Johnny Depp’s longtime girlfriend, and mother of his two children, Vanessa Paradis isn’t a stranger to fame, but she’s intimidated by the display of it. Although she’s appeared on the arm of her world famous partner, and has been famous in France since she was 14, as a singer, actress and model, she still shies away from the scrutiny of the red carpet.
The French singer says she and partner Johnny Depp deliberately shun the showbiz lifestyle and she feels uncomfortable when forced to attend glamorous events or socialise with other celebrities.
She admitted: “The red carpet is not something I really know how to work. It intimidates me. I feel very tiny.
“I don’t have famous neighbours and if I did, I’d avoid them. I don’t live the jet-set.
“I’m really lucky. I do stay in wonderful houses, hotels and that’s amazing but we’re not very sociable at all. We don’t go to parties or premieres.”

It’s nearly impossible to hate Vanessa Paradis, even though you want to because she has Johnny Depp. She’s naturally beautiful, never bothering to fix what others see as imperfections with her teeth. She has a unique and natural style, often criticized on the red carpet, but like Depp, just continues doing her own thing. And her sweet dedication to Johnny and their children makes even the most covetous woman happy for Depp that he has her.
Vanessa, 35 – who has been dating the ‘Pirates of the Caribbean’ star for 10 years – also revealed she isn’t sure she could treat another man as well as she treats Johnny.
She added to Elle magazine: “Maybe I’m a good girlfriend because I’m his girlfriend. I’m not sure I’d be a good girlfriend to anyone else.”

I once watched a clip of an interview of Paradis where she was sat alone in a room, the interview voice coming in over speakers, and she was surrounding by televisions with pictures of Depp on them. When talking about meeting and falling in love with him, she cannot concentrate because his face is in front of her, she is so in love with him even after years of being with him that she is caught up just in the image of his face. You can’t watch the interview without coming away feeling Vanessa Paradis deserves Johnny Depp.
