Damn It, Johnny

Really, Mr. Depp? Really?
Despite being one of the world’s most handsome men, Johnny Depp hates photo shoots so much, he compares them to violent sexual assault. He tells Nick Tosches in Vanity Fair, “Well, you just feel like you’re being raped somehow. Raped ... It feels like a kind of weird -- just weird, man.” He’ll pose with fans, “But whenever you have a photo shoot or something like that, it’s like -- you just feel dumb. It’s just so stupid.
 Shakesville sums it up concisely:
No, Mr. Depp. Sitting for a photo shoot to which you have consented does not feel like being raped.
What a privilege you have to not know what a terrible comparison that truly is.

UPDATE: J. Depp has since apologized (as expected and as he should) for his "poor choice of words." Words matter, Johnny-boy. Also, what Melissa says.
