absolutely nothing to do with her. Unless she really cares about him and wants to offer help. Or she needs to drum up some attention for herself.

    • tellmemore says

      Why would she possibly help the man who abused her, now that he’s allegedly abusing another woman?

  14. scriptguy says

    Johnny Depp

    Winona Ryder

    I would say expose him. But I’m not a publicist. I’m sure they’ll tell her to keep her mouth shut.

  17. heartcouture says

    Johnny Depp
    Winona Ryder

    Speak on it if he abused you. Don’t let him play the victim like he’s doing.

  20. spunkie brewster says

    Johnny Depp
    Jennifer Grey, Juliette Lewis, Winona Ryder or maybe Sherilyn Fenn? None of them have big careers currently, each could be easily derailed

    • kimbers says

      Juliette Lewis has had a long running career. She’s an amazing actress and is always working. She very well could be the blind.

  21. ricwash says

    Actor: Johnny Depp

    Actress: Winona Ryder

    [Optional] If you were part of her team, would you advise her to speak out now or to stay out of it? Although I am generally against a dog pile, in legal matters I am a big believer in telling the truth if you know it to be true. The drugs and alcohol have been exacerbating his violent streak for years, and that should come out.

  23. 2BEAUCOUP says

    METH-MOUTH,LEARNED DENTAL HYGIENE FROM KIETH R.

    JENNIFER GREY’S NOSE JOB DUE TO A BEATING……………IT RUINED HER CAREER.

    IF TRUE,GURL,YOU SHOUT IT OUT.

    • 2BEAUCOUP says

      I meant to add,
      Jennifer,if you see this….
      You were and always will be the beautiful girl of many young boys’dreams!!!!!!

  29. Gemza says

    Johnny Depp and Winona Ryder

    I wish she would come forward, but after seeing the level of hate Amber is getting I understand her reluctance.

  30. KlaireBear says

    This is clearly about Johnny Depp but as far as the actress, I’m not sure, maybe Winona Rider?

    • KlaireBear says

      Also she should definitely speak up. Poor Amber is being torn apart by the media and people that don’t know either one of them.. Nobody knows for sure what happened except them and this whole blame the victim thing is disgusting me.

    • spikelb says

      Blame the victim? She is the one who called 911, she is the one that initially refused to let them in, she is the one that refused to file a police report, she is the one releasing the pictures, that were not taken while the LAPD was present, to the media, she is the one that has filed for divorce and you better believe she will be the one going after his 400 million after 15 months of marriage. Sorry but who exactly is blaming her? This seems like a very well planned set of circumstances.

    • CindyLoo says

      Calm down Spike, you have thrown quite a few whoppers into quite a small space.

      A witness, not Heard called 911. Depp’s bodyguards were the ones that tried to send the cops away. Heard has filed a report. Bruises come out 6 to 24 hours after being inflicted. Depp’s $400 Mil is not on the table and never will be. Some small part the income earned during the 15 months is. That has always been the case. CA is a no fault divorce state. Abuse does not enter into the calculation.

      Go home now…

  31. mommagoosed says

    This actress’ team ABSOLUTELY needs to encourage and assist her with coming forward with her story. Like or dislike Amber Heard, every abused woman needs extra strength during this type of situation, especially from those with similar experiences. There’s a validation that is crucial to recovery from abuse, regardless of type.

  32. frizzymayhem says

    Jonny Depp
    Winona Ryder

    If it happened he should be reported by everyone it’s happened. No excuses for abuse of any kind.

  33. peppermint twist says

    Kate Moss and Johnny. If I was her I would say nothing at this point, especially now its looking like Amber lied through her teeth. There is no evidence Johnny abused Amber and maybe he was violent back in the day but people are capable of change and also not every alcoholic drug abuser is a women beater, they are mutually inclusive

  34. poppysmummy says

    Definately Winona Ryder. She always looked so sad when she was with him.

    Optional: yes I would advise to speak out- what can he do now the public eye is so squarely on him?

  39. cocolily says

    Winona Ryder

    This would be a good way to become relevant again for her & also explain alot of her weird behaviour.

  40. KimiD123 says

    I’m thinking its Winona and Johnny. She’s just starting to get back into movies (It seems)

    What I can’t understand is have people forgotten that this isn’t out of scope for him? He used to get violent and trash hotel rooms while fighting with Kate Moss! This may be Johnny when he’s using.
    The letter Vanessa wrote may very well be her truth – if he was clean while they were together and he wasn’t aggressive then of course she would have no experiences to mirror the ones being reported.

    • Arisia says

      It drives me crazy to see people accusing Heard of lying to get Johnny’s money based on Vanessa’s little note. Doesn’t it ever occur to people that money going to Heard is not going to go to Paradis and her children? Why would anyone think Vanessa Paradis has no motivation to lie?

    • Mildly interested says

      I think everyone who stands to make (or lose) money out of this has a motivation to lie. Including Amber. But I also think there’s a world of difference between smashing furniture and smashing someone’s face. Yes, both are aggressive, but only one is assault, and that’s the one people will hate him for if it turns out to be true.

  42. JenJenJen says

    Johnny Depp and my guess is Winona Ryder for the actress.
    This is tough question to answer but if it helps another person, she needs to come out with her story.

  44. nonsequiturchica says

    Actor: johnny depp

    Actress: Kate Moss? Winona Ryder?

    Optional- Yes I would tell her to speak up. There is solidarity in numbers and now that she isn’t the only one, it shouldn’t damage her career.

  48. kermit1969 says

    Actress Jennifer Grey clue “follow her lead” Dirty Dancing”

    Johnny Depp is the actor

  50. emster says

    Johnny Depp
    Winona Ryder
    I think the right thing to do would be to speak out since it could help Amber. But Winona also has the risk of being sued for slander and having her career ruined so I can understand why she won’t say anything now.

  57. algarve2016 says

    Actor: Johnny Depp

    Actress: Winona Ryder

    Optional: I’d tell her to speak out now. The truth is important.

  60. nc2txprincess says

    Johnny Depp
    Winona Ryder
    No one will believe her. He’s freaking Johnny Depp but she should tell her story so Amber Heard doesn’t sound like a villain.

  61. LilGator says

    Jennifer Grey and Johnny Depp. They were engaged. The clue being “followed her lead” a la Dirty Dancing.

  64. PriveNom says

    Actor: J Depp
    Actress: Winona Ryder

    Keep it on the QT unless it becomes a legal matter & prosecutor needs to establish a pattern of abuse.

  65. TracieKnits says

    Is that what messed up Winona Ryder’s life and career? Dang.

    Speak, woman. Get it out. It will be terrifying but you will feel stronger when it’s over.

  67. RedGirl77 says

    Winona Ryder
    Johnny Depp

    I think she should come forward. It’s the right thing to do. She’s not going to gain anything by doing it so it will only be seen as “it happened to me too.” Amber’s getting slammed. I’d want someone to do that for me.

  71. Dancing with Mr D says

    Johnny Depp and one of his various fiancees in the past?
    Winona Ryder? Jennifer Gray?

  72. sunshinestar says

    Winona Ryder – speak up, this kind of behavior should have been reported a long time ago.

  73. Luciddream328 says

    Jennifer Grey. Clue being, “We just followed her lead.” She was in Dirty Dancing.

    • Luciddream328 says

      Also I just noticed the cover photo for this blind is all gray. Another hint!

  76. Justmyself says

    We all know this is about Depp.
    I think she should just keep quiet at this point. Not many buy into Heards alligations. The time to be speaking up is when it happens and not years after the fact. At this point, most people including myself will just assume someone is needing publicity.

    Tired of crimes being tried in the court of public opinion and not in actual court where they belong.

  79. bostonbratt says

    Actor- Johnny Depp
    Actress- Winona Ryder , Sherylyn Fenn or any of the actresses he dated

  82. Arshes says

    Winona Ryder. If she says anything guaranteed people are bring up her shop lifting past and her career is nil to none so its understandable that she may not come foward. And of course this is about Jonny Depp.

  85. bananas says

    Winona Ryder might be worried about further screwing her career. They were turbulent.

  87. feedthebirds says

    Actor: Johnny Depp
    Actress: Wynona Rider

    I’d stay out of it. They would just rehash her shoplifting history.

  91. arvi1991 says

    Winona Ryder….She has nothing to lose by speaking out because her career is in the dumpster anyway.

  95. neartstarlet says

    Actor: Johnny Depp

    Actress: Winona Rider (the blind screams “The Crucible” to me for some reason)

    [Optional] If you were part of her team, would you advise her to speak out now or to stay out of it?: speak out. Domestic violence is not ok, and the more people who come out as victims bring the issue to the forefront.

  97. CyndiTx123 says

    Johnny Depp and Winona Ryder… I would tell her to stay out of it…. Wait till she is older and write a book about her life and also when she was in the habit of stealing from department stores…. That would be a good read.

  98. theblacktights says

    I thought I’d read somewhere that Winona Ryder has also alluded to J Depp being abusive towards her or having temper/drug
    abuse issues at the very least, which ultimately caused the demise of their relationship.

    If it’s her, and she’s considering coming forward, I say do it. I don’t think it would effect her career and if Amber IS telling the truth about him abusing her, Winona coming forward would really help prosecutors (and the public) believe her.

  99. rcaraway says

    Actor: Johnny Depp
    Actress: Jennifer Grey

    I would have to tell her to do what she thinks is best for her. It would help clear the air of any speculation of whether this is a play for money or revenge if she did speak out. That said, she doesn’t have much to gain personally, but might have a lot to lose if it goes badly…people accusing her of trying to get air time or other personal gain from speaking out. This one is sticky.
