Olly Alexander drops Savage X Fenty after Johnny Depp rumours
The Years and Years singer has previously modelled Savage X Fenty's underwear range.
The singer, Olly Alexander, says he won’t be wearing Savage X Fenty anymore after rumours that Johnny Depp will appear in a show for the brand.
On Thursday (3 November) it was reported by TMZ that Depp was said to have a “star” role in the Savage X Fenty Vol 4 showcase.
According to TMZ, Rihanna and her team invited Depp to be a part of the show. Both Rihanna and Depp are said to be excited to make it happen.
After the rumours appeared online Olly tweeted a sad face. One fan said, “But, “Savage X Fenty” is you baby……. you wear it so well”.
The Years and Years singer replied: “thank you but after this news i won’t be wearing it anymore”
Olly has previously modeled for Rihanna’s brand at the start of the year, showing off a harness and underwear ahead of Valentine’s Day.
Savage X Fenty Vol. 4 will include performances from Anitta and Burna Boy. Irina Shayk, Cara Delevingne, and Precious Lee are also set to feature.
Resentment of Depp, still a controversial figure, being afforded this opportunity follows the high-profile court case he was involved in alongside his former partner, Amber Heard.
Depp claimed he had been defamed by the Aquaman actress in a 2018 op-ed for the Washington Post where she discussed being a survivor of domestic abuse.
After a jury sided with Depp in June he was awarded $15 million in compensatory and punitive damages. Heard was also awarded $2 million as it was decided one of Depp’s lawyers had defamed her.
Heard is set to appeal the verdict.
Attitude has approached representatives for Olly Alexander, Savage X Fenty, and Prime Video for comment.
Savage X Fenty Vol. 4 will be available on Prime Video on 9 November. Check out the trailer below.
