If i'm being honest, i think he's a legend. Not that i condone his behaviour as a father or anything but deep down i admire him. I think his manic-ness is not because he is currently high, its a sort of after effect of massive sessions on the gak / crack.

 

 

i just don't get it though, the guy is fucking rich as all get out and he's doing crack!?

why, if he can afford all the the really good substances, is the crazy fucker doing crack?

 

because after hitting like an express train for 30 years, coke probably doesn't touch the sides anymore

 

yeah thats all I could come with as well, moderation is a wonderful thing.

Charlie Sheen's "Torpedo" bombs in Detroit

 

 

After hearing chants of "Refund! Refund!" and being booed, even Charlie Sheen knew his "Violent Torpedo of Truth" had bombed on its debut in Detroit on Saturday night. Skip related content

 

Sheen, until recently the highest paid actor on a TV sitcom for portraying a skirt-chasing bachelor on "Two and a Half Men," staged a live variety show to prove to the TV producers who fired him that he was on the mend from more than a year of legal troubles and drug and alcohol abuse.

 

Sheen, 45, became a media spectacle in recent weeks with a series of off-the-wall interviews in which he flaunted his lifestyle, amassed a Twitter following of more than 3 million, made "winning" his mantra and boasted of having "tiger blood" that gave him a superhero's constitution.

 

Sheen's "My Violent Torpedo of Truth: Defeat is Not an Option" show was meant to prove that he still had what it takes to please audiences but critics panned it and audiences thought it could use work, at best.

 

The comedy revue with rapper Dirt Nasty and comedian Kirk Fox, among others, brought catcalls from the audience and not even Sheen's girlfriend "goddesses" could win fans.

 

Twenty minutes after the show had ended, some 750 die-hard fans lingered in the theatre and Sheen returned to the stage flanked by his gals.

 

"This is an experiment. We're working some shit out," he said.

 

Sheen and his troupe proved awkward at best. Fans had thought they might hear inside stories of the drug-and-drink-fuelled parties and wild nights that hospitalized him and sent him to rehab.

 

But they never heard a single tale and nearly every one of Sheen's monologues and comedy skits had to be aborted due Sheen's inability to handle the rowdy, unhappy audience.

 

"NEEDS A LOT OF WORK"

 

"I think this show needs a lot of work," Ron Ruff, 52, of Fenton, Michigan, told Reuters after the show.

 

"It was a bomb tonight. When you have people walking out and it's only the first quarter of the show, well, that's not a good sign."

 

Early reviews from critics were just as bad. "Call it 'tiger blood' or 'Adonis DNA' if you will. Just don't call it entertainment," wrote The Hollywood Reporter's David Rooney.

 

Sheen, 45, has been a media sensation for more than a year following his arrest in December 2009 for assaulting his then-wife Brooke Mueller. He has since pleaded guilty to assaulting Mueller and spent time in rehab.

 

But his troubles did not end and more recently, media reports have told of Sheen's wild Hollywood lifestyle, parties and porn stars. Those reports and a recent rehab led to his firing from "Two and a Half Men" by Warner Bros. television and the CBS TV network.

 

Sheen has retaliated by suing the show's producers for $100 million (62 million pounds) and he has openly ridiculed producer Chuck Lorre. The parties remain in litigation and the live shows were meant to be something of a public comeback for Sheen.

 

The Detroit performance was opening night of 22 shows in 20 U.S. and Canadian cities. About 4,700 tickets were sold for the show at the Fox Theatre in downtown Detroit and only a few seats were empty.

Fair play to him for coming out and admitting it

Dunno about that like. He apparently got the diagnosis four years ago, and it was 2011 when he was going absolutely wild with his party lifestyle (see post 1 on this thread). I mean it's up to him if/when he makes it public, but I'd hope that whoever he was putting to the sword at that time and since was fully aware of the situation.

 

And it was fairly irresponsible to carry on like that and telling everyone how great it was knowing that it had landed him with HIV.

He claims there's zero chance he's infected anyone. We don't know the facts so hard to comment and if he has infected anyone that's unforgivable. I meant more from the view that he could have just ignored the speculation and it would have gone away eventually

Says he's had unprotected sex twice since the diagnosis and that both women are under the care of his doctor. Whether that means they're infected or not I don't know. Sounds more like he's just told them and they don't know either yet.
