Actor/Keith Richards impersonator Johnny Depp turns 55 today (June 9), and while the world first fell in love with him as sexy narc Tom Hanson on 21 Jump Street, these days Depp has taken on a different role:  Guitarist in the Hollywood Vampires alongside legends Alice Cooper and Joe Perry.

In honor of his birthday, we’ve assembled a gallery of Depp’s time in the Hollywood Vampires thus far.  The band is currently making its way through Europe on tour, but hopefully, they’ll return stateside soon for a run of shows.
