Vasquez quickly became an internet celebrity for multiple so-called ‘takedowns’ of Heard during the trial, as well as her rapport with the defendant – an aspect that particularly pleased fans of the 58-year-old actor.
As the industry insider went on to put it: “Talent agents are circling Camille because they recognize that she is the unicorn — a smart, savvy, poised attorney whose impactful performance during the trial propelled her to a rare level of visibility”. Another went on to remark that “the fact that she is a woman of colour is an added bonus”.
It is said that multiple suitors from both the legal and the entertainment industry are now “champing at the bit” to work with Vasquez and history has shown that TV exposure like she has already had with this case works wonders for a lawyer’s career. In fact, Depp himself hired another member of his legal counsel, Kathleen Zellner, after seeing her on Making a Murderer.
