When it comes to celebrities in theme parks, such as Disney World or Disneyland, we tend to see them get expert treatment.
Whenever celebrities visit theme parks, they tend to nearly take them over. Not only will security be all over the parks, but they will have massive fan huddles trying to follow them, and they will be able to skip every line due to their status to protect their safety.
One example of this is with the Kardashians, who frequent the Disney Parks often and tend to cause quite the scene. The Kardashian family (Keeping Up With the Kardashians) are known for being Hollywood reality TV sensations. Still, it seems that the clan really loves Mickey Mouse as much as the typical Disney fan!
The family has celebrated many kids’ birthdays there in the past. Kim Kardashian and Kanye West are particularly familiar with the park since they have not only celebrated their daughter, North’s, birthday there, but they have experienced multiple VIP tours! We recently spotted Kylie Jenner at Disneyland with what looked to be a secret Guest and two children.
If it were our guess, we would likely assume that one of the children would be Stormi Webster, Kylie’s daughter, and the gentleman with her could be Stormi’s father, Travis Scott.
In the past, the Kardashians skipped a line at Disneyland, and when Guests noticed, they were infuriated. A recent TikTok shared both Kim Kardashian and Khloe Kardashian skipping the line for Mad Tea Party at Disneyland. Not only did they skip the line, but they also made other Guests wait so that they could ride alone.
This instance was caught on camera and went viral, with many Disney fans upset by this blatant disrespect to the other Guests who have been waiting to ride.
Recently, Kim Kardashian was once again spotted at Disneyland. Although it is likely that the family is not looking to ruin the experience of others, shutting down an attraction so that they can ride alone while everyone who has been waiting in line watches is not the best look, and gives off a selfish impression.
Both Disneyland and Walt Disney World seem to be a hotspot for celebrities. In addition to Chris Evans and Kylie Jenner, we at Inside the Magic also spotted Julianne Hough (Dancing With the Stars, Footloose, Safe Haven), Darren Criss (Glee, Muppets Haunted Mansion), and Kristen Chenoweth (Descendants, Annie, Wicked) filming outside Cinderella Castle in Magic Kingdom for the Disney Parks Magical Christmas Day Celebration, in the past.
Another massive celebrity who has recently been accused of taking over Disneyland is Taylor Swift.
But what about Johnny Depp? Johnny Depp is certainly present at Disney World, Disneyland, and every Disney park thanks to his character of Jack Sparrow being seen in the Pirates of the Caribbean attraction, as well as a meet and greet character. Although it does not seem that Depp frequents the theme parks often to receive special treatment, there is a way that fans can use his name to feel like a celebrity of their own.
Now, this will not help you get on Space Mountain quicker or get you a private showing of Happily Ever After, but it can ensure that your food delivery meals are always pristine, according to one TikToker.
It seems that it is becoming a trend on social media to remove your real name when ordering a pizza, and replace it with a celebrity to see if the food quality and appearance looks better than usual. One Johnny Depp fan has been using this with the Pirates of the Caribbean actor’s name. The TikToker seems to do this often when ordering Domino’s Pizza.
“Every time I order pizza it’s made without care. So I order now as a celebrity. Today, I ordered as Johnny Depp”, they said.
Haunted Beauty (@hauntedbeauty) shared the results of their Johnny Depp pizza hack in a big reveal of what they consider to be a pristine Domino’s Pizza order.

When they opened their pizza, they said, “Oh, **** these [cooks] didn’t clump all the toppings in one slice. Damn, that pizza looks good as heck,” as well as noting that they “actually put sauce on the top, and it’s not a sauceless burned mess.” The TikToker even thanked Johnny Depp for the pizza outcome.
It seems that they are not the only ones to do this celebrity hack, as one commenter on the video noted that they work at Little Caesars and one person always orders as Marvel and Captain America star Chris Evans. Many other commenters are saying that the creator of the video is a “straight-up genius”.
Some worried, however, that the name of a celebrity could hurt you if the person making the food did not like that celebrity, which is certainly a real issue with Johnny Depp.
The popularity of the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise has continued to grow throughout the years.
Not only have the films broken box office records, but merchandise sales have always been profitable, and the film even invaded all Disney park attractions of Pirates of the Caribbean, inserting Johnny Depp’s Captain Jack Sparrow within the ride, altering the storyline from an original IP to one based on the franchise.
The Edward Scissorhands star has been in the limelight over the past few years, not only for his spectacular work on film but due to his crumbling personal life. If you’ve been following Inside the Magic for any length of time, you’ve probably seen some of our extensive coverage of the Johnny Depp vs Amber Heard lawsuit.
The historic Johnny Depp and Amber Heard defamation lawsuit occurred in Fairfax, Virginia, but the internet watched worldwide.
Depp was suing ex-wife Heard for $50 million following a 2018 op-ed piece regarding her then-alleged experience as a victim, and subsequent survivor, of domestic viewing. Heard was also countersuing the Corpse Bride star for $100 million.
This civil case came on the heels of Depp’s November 2020 libel lawsuit loss that cost him his starring roles in both The Walt Disney Company’s Pirates of the Caribbean franchise and Warner Bros. Fantastic Beasts Harry Potter spinoff film series.
In the past, Depp revealed that not even for $300 million would he return to Disney. During his trial, it was quoted, “The fact is, Mr. Depp, if Disney came to you with $300 million and a million alpacas, nothing on this earth would get you to go back and work with Disney on a ‘Pirates of the Caribbean’ film? Correct?” the lawyer asked. “That is true, Mr. Rottenborn,” Depp replied.
Although Depp did come out on top, winning his trial and being proven innocent, there are still many who are not major fans of the actor due to the allegations, which is likely the issue that the commenter was pointing out initially, as this might make the person making the pizza not want to deliver a perfect product.
All of this being said, there were some who claimed to work at Domino’s who said you cannot see the name of the person ordering their food until after it is made, which kind of makes the hack null and void. That being said, it may work at other food locations. Of course, this was just a fun idea, and people should use their real names and not impersonate others while ordering food.
What’s Depp Up to Now?
Speaking of pizza, it looks like Depp has a vested interest in Italy as of late.
Johnny Depp may soon be adding “castle owner” to his résumé.
According to local Italian media, the 61-year-old actor is considering purchasing a historic $4 million fortress in Montalto Dora, a quaint village in northern Italy. Perched on Mount Crovero in the Turin region, the centuries-old estate is currently for sale following an extensive restoration that preserved its medieval and Gothic charm.
Depp, who has spent much of his time in Europe following his high-profile 2022 defamation trial with ex-wife Amber Heard, reportedly toured the property while directing his upcoming biopic Modì, based on the life of Italian painter Amedeo Modigliani. Italian actor Riccardo Scamarcio — Depp’s co-star in the film alongside Al Pacino — is said to have introduced him to the estate, according to Corriere della Sera.
The sprawling castle spans over 22,000 square feet and boasts 11 bedrooms, 13 bathrooms, a cobblestone courtyard, a 15th-century chapel, and even additional buildings — including a smaller castle and a traditional farmhouse — all nestled on its lush grounds, per Il Messaggero.
But not everyone is sold on the idea. Montalto Dora Mayor Renzo Galletto expressed mixed feelings in an interview with The Post, saying that while a celebrity presence might draw global attention, Depp’s ownership might not align with the community’s vision.
“A celebrity buying a historic monument like the Montalto Dora castle would bring a lot of attention to the area, but we’re not sure if it would be the right ‘economic synergy’ for the community,” Galletto said. He also noted that the site is under the protection of the Italian Cultural Heritage system, which could make future renovations or development difficult due to strict preservation rules.
The town itself is home to roughly 3,300 residents and is known for its quiet charm — a stark contrast to the world of Hollywood glitz.
Any structural changes to the property would require multiple layers of approvals, Galletto added, potentially complicating the purchase or any plans Depp may have for the castle.
Interestingly, this wouldn’t be Depp’s first brush with dramatic real estate. He once owned a mansion on Sweetzer Avenue near Los Angeles’ famed Sunset Strip, which he bought in 1995 for $2.3 million from celebrity lawyer Marvin Mitchelson.
Tucked away behind thick foliage and at the end of a cul-de-sac, the residence offered complete privacy from prying eyes — a feature Depp might be hoping to replicate with his latest interest.
Meanwhile, Depp’s royal streak continues with Jeanne du Barry, in which he portrays King Louis XV. The film is set to hit theaters in the U.S. next month, and judging by his castle hunting, it seems the actor may be bringing some of that regal flair into his personal life as well.
