So how much cocaine did Charlie Sheen do? Enough to kill Two and a Half Men. Wha wha wha... I keed. I keed. Well, sort of.
I have mixed feelings about the machete weilding, tiger blood drinking warlock. This whole Charlie Sheen thing has been the craziest media frenzy I have ever seen. I am one of those one million sheep who followed him on Twitter as soon as I heard he'd started "tweeting" his rampage. I find myself constantly refreshing my People.com page just to see if there might be anymore Charlie news. I need a twenty four hour Charlie ticker. With all of the terrible things going on in the world right now... this is most important. Charlie knows this, he feeds off of it, he lives it. Frankly, I'm much more interested in his antics than anything going on in the middle east. Shallow and narrow minded? Yes, but how am I any different from the rest of the herd. Don't you wish you had tigerblood and Adonis DNA? I sure as hell do!
I have always been a huge Charlie Sheen fan. I don't recall the first thing I ever saw him in, but, thinking back my mind keeps going to his bit in "Ferris Buellers Day Off". Even at seven, I knew this guy was super hot and would always be around. He's one of those guys who even when he's not doing anything, he's massively famous. Problem is, now we have a 45 year old brat on our hands.
Now, being that we are living in the techno age, Charlie has his very own media via personal webcasting, twitter updates, etc. He even texts his own quotes to People.com. They must be on red Charlie alert. (like that?) Apparently he has no PR, someone to tell him he's coasting into the stratosphere with his off the wall comments. Now, of course I don't know the truth behind all of this. What is real and what is fabricated. Charlie being Charlie or just what the media wants us to see of his antics. This morning, an article quoted Charlie talking about his co-star (and who I always wanted to believe... friend) Jon Cryer, calling him a "troll" and a "turncoat". Also siting that he never called him during all of this so when Charlie is put up for a multi million dollar role and Cryer wants a supporting role he won't do it. Now this just pisses me off. It's petty and childish to say something like that. Come on now.
Now as far as rumors go of Rob Lowe or (gag me) John Stamos taking over the lead role on "Men", I want to know is this as a new character or for the role of Charlie Harper? It sooo won't work. I mean when Charlie took over for Michael J. Fox on "Spin City" he got his own role and it actually worked...well. I'm not so sure this time. I like Rob Lowe and John Stamos well, he's ok. I really like him in Glee and as Uncle Jessie but other than that, he kind of creeps me out. I digress, "Two and a Half Men" cannot be changed so drastically during the ninth freakin' season. It just won't work.
I'll continue to be a Charlie fan. I like the guy. He's crazy and more than a little narcisistic. But didn't we help make him that way?
