It can be said that at this time, the lawsuit of Johnny Depp and Amber Heard is the top concern. Just type in Depp or Heard on the two platforms above, most of us find clips from the trial with titles like Johnny Depp ruining Amber Heard's lawyer (13 million views), Heard's quote "I didn't punch you, I just protested (29 million views)... The posters said they wanted to draw attention to details that are easily overlooked.

Meanwhile, experts worry the videos are shifting from mocking to encouraging harassment. That was especially evident after Saturday Night Live hosted a mock trial, deriding the lawsuit as "news that we can watch and enjoy watching."

According to sex and culture critic Ella Dawson, domestic violence is no joke. He voiced his criticism of SNL just hours after the skit aired. "In twenty years, people will be disgusted looking back at this skit. We foresaw that disgust," Dawson said.

Despite the criticism, SNL's video garnered more than 4 million views in the first day it was posted. This has more views than any show that SNL has posted in the past month.

Even the video ranked first in the list of trending videos. Other accounts on YouTube and TikTok have achieved similar success: Increasing views along with new followers.

Some other users have more "noble" purposes. They were longtime fans of Captain Jack Sparrow in Pirates of the Caribbean so decided to support the actor.

Haider Ali, an American musician, said he felt like he was watching the lawsuit between Depp and Heard. Ali said she was a victim of domestic violence and believes that sharing clips from the trial on social media can help others in the same situation.

"I posted a few videos before, but the effect was not very good. My third video posted reached more than 2 million views. The next day, another video reached 2.6 million views," Ali said.

In just a week, Ali's personal channel changed from a self-proclaimed rock singer to a few minutes long videos cut from the trial of Johnny Depp and Amber Heard. One of the most viewed videos to date with more than 2.6 million views is the moment Dr Dawn Hughes gives testimony in defense of Amber Heard.

Meanwhile, Lahiru Darsha started posting videos of Johnny Depp after he noticed the trial was leaning in favor of the Fantastic Beasts actor. Previously, this 25-year-old gamer's channel specialized in posting videos about gaming livestreams. The videos only made him about 100 USD after a few months from ad revenue.

But after posting a video of Depp, he was a huge hit. Lahiru Darsha's videos attract millions of views within a few days. The video, titled Johnny Depp's funny bodyguard, is only 35 seconds long, but has attracted 1.3 million views. The video of the actor trying to hold back his laughter also attracted nearly 4 million views. He earned a staggering amount of 3,700 USD.

"I wanted to engage the audience with videos that they might have missed. The support of Johnny Depp's audience pushed me to post more videos," Lahiru Darsha told Cnet.

The 25-year-old man has earned a total of more than $11,000 since the trial took place. Later, Darsha heard that the platform's moderators were warning accounts that posted videos from the trial. He decided to hide the videos for fear of the channel crashing.

While videos from the trial were used for profit, some people who took the time to watch the videos made sober and serious comments and analysis.

Attorney Devin Stone posted on his personal channel a 22-minute video to discuss the cause of the case. However, he knew how to attract when he mixed a little humor about the trial. In the end, the video garnered more than 1.7 million views.

"Finding the truth about domestic violence allegations has always been challenging. The public reaction has also been polarized," Stone told Cnet.

Johnny Depp and Amber Heard's "drama series" also gives attorney Ashleigh Ruggles Stanley the opportunity to bring celebrity culture to social media.

In another development, Lily-Rose Depp - depp's daughter recently updated her image to celebrate her new age and remained resolutely silent before the actor's father's lawsuit.

Specifically, the Daily Mail reported that on May 29, Lily-Rose Depp posted a photo to celebrate her 23rd birthday. In the photo, she wears a two-piece shirt with the words "Happy birthday princess" (rough translation: Happy birthday). Princess Day).

Under the comments, friends, colleagues and fans send their wishes to Johnny Depp's daughter. Someone asked why Lily has not spoken about her father's lawsuit until now.

Lily's latest post is also her first move in the midst of Johnny Depp's lawsuit and his ex-wife. From mid-April until now - when the actor Pirates of the Caribbean and Heard took each other to court - Lily was completely silent. Her silence was disappointing.

According to the Daily Mail, the only time the young actor spoke out to protect his father was in 2016. At that time, she affirmed that Depp was a great father, always loving and caring for his children.

The Hollywood daughter shared: "Dad is the sweetest, most loving person I know. He loves and protects his children. Everyone who knows my family shares the same opinion."

During the hearing on April 20, Depp said the relationship between Lily and Amber Heard was not very good. Initially, the actor's daughter also contacted Heard through social networks, but gradually the two grew apart when Lily realized the true personality of the Aquaman actor.

The Things reported that Depp's daughter even wrote a letter to Heard with the content that she did not like the behavior of the star.
