Johnny Depp took to the UK's stages once again on Thursday night, just a day after winning his bitter legal battle with ex Amber Heard.
It was the fourth time in a week the Hollywood actor, 58, had been involved in one of pal Jeff Beck's concerts and he wowed starstruck fans at the Sage in Gateshead.
While he stopped to sign autographs for the excited North East natives, he refused to comment on Wednesday's sensational court case verdict.
He was spotted smoking a black cigarette as he greeted the patient crowd who had been waiting for hours in bad weather conditions to try to catch a glimpse of their idol.
While he remained silent on questions regarding Heard and his multi-million-pound victory, he smiled at his fans and happily signed autographs.
During the concert, musician Jeff told the audience the Pirates of the Caribbean star had "been through a lot" and made reference to the "good verdict".
As the adoring crowd - which reportedly included more than 100 people - got a bit too excited, security guards are said to have had to intervene and usher the star back to a vehicle.
North News reported that some fans exclaimed "I can't breathe" after managing to touch the actor.
Fans were then seen to chase the people carrier as it sped away, with super-fan Katie Riley telling the publication she had attended the concert just to see her idol perform.
She said: "I was very excited. I had originally purchased tickets for the Hollywood Vampires tour in 2020, then it was rescheduled to 2022 and then it was cancelled all together, so I feel like being able to see him on stage like this was very long awaited and a dream come true.
"He was everything I could have hoped for. It still hasn't sunk in for me."
She continued: "He is a very talented musician. I know he's played guitar since he was about thirteen years old, and it definitely shows.
"The atmosphere was great throughout the whole show, but the hype did increase when Johnny appeared.
Johnny first surprised concert goers in the UK earlier in the week as he took to the stage in Sheffield.
Throughout his appearances he had sang his cover of Isolation, which was originally a John Lennon song and was released by Depp and Beck in 2020.
The tune has recently re-entered the charts amid the actor's legal battle with Heard.
