YouTuber Jaclyn Hill recalls UNNERVING story of being 'humilated' by Amber Heard's bodyguard
Jaclyn Hill, a beauty YouTuber, claims she once met Amber Heard at a restaurant but was escorted away by Heard's security guard, leaving Hill in a "humiliating" situation in a TikTok video broadcast on Wednesday, April 27. Hill, who has 5.6 million YouTube subscribers, said she'd been meaning to inform her fans about her encounter with Heard for "about two years" and decided to do so now because of the focus on Heard's defamation suit against her ex-husband, Johnny Depp.
Hill, in a video that has been viewed 570,000 times, said the experience happened a few years ago while she was dining with a group of friends at Nobu, a Japanese-fusion restaurant franchise known for hosting celebrities, in Malibu, California. She said she observed Heard sitting next to her at the restaurant and recognized her from the 2006 film "Alpha Dog."

"We were making eye contact every three to five minutes, and it was so awkward, and I was like, 'Why does she keep looking at me? Why do I keep looking at her?'" Hill said she decided to tell Heard that she recognized her and thought she was "really beautiful" after paying her tab and leaving the restaurant. Hill claims she and Heard had a brief discussion regarding Hill's ear piercings before Heard's security man "physically grabs my arm, grabs me, and says, 'Ma'am come with me,'" according to Hill.

He then allegedly dragged her to the front of the restaurant, where several patrons were watching, and told her, "You need to leave. You are not allowed to speak to her." The incident, according to the YouTuber, was "the most awkward moment of my life" and "humiliating." In the video, she says Heard was "so nice" to her and had a "weird look on her face" when the security agent ordered Hill to leave.
Heard, who has starred in films such as "Aquaman" and "The Rum Diary," was married to Depp for 15 months beginning in 2015. The couple divorced in 2017, and Depp is suing Heard for defamation over an op-ed she wrote in 2018 that included allegations of abuse that were widely assumed to be about Depp. Heard has countersued for $100 million.
Hill is a well-known YouTuber who publishes cosmetic tutorials and vlogs on a regular basis. She also has a TikTok account where she posts short beauty hacks and updates on her life, such as her plastic surgery experience and her dieting and eating habits.
