Johnny Depp says winning an Oscar would "scare the s**t" out of him.

The Hollywood actor was nominated for an Academy Award in 2004 and 2005 but wasn't disappointed about missing out.

He said: "I don't want to get up in front of all those people and thank them. It scares the s**t out of me. The nomination was enough for me. I felt very honoured. It's not about the awards. I just love acting."

The 'Pirates of the Caribbean' star also says he doesn't care about the glitz and glamour of Hollywood and prefers to stay out of the limelight.

Depp - who has two children with his long-term partner Vanessa Paradis - said: "I like to keep a distance from Hollywood, because I am not good at that game. I don't know who the top dog is this week, and who's out from last week. I don't know who anybody is in this town, and I like it that way."
