Johnny Depp says kissing Keira Knightley was "awkward" - because she is so much younger than him.

The pair shared a smooch in 'Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest', but Johnny, 43, found it difficult to pucker up to Keira, 22, because of the big age gap between the two stars.

He said in an interview with New magazine: "The smooches are always so awkward, especially because Keira and I have never been in that kind of situation together. She's, like, three and I'm a thousand!

"We've known each other for a few years and suddenly it was, 'Are you ready for this?' And you just do it. It becomes more like a stunt in a way. She was a great sport about it."

Keira has previously revealed she begged director Gore Verbinski to add the kiss between Captain Jack Sparrow and her character Elizabeth Swann.

She said: "I was saying, 'Give me one kiss, just give me one kiss'.

"I got it and it was good, really good."



Johnny Depp arriving at Narita airport in Japan (05/22/07). He loves his jewelry.

When is he leaving that fug gf of his?!?!  I want this man bad!  lol

does he have any idea how many 22 year old girls want to mack down with him? me included!!!

ok, i love johnny depp, but he knows he looks fucking tacky right here, just look at his face.  you’re not that cool, mr. depp… unfortch, no one is.

& if i was keira i’d be campaining for that kiss too!

He is one incredibly handsome guy…I could just eat him up.  Hello Johnny…call me, I’m not 22.

Even though he’s sexy and hot and mature…he needs to stop his ultra homeless looks off set.

Homeboy looks like he dressed out of the airport Lost & Found.

LOVE LOVE LOVE HIM! MOWWWAH! Lucky Paradise! it’s not about just him being an extreamly handsome guy. He is different, talented, humble, attractive, lovely, a good father, a loyal partner…what else may one wish for?

Britney and Lindsay only wish they could look this good in a fedora.

I agree with Agent, he looks exactly like a homeless here. This outfit makes my pussy dry.

Hot Hot Hot.  This guy was hot way back in the day and still is.

His look in the above pics is tacky as sh*t, but all in all he is still beautiful!
I have to say if I were Keira I would have begged for that kiss as well. Then I would have kept making little bloopers or blunders so they would have to do lots and lots of retakes.

I wouldn’t care if he lived in a box and peed in a jar. He is still do-able…all the way.  He is a weird, sexy little man and I would kiss better than that stick Keira ever could.

His name should be Campbells…because he is mmm mmm GOOOOOODDDDD!!!lol
Man oh man what i’d do to him! HOT, HOT, HOT!

why would he want to kiss a damn board? Not only is she as flat as one but her being English ensures that she would be about as exciting as one too. Johnny Depp can get away with alot in my book. He’s been around and he has always been interesting, attractive, and coo. I can forgive his loyalty to the french ho and the french living crap.  He seems to love his kids and be a loyal guy to his woman. that’s sexy!

I know he probably still smokes like crazy, and I am not that crazy about ashtray breath, but I’d kiss him anyway. I’m 26! I’ll smooch ya!

LOL @ lolitaa!!!

Hey…doesn’t he wear all the jewelry or some of it because his daughter made it for him? It seems like I heard that somewhere. Just curious, because that is too sweet. Just makes him that much more appealing!

Im in love with him….pretty much like everyone else in this post…but I have to say keira you dont fucking deserve to kiss Johnny depp…..I hate you Keira you lucky lucky bitch I hate you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

hotter than Brad, definitely.

he is such a weirdo

oh…my god…he is SOOOOOOO hott and UNIQUE

GOD, i LOVE the way he dresses.

johnny isn’t typical!!! typical is BORING.

he isn’t afraid to dress however he wants and that is ADMIRABLE

once again…HOTHOTHOTTTTTTTTTTT

yea wtjo, his kids do make most of it for him, im pretty sure i read that somewhere too. he was wearing these really cute braclettes at the premier.
