Charlie Sheen says he is ‘living the dream’ but few would agree.
Although Charlie defended his unconventional lifestyle to a British newspaper it has him facing a custody battle for his twin sons as well a cancelled prime-time TV show, and various major media outlets basically shunning him.
The 45-year-old actor has spoken out about his former drug-fuelled partying, saying what he can remember of it, had been ‘epic’ and is not sitting around feeling sorry for himself, despite his hit sitcom ‘Two And A Half Men’ being axed last month. ‘I’m not complaining. Everybody says I have nine lives but I have to be careful because I don’t know which one I am on’, he said.
He describes himself as having ‘tiger blood’ running through his veins and added: ‘It boils and it fuels you. It boils in a state that would eclipse a microwave.’ Unrepentant Sheen said how his current two lovers, one a former porn star and the other a former nanny, ‘rule’ him, saying his ‘goddesses rule the kingdom.’
‘The Two and A Half Men’ star calls the people who criticise his lifestyle ‘po-faced hypocrites’, saying he is only speaking the truth because he feels people are sick of hearing mundane publicists statements.
Charlie recently made the Guinness Book of World Records for being the fastest man to get a million Twitter followers. ‘You ride down the face of a tsunami and tell me you don’t feel bitchin. This is the dream,’ he said of his life.
After being hospitalised in October, when he wrecked a hotel suite at the New York Plaza and being in and out of rehab, the star insists he is currently clean and sober and feels that his body can handle the partying. Charlie smokes 40 cigarettes a day but says he has the lungs of a non-smoker and says he has no problems with his liver or kidneys despite them hurting ‘a little bit during the party.
The newly sober Sheen is dealing with his addictions in his own way at home and has branded Alcoholics Anonymous ‘ridiculous’ He labelled AA as a ‘book of lies’ and says he’s doing things his own way but is not sure whether he will drink again – adding: ‘How do you turn down a perfect 1982 Petrus?’
The father-of-five’s ex Denise Richards, 40, will currently not let Charlie see their two daughters Sam, six, and Lola, five. Richards, who was married to Sheen between 2002 and 2006, has been left so ‘disgusted’ by his behaviour that she thinks it’s too much of a ‘risk’ to let their daughters near him. Richards claims that at least one of the ‘goddesses’ is using drugs, a claim vehemently denied by Sheen.
Sheen is also said to have invited Richards to take part in the now infamous photo shoot with the goddesses and his two sons with ex Brooke Mueller, which she refused. It is alleged that Sheen then sent several strong-worded text messages to Richards following her refusal.
He is also confident that he will win custody of 23-month-old twins Bob and Max, who were taken by police this week and returned to his estranged wife Brooke Mueller. But he admitted he is in the dark about the boys’ whereabouts and says he is disappointed in the system because it’s not like the America he was raised in. The America Charlie was raised in obviously must have had some serious flaws – it produced him.
