Johnny Depp cancels concert at last minute, fans spot him drinking an hour before show

After Hollywood Vampires' Budapest show, their Slovakia concert was also cancelled. On Saturday, they are scheduled to perform in Poland.

Actor Johnny Depp was scheduled to perform with his band Hollywood Vampires in Budapest earlier this week. However, the show was cancelled due to 'unforeseen circumstances'. The Papp László Sport Arena was already packed with people when the announcement came.

Hollywood Vampires confirm show's cancellation in Budapest

After reports emerged of the show getting cancelled, Hollywood Vampires shared a post on Instagram on July 18 confirming the same. The note read, "Due to unforeseen circumstances, the Vampires will be cancelling tonight’s show in Budapest. All tickets (general and VIP, including meet & greet) will be refunded in full. We love and appreciate all of the fans who travelled from near and far to see us rise, and we’re truly sorry. Sincere apologies, The Hollywood Vampires."

Johnny reportedly couldn't leave hotel room

Since then, several reports surfaced saying that it was because Johnny fell ill in his hotel room. Blikk quoted an insider as saying, "Everything was prepared, the stage was set, the background crew was also ready for the party. It didn't even occur to me that there could be a problem, especially since the band members also did the sound setup scheduled for the afternoon. Nobody even thought about the fact that Johnny Depp didn't take part, a colleague also set up his microphone, but this is not unusual for such stars."

It also reported, "We heard so much that (Johnny) Depp partied too much, he couldn't even leave the hotel. We also heard that, sure enough, a doctor was called in to see if there was anything more wrong than simply pushing rock stardom too far."

Twitter user claims he drank ahead of show

A Twitter user, @cocainecross, also shared a picture of Johnny with a beer cup claiming that it was clicked just an hour before the concert. The person tweeted, "Here’s Johnny Depp drinking an hour before cancelling his concert due to 'unforeseen circumstances'. He likely passed out again." They also added, "Before they come for me, it was confirmed by the photographer. They claim he 'fell ill at the hotel' even though he was drinking right before the alleged illness."

The group also had a show in Slovakia but it was cancelled too.

Hollywood Vampires Slovakia show cancelled too

The group also had a show in Slovakia but it was cancelled too. Taking to Instagram on Thursday, Hollywood Vampires wrote, "Upon arrival today to the venue in Slovakia to begin set up for tonight’s performance, it quickly became clear that the construction of the facility was incomplete, and therefore unsafe for both the band and the general public. The band is very upset by this recent and unfortunate turn of events, and hope to return when schedules permit."

It also added, “This cancellation is unrelated to the recent cancellation in Budapest, but we can assure you all band members are safe and healthy. We look forward to seeing you in Poland, Germany and the US in the coming days. Sincere apologies, The Hollywood Vampires.”
