Comedian Ricky Gervais is known for his sense of humor and ability to poke fun at celebrities.
In one instance, his joke was aimed at Amber Heard and Johnny Depp after they recorded an apology video, which went viral.
Gervais likened the video to a hostage video, which he found to be humorous.
Recently, the trial between Depp and Heard has been making headlines across the media, and many celebrities have been asked for their opinions regarding the case.
Gervais, a frequent Golden Globes host, was recently approached for his opinion on the matter.
However, he stated that he tries to stay away from celebrity stuff and does not really do that stuff.
In 2015, Heard attempted to illegally smuggle her two dogs into Australia.
She was caught and faced a crime punishable by up to ten years in prison and a $75,000 fine.
Heard and Depp made a video apologizing for their actions, with Depp speaking a few lines to support Australian laws.
Many celebrities shared their opinions on the video, including Gervais, who mocked Depp and Heard’s apology, saying, “It looks like a hostage video.”
Gervais is the creator of the short-lived comedy series, Life’s Too Short.
The show was a mockumentary about Warwick Davis, a comic actor who measures 3 feet, – 6 inches, and his attempts to salvage his career after a professional downfall.
Depp made a cameo on the show, and while working with him, Gervais got to know a side to Depp that he felt would have turned off Hollywood.
During one scene, Gervais was helping Davis get shoved down a toilet, and as they were laughing, Davis pointed out that Depp was saying, “You don’t mind if I masturbate while you’re doing that?” Gervais found it hilarious but also thought that if people knew what Depp was really like, his career would be over.
As for the trial between Depp and Heard, Gervais stated that he did not think either of them would come out as a winner, and he tries to stay away from such things.
