According to the Mail, while signing autographs after the concert, Depp pointed to a child fan’s finger, saying, “You have five, I have four and seven eighths. Mad.” During Depp’s trial against his ex-wife, the actor testified, “She [Heard] had thrown a bottle of vodka and cut my finger off.” The Twitterati reacted to Depp’s joke. One tweet asked, “Not appropriate. Can’t talk about balloons?” A trial viewer tweeted, “I don’t think Depp is that innocent. Both Heard & Depp can use some individual therapy.” While Depp made light of all the courtroom drama, some experts claim the trial was no laughing matter.
