This year, Johnny Depp and Amber Heard’s scandalous defamation case trial kept Hollywood entertained.Â
Disgraced Actress Amber Heard Becomes Most-Googled Celebrity Of 2022-‘She Went On A Google Search For Herself,’ Says Observer
Even more intriguing, the trials were broadcast live, drawing even more attention. According to a recent study by CelebTattler, Amber has become the most-searched celebrity on Google as a result of all the publicity.
Aquaman star Heard was the most-searched celebrity of 2022, with 5.6 million searches per month in the United States. Johnny Depp, her former husband, was second, with 5.5 million searches.
In an official statement on behalf of CelebTattler, a representative said the following: “This year has certainly not been lacking when it comes to celebrity news stories, whether it be Elon Musk taking over Twitter or the Don’t Worry Darling behind-the-scenes drama.”
This should not come as a surprise, as it suggests that Amber was being subjected to mass publicity even if a majority of it has been on the negative side. In addition, Depp’s popularity by contrast skyrocketed as he even took to the music scene with performances alongside Jeff Beck in the aftermath of the case.Â
Other stars who made the list included Elon Musk, Tom Brady, Pete Davidson and the late Queen Elizabeth II. According to the data collected by Google, there were reportedly 4.3 million searches for Britain’s late queen, the longest-serving monarch after reigning the throne for over seven decades, each month.
The fans on social media could not help but troll Heard. And in the process of doing so, they mocked the fact that she was so desperate to paint a certain narrative about her life with Depp.
One person wrote: “She wanted to know what the world was reporting and thinking about her abusive personality and she went on a google search for herself every minute of the trial.”
They do say that all publicity is good publicity, but for Amber, there may be an exception. So there you have it folks. What did you think about this? Let us know your thoughts in the comments section below.
