Katt Williams made some explosive revelations on the Club Shay Shay podcast, stirring up controversy by exposing shady dealings in the industry. However, his bold move didn’t go unnoticed, and he faced significant backlash as a result. Now, it appears Johnny Depp is coming to his defense, calling out the unfair treatment and signaling that he’s ready to support Katt through the storm. Apparently, Depp is even dropping hints about the possible reasons behind the backlash. It’s definitely heating up.
