More than 'Mr. Stench'

The story about pseudonyms Johnny uses for hotel check-ins gets rehashed every once in a while, but sometimes they add a few more details. Here's the latest from news.com.au:

Mr Stench, Mr Oddpong, Mr Drip Noodle, Mr Donkey Ass – these are just some of the outrageous names Johnny Depp likes to adopt when he wants to avoid publicity or stop people hounding him. You would have thought such names would actually draw attention towards him, but he says it's worked for him in the past.

"Instead of using Smith or Jones, I derive a lot of pleasure from booking airline tickets or checking into hotels under absurd, often indecent pseudonyms," he says.

"I do it when I am certain they don't know who I really am. They probably think I'm weird – well, I suppose I am – but they have to play along with it.

"It's hilarious to get a wake-up call at some ludicrous hour, like 5.30am, and the guy has to say, `Good morning Mr Stench. Good morning Mr Drip Noodle, you have to get up now'."
