LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Johnny Depp has finally responded to the verbal abuse accusations brought against him by his 'Blow' co-star Lola Glaudini.

The 'Criminal Minds' actress appeared on the 'Powerful Truth Angels' podcast on January 30, where she shared that the actor "reamed" on her face while working on the set of Ted Demme's 2001 movie.

Even though the episode came over a month ago, a clip from it containing Glaudini's allegations recently went viral, leading to a public outcry.

Lola Glaudini claimed Johnny Depp called her a 'f*****g idiot' on the set of 'Blow'

Glaudini starred as Rada in the 2001 film 'Blow', which was a biopic of George Jung, a drug trafficker and smuggler, who played a key role in the US cocaine trade during the 1970s and early 1980s.

On the 'Powerful Truth Angels' podcast, the 52-year-old actress shared, "The very first day, I haven’t even met Johnny Depp at this point. I’m on a bear skin run in a bikini," as per Independent.

She continued, "Ted Demme comes over to me, and he’s like, 'Ok Lola when Johnny Depp says this certain word, I want you to burst out laughing like he just told you the funniest thing over here.' We’re in the background, the deep background, right?"

"[Depp] says his monologue and I go 'haha,'" shared the 'Criminal Minds' star before mimicking the laughter she allegedly made at that point.

Glaudini further narrated, "And Johnny Depp walks over to me, sticks his finger in my face – and I’m in a bikini on the ground like this – and he comes over and he goes, ‘Who the f*** do you think you are?"



 

Glaudini quoted Depp as she continued, "'Who the f**k do you think you are? Shut the f**k up. I’m out here, and I’m trying to f*****g say my lines, and you’re out f*****g pulling focus. You f*****g idiot.'"

She added, "'Oh, now, oh now it’s not so funny? Now you can shut up? Now you can f*****g shut the f**k up? The quiet that you are right now, that’s how you f*****g stay.'"

'The Sopranos' actress then described the reaction she had to Depp's verbal abuse, saying, "This was my first studio movie, I’ve just done indie movies until then. And I have the star who I have idolized, who I am so excited to work with, reamed me in my face. The only thing I have going through my head is, 'Don’t cry, don’t cry, don’t cry.'"

Later in the episode, she shared that Depp gave her "a non-apology apology," saying, "[He said], 'You know I’m doing this Boston accent, and it’s really f*****g with me.'"
