Johnny Depp‘s career has already been marred by the long and dramatic divorce battle with his ex-wife Amber Heard. Though Heard made numerous allegations of all kinds against the actor, he has managed to come clean. However, Herad is not the only person who has complaints against him. Another well-known name has come forward, expressing grievances with the actor.
Actress Lola Glaudini has recently brought forth allegations against Johnny Depp, accusing him of verbally abusing her during the filming of the 2001 movie ‘Blow’. However, representatives for Depp are vehemently denying these claims.

“Now Can You Shut Up?”: Lola Glaudini Recalls Her Horrifying Experience On First Day On Sets
In a recent interview on the ‘Powerful Truth Angels’ podcast earlier this year, Lola Glaudini recalled an incident where she claimed Johnny Depp berated her for laughing during one of his takes on set. Glaudini was a background player at the time and explained that she was instructed by director Ted Demme to laugh when Depp delivered a particular line.
But when she followed the director’s instructions and laughed as she had done in previous takes, Depp exploded in anger and verbally abused her. As per Galudini, Depp came to her after she laughed, stuck a finger in her face, and said: “Who the f— do you think you are? Who the f— do you think you are? Shut the f— up.”
“I’m out here, and I’m trying to f—ing say my lines and you’re f—ing pulling focus. You f—ing idiot. Oh, now, oh now it’s not so funny? Now you can shut up? Now you can f—ing shut the f— up? The quiet that you are right now, that’s how you f—ing stay,’” she recalled him as saying.
Glaudini asserted that it was her first day on set and she barely knew him. “First day, on the set, I’ve never met him,” she added. “This was my first studio movie, I’ve just done indies until then. And I have the star who I have idolized, who I am so excited to work with, reamed me in my face. The only thing going through my head was, ‘Don’t cry, don’t cry, don’t cry.’

Johnny Depp’s Representatives Deny Lola Glaudini’s Claims
Johnny Depp’s representatives were contacted for comments after the revelation, and they have denied the claims as false and disputed Glaudini’s version of events. The representative also asserted that Depp values good working relationships with the cast and crew. They also referenced the recollection of a crew member, Sam Sarkar, who worked on ‘Blow‘ in the sound department.
Sarkar stated that he never heard any such altercation between Depp and Glaudini though he was constantly monitoring of audio on set. “I worked on that movie in the sound department,” Sarkar said.
“As a sound person, you’re constantly listening to what is going on on set, listening for noises, listening for chatter. In fact, specifically, I would listen to Johnny’s audio to check for interference, both during rehearsals and during the take. I never heard anything like that — and that would have been a remarkable event,” he added.
Glaudini further claimed that Depp issued a “non-apology apology” after the incident, but she chose to act as if nothing had happened on the advice of her father. However, she alleged that she was treated poorly by others on set after the incident.
