In 2022, the ugly legal struggle between Johnny Depp and Amber Heard, two well-known Hollywood actors, made headlines worldwide. As a result of the Pirates of the Caribbean actor's lawsuit against his Aquaman co-star, who identified herself as a victim of domestic abuse in an article that appeared in the Washington Times in 2018, the former pair gained notoriety. Johnny Depp ultimately won the legal struggle, but Amber Heard has already overtaken him as the 2022 Most Searched Celebrity on Google.
