Johnny Depp is raising eyebrows after taking a bite out of the scenery — literally.
The Pirates of the Caribbean star, 63, was caught on camera biting into decorative greenery while attending a party at Park MGM in Las Vegas on Saturday, September 26.
In the bizarre clip, Depp posed for photographers while holding a drink and standing in front of a wall covered in faux plants.
Johnny returned to the decorative wall and took an even bigger bite.
Things took an unexpected turn when the actor leaned toward the backdrop, buried his face in the greenery, and emerged with a leaf in his mouth. Depp appeared to chew the artificial foliage for several seconds before eventually spitting it out.
But apparently, one bite wasn't enough.
Johnny Went Back for Seconds
Johnny pulled away with multiple leaves hanging out of his mouth.
After removing the first piece, Depp returned to the decorative wall and took an even bigger bite.
This time, the Edward Scissorhands actor pulled away with multiple leaves hanging out of his mouth before raising his glass and continuing to pose for photographers.
Despite the unusual moment, Depp appeared to be in good spirits throughout the event.
The Hollywood star rocked an all-black ensemble for the outing, accessorizing with a brown wide-brimmed hat, tinted glasses, a bandana around his neck and several chunky rings.
The strange incident occurred during Drink Las Vegas, a four-day food and beverage event held across multiple hotels in Sin City. Depp was at an after-party connected to Three Hearts, the rum brand he is associated with.
