Shuffling along the streets of London’s Soho with his head bowed, draped in scruffy clothes and battered shoes splattered in paint, Johnny Depp is invisible to hordes of his fans every day.
The craggy 61-year-old – who also sports brown teeth rotted by years of boozing and smoking – has embraced his new life as a “bohemian artist” in Britain so dramatically he is now barely recognizable to the crowds that rush by him in the bustling city, RadarOnline.com can reveal.
A source said: “Johnny usually causes a stir wherever he goes – but not in London.
Source: MEGADepp, 61, is now barely recognizable as he walks the Soho streets with his head down and clothes splattered in paint.
“He’s been holed up in a townhouse in Soho for months and now calls himself an ‘Anglophile’.
“And he basically dresses like a tramp to avoid any attention.
“He’s regularly spotted in Soho with a massive hat hiding his face and in clothes and shoes that just make him look like one of the city’s hobos.
“His teeth are brown as h— now due to his smoking, and he’s always seen with a bit of a ridiculous cigarillo hanging out of mouth.
“Because there are so many oddball characters in Soho, he just passes by thousands of people every day on his walks to pick up paints and supplies without anyone asking him for so much as an autograph or a selfie.”
The insider added Depp “loves the anonymity”.

They said: “Londoners are used to seeing famous folk and aren’t known for getting particularly hysterical, but the city is also packed with tourists who would get excited.
“But even they don’t recognize him – and he loves his new life.”
We can reveal Depp has been living in London for the last six months – and has been splashing a huge chunk of his $210million fortune renting a trendy townhouse in the city’s Soho district.
The garden of the property is kitted out with a studio where he paints and writes music.
A source said: “There have been some grumblings about the level of noise as Johnny loves to crank up his tunes when he’s painting and his amp when he’s on his guitar, but the residents who know he’s there love the idea they are living next to a Hollywood icon.”
A Depp representative denied he is causing any noise complaints.
The actor has put on a string of exhibitions of his art in London and his favorite haunts include the Cipriani restaurant in Mayfair.
Depp has also been having late night parties at his pad with Mackenzie Crook, 52 – his former co-star from the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise.

Our source said: “Johnny and Mackenzie may seem like an odd pairing, but they both love film, directing and music and jam in Depp’s house.”
Along with his set of celebrity pals in England, who include the family of his late guitarist friend Jeff Beck, Depp has been living it up in London with his new – and much younger – girlfriend.
Two years after his high-profile defamation trial that erupted in the wake of his bitter divorce from Amber Heard, he’s now dating 28-year-old Russian beautician and model Yulia Vlasova.
The pair first met in 2021 and even though insiders say their relationship is currently “casual”, friends think he is getting “more and more serious” about the blonde.
