Lopez admitted in an old interview that mimicking Johnny Depp was difficult: “I’ve always been told that I look like Depp.” Impersonating him and recreating some of his most famous movie personalities for his millions of admirers is a fantastic task. Lopez performed impersonations of Depp at corporate, private, and public events in addition to his formal appearances.
