Johnny Depp’s Band Faces Boycott in Sweden After Amber Heard’s Abuse Allegations

As Johnny Depp’s band The Hollywood Vampires is on a European concert tour, a social media campaign has just been launched to boycott the band’s Monday night appearance in Stockholm, Sweden due to wife Amber Heard’s allegations of domestic abuse, Daily Mail reports.

The boycott comes after Heard filed for divorce and then filed for a domestic violence restraining order just days later, claiming that Depp had smashed her face with a cell phone during an argument.

Heard was filmed leaving a Los Angeles court room with visible bruises on her face and claimed that Depp inflicted abuse on her throughout their marriage.

Although Depp’s lawyers have strongly denied Heard’s claims of violence and his daughter Lily-Rose Depp has spoken up in his defense, some fans in Stockholm are not happy he and his band will be performing there.

Set to perform at the Gröna Lund theme park, The Local reports angry fans have taken to social media and asked for a response from the park, posting on its Facebook page, “Are you taking a stand against this, Gröna Lund?”

Theme park spokesperson Annika Troselius told The Local, “Of course we renounce all violence. However, it is just as important not to judge people beforehand and that you are innocent until proven guilty.”

Troselius also said that by 10 am, there were already lines outside the door and encouraged attendees to arrive early because they were expecting a crowd.
