URGENT CHARLIE SHEEN UPDATE

Posted on | March 5, 2011 | 32 Comments

There was a sudden surge of traffic caused by people Googling “Charlie+Sheen+insane,” which tipped me there might be some breaking news involving the deranged narcissist. So I checked, and there’s this from the Los Angeles Times:

Charlie Sheen’s estranged wife said this week that the TV star vowed to decapitate her and send her severed head to her mother. But Brooke Mueller’s statements filed in court are not enough for the Los Angeles Police Department to open a criminal investigation.
This week a judge issued a temporary restraining order against Sheen, who has pleaded no contest twice on domestic violence charges. But LAPD officials said they’ve determined that they can only launch a probe if Mueller files a complaint, which as of Friday she has not.
“It is incumbent on her to come forward and make a police report,” said Los Angeles Police Sgt. Mitzi Grasso. “Our hands are tied.”

There’s also this bizarre headline:

Charlie Sheen latest:
‘I’m Jewish, off to Haiti’
Sheen . . . said he should have mentioned his Jewishness when he was accused of anti-Semitism last week.
“My mom is Jewish. . . . So, I guess that would make me Jewish, and my children Jewish.
“And Brooke, my ex-wife is Jewish. So, I guess I should’ve rolled all that out too,” he added.

(Of course, he reportedly threatened to kill his ex-wife, but …)

In his latest interview Friday, Sheen revealed that he plans to travel to quake- and disease-wracked Haiti, with actor friend Sean Penn. “We’re going to do a couple things first and then it looks like we’re heading down,” he said.
“I’m excited as hell because, you know, if I can bring the attention of the world down there, then clearly this tsunami keeps cresting,” he added.

News of Sheen’s impending visit will surely bring hope to prostitutes and cocaine dealers in Port Au Prince, whose incomes have been devastated in the wake of the January 2010 earthquake.

In other Charlie the Human Trainwreck news:

Denise Richards will not let her two kids near Charlie Sheen because she thinks it’s just too risky … sources tell TMZ.
Denise, we’re told, is “disgusted” with Charlie and the way he’s living, and believes he would put 6-year-old Sam and 5-year-old Lola at risk.

And here, I think, the most likely cause of all those people Googling for “Charlie+Sheen+insane” — home video of Charlie Sheen that aired Friday on Dateline NBC:

If you’re in a mood to laugh at steadily worsening mental illness, you’ll want to read this:

Be sure to check back often at The Other McCain for the latest news of Charlie Sheen’s demented rantings and lunatic behavior. Also, follow the hilarious hijinks of Libyan madman Moammar Qaddafi, even though he’s never been married to Denise Richards or starred in a primetime sitcom.

UPDATE: Wow! A DJ in Phoenix scored an exclusive interview with Bob Maron, the vintage watch dealer who was the first person Sheen followed on Twitter. “I think Charlie’s got it together. … Some people would call it ‘manic.’ He would call it ‘winning.’”

UPDATE II: Charlie Sheen’s Hollywood Bedlam.

    “What do you recommend, talk to the cops or call TMZ?”
    Honestly I am not sure that this shows he is insane or just milking the press.

    On the other hand there is this,

    Charlie Sheen’s estranged wife said this week that the TV star vowed to decapitate her and send her severed head to her mother. But Brooke Mueller’s statements filed in court are not enough for the Los Angeles Police Department to open a criminal investigation.

    That shows me that someone in LA is crazy, or needs to be fired as much as Charlie Sheen does.

    God bless Sean Penn for his relentless work in Haiti.

    His run on Two and a Half Men is about over…I mean..how many years can you make a show about a narcissistic drunk who chases women be successful. I think he’s drumming up publicity for his next big show about…you guessed it, a narcissistic drunk partyer who never grew up, drives a Mercedes convertible and chases women.

    If I had a penny for every time I threatened to chop off my wife’s head and send it to her mother, or vice versa, I would be a very rich man. That says nothing to Sheen’s sanity/insanity, that is just one of the joys of being married.

    But yes, he’s nutz.

    Harry Palms is back! Must be the weekend!

    Hey!

    I did not think Charlie’s rants about Chaim were so much anti Semitism than just anti Chuck Lore-ism. But as for Charlie being Jewish, Mazel Tov. But he is still on grape juice for Passover this spring.

    In 22 years of marriage, I’ve never thought of, much less threatened, violence against her. I have sometimes made remarks along the lines of, “Women — can’t live with ‘em, can’t shoot ‘em through the head and bury them in the woods.” But these are obvious jests, an expression of the unwinnable nature of the War of the Sexes.

    I got the very best wife in the world, so I’ve got no cause to complain, although sometimes I still do. (Fact: No woman ever made a “quick trip” to Wal-Mart. If my wife tells me she’s going to “run by Wal-Mart,” I never expect her home until at least four hours later.) She has far more cause to complain about me.

    Chuck is clearly the complete asshole in the CBS affair.

    I’ll take Charlie over Chuck Lore any day of the week.

    I’d take one or two of his Goddesses too.

    If I could.

    Although I’d have to say “pass” on the 8-balls.

    And the way that “Progressives” act, we can never be positive that they are not being serious, either. Maybe Charlie did mean it. But, he is absolutely crazy, too.

    Both my wife and her mother are dead now and I would give my life to be able to threaten them again, just one more time.

    Chuck is clearly the complete asshole in the CBS affair.

    Ha! I suspect there’s more than one of those badges available
    in this drama.

    Here’s hoping either or both of them can use it productively.

    The opportunity seems ripe for it, while hundreds of cameras
    and blogs are standing by to record every little step.

  • ggwashere

    God is unleashing Charlie Sheen on Haiti. One disaster after another. He must really hate the country.

  • ggwashere

    I see Charlie Sheen as a man on a precipice. It seems as if somehow, someway, he’s ‘acting out’ for all of us — expressing the kind of unbridled ego [which is not really so much an exaggeration of how people may tend to THINK -- they just never say aloud] which either leads to physical death or to revelation.

    If I were going to put money on who would experience a kind of life changing revelation first – Sheen or Chuck Lorre for ex. – I’d put my money on the guy who seems rather fearless in saying what’s on his mind — no matter the consequences.

    And by doing it so publicly, he’s taking the masses on the journey along with him.

    We’ve all heard the phrase, “a leaf falls and the whole world trembles”?

    My sense is that Sheen’s playing a very important role in the evolution of the collective ‘western’ consciousness.

    And kind of like a modern Judas (detestable to so many) he may well be playing a pivotal role.

    And now Harry Palms is sockpuppeting himself. Maybe next weekend he’ll slip himself a roofie and then accuse himself of doing naughty things to himself while he was unconscious.

  • Great Gig

    Thanks for being your usual miserable self, my friend!

    Now, be little careful… else, once in blue moon…

    I might really pay you for this favor!

    Even my lovely wife knows that it might hurt quite bad… when I ‘payback’ ;)

    I hope you have developed ‘tougher’ skin!

  • Dan

    RSM,

    you’re missing the obvious here.

    When Sheen declares that he’s up for decapitation, and sending the severed head to the mother-in-law, ——————– there are married men all across the fruited plain, living lives in quiet desperation, meek, beta-providers, who, in some frequent Walter Mitty fashion, harbour similar fantasies.

    He’s but giving voice to the voiceless, hope to the hopeless, —————– and a laugh to men like me, bachelors, ———– in other words, disinterested observers.

    Now in other news, ———————- it seems part of his “wedge” has decamped for parts unknown. So now Sheen is “accepting applications.”

    This guy is a hoot!

  • Joe

    I assumed Paul Mitchell was being sarcastic.

    Of course the true insane behavior is Charlie Sheen hanging now with Sean Penn.

    Rather than watch Charlie’s decline, perhaps we can figure out a way to save this guy? http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1363255/Rescuers-attempts-save-man-fell-190ft-abandoned-shaft–despite-video-showing-breathing.html I guess we are not like Chile afterall.

  • Joe

    gg, it is strange when you have a sock puppet conversations with yourself. You are like some sort of dimented troubled child.

  • Joe

    demented. My bad.

    “Charlie Sheen’s estranged wife said this week that the TV star vowed to decapitate her and send her severed head to her mother. ”

    Yes, but you know, he didn’t mean Decapitation -Decapitation, Whoopi Goldberg ;)

    @Joe

    I can’t say I have any sympathy for “GG”.

    Sympathy is reserved for the the naive. Certainly not for people who know what they’re walking into, do it anyway, and then whine about it once they do.

    It’s kind of like asking me if I have sympathy for cross-dresser who has walked back into a red-neck bar after having done so three times already…..each time having left by tearfully crying “abusers! abusers!”.

    Now he may well feel he has something to prove. Maybe he’s trying to change the world, I dunno. Maybe he just likes being abused, who knows?

    But will I feel sympathy for him if he walks back in a 4th time…….acting the very same way he did the first 3 times?

    I don’t think so. ;-)

    My definition of stupid is doing the same thing over and over again, hoping for a different result.

    RE. TheOtherGG/Joe

    My definition of stupid is doing the same thing over and over again, hoping for a different result.

    Sounds like something i said to my wife yesterday…

    that cross dresser going into the red-neck bar must have a mental illness and i would feel sorry for him….it looks like you and Joe think *tough love* is the answer to problem children, i don’t, i’m a real softie…my thoughts are that we all have eternal relationships with each other so eventually you’ll have to get your love back for gg…better sooner then later…

    Charlie Sheen going to Haiti proves drug abuse is not a victimless crime. Won’t someone think of the poor Haitians?
