Body Language Expert Examines Johnny Depp and Amber Heard’s Expressions In Court
The body says a lot about people. The clothing folks wear, the way they move, the way they talk, they way they gesticulate, their immediate reactions to things—all of this and more reflect one’s own state of mind, how they feel, what they think, their opinions, values, and everything around and in between.
Body language expert Janine Drive exemplifies this in her now-viral analysis of Amber Heard’s and Johnny Depp’s court testimonies, specifically how they expressed themselves and reacted throughout the Depp Vs. Heard case.

The body says a lot about a person, and body language expert Janine Drive broke down the nuances of how Johnny Depp and Amber Heard expressed themselves in the courtroom

So, author and body language expert Janine Driver broke down the subtle nuances of how Johnny Depp and Amber Heard expressed themselves and reacted to various things in the courtroom.
While Drive was present in the courtroom for that trial, she also went on CourtTV to elaborate on specific moments during the hearing.
If you’re not aware, Depp and Heard are currently in a legal battle against each other, and you can get the cliff-notes on the details in another Bored Panda article here and see people’s reactions here.
One of the key points Drive focused on was how Heard “leaked” contempt through her facial expressions

Many of Drive’s insights focused on Amber Heard, particularly on when she was listening to one of the recordings she made with Depp. After seeing the clip, Drive summarized her facial language as contempt and moral superiority.
“It’s on the left side of her face, right there. It’s moral superiority. And it’s out of place, especially for a battered woman. I work with battered women. […] And I have to tell you, battered women or women who are domestic violence survivors—they’re not leaking contempt. That’s moral superiority.”
Drive elaborated that domestic violence survivors express sadness and fear, and she wasn’t seeing that in Heard’s face. “It’s moral superiority. It’s almost like saying, I got you. I got you,” pointed out Drive.
With Depp, she noticed the occasional smile, which she explained as an attempt to hide the pain he’s experiencing

She also talked about Depp, pointing out that he gives these brief smiles every now and then, signifying that it shows he’s experiencing feelings of weakness and vulnerability while talking about the abuse he has experienced to, in a sense, counterweight (as a defense mechanism) the pain he’s feeling because of it.
Drive pointed out that there is also this nervous laugh that accompanies the smile, and that people can see it in other interviews that he’s had over the years, especially when he is asked to revisit bad memories or, like in the court video, is being emasculated.
Drive also pointed out Heard’s feelings of shame, anxiety, and stress, which can be seen in how she touches her face

There was a third clip Drive talked about, and that is again about Heard. In the video, she is seen being more tactile with her face, which Drive explains as a response to the spike in stress.
Moreover, when Heard touches her forehead, that is indicative of shame, which only emphasizes the absence of things like swallows, no cornering down of the mouth, no eye-brows pulling together which would signify sadness.
All of this leads Drive to believe that there was no battering done like some news outlets claimed in defense of Heard. If it was, she wouldn’t give out the non-verbal bodily communication that she is now.

You can see the full examination below
On another occasion, Drive was also commenting on a clip where Heard was said to have borderline personality disorder after an incident where she hit a former friend in the face.
A key moment here, according to Drive, was where Heard turned away for a moment to look over the shoulder, which signifies lack of confidence, as if to scan around to look for understanding and acceptance from others.
In another interview, Drive pointed out the moral superiority and anger Heard’s been expressing in the following court session

Also, the eyebrows display displeasure and trouble—she seems bothered with anticipation for whatever bad news that might follow as per a perceived threat and she’s seemingly trying to control her anger.

None of us can be sure what happened between Amber Heard and Johnny Depp, at most I think both did their part in a toxic relationship. But everytime I watch Amber Heard closely when Johnny Depp speaks about being abused there seems to be something off in her face, like hidden amusement or contempt. I don't know about Depp but I for sure don't trust Heard.
So far both have been suspected of abuse. I believe that they were both abusive to each other.

As a previously battered women, F Amber Heard. She is so obviously lying. Not saying Johnny is a saint and isn't toxic af, but she is a liar who has set women back 100 years with her lies
I am sorry for what you went through but I don’t believe that being a previously battered woman makes you an expert on figuring out who is lying.

It is true about the smiling be a defence mechanism. E.g there are people who smile when they cry. This is the brain trying to cause less stress. It is almost like when people make jokes in bad situations.
Can confirm. I have clinic depression and often catch myself smiling during conversations - not because I am genuinely happy, but to unconsciously appease the person talking to me, to defuse the situation or to direct the attention away from me. It is absolutely a defence mechanism which you are not aware of using, and has nothing to do with how you actually feel.

You don't have to be a body language expert to see what a liar Amber Heard is. My God nothing she says is believable. You'd think she wouldn't be so transparent. What a disgusting pos she is.
Hey I think I’m a body language expert now too! Did you see how she kept talking with her hands in excitement whenever she spoke about Amber Heard’s contempt? That is a clear indicator of personal bias.
Look at every single expert that has looked into this. They all say the same thing.
Load More Replies... She's seeing what she wants to see. Body language is ambiguous and can be faked. Both parties are actors, and may be playing parts for this trial. Feh.
I can read all the signs and they are saying exactly what I want them to say.
My mother abused me both physically and emotionally. I still suffer from depression and always try to hide behind smiles, laughs and jokes. I honestly believe that Amber was the abuser and every once and awhile Depp might have gotten to the point where he lashed out verbally, but like me when I could, I ran away from it. I truly hope that he wins this case, not so much because I'm a fan, because if I thought he were guilty I would toss him like garbage, but because I see and feel that what he experienced was abuse at her hands.
This lasy is way off. Narcissists can hardly contain their glee. I think Depp's body language was to taunt. Heard busy language was frustration shame. Try being in a relationship with a narcissistic abuser and see if you come out smelling like roses. They will trigger you into acting outside of yourself so that both sides ba is really obnoxious. You are entitled to defend yourself but it changes you and you begin to mirror the abusive patterns sometimes. It's horrible
People will often laugh or joke when going through or reliving trauma. It's a way to hide your vulnerability and shame (and many abused people feel shame about being abused), and way that your brain tries to mitigate the pain associated with that abuse so you don't live through that pain again. That being said, who knows who is lying here.

"Body language expert"? And how exactly did she become an expert? Does she have a PhD in body language? I hate Amber Heard, but this "expert" seems completely biased. Especially when she refers to her own PERSONAL experiences to "prove" her observations. There is no science to reading body language because body language analyses have shown to be unreliable time and time again. Not to mention that Amber and Johnny are both actors and can easily fake their body lanaguage.
You cannot fake body language and expression all the time.

This article is b******t. I don’t even know the situation between these 2, but I can tell you Johnny’s attitude and facial expressions are a point of superiority, thinking it’s funny, he’s above whatever this woman is saying, and mocking pain- to reference a brief vid I heard, question is she smaller than you? with his as “no, I wouldn’t say that” (a jab to a woman visibly smaller). I have dated a narcissist and this is the exact way they behave after abusing someone. Making them look unstable and silly for even thinking they could win an argument- let alone a court hearing. And no, not all bartered or abused women behave the same. Especially, if there is time enough to start processing and get angry about it. Which abused people can do/ depending on their or own personality type. I’m no psychologist or expression expert but here-I can see a person defending a man they like and find charming, over a woman they find unstable, unbelievable. This is not responsible journalism/psych work.
So the audio of her admitting to hitting him and calling him a baby for walking away from the situations so they don't escalate means nothing? Now you sound like someone who is defending a woman they like and find charming.

Well, they are both actors and very good at presenting or masking whichever emotions they think would help them most. So I'm not sure a body language expert's analysis is very reliable here.
If that's the case, she's a shitty actor on and off screen then

Body language is not as indicative as people think it is. Coming from an MD. We all, as humans, have certain expressions: scowls, smiles, fidgets, etc. What they mean, to each individual, is filtered through the lifetime of an experience, a culture, etc. Many in science feel that microexpression "analsysi" is... a really bad idea. You cannot tell if someone's lying etc. There's so much else going into it. And victim sof chlidhood abuse often have great poker faces. Soooo.... yeah. I don't think Heard feels remorse, but I also don't think it takes any special insight to grasp that.
This is the only comment/part of the post that’s actually seemingly unbiased lol
Load More Replies... He's an actor. So sure, he will know how to look the way he wants to look. He probably read the same books this "body language expert" read, and knows how to play them all. That doesn't mean he's lying. It means he knows how to sell a story.
The fact that they are actors doesn't make them different than anyone else.

Irresponsible indeed. I agree with you about the contempt/grief. But even if it was: there's only one person in my life I feel contempt for and that's my former abuser. Now that I'm free, I don't feel sadness or fear when I see him, I feel contempt.

Haven't Heard and Depp HAD their 15 minutes of fame already? Isn't it time for some other "celebrities" to take over the spotlight? I mean, really, there's absolutely NOTHING else newsworthy to talk about is there? I know, I responded so I AM part of the problem but, seriously, what next, somebody inspecting both of their feces then determining what they have eaten and in doing so come up with reasoning such as "Ms. Heard had evidence of "Cheetos" in her food while Mr. Depp had apple seeds; obviously, HE'S better at eating hence not so good at lying!"?
The only thing I have to say is if Depp was abusive to amber I'm sure it was verbal and to try to protect himself from her abuse she has a track record for being a crazy b***h and beating on people why would her relationship with him be any different he has been scared and hurt this whole time while she sits there like ha f**k you guy anyone who defends amber in this case is an abuser themselves justice for johnny
That's what you seen? I saw the opposite. Most people are talking to his favor because he been the most popular. There no fair judgement when you just poise everything to benefit your favorite person. Biased. I'm glad most these are not real judges. My God!!

Tell us more about how you love Johnny and hate Amber. Look, they're both morons and I'd feel contempt for my ex if he wanted to have this entire fiasco aired. All I've seen so far has been a successful defamation of Amber Heard. Meanwhile, they're both guilty. Only a narcissist who is confident in his acting skills would want this s**t aired publicly. She looks done. He looks like hes having fun. Edit; also, having a psychologist, who has never actually sat with Amber, "diagnose" her with Histrionic Personality Disorder AND bipolar disorder is a hell of a f****d up move. Weaponizing mental health like that is so fücked up.
He has said himself that the reason he wants this to be public is to clear his name. Personally, I don't think he would want this aired if he knew he was in the wrong, because that would ruin what little there is left of his career, and lawyers can only do so much if there is no proof in his favor.

F**k the two of them, hope they eat each other. Please, stop posting about these two.
Ye all I felt I saw ,when Amber was being questioned, seemed ,rather more acting ,neva seemed real, and true you never looked hurt ,upset ,
Because of AH I stopped believing in the law, admiring celebrities or seeing them as public figures. From today I will distrust every shadow of every celebrity. Amber Heard destroyed the fight against domestic violence, destroyed all victims who suffered and are suffering from domestic violence. The domestic violence law should be revised because of Amber Herad. How many perpetrators have you won with the law, such as AH? And how long are we going to let people with AH be victorious? I'm sick and bruised and shocked and diminished by Amber Heard. People like these shouldn't have freedom without being punished. I am against domestic violence.
People who suffer or have suffered from dv do not react with Amber Heard. I can confirm from my 16 years of dv experience. Today luckily I'm free. However, seeing the anger and confidence in how he talks that he's already won his case in court makes me feel bad. Only those who know a perpetrator can distinguish that the way he speaks and the language he uses is not that of a victim but of a perpetrator. Both relationships are wrong. JD was not correct but AH is even less correct. AH's attitude and performance in court is a disgrace to people who are victims of DV. So much detail in an abuse relationship that AH remembered (and showed concern) that his dog had stepped on a bee. This type of detail is perpetrator attitude. Only those who have never lived a DV relationship fail to see the blatant lie with which she tells real dv stories (studied by the charaties or even instructed by the forensic psychologist Dr. who witnessed before AH).
I hope they find peace and healing. How lucky are we all to be concerned with this drama instead of worrying about food and shelter? Gotta love having 1st world problems.
Eitherway seems this was a toxic relationship! I personally believed JD was the guilty party as we as a society generally believe the first side of the story we hear until that can be proved otherwise! JD has been proven guilty before he had a chance to defend himself! hence why he’s gone to the length he has to clarify his side of the story!
All I'll say is you can take 2 people in 1 profession and have 2 separate outcomes in findings. ---- Who is guilty? Who is innocent? I honestly don't know. I think they both brought out a bad side in each other. Abuse can come in so many forms. Is mental abuse different from physical? From emotional? Is physical abuse worse than any other form of abuse? If you intentionally provoke someone with a form of abuse because you know they'll retaliate, is that okay? I think those are questions that society has to answer. ---- You've got a psychologist for Johnny's side, taking the stand, saying after 12 hours of assessment, she diagnosed Amber with borderline personality disorder and histrionic personality disorder and no PTSD. She did not evaluate Johnny. ((continue))
That admission of a BPD diagnosis is totally being weaponized against Amber in the court of public opinion. You know..."see, she's got personality problems so that totally means she's a crazy, dangerous person. People with mental problems are so dangerous". ---- That is not cool. ---- But like I said, 1 profession, 2 findings. ---- Now we have a psychologist for Amber's side taking the stand and stating after 29 hours of assessment through tests, meetings, talking with doctors and Amber's late mother, she's diagnosed Amber with PTSD and no disorders. ....... So, who's right? wrong?

I will never be able to get past the fact that she really squatted on their bed and took a freaking shite. How ladylike. I am super unimpressed.
Take in consideration that when a person comes to their limits in psychological mental infliction, things like that happens. I witnessed a child in school, when submitted under extreme stress from school staff he ended doing the same thing in public. He was under a lot mental abuse, as i observed. The school is sanctioned and supported by the county. So not much to be done against the officials... abuse every where.

Lets not forget this is also about AH assigning herself posterchild for a movement. I have contempt for her audacity
Doesn't matter what the expert has to say, anyone can see the "I hate him now" look on her face... I'll say one thing for sure, she has resting b***h face mastered..
This is biased. One can clearly see that she suffered cause she was very attached to him. She still cries and is visible moved when recounting the experience s. What she calls being in love with him. She was 20 years younger than him. So it was easy for him to mentally play with her manipulate her and mentally emotionally tortured her. I wouldn't allow that but not every woman has the strength to come out of a relationship like that sooner. Most get very attached in the vicious cycle.

Thank you for a factual statement on the matter, which already are clear to so many. Hope to see full justice for Mr Johnny Depp and a huge apollogize from Disney and a fair compensation.
I am curious so if person faxe express signs of comtempt, if this comptent is an avoidance mechanism. Does the person shows still contempt or underlying problems when comes directly with situation?
Obviously we know who's side you're on. Maybe her expression is simply stating that he's a great actor. He was on drugs most of the time so no one knows what he really did to her, also he's best friends with a serial rapist, who probably had a rough past too.
So the fact that she was also on drugs and is an actor makes her innocent? 🤔

They brought out the worst in each other, that's for sure. There is a lot of contemt oozing from Amber.

Sad to see how everyone is on Amber, while they are both two sides of the same coin
I've seen contempt, and I don't know what the heck she is talking about.
Amber has a delusion of persecutory and delusion of grandeur .she compared that she is sexually touched by her husband but had two lovers Jane's Franco and Elon Musk
I was a battered woman and I hate to tell you Aussies or brits don't react the way we do. This bodyblanguage experts full of cŕap. Depp has a history of ripping up his trailer on set long before this happened sure he's been abused but most abusers have been and the alcohol and drugs don't help no doubt his others wives divorced settled out of court money talks.and Hollywood covers a lot ip, now we hear too much way too much . I have met the domestic violence victims of today and some get out early. What Depps lawyer is doing what all of them do even when the law has you dead to rights make the victim look really bad even mentally ill. Aussies and brits both hell will freeze over before you see them break, cry. Breakdown. She wrote a article but named no names since when other than the wealthy do people sue because they think theyvare being talked about. That alone makes him look guilty. He is no Saint I knew there was something not right especially when they wrote an article he's bro
Amber has a Delusion of persecutors and a delusion 9f grandeur.She complained to her psychologist that she is sexually touched and violated by her husband Johny but she has two lovers names James Franco and Elon Musk so obviously she married Johnny for money
Regardless of your definition of moral standing, being married to someone does not mean they are allowed to sexually touch you whenever they would like. Personally I’m more on the side of Depp than Heard but the idea that consent does not matter when you’re married to someone is toxic af, as well as the idea that If you don’t want to be sexually touched in a specific moment or at all by someone that you are a good digger. This comment is embarrassingly delusional.
Load More Replies... Can we also talk about the way Heard dresses for court? She deliberately tries to look like a war widow in mourning and it's hilarious. I mean - everyone knows how she usually dresses, so she isn't fooling anyone wearing all black or that braided updo. Especially since her "I am a victim" clothes choices do not match her facial expressions at all.
You need to go and have a seat somewhere and have a good talk to yourself.

The domestic violence law should be revised because of Amber Herad. How many perpetrators have you won with the law, such as AH? And how long are we going to let people with AH be victorious? I'm sick and bruised and shocked and diminished by Amber Heard. People like these shouldn't have freedom without being punished. I am against domestic violence.
People who suffer or have suffered from dv do not react with Amber Heard. I can confirm from my 16 years of dv experience. Today luckily I'm free. However, seeing the anger and confidence in how he talks that he's already won his case in court makes me feel bad. Only those who know a perpetrator can distinguish that the way he speaks and the language he uses is not that of a victim but of a perpetrator. Both relationships are wrong. JD was not correct but AH is even less correct. AH's attitude and performance in court is a disgrace to people who are victims of DV. So much detail in an abuse relationship that AH remembered (and showed concern) that his dog had stepped on a bee. This type of detail is perpetrator attitude. Only those who have never lived a DV relationship fail to see the blatant lie with which she tells real dv stories (studied by the charaties or even instructed by the forensic psychologist Dr. who witnessed before AH).
I hope they find peace and healing. How lucky are we all to be concerned with this drama instead of worrying about food and shelter? Gotta love having 1st world problems.
Eitherway seems this was a toxic relationship! I personally believed JD was the guilty party as we as a society generally believe the first side of the story we hear until that can be proved otherwise! JD has been proven guilty before he had a chance to defend himself! hence why he’s gone to the length he has to clarify his side of the story!
All I'll say is you can take 2 people in 1 profession and have 2 separate outcomes in findings. ---- Who is guilty? Who is innocent? I honestly don't know. I think they both brought out a bad side in each other. Abuse can come in so many forms. Is mental abuse different from physical? From emotional? Is physical abuse worse than any other form of abuse? If you intentionally provoke someone with a form of abuse because you know they'll retaliate, is that okay? I think those are questions that society has to answer. ---- You've got a psychologist for Johnny's side, taking the stand, saying after 12 hours of assessment, she diagnosed Amber with borderline personality disorder and histrionic personality disorder and no PTSD. She did not evaluate Johnny. ((continue))
That admission of a BPD diagnosis is totally being weaponized against Amber in the court of public opinion. You know..."see, she's got personality problems so that totally means she's a crazy, dangerous person. People with mental problems are so dangerous". ---- That is not cool. ---- But like I said, 1 profession, 2 findings. ---- Now we have a psychologist for Amber's side taking the stand and stating after 29 hours of assessment through tests, meetings, talking with doctors and Amber's late mother, she's diagnosed Amber with PTSD and no disorders. ....... So, who's right? wrong?

Take in consideration that when a person comes to their limits in psychological mental infliction, things like that happens. I witnessed a child in school, when submitted under extreme stress from school staff he ended doing the same thing in public. He was under a lot mental abuse, as i observed. The school is sanctioned and supported by the county. So not much to be done against the officials... abuse every where.
Load More Replies... Lets not forget this is also about AH assigning herself posterchild for a movement. I have contempt for her audacity
Doesn't matter what the expert has to say, anyone can see the "I hate him now" look on her face... I'll say one thing for sure, she has resting b***h face mastered..
This is biased. One can clearly see that she suffered cause she was very attached to him. She still cries and is visible moved when recounting the experience s. What she calls being in love with him. She was 20 years younger than him. So it was easy for him to mentally play with her manipulate her and mentally emotionally tortured her. I wouldn't allow that but not every woman has the strength to come out of a relationship like that sooner. Most get very attached in the vicious cycle.

Thank you for a factual statement on the matter, which already are clear to so many. Hope to see full justice for Mr Johnny Depp and a huge apollogize from Disney and a fair compensation.
I am curious so if person faxe express signs of comtempt, if this comptent is an avoidance mechanism. Does the person shows still contempt or underlying problems when comes directly with situation?
Obviously we know who's side you're on. Maybe her expression is simply stating that he's a great actor. He was on drugs most of the time so no one knows what he really did to her, also he's best friends with a serial rapist, who probably had a rough past too.
So the fact that she was also on drugs and is an actor makes her innocent? 🤔

I trust this. As a human who has felt all these emotions I can confirm that those micro expressions match. I might not be a scientist, but thus seems to check out.
Sad to see how everyone is on Amber, while they are both two sides of the same coin
I've seen contempt, and I don't know what the heck she is talking about.
Amber has a delusion of persecutory and delusion of grandeur .she compared that she is sexually touched by her husband but had two lovers Jane's Franco and Elon Musk
I was a battered woman and I hate to tell you Aussies or brits don't react the way we do. This bodyblanguage experts full of cŕap. Depp has a history of ripping up his trailer on set long before this happened sure he's been abused but most abusers have been and the alcohol and drugs don't help no doubt his others wives divorced settled out of court money talks.and Hollywood covers a lot ip, now we hear too much way too much . I have met the domestic violence victims of today and some get out early. What Depps lawyer is doing what all of them do even when the law has you dead to rights make the victim look really bad even mentally ill. Aussies and brits both hell will freeze over before you see them break, cry. Breakdown. She wrote a article but named no names since when other than the wealthy do people sue because they think theyvare being talked about. That alone makes him look guilty. He is no Saint I knew there was something not right especially when they wrote an article he's bro
Amber has a Delusion of persecutors and a delusion 9f grandeur.She complained to her psychologist that she is sexually touched and violated by her husband Johny but she has two lovers names James Franco and Elon Musk so obviously she married Johnny for money
Regardless of your definition of moral standing, being married to someone does not mean they are allowed to sexually touch you whenever they would like. Personally I’m more on the side of Depp than Heard but the idea that consent does not matter when you’re married to someone is toxic af, as well as the idea that If you don’t want to be sexually touched in a specific moment or at all by someone that you are a good digger. This comment is embarrassingly delusional.
Load More Replies... Can we also talk about the way Heard dresses for court? She deliberately tries to look like a war widow in mourning and it's hilarious. I mean - everyone knows how she usually dresses, so she isn't fooling anyone wearing all black or that braided updo. Especially since her "I am a victim" clothes choices do not match her facial expressions at all.
You need to go and have a seat somewhere and have a good talk to yourself.
