Johnny Depp Had to Be Rescued from Angelina Jolie's Dog

Johnny Depp starred with Angelina Jolie in the recent movie The Tourist, and he says he once agreed to watch her dog so she and Brad Pitt could go on a romantic date. The only problem? He hates dogs.

He recalled: "Foolishly I was persuaded to look after their dog Jacques for a night. He's a huge bulldog. At first I had a terrible feeling, because Jacques smelled horrible.

"But then I told myself, 'Come on, you will survive one night.' Everything was cool -- until I sat down on the bed to take my shoes off. Jacques pounced on me from behind and kept jumping around on me.

"He's not small. Around 175 pounds of dog was hurled at me, which felt like about 300 pounds. I shouted for help and luckily someone came to take that beast off me."

Despite the incident, Johnny did not let it affect his relationship with the couple. He and long-term partner Vanessa Paradis, 38, enjoyed being able to socialize with them after filming ended for the day.

He told German magazine TV Movie: "We often went for dinner with them. It was great. I've known Brad since the end of the Eighties. It was great to see him as a man and amazing father."
