The Eye has inadvertantly gotten into the habit of looking to answer the age old question of whether there can be an even further downward spiral after attempting to slit your wife's throat for Christmas. Drunk, cokehead, hooker aficianado, and alleged actor Charlie Sheen has provided my lone peeper with the prime opportunity. This morning, he was rushed to a hospital in Los Angeles. Wild guess here--drug overdose.
Neighbors, who most certainly hate his guts by this point, say he was removed by stretcher this morning around seven after a long, loud party in which the neighborhood was treated to numerous renditions of Red Hot Chili Pepper songs. They also say Sheen was accompanied by two young ladies. Wild guess, but they were either porn stars or hookers.
A Sheen representative released a statement saying that 911 had been called at around 6:35 AM because of severe abdominal pain. The rep also said a crowd had gathered at the hospital, including the two porn star/hookers, sheen’s parents, and his ex-wife, Denise Richards. While his condition is said to be “serious,” there is no indication that is an official medical opinion. So even though this probably is not a deathwatch, it is still nice to see all the loved ones who are going to eventually contest the will gathering together to fake sincere concern.
It beats me where Emilio Estevez is. He is certainly not busy acting anywhere.
Who is the big loser in all this--besides Sheen, who is probably going to be stuck paying overtime to those hookers? I could say CBS and Warner Brothers, since they have heavily invested in Sheen’s cooperation for three more years of Two and a Half Men at nearly $ 2 million per episode in salary for him alone, but I really think it is the people who are still keeping that putrid show on the air. They are not only enabling him, but since he is essentially playing himself on the show, enthusiastically enjoying his crash and burn.
