Last year, Johnny Depp's split from now ex-wife Amber Heard became very public when images of the actress sporting a bruised face, allegedly caused by her husband, emerged. After the divorce was finalized, Heard announced that she would be donating the $7 million from the settlement to "help those less able to defend themselves."

Despite this, the people voted the actor "Favorite Movie Icon," at tonight's People's Choice Awards. In a weird, stumbling speech, Depp thanked his fans for sticking with him―without actually going into what they stuck with him through. "Through whatever good times or bad you've stood by me, trusted me," he said. "I was very deeply affected by the kindness of your recognition and by your well wishes to my family and myself, which is why it's especially meaningful to me to be here, in front of you, to say thank you."
