Charlie Sheen

[mbrody]

I heard his most recent rants and raves on the radio this morning. Entertaining and wild.

Really sounds like he is trying to follow his father's footsteps in Apocolypse Now, and will likely become Col. Kurtz when all is said and done!

The Horror!

[brutusthebuckeye]

The dude is fryed out bro!!!!

But hes single got plenty of money....he has prolly lived longer than i would have if i was in his shoes!!!!

[Tarks]

I want to live his life, in my next life!

[Dbone]

I give him 3 years, then he'll be six feet under.

[FlyFishingDude]

The "dead pool" comes to mind....

[anacostiakat]

He is gonna start looking like Mickey Rourke soon.

He's got money but he'll be scraping by in a few years if he keeps this up. Hopefully he's smarter than he's appearing these days, but who knows? His rants are so ridiculous that it almost seems he's doing it deliberately for the publicity -- kinda like Joaquin Phoenix with his whole spaced-out "I'm going to quit acting and be a professional rapper" shtick. I hope for Sheen's sake that he's not really as messed up as he's sounding.

I didn't mind CS in a couple of his movies from the past but really, he's an absolute joke of a guy. He's looking a lot older than he is and this is no doubt a result of substance abuse.

What really bugs me with celebrities is how they can get away with so much by way of breaking the law. If it were myself, I'd be in jail a long time ago.

Earning $2M a week for acting in the worst TV show on television (already saying quite a bit) is utterly insane, even in LA. So it stands to reason, Gucci man-purses of blow and paying off pornstars for $30k/night aren't a big deal. But no matter what your addiction tells you about yourself, at the end of the day, you are not and will never be as cool as you think you are.

[xxxbusa]

The guy is a raving tweaked drug addict, Who cares about Charlie? He's just a lost soul, And a sad excuses he couldn't be a better man especially for his children, I really think its going to take many years of recovery before he's better, to bad, what a waste !!!

[RonLA]

It seems like this is a repetitive cycle for him, it a shame, with that 1 mill per episode and his kids, he can't make the right choices.

His drug habit for him and many others is a vicious cycle, and hard to quit. Maybe he needs to visit tm.org

[ElGuapoSooner]

Apparently he's not too torn up about the "temporary cancellation" of the show. According to the news here he recently boarded a plane for a private island with his ex-wife, porn start Bree Olson and another girlfriend...........its funny to me that a television programs exects would publicly criticize a mans personal life when the character he portays in "thier" program basically parallels his actual life (sans cocain). Mans been getting paid a couple mil a show to play himself..tough gig huh.

The media definitely cares Charlie S and Middle East revolutions IMO.

[melies]

Put the hooker in the closet

[brutusthebuckeye]

Did somebody say"ex wife AND Bree Olson"?

The guy has got problems!!

Good one, PartagasIV

[ColKurtz]

Unfortunately, I believe he is just circling the toilet bowl at this point.

[ZinZan]

I really like his older stuff ie Wall Street n platoon. I think he's talented actor hope he can turn it around like Robert Downey Jr

[CanuckSARTech]

...hope he can turn it around like Robert Downey Jr

You know, I was just thinking about that the other day, with all of this going on.

I heard Charlie's rants on the radio on Friday or so, where he was ripping everyone on that radio talk show (my local station played excerpts of it, due to the rile it was causing). For whatever reason, I completely imagined Robert Downey Jr. driving down the road, listening to the radio, and hearing all of this going on (coupled onto the crap that's been happening with Charlie in the recent weeks). Well, I just completely laughed when I could visualize Robert pitifully looking at the radio, and somewhat pleadingly...."Dude, you need some SERIOUS help. So goners...."

LOL. I just made me laugh to think that's what popped into my head - that Bob Jr. was giving that sort of assessment of the situation. That, and the other thought was Lindsay Lohan, coked out in a hotel room, pulling a prima donna and smashing a flower-filled vase into a giant floor-to-ceiling mirror, screaming, "I WANT TO BE ON THE RADIO!!!! I want people to listen to ME TOO!!!!"

LOL.

Unrepentant Charlie Sheen vows to sue

Charlie Sheen says his "tiger blood" is the reason years of drug-fuelled partying didn't kill him.

In two rambling, but coherent, television interviews with US networks ABC and NBC, Sheen was today unapologetic about his drug use.

He called his parties "epic," but acknowledged that the last time he took drugs, he had probably taken "more than anybody could survive".

Asked by NBC if he was worried his young children would be embarrassed by his behaviour some day, he said, "God, no. Talk about an education."

He said he was drug free, repeated claims he had stopped just by force of will and said he was never afraid of an overdose.

"I probably took more than anybody could survive," he told ABC.

"I was banging seven gram rocks [of cocaine] and finishing them because that's how I roll. I have one speed, I have one gear: 'go'."

Sheen said his body could take the abuse "because I'm me, because I'm different, I have a different constitution, a different brain, a different heart.

"I got tiger blood man."

"Dying's for fools," he said.

"I'm too smart. Too smart to do that. Sorry to the guys that happened to. You should have read the directions before you showed up to party."

The father of five was interviewed at home, accompanied by his two girlfriends, who he called, "the goddesses."

He vowed to sue the producers who cancelled his hit television show, saying he would return to work for a 50 per cent raise.

Sheen said CBS and the producers of his show, Two and a Half Men, would be forced to pay him for closing down the show before finishing its eighth season.

Asked by ABC news what he would be seeking as compensation, he laughingly relied, "tonnes".

"They're going to actually put it on a scale and go, 'a little more, a little more, add some gold. Bingo!'"

"I'm here to collect," he said. "They're going to lose. They're going to lose in a courtroom."

He told NBC he would return to work, but demanded his take jump from about $2 million per episode to $3 million.

"I'll finish the show, I'll even do season 10 if they want me to, but at this point, because of psychological stress — oh my god — it's $3 mil an episode, take it or leave it."

"Look what they've put me through. Because I'm underpaid right now.

"I'm tired of pretending like I'm not special," he said.

"I'm tired of pretending like I'm not bitchin', a total frickin' rock star from Mars."

"People can't figure me out, they can't process me, I don't expect them to. You can't process me with the normal brain."

Sheen also said he had received support from some other bad boys of Hollywood, including Colin Farrell, Sean Penn and Mel Gibson.

Calling them "radical people", he told ABC: "They didn't give me any advice... It was just love. Occasionally, you know, a giant marquee name comes through on your caller ID. And it's like, 'winning'."

And Sheen is urging his "billions" of fans to make a stand with him to force TV producers into putting Two and a Half Men back on air.

"Rally behind me with radical violence and focus and say that, 'No, we will not stand for this. We will not stand for our man being made the scapegoat when he's made everybody around him rich.

"And now they're punishing them and turning his crew family against him.' You know, it's really not cool, man.'"

Last Thursday, CBS shut down production of Two and a Half Men after Sheen took to calling radio programs to denounce the show's creator, Chuck Lorre.

In a series of statements to radio and the TMZ celebrity website, Sheen railed against Lorre, referring to him as Chaim Levine, the Hebrew translation of the TV producer's name.

"Last I checked, Chaim, I spent close to the last decade effortlessly and magically converting your tin cans into pure gold. And the gratitude I get is this charlatan chose not to do his job, which is to write," he said.

Using the Hebrew forced Sheen to later deny he was anti-Semitic.

"I was referring to Chuck by his real name, because I wanted to address the man, not the bullshit TV persona," he told TMZ, which said Lorre's birth name is Charles Levine.

The TV series about hedonistic jingle writer Charlie Harper — played by Sheen — has been a hit since it was launched in 2003. It has been nominated for numerous awards, including nods for Sheen at the Emmys and Golden Globes.

The Nielsen ratings agency listed it in fifth place in its latest TV shows survey, with 14.5 million viewers for its last aired episode.

In November, the star filed for divorce from his wife of two years, days after being taken to hospital following a reported drunken incident at a luxury New York hotel involving a porn star.

In addition to his reported substance abuse, Sheen had several run-ins with the law in the 1990s in cases related to drugs, domestic violence and prostitution.

MIKA: This guy is completely off the scale!

Seriously, he thinks he can sue when he's the fool making a complete ass of himself to the world. What Producer/boss would want anyone to work for them if they're doing the rubbish he's doing?

And inevitably, if he continues this trend, he will be one of those 'Fools' who does die from an OD.

[Fuzz]

And inevitably, if he continues this trend, he will be one of those 'Fools' who does die from an OD.

But ya gotta admit, when he does go, he'll be wearing a smile on his face. If he wants to go into the hereafter after spending a drug fuelled maddening sex crazed hazy debaucherous night with a harem of women, who's to argue?

C'mon now, he managed to get his ex wife to go on vacation with his 2 girlfriends. So what if one is a pothead and the other's a pornstar? He's destroying himself in the manner that he chooses. And isn't that really what we all do? None of us are getting out of life alive, and he's choosing this method to do it.

It's just art imitating life.

[ElGuapoSooner]

This guy is on FIRE!! I loved the part about “You should have read the directions before you showed up to party/I'm tired of pretending like I'm not special". I'm happy to support a fellow American in his pursuit of happiness. He seems like he GENUINELY doesn't give a rip. Kinda refreshing in a sense.

[Rehman]

He seems like he GENUINELY doesn't give a rip. Kinda refreshing in a sense.

I agree. Watched him on Piers Morgan's CNN talk show. He's in The Zone. He made me rethink the Meaning of Life. I wanted to shake his hand. Go Carlos Go!! (Please?)
