Johnny Depp received the award of Favorite Male Actor, however because Depp had received more votes than any other actor ever, he was awarded the Favorite Movie Actor Of The Decade award at the 2010 People’s Choice Awards last night, January 6 in Los Angeles.
Borat actor Sacha Baron Cohen presented Johnny with his award. But, he introduced him as Mr. Jonathan Depp. Johnny’s birth name is not Jonathan but John (Johnny is a nickname). I would think most people would want to be introduced for an award by their correct name. But, Johnny seemed very gracious and thanked Cohen for not making jokes about him. Then he gave his speech:
“I’m deeply humbled by this honor….it has been quite an amazing decade. An incredible ride and I sincerely thank you all for bestowing upon me all your great treasures. Thank you.”
Congratulations Johnny! You are an amazing actor and totally deserve your win!
