"I am on a drug, it's called Charlie Sheen," It's not available because if you try it you will die. Your face will melt off and your children will weep over your exploded body."
Charming isn't he? Charlie Sheen has been the center of gossip for a few weeks now. After literally cussing out his managers, calling them names like "Troll", and demanding more money for the hit TV show, Two and a Half Men, he stars on, the self proclaimed "winning loser" has been officially fired from the cast by CBS. Charlie Sheen has definitely had a bumpy ride down Sunset Blvd all starting from his first taste of the limelight when he was nine years old in his father’s 1974 film The Execution of Private Slovik.
Sheen was born Carlos Irwin Estevez in New York City. He moved out to California when his father, Martin Sheen, landed a role in the Broadway play, The Subject Was Roses. Sheen decided to become an actor after he was kicked out of Santa Monica High School for poor grades and bad attendance. Sheen was cast as Charlie Harper in the CBS sitcom Two and a Half Men in 2003 and recieved many nominations and awards for the show. Many say that his role in Two and a Half Men was loosely based on the drug addicted actor.
Sheen has faced multiple problems in the with drugs and alcohol. He has achieved the reputation as a hard partying womanizer and in 1995 Sheen admitted to spending $50,000 on 27 $2,500 a night prostitutes. As of today, Sheen lives at home with his two "Goddesses," Bree Olson and Natty Kenley who take care of him and his two children. Although Sheen's children do not live at home with Sheen, they visit frequently and love the family he has come to call normal.
Even though Sheen got fired from his hit TV show a few weeks ago he has already found another high paying job. On March 10, 2011, Sheen announced that he would be going on a nationwide tour with his Goddesses called, "My Violent Torpedo of Truth/Defeat is Not An Option." The tour will begin in Detroit on April 2, 2011. Obviously people are drawn to the crazy antics of this Hollywood bad boy because the tour sold out in 18 minutes which is a Ticketmaster record.
Sheen has also set a new Guinness World Record for Twitter as the "Fastest Time to Reach 1 Million Followers." It is said that he added an average of 129,000 new followers per day. He has also set the Guinness World Record for "Highest Paid TV Actor Per Episode and was being paid $1.25 million for Two and a Half Men.
Sheen is known as a bad boy Hollywood womanizer but their are also some memorable quotes that the actor has said; especially on his interview with Good Morning America, that have been trending on twitter for the past few weeks. Here are some of his most memorable quotes:
"I probably took more than anybody could survive. I was banging 7-gram rocks, and finishing them, because that's how I roll. I have one speed, I have one gear: go."
"Because I'm me. I'm different. I just have a different constitution, a different brain, a different heart, I've got tiger blood man."
"You borrow my brain for five seconds and just be like 'dude can't handle it, unplug this, because it fires in a way that is, I don't know, maybe not from this terrestrial realm."
"I'm bi-winning. I win here, I win there."
So here he is, Charlie Sheen the self proclaimed "winning loser." People are eating this actor up right now but will he hit a point past no return? How far is too far?
