LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: After his incredibly successful run with ‘Euphoria', Sam Levinson is back with ‘The Idol’. Levinson has a unique and artistic style of portraying the troubles faced by people, and by the looks of it, he has taken it up a notch with ‘The Idol’. The upcoming HBO series has stirred controversy due to some scandalous scenes, which have received a rather negative reaction on social media despite getting a standing ovation at Cannes Film Festival.
At the center of ‘The Idol’ are Lily-Rose Depp, The Weeknd, Troye Sivan, and Jennie Kim amongst others. However, the focus remains on Lily-Rose, and looks like the internet might have the next most controversial Depp on its hands. Apart from being Johnny Depp’s daughter, Lily-Rose is now going to be amid a sea of controversies after playing the role of Jocelyn in ‘The Idol’ and viewers have some thoughts about it.

It is safe to say that no matter how well or otherwise ‘The Idol’ does in terms of critics’ reviews, ratings, and overall viewership, Lily-Rose will be on the receiving end of some controversies. The internet hasn’t held back after Lily-Rose's nude scene as one person tweets, “Choking back tears at the premiere of his borderline porn show that apparently features needless amounts of lily rose Depp’s naked body and her character going viral for a selfie with c*m on her face doesn’t sit right in any sort of way.”
The others have also expressed disappointment with Lily-Rose, only because they are well aware of the aftermath as they write, “So Lily-Rose Depp auditioned for this show to be abused on set or what? even if it’s acting this is gonna be public and we know what happens with that.”
Viewers have come to Lily-Rose’s rescue, highlighting some important points as they tweeted, 'It got a 5-minute standing ovation from Cannes which is basically just a courtesy clap. making lily rose depp a laughing stock in the process while the men who wrote and directed her get off without even a bit of criticism.”
It’s safe to say that after ‘The Idol’, the limelight of controversies will most likely be shifted from Johnny Depp to his daughter, as one viewer tweets, “Sam Levinson, the Weeknd and Lily-Rose Depp - The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse 😬 I count Lily twice because her father is that degenerate, yellow tooth, wife beater Johnny Depp #TheIdol."
Viewers were conflicted as they fail to understand why Lily-Rose took up this role as one user said, “How did she allow herself to be in such a project I thought she's Lily rose Depp after all this is actually so sad.” And finally, one viewer summed it up as they wrote, “I hate that Lily-Rose Depp has been exposed to all these creepy men all her life.”
