Love: 'Johnny Depp gave me CPR'

Courtney Love has claimed that she was once saved by Johnny Depp after the Pirates Of The Caribbean actor performed CPR on her.

The singer and actress, who has battled addictions in the past, told The Times that she might have died if Depp had not come to her rescue.

"I was going to die on a few occasions. Johnny Depp gave me CPR on one," she explained.

"That's as close as I ever got. I was watching that movie where he plays Dillinger, and I was like, 'Motherf**ker, I never had myself any JD except CPR'."

Her latest album Nobody's Daughter is scheduled for release in January.
