As fans are undoubtedly aware, Johnny Depp has been a major film and television star for decades now. He did good work in the '80s, but once the 1990s rolled around, he turned into a powerhouse at the box office, and this is a trend that continued into the 2000s and beyond.

Depp has basically seen and done it all in the entertainment industry, and he has even branched out into doing things that are more personally rewarding. For instance, Depp's band, Hollywood Vampires, have cranked out some fun tunes, and the band is anchored by other huge stars, including shock rock legend Alice Cooper, and Joe Perry of Aerosmith theme.

Acting and personal matters will always be what steals the most headlines, and Depp has done this more than a few times since breaking out 35 years ago. The star has received plenty of coverage for numerous things, including his love life.

Barkin And Depp Got Close In 'Fear And Loathing In Las Vegas'

Ellen Barkin's time with Johnny Depp has been making waves lately, and the actress recently opened up about their former romance, even giving details about when things began between them.

"According to Barkin, she and Depp became friends in 1990 but ultimately, they got into a relationship, which was more of sexual nature than the romantic one in 1994. She reportedly said their “romance” lasted about 3-5 months and she “never heard from him again,” before also claiming that they “were romantically involved” when they worked together in the 1998 film ‘Fear & Loathing in Las Vegas.’ The film was shot on location in Las Vegas from August 3, 1997, and lasted 56 days," writes Meaww.

This is pretty typical in Hollywood, as many relationships start on the sets of movies. Even though Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas is known for being a chaotic flick, it is interesting to learn that this is when Depp and Barkin began their romantic relationship.

Another key part of her testimony that got people talking was the fact that she dished on Johnny Depp's jealousy.

Barkin said that Depp was "just a jealous man, controlling, where are you going, who are you going with. What did you do last night. I had a scratch on my back once that got him very, very angry because he insisted it came from having sex with a person who wasn't him.”
