(Gibson) Johnny Depp might have based his Captain Jack Sparrow character on Keith Richards, but he's been hanging out with a different Rock and Roll Hall of Famer lately. According to Spinner.com, the actor has been working on songs with Aerosmith frontman and American Idol judge Steven Tyler."We've been hanging out here and there," Depp told Extra. "He's someone I've admired greatly for such a long time. The idea of writing songs with him is a dream come true."
Of course, this isn't the first time Depp and rock and roll have crossed paths. The Pirates of the Caribbean star played bass in a '90s band called P, which also featured Butthole Surfers singer Gibby Haynes and Flea of the Red Hot Chili Peppers. In addition, Depp contributed guitar to a couple of Oasis records and played on Shane MacGowan's Snake album. more on this story
