Aquaman's Amber Heard has been a living, breathing controversy magnet since she came into the spotlight in 2011
PUBLISHED DEC 28, 2018

"History tends to favor those on the right side of it...Justice is not as nuanced or delicate as it’s made out to be," Amber Heard said in an interview with Allure in November 2017. Today, a little more than a year later, this statement rings truer than ever for Heard. While we aren't the judge and jury on whether she was on the "right side" of things or not, we can say this - Heard has been a living, breathing controversy magnet since she came into the spotlight in 2011.
