Seriously? OMG! WTF?

According to The Sun, production has been halted on Sweeney Todd indefinitely because of Johnny Depp. Depp told them that he will not return to work until Lily-Rose is fully recovered. I am assuming because Depp is good friends with Tim Burton, that Burton will not recast the role and the movie won't resume until she is better. The crew was told that if Depp is not back by the weekend they will be laid off. A source told The Sun, “He does not want to come back until Lily-Rose gets the all-clear. The plan is to re-employ everybody when she is better.” Hopefully for all parties involved (especially Lily-Rose) she will be better real soon. 

I just have to say I really respect Johnny Depp for his decision. I respect him for putting his family first. I know there are people that will be losing money because of his decision, but sometimes we forget family comes first. Good for him for reminding us of that. Sadly it is under these circumstances.

Good news out of London as the Daily Mirror reports that Johnny Depp's little girl, Lily-Rose has left the hospital. The news broke Wednesday night that she was seriously ill and that Depp was not leaving her side. Then yesterday his publicist said she was doing better, but did not disclose her illness. Today it is reported that Depp carried her out of the hospital and took her back to his hotel! One onlooker said: "Johnny and Vanessa looked exhausted." Can you blame them?

Depp who is in London filming Sweeny Todd has Dreamworks on his side, "We've adjusted his schedule to fit in with his needs. Everybody's with them in good spirits."

His people also has a message for us, "The family greatly appreciates the continued support." I am so glad she is doing better!

HOLLYWOOD star Johnny Depp's seven-year-old daughter Lily-Rose was seriously ill in hospital last night. The devastated actor and his partner Vanessa Paradis, who also have a four-year-old son, John Jack, are keeping a round-the-clock vigil at Lily-Rose's bedside. She was rushed to a hospital in Britain nine days ago after suddenly falling ill. Details of her condition and exactly where she is being treated are being kept secret. A hospital source said: "Lily is a very sick little girl and Johnny has hardly left her side. It is heartbreaking for him to see her in this state. "She really is very poorly but he is a devoted dad and is spending as much time as he can with her." Depp, 43, has been using a staff entrance to get into the hospital and arriving in a blacked-out car with minders. The source said: "He has not asked for any special favours but just wants the best for his child, like any parent. It is such a difficult time for him but he is hanging in there for the sake of his daughter and the whole family is just praying that she gets better and is taking each day as it comes. "It's been an emotional rollercoaster for all of them and he's been worrying himself silly. He wouldn't wish this on anyone and has been finding it hard keeping it together." Depp, who has been shooting Sweeney Todd in Britain with Edward Scissorhands director Tim Burton, is a dedicated father who often talks about how his children have transformed his life.

Johnny Depp has changed for the better since he became a father, so  I really hope she gets better soon.

UPDATE: According to his publicist, “We are happy to report that their daughter is doing much better.   The family greatly appreciates the continued support and respect of their privacy.”
That is good to hear!
