Amber Heard named Google's most searched celebrity in 2022
Updated | By Tamlyn Canham
Amber Heard, Johnny Depp, Queen Elizabeth, Kim Kardashian, and Will Smith were some of the most searched celebrities of the year.
Amber Heard's court battle with her ex-husband, Johnny Depp, has made her the most searched celebrity on Google in 2022.
According to CelebTattler, the 36-year-old had a monthly search average of 5.6-million in America alone. Johnny wasn't too far behind with 5.5-million.
The former couple's messy defamation trial made worldwide headlines. Amber was found guilty of defaming the 'Pirates of the Caribbean' star and ordered to pay him $10.4-million in damages.
Amber has been keeping a low profile since the loss, and has spent the past few months enjoying quality time with her daughter, Oonagh Paige Heard.
The future of her career is uncertain, but the 'Aquaman' star will no doubt keep talking for a long time as she reportedly has plans to appeal the defamation verdict.

The 51-year-old has been shaking things up at Twitter after paying $44-billion for the platform.

The reality star's ex-husband, Kanye West, constantly attacked the couple on social media.
Will Smith also made the top 10 thanks to his infamous slap at the 2022 Oscars. Football icon Tom Brady and Queen Elizabeth - who passed away in September - also featured.
'Stranger Things' star Millie Bobby Brown and 'Spider-Man' actress Zendaya completed the top 10.
