Swashbuckling star of Pirates of the Caribbean Johnny Depp expressed his annoyance with the spying paparazzi when he and his family arrived at the airport in Nice, France.

It should come as no surprise, since Johnny's long since been opposed to media interest in his personal life and even owns an island retreat known to him and his lady love Vanessa Paradis call "Fuck Off Island."

Somehow, it carries more impact when Depp does it than an angry Phoebe Price.

And just because I was feeling nostalgic, here are a few of my favorite posts featuring bird-flipping stars:

Well, I was in the Nice airport last year in May and it was packed with photogs. They are always there, especially in the summer, just like the paps are at LAX, Heathrow and other large airports where stars are likely to land. This isn't Angelina's fault.

Oh, sorry . . . I forgot. EVERYTHING is Angelina Jolie's fault. I'll try to remember that from now on. Will save me responding to stupid posts on message boards.

Sorry, had to do it again with the corrected version.

When it comes to celebs that go out on a limb to protect their family, I think paps and the tabs should respect that. Johnny has showed time and time again, over the years that his private life is off limit. He hasn't pimped his private life or his children out to the press and he's not likely to do that.

He is not narcissistic nor seeks attention or accolade like greedylina. He is a family man first, an actor second and he's very good at both and protected both with vigor, class and dignity. That's why people loves, respects and adore him. And he's a damn good actor too. He lets his craft declares him. And yes I love Johnny!

Nice was a nice and quiet little place b4 bradgelina, their notoriety for attention and their press conferences. Brandgelina brought their circus to town/nice and no one is safe anymore!! Shows, you can take some people out of trash but you can't take trash out of them. They make trash of wherever they go. Johnny run, run, run for your peace and freedom, stay very far and away from bradgelina!!

I wish he'd give ME the finger...

It's funny that the Beckham's kid would flick the paps off. Does he know that's how his mummy and daddy make money? Without them, the public wouldn't know who the hell those two fools were.

LMAO at your comment, mslewis. EVERYTHING is Angie's fault! Isn't that the truth? I'm so sick of the jealous and ignorant comments hurled at this woman who has done NOTHING to deserve them! Give it up, haters. You're really sounding insane.

Also, I think Brad and Angie should just stop being nice about it. I think they should start giving the finger, too! Also, I think they should consider pressing charges. ENOUGH is ENOUGH!!!!

As has been said, Johnny has never tried to pimp out his family or children and is fiercely protective of their privacy. In the proper setting for publicity such as premieres, etc, he is very friendly and generous, always greeting the fans and signing autographs longer than most. No true fan is going to be bothered by Johnny giving the paps the finger!

July 29, 2008 9:48 AM

Debra/Sue/whoever - Angelina and Brad have a deal with the paps where they get half the profits from the sale of their staged pap shots. That is how they afford the enormous estate in France, all the new furniture, all the new nannies for the children etc. Can you be any more naive and stupid? If they gave the paps the finger they'd be fucking off their business associates who help them make millions out of doing nothing but standing there and allowing themselves to be photographed. They really aren't the selfless saints you think they are - they're the biggest media manipulators and players out there. Get a clue!

July 29, 2008 10:15 AM

LMFAO! Brad & AJ wouldn't give the paps the time of day. They are worth together about 1/2 a billion dollars they don't need paparazzi chump change.

Rosa needs proofreading lessons. Horrible post.

Whatever -

You're an idiot. Pitt & Jolie are in cahoots with the pappies and get half on all picutres they sell? Dear God, you haters have really gone over the cliff! Pitt and Jolie can afford their lifestyle because contrary to the misinformed Forbes magazine, they're hella paid! ROTFL. The Forbes had Jolie listed at $14MIL for June 2007-June 2008 when in fact she made over twice that - $15MIL for Wanted and $15MIL for Changeling. In 2006 Forbes reported Brad Pitt's income at $20MIL for M&MS the previous year when in fact Pitt had a $20MIL + backend deal with participation in DVD sales and rentals and all merchandising that paid him nearly $100MIL. Nevermind the fact that between them they made over $20MIL in foreign endorsement deals last year and the year before. So disabuse yourself of the notion that they need to cooperate with the paps for measly little $20,000 pictures like Lindsey Lohan was doing. The paps don't get enough for their photos to pay for ONE nanny, let alone 3, ya moron. And in case you forgot, if they were as strapped for cash as you claim, they'd keep that ridiculous amount of money they'll get for pictures of their twins instead of giving it to charity. Get your head out of your butt. Not everybody works at Wal-mart like you do!

Yes! Is there a crop that failed somewhere? I'm sure Angelina is responsible for the flooding in the Midwest. whatever how is Johnny paying for his massive place in France, his humongous house in L.A. and his private island in the Caribbean.

That is the sexiest 'bird flip' I have ever laid eyes on. Mmmmm.

@whatever:
That definitely does make sense, considering Brad's recent lawsuit, how the lawyers sent letters out to so many different venues, some of wich never even have posted pics of them! And the paps have taken these types of photos of them at their California homes, and they didn't sue over that. I'd say the reason being these recent photographs were probably taken by a group of paps they did not have any deals with! All makes sense! Geedy pieces of shit they are! They really area whoring those poor children out! I do hope depp is not only blaming the paps, but is blaming them as well! Sometimes you shouldn't defend your fellow actor!
