The interview by Stephen Rodrick reveals that Johnny welcomed the reporter over the course of three nights by showing off "two equal piles of tobacco and hash" — but doesn't get started on his drugs before saying: "Well, let's drink some wine first." Later, Depp complained about claims in a lawsuit about how much he spends each month on booze, saying "it's insulting to say that I spent $30,000 on wine. Because it was far more."

But even though Johnny takes time in the interview to mourn his recently deceased friend Tom Petty, Johnny doesn't say anything about changing his hard-drinking ways — even as recent photos show him looking shockingly thin! He's also been accompanied by bodyguards looking ready to hold him up since the Nov. 2017 premiere of "Murder on the Orient Express."

“Everyone thought he’d been drinking,” said a shocked spywitness. Another source said that friends fear Johnny's brutal divorce from Amber Heard had left him "heartbroken, and with a death wish!"

Dr. Stuart Fischer, who hasn't treated Johnny, told The ENQUIRER just days before the Rolling Stone interview that the 55-year-old star's “cadaverous” look has him “showing signs of liver failure!” Dr. Fischer added: “Due to alcohol and drug abuse, anything could happen to his liver — including complete shutdown!”

Insiders, however, say that Johnny still has one shot at getting sober — thanks to rock star Alice Cooper looking out for his guitarist in the Hollywood Vampires! "Alice can't be babysitting Johnny," says an insider, "but you can be sure that he'll never show up drunk for a Hollywood Vampires show. He knows that Alice would throw him right off the stage!"
