Jennifer Lopez has honoured Johnny Depp with an award for his charitable work.
Presented by the singer at the Noche de Nios ("The Night of Children") gala in LA, Depp received a Courage to Care award to recognise his contributions to the Children Hospital Los Angeles.
As Lopez introduced him, she said: "His commitment to children really sets him apart.
"Johnny's kindness and generosity behind the scenes making children a priority are why he is one of tonight's award recipients.
"His films are aspirational for children all over the world. Johnny Depp is a role model for all of us."
Depp said he was "thankful" for the award and saluted the doctors and nurses at the hospital for "their generosity".
He concluded in his speech: "Lastly to the kids, the courage that I have seen in the eyes of these little ones that you don't see anywhere else is astonishing and inspiring."
Other celebrities at the annual event included Jessica Simpson, Billy Crystal, Ray Romano, and Il Divo.
