Theron-Depp Moment at Dior Sparks Speculation

A viral clip from Dior’s Paris Fashion Week shows Charlize Theron greeting LVMH chief Bernard Arnault and French First Lady Brigitte Macron before walking past Johnny Depp without acknowledging him, prompting online speculation of a deliberate snub. The exchange drew attention because Theron is the longtime face of J’Adore and Depp is the ambassador for Sauvage, and social posts noted Theron had “liked” a 2023 Time article critical of Depp’s comeback. Several outlets and insiders, including TMZ and Page Six, said the moment may be a nonstory caused by a hectic event and noted Depp was partly concealed by a hat and sunglasses. Neither actor’s representatives have offered public comment. The clip has amplified discussion about celebrity comebacks, brand partnerships and the optics of major fashion events.
