Just ½ a Man: Charlie Sheen

By February 28, 2011February 9th, 2018Gossip Genie Blog, Social Media

After the last few weeks and his recent interviews, I think its safe to say that Charlie Sheen has in fact, lost his marbles. I am willing to bet James Franco is thanking his lucky stars that his stoner-like Oscar appearance isn’t a trending topic on Twitter after Sheen’s outrageous interviews yesterday. It’s hard for me to understand why these celebrities allow themselves to be a part of this kind of negative media attention. As a non-celebrity of the human population, even I understand the phrase “laying low.” Yes, we understand CBS took away your hit television show (& rightfully so).  And yes, we get that you are the highest paid actor on television. But demanding a 50% raise (Sheen reportedly makes $1.8 million per episode) after causing $7,000 worth of damage to a room in the Plaza Hotel, being drunk and on cocaine, hooking up with a prostitute, I mean a “high paid porn star”, and not to mention his ridiculous statements pertaining to his sobriety, does he really believe he is anything less than an enormous liability.  Here are some top tweets as Charlie Sheen becomes a trending topic on Twitter.

Let us end this with some of my favorite Charlie Sheen quotes from his interviews on The Today Show as well as Good Morning America.

On being on drugs:

I am on a drug. It’s called Charlie Sheen. It’s not available. If you try it once, you will die. Your face will melt off and your children will weep over your exploded body.

On curing himself of addiction:

I closed my eyes and made it so with the power of my mind, and unlearned 22 years of fiction … the fiction of AA. It’s a silly book written by a broken-down fool.

On how he avoids relapsing:

I just don’t do it. I will not believe that if I do something then I have to follow a certain path because it was written for normal people. People who aren’t special. People who don’t have tiger blood and Adonis DNA.

Final thoughts on CBS:

Everybody thinks I should be begging for my job back, and I’m just gonna forewarn them, it’s everybody else who’s gonna be begging me for their job back. … If people think I’m insane or they don’t think that what I’m saying is  true, I have no interest in their retarded opinions.

And finally, on himself:

I’m tired of pretending I’m not a total bitchin’ rock star from Mars.

And there you have it kids, Charlie Sheen has in fact, lost his marbles. Don’t do drugs.
