Jenna Ortega reacts hilariously to Johnny Depp dating suspicions in a new video interview.
Jenna Ortega responds appropriately to rumors of a romantic relationship with Johnny Depp.
In a video interview with BuzzFeed on August 26, the Beetlejuice star discussed a peculiar rumour.
When asked what the “craziest rumor” she’d heard about herself, the Wednesday star said, “Probably that I was in a serious relationship with Johnny Depp and I wanted everybody to leave us alone.”
“It’s so insane to me. I never said anything like that,” the 21-year-old admitted.
Jenna said, “I thought that was pretty hilarious.”
“I was on set with Richard E. Grant and he came up to me and he said, ‘Oh, so you and Johnny…’ and I laughed because I don’t know that person,” the actress from Miller’s Girl recounted.
For those unfamiliar, celebrity Instagram account DeuxMoi first linked Jenna to Johnny last year, but the Pirates of the Caribbean star’s management denied the claim.
Interestingly, both Jenna and Johnny are working with filmmaker Tim Burton on the impending Beetlejuice sequel.
During the conversation, Jenna also discussed her childhood celebrity crush.
Jenna responded: “My first crush was Barack Obama and it was during his first election and I was smitten.”
Meanwhile, the Fallout actress revealed which genre she hopes to explore in the future.
“I do love surreal stuff so anything kind of sci-fi I think is pretty cool,” said Jenna, adding, “I think it’s just an interesting script so I am invested in it.”
