Charlie Sheen was on David Letterman last night to promote his show Anger Management, on FX, which returns on Thursday. He was cagey when Dave asked whether he was still on drugs, implying he was, and he also said he doesn’t regret his epic meltdown. He acted like it was amazing and he fondly remembers that manic, drug-fuelled time in his life. I’m honestly surprised that it’s been nearly two years since Charlie spectacularly left his job as the highest paid actor on television, had a hoard of live-in prostitutes, and coined the most inventive phrases we’ve ever heard from a celebrity. I expected Charlie to spend an extended period of time in rehab, jail or the morgue, but none of that came to pass and Charlie is still around. He’s got a sense of humor about the whole thing, but he does admit that he’s embarrassed he was so vocal during his meltdown, which he calls a “meltforward.” Oh Charlie.

On his meltdown
A lot of it was memorable. A lot of it was experiences I would never otherwise have. I booked a 21 city tour in 33 days with no act.

On what he learned
I guess I’m not a normal person

On if he’s been to therapy
I spent 10 years in therapy. I quit about two years ago. Hey, right around the time of the meltdown… it was kind of a meltforward.

On whether he would go back on Two and a Half Men
I would like to go back, I would like to appear on their final episode.

On the fact that his character got killed off
I am dead but so is the show. They’re doing the best they can. One more season.

On Angus T Jones condemning the show
I haven’t spoken to him I don’t know.

On his relationship with Jon Cryer
He’s great, one of my favorite people. I did [call him a troll] but I retracted it. He’s a genius, he’s one of my favorite costars ever.

On if he’s embarrassed
Of course! Have you seen some of those interviews? That stuff’s out there forever, man. If I had to do it all over, I probably would have been a little less vocal.

On his ‘amazingly descriptive phrases’
It was just part of where my mind was going, thank you. Stuff was just falling out and then there were T-shirts. Boom. It was a trip.

On if he was using crack cocaine back then
I like to call it base. “Crack cocaine,” I love my life. You’re awesome, I love it. Here’s the confusing part. I wish it was crack cocaine. It wish it was an ocean of vodka, a bathtub full of pills. It was just my brain was kind of separated into itself and uh, I just had to take a stand for what was right.

Dave asks “and the cocaine was a factor”?
Not just the meltdown, the previous 30 years, sure.

On if he’s sober now
I don’t really believe in that lifestyle anymore cause it doesn’t seem fair — you guys don’t want me clean and sober, that’s boring!

Please forgive me for saying that on some level I admire how Charlie Sheen is handling this. I hate that I’m saying that and I know he’s a crazy, drug-addled abusive a-hole – I know! But he’s like “yeah, I was embarrassed at how I acted but it’s all good.” Even though he’s a total addicted mess, there’s something appealing about the guy. He’s laughing at himself. I now need to go scrub myself from head to toe.

Over on The Huffington Post they report that Sheen told Letterman that he was about to be a grandfather. This begs the question: which child of Sheen’s is going to give birth? I thought he only had four kids, all little, but a quick glance at Wiki reveals that he has a 28 year-old daughter, Cassandra Jade Estevez, with his former high school girlfriend. That means that Sheen’s latest porn star/hooker girlfriend is younger than his oldest daughter. Of course she is.

Here are the videos of Charlie on The Late Show, thanks to Radar.

Denise Richards, Brooke Mueller and their kids out together in September

This is kind of a heart-warming story of a lone sober, responsible person, picking up the slack in Charlie Sheen’s mess of a life. So Charlie’s last ex wife, Brooke Mueller, entered rehab for the 19th time (literally, I’m not exaggerating) a couple of weeks ago after failing a court-ordered drug test and violating probation. Brooke is facing jail time, but that didn’t make her 19th stay in rehab stick at all. She left rehab after less than a week, using the excuse that she only needed to “detox.” I haven’t been following the updates on TMZ about this, but a quick look reveals that Brooke, 35, was under investigation by Child and Family Services while she was in rehab/detox (she has three and a half year-old twin sons, Bob and Max, with Charlie) and that the boys went to Charlie’s other ex, Denise Richards, to stay. Then Brooke tried to take the boys back, which she can legally do because she has custody still, and had them stay with another relative until she was done with rehab. She decided to do this after a beef with Denise over the fact that Denise wanted to let the boys see their dad, Charlie. Are you eyes glazing over yet? There’s more in this story on TMZ if you’re interested in the stupid details. Addicts are so logical and so concerned about their children’s welfare.

Anyway, again here’s Denise Richards, providing some semblance of normalcy in the lives of sweet, innocent little boys who are used to be cared for by prostitutes and an addict mom. (Not that prostitutes can’t be decent caregivers, especially when compared to Brooke.) Denise told Access Hollywood that the boys can stay with her and her three girls anytime, and that they’re family. The bad news is that they’re back with Brooke now that she’s out of rehab.

The beauty stopped by Access Hollywood Live on Wednesday, where she chatted about her work with ShoeDazzle – which is benefitting the Kidney Cancer Association – and she also spoke about helping Charlie and Brooke care for their 3-year-old twin sons, Bob and Max, while Brooke was reportedly in rehab.

”[The twins] are back with Brooke Mueller,” Denise told Billy Bush and guest co-host Vinny Guadagnino.

With the twins – plus her daughters Sam, 8, Lola, 7 and Eloise, 18 months, Denise had her hands full.

“This is not the first time I’ve had all five, they’re Sam and Lola’s brothers. It was a full house, lots of love and life,” she explained. “Brooke knows anytime, and Charlie, that any time they need help with the boys, that I’m there.”

Despite divorces and past problems, the actress stressed that they put their family first.

“They’re our family and they’re Sam and Lola’s brothers and I can’t imagine growing up without my sister, so anytime she needs help, I’m there for the boys,” she continued. “[Sam and Lola] are the best big sisters to [the boys] and they love them.”

Adding, “I know it doesn’t seem normal, but it is our normal. They’re little kids and I love children, and like I said, it’s our daughter’s brothers, so I can’t say no.”

[From Access Hollywood]

I’ve heard some horror stories about California CFS and I’ve leave it at that. So don’t expect Brooke Mueller to lose custody anytime soon, despite the fact that she’s failing drug tests and is so obviously wasted out of her mind. At least Denise Richards is there to help when needed, but how confusing must it be for those little boys to have to be shuffled around like that? I just feel for them. It’s possible that Brooke will get some jail time and that Max and Bob will have to go live with Denise for a while, but again this is California. That’s not going to happen.

Charlie Sheen has a new interview with Entertainment Tonight, and he ended up talking about his new BFF/wannabe goddess Lindsay Lohan. Unfortunately for all of us, Charlie did not declare his undying love for the Cracken, but he did discuss her issues and he ended up confirming that he wrote a $100,000 check to Lindsay to help her pay her tax bill.

Notorious bad boy Charlie Sheen is opening up to ET’s Chris Jacobs in an exclusive interview, commenting to Chris on a loan he made to his ex co-star Lindsay Lohan.

Sheen struck up a kinship with his co-star Lindsay Lohan on Scary Movie 5, and reportedly gifted the troubled starlet with $100,000.

In speaking with ET, Sheen admitted he had indeed given Lohan an unspecified amount of money, saying only that it was payment she was owed from a project. Although he says he was happy to “pay it forward,” Sheen reveals that he has yet to have received any form of gratitude from Lohan.

“I’m still waiting for a text to say ‘thank you,’” laughed Sheen. “Anything, you know?”

Nevertheless he wished “the best” for Lohan, explaining that she’s “a very good and decent young lady that is just going through a lot.”

He added, “She just needs a little bit of time…People need to give her time to get her s**t together.”

[From Entertainment Tonight]

Wait, what? “Sheen admitted he had indeed given Lohan an unspecified amount of money, saying only that it was payment she was owed from a project”…? Michael K’s ideas for the “project” were a lot grosser than what I’m coming up with. Like, I think it’s just straight up prostitution, as in the “project” was gross, kinky sex with Charlie Sheen. Or drugs, obviously. Maybe Charlie was paying her $100K to drug mule. Yikes.

Here’s the video of the interview – Charlie also says that he gave Lindsay the advice to “lead with humor” – as in, to have a sense of humor about herself and her situation, which… that really isn’t the worst advice. Too bad that the Cracken has NO sense of humor about herself.

Charlie Sheen is a mess. He abuses women. He once shot a woman. He’s a horrible drug and alcohol addict and it’s like he’ll never recover, ever. He loves paying for sex. He loves hanging out with p0rn stars and hookers and dealers. And we still don’t know exactly what happened when all of his cars kept being “stolen” and then driven off cliffs and sh-t. I’m just saying… the man is a MESS. And yet… I still think Charlie is probably more “together” than Lindsay Lohan. Maybe Charlie is just better at “maintaining” some veneer of sobriety or competence, or maybe it’s sexism, or maybe Charlie’s problems stem from his addictions rather than general douchery and entitlement (which is what happened in LL’s case). Like, Charlie is an addict, and his bad behaviors stem from his addictions. Lindsay is a raging a—hole who happens to have drug and alcohol problems. In any case, the Enquirer claims that Charlie is pretty much in love with Lindsay now. He wants her to be his new “goddess”. And he shall name her “Goddess of the Firecrotch.” You know what? The only thing that surprises me is that this hasn’t happened sooner:

It’s a match made in hell! Hollywood’s baddest boy, Charlie Sheen, has fallen for Lindsay Lohan! Charlie has not only given Lindsay $100,000 to pay down her back taxes, he’s wooing her to join his FX sitcom. And that’s not all – insiders say he’s also got romance on his mind!

“Charlies is in hot pursuit of Lindsay,” said a source. “He wants her to be his new goddess. Charlie has a soft spot for lost causes [Editor’s note: Make that a “hard spot”] and with all her problems – not to mention her latest arrest – Lindsay certainly qualifies.”

If anybody can relate to bad behavior, it’s Charlies. “Charlie believes in second chances – and that Lindsay is smoking hot!” said an insider.

While filming their scenes for Scary Movie 5, “Lindsay had Charlie cracking up in bed, which is the world’s biggest turn-on for him,” revealed the source. When Charlie learned Lindsay owed $233,904 in back taxes, the thrice-divorced star reportedly forked over $100,000 of his $250,000 Scary Movie salary to Lindsay to help her chip away at the debt.

“Since then, Charlie’s been showering Lindsay with gifts and bombarding her with emails and phone calls,” said the source. “And Lindsay’s loving it! She’s always wanted a sugar daddy, and a romance is blooming.”

“Charlie thinks that Lindsay has been unfairly trashed in the media, especially over her Liz Taylor movie,” said the source. “He believes that a solid TB gig could help her pay off her debts and rebuild her Hollywood reputation. Now Lindsay’s bragging that she asked Charlie to be her business manager.”

[From The Enquirer, print edition]

I would still like to know how much money Charlie managed to save from Two and a Half Men. Because I was under the impression that he “blew” it all on blow and hookers. So, if he doesn’t have that much money left, how will he be able to afford to be Lindsay’s gross sugar daddy? Ew. Ugh. Don’t make me think about it. Also: Charlie gets turned on by funny women? Are p0rn stars notorious comediennes or something?

Anyway, Gossip Cop’s unnamed sources (?) say that Charlie isn’t pursuing Lindsay. I’m surprised that anyone even cared enough to deny that. You know what? I think I might endorse Charlie and Lindsay becoming a couple. At least the crack-mess will be contained in one general area, right? Unfortunately, it’s looking more and more like Lindsay thinks she’s the new Penny Lane or something – she wants to be the tour bus entertainment for The Wanted. That’s so gross.

Back at the beginning of this month, Radar had a sad/disturbing/slightly funny story about Charlie Sheen and how he’s “back” on the pipe, back on cocaine, and back to spending his money in crazy ways. I don’t really believe it because… I don’t think Charlie ever STOPPED blowing through his money, you know? He’s always been on drugs. He’s always loved partying with hookers and p0rn stars and spending crazy amounts of money on crazy things. Radar claimed Charlie has “a quarter to half an ounce of cocaine delivered to him every single day and was spending nearly $2,000 a day on drugs… He snorts it, he smokes it, and then he watches p0rn. And when he’s not watching p0rn, he’s hired high-end girls to come over.” He has a favorite girl that he likes to call, and he pays her $25,000 a night and he even paid for her “vaginal rejuvenation surgery”. And a new car!

Since we have no idea who this mysterious hooker is, let’s call her “Lindsay Lohan” for argument’s sake. Lindsay and Charlie met while filming scenes for Scary Movie 5, and Charlie was reportedly disturbed by Lindsay Lohan’s lack of professionalism. Let me repeat that: Charlie Sheen, who gets coke and hookers delivered to his home every day, was worried about Lindsay Lohan’s professionalism and ability to function. Allegedly, Charlie was trying to take the young crackie under his wing, which I imagine is some sort of euphemism for a really disgusting sexual act. And surprise! Lindsay and Charlie ended up “friends” and Charlie “bought” something for her too – he paid off a big chunk of LL’s 6-figure tax bill:

Don’t ever say Charlie Sheen’s not the charitable type — because he recently cut Lindsay Lohan a $100,000 check to cover the actress’ six-figure tax bill … all out of the goodness of his heart … sources tell TMZ.

Sources close to Lindsay tell us she and Charlie became close pals while on the set of “Scary Movie 5″ back in September — spending a lot of time together both on and off the set. During their bonding period, we’re told Lindsay and Charlie talked about everything — and at one point, Lindsay mentioned her ongoing tax problems.

We’re told Charlie offered to cut her a check then and there to get the IRS off her tail, but Lindsay refused.

Fast forward to last week — sources close to Lindsay tell TMZ, Lindsay’s biz manager received a check from Charlie for $100,000.

We’re told Lindsay was blown away by Charlie’s generosity — and immediately applied the money to her outstanding tax bill.

TMZ broke the story … Lindsay allegedly owed Uncle Sam $233,904 in unpaid taxes for 2009 and 2010 — but thanks to Charlie, that number’s nearly been cut in half.

As we reported, Lindsay’s slated to earn over $2 MILLION by the end of this year — but who knows where that’s going.

[From TMZ]

You know what I don’t believe? I don’t believe that LL only has $233,904 outstanding in taxes. Surely it must be more? Because this crackhead has had tax problems for YEARS. She’s the Wesley Snipes of white, female tax evaders. The California justice system may have thrown up their hands at LL’s crack drama, but I suspect it will be the IRS that gets her in the end.

Anyway, I do have to admit… that was nice of Charlie. I’m assuming it was payment for some kind of services rendered, but still… it was nice of him.

Here are some more new photos of Lindsay Lohan yesterday in NYC. I already covered the other photos of The Cracken’s Double Chin here, in a story about Lady Gaga offering to pay for Lindsay’s Marmont bill. Speaking of Lindsay and Gaga’s friendship (ugh!), these pics are of crackie attending the launch of Lady Gaga’s ‘Fame’ fragrance at the Guggenheim. The dress is extremely budget, and it does not flatter Lindsay whatsoever. That being said, I don’t think Lindsay looks completely awful here. Does she look crackie? Of course. But she doesn’t look like she’s been on a week-long vodka-and-coke bender, you know?

Lindsay is in New York after a quick stop in Atlanta to film her cameo in Scary Movie 5, with Charlie Sheen. Incidentally, this seems to be Lindsay’s latest M.O. – one day of work, followed by weeks of partying to “celebrate” said “work”. Anyway, according to Page Six, Lindsay got along with Charlie. Of course she did:

Legendary ladies’ man Charlie Sheen and Lindsay Lohan shared a bed this week on the set of “Scary Movie 5” — as well as playful pillow talk between takes, Page Six has learned.

“Charlie and Lindsay filmed a love scene,” said a spy. “The scene they were shooting for the movie was of them in bed together.”

We hear the “Scary” script called for Lohan to kiss Sheen, and also to slip into a kinky collar.
Lohan got cold feet about shooting the scene, Page Six reported, and had blown off a string of meetings and flights because she “freaked out” about mocking her public image.

However, “Lindsay was a great sport,” a spy told us. “She was poking fun at herself, and she really got into it and seemed to enjoy it.”

The spy added that the two actors with Hollywood’s most infamous off-screen reputations even “shared some playful pillow talk during shooting.”

“They were ad-libbing,” a source said, and bonding over their reputations between takes. “They were joking that they’ve both had a lot of issues over the past couple of years.”

At one point while filming the horror spoof, Lohan got scared and turned to Sheen: “Lindsay was scared by a sound effect, and actually jumped into Charlie’s arms,” our spy added. “But everything went smoothly and surprisingly on schedule.”

[From Page Six]

So, did they hit it? My general thought is… YES. They hit it. And it was probably epic. Meaning that it was incredibly gross and I can’t even imagine how disgusting it was, but I bet both of them enjoyed it immensely. It’s like when FDR met Winston Churchill for the first time, only with two crackheads and a mountain of coke and lube.

By the way, Lindsay also tweeted this yesterday:

A “Birkin. Mac Computer. Chanel and a jet.” Because Lindsay’s “dreams” are all materialistic and delusional, and “never quit fighting” means “never quit crack heisting”.

Photos courtesy of WENN, Lindsay’s Twitter.

Can you even believe how many acting gigs Lindsay Lohan has booked this year? I would say that she’s on her way to a crackie comeback, except that none of the films have come out yet, and I’m thinking that once they do, The Crackie Comeback will take a major hit. But seriously, it’s kind of mind-blowing that Lindsay has managed to get through a guest stint on Glee, the Elizabeth Taylor movie, The Canyons, and now she’s officially signed on for Scary Movie 5. There were rumors a few months ago that she’d been offered a cameo, and now there are rumors that she’s officially signed on – although her rep says she hasn’t. Yet.

If you don’t know whether to scream or laugh at Lindsay Lohan sometimes, well…here’s your chance to do both!

The comebacking star is going to be in Scary Movie 5, sources exclusively confirm to E! News.

Maybe being the next Anna Faris is just what the doctor ordered for Lohan, who will be seen first in the very under wraps TV movie Liz & Dick, which Lifetime is promoting so far only with a still of the 25-year-old actress dolled up like Elizabeth Taylor, rather than with any juicy scenes from the drama.

While no offer had been made to Lohan as of early July, we hear now that she has officially signed on.

Her rep said that, “as of right this moment,” she had not inked a deal, but all insiders are in agreement that she is definitely doing the movie.

Sources also say that the ever-comebacking Charlie Sheen, despite being uncomfortably killed off in Scary Movie 4, will be back for the next sequel, which is being touted as a complete reboot of the franchise and is due in theaters Jan. 11, 2013.

Well, we know what our Christmas wish will be—that Sheen and Lohan share scenes.

The studio would not confirm the casting news. Meanwhile, Faris has chosen to freeze her number at four and will not be back for the new film.

[From E! News]

Lindsay and Charlie Sheen. I have to think that if Lindsay and Charlie ever partied together, they might have both met their matches. Except… I still kind of think Charlie Sheen might come out of it ahead, you know? Charlie can “maintain” his high while Lindsay gets all cracked-out and she’s like, “OMG, I have to drive somewhere and hit a baby.” As for the movie – I’m sure it will be like all of the others. Dumb toilet humor, pop culture references, sight gags, etc. It’s not like the Crack Comeback Tour is getting Oscar-caliber material, you know?

US Weekly has the story that Charlie Sheen, in his latest jaunt to New York with Denise Richards and their daughters, has trashed yet another hotel room and was banned from all Ritz hotels as a result. Prostitutes were supposedly seen coming and going at all hours, and unlike 2010 when he trashed the Plaza hotel, he made sure his room was far enough away from his ex wife and kids so that they wouldn’t know what was going on.

Only TMZ claims that nothing of the sort happened and they have quotes from Ritz managers who say that Charlie is always welcome there. (US also has a follow-up from Ritz’s PR person who says he’s welcome and that the hotel is in “pristine condition.”) I do think something went down because a) this is Charlie Sheen we’re talking about and b) his rep admits that there was a “dinner with family and friends” that night. Back in 2010, Charlie had a “dinner with family and friends” in which Denise was seated right next to the porn star/hooker who later accused Charlie of assault. So I would bet that dinner led to a night when Charlie took off his fake teeth and let loose with the ladies of the “Barely Legal” series. (He really used to order them like from a catalog.)

Charlie was on Jimmy Fallon this week, Radar has the video here, and I have to admit that he seemed sober-ish. He was funny, he rolled with it, and he didn’t ramble or go off on tangents. He’s on the cover of this month’s Rolling Stone also. (It’s been out a few weeks, but I ignored it.) As for his “drinking” he tells RS “I mean, the shit works. Sorry, but it works. Anyway, I don’t see what’s wrong with a few drinks. What’s your drink? Tequila? Mine’s vodka. Straight, because I’ve always said that ice is for injuries, ha ha.” He’s maintaining, and he’s probably still partying too. That’s Charlie.

Here’s Charlie’s ex, Denise Richards, looking incredible at the Empire State Building. She’s promoting the latest Madea movie she’s starring in Madea Witness Protection. She denies that they’re still sleeping together in that interview with Rolling Stone, but I kind of doubt it.

Can you believe that Charlie Sheen is still around and that he’s no longer inventing new catchphrases and binge raging into the night on live webcam broadcasts? We’ve heard that his neighbors are worried about him lately considering the amount of partying he seems to be doing, but with Charlie that’s incredible relative, isn’t it?

Charlie is back, he’s on FX in a new show called “Anger Management,” and he’s doing press for it. Charlie was on Good Morning America yesterday. (You can watch the video here.) As with every interview that Charlie does, he gave some colorful quotes but they came so fast and seemingly randomly that it’s hard to put into a narrative. For Charlie, though, he seemed calm and collected. He even admitted to having regrets about how much he went off the rails last year. Call me crazy, but he came across as sober-ish and genuine. He even said he was worried about co-host Robin Roberts, who was recently diagnosed with a blood disorder and wasn’t on GMA yesterday. Here’s part of what he said, thanks to Radar.

The sometimes erratic actor, promoting his new TV series Anger Management, appeared cool and collected in his appearance on Good Morning America Monday, as he said he’s not using drugs anymore.

Asked if he’s still drinking, Charlie said, “Who doesn’t? We live in a country where it’s always Miller Time. It’s always happy hour somewhere in the world!”

When asked if drinking was a sound approach considering he’s been to rehab before, Charlie said, “I don’t believe in rehab anymore, it’s not for me,” adding rehab is just not a “one-size-fits-all” cure-all for substance abuse.

As for his new show, Charlie said the chemistry on the set has been great, adding, “There hasn’t been an odd moment there … but there’s always tomorrow.”

Charlie got into the memorable media blitz he conducted during his long and nasty divorce with CBS and Two and a Half Men creator Chuck Lorre, saying, “My biggest regret is going a little too far.”

“I was vocal about people I shouldn’t have been so vocal about,” Charlie added. “I’m grateful we’re able to sit here and talk about it. It is odd to look at the clips and some of the stuff and say, ‘That was me.’”

[From Radar Online]

Charlie said that after he’s done with this show, whenever that is, he wants to concentrate on being a full time dad. I’ll believe that when I see it, but I never thought he’d be on another show again so soon, and sounding semi-coherent either. It’s still hard for me to grasp that he’s really “sober,” whatever that means for him. I get the impression that he’s still using and thinks he has it under “control,” but maybe he’s telling the truth and he’s off the hard stuff. People can change I guess. Keith Richards is still around.

Charlie is in New York along with his ex wife, Denise Richards, and their two daughters: Sam, 8, and Lola, 7, along with Denise’s adopted daughter, Eloise/ It is the first time they’ve visited New York together since his 2010 incident at the plaza with a hooker. Rob Schuter at The Huffington Post quotes a source who explains that “They all flew out Friday together. Both Charlie and Denise have press in NYC, coincidentally. His show premieres Thursday and Denise’s movie opens Friday, so they decided to jump on a private plane together and bring the kids.” Denise has a movie coming out?! IMDB has her in Madea’s Witness Protection this month, along with Blue Lagoon: The Awakening. She also has a guest stint on “Anger Management.”

Charlie is shown out in NY with Denise and their daughter, Lola, yesterday. He’s also shown outside a club in LA on 5-3-12 and at the Stanley Cup Final on 6-6-12. Credit: FameFlynet and WENN.com

Last year was The Year of Cocaine Charlie Sheen. I have such a low tolerance for most of these larger stories of celebrity-breakdowns – at some point (very quickly for me), it just becomes too gross, too tragic, and I don’t even want to watch it anymore (exception: The Cracken, for various reasons). I really thought Charlie Sheen was going to die last year, and I wasn’t interested in watching it. I’m sort of shocked that Charlie is still around – and not only is he still alive, but he’s also got a job and he’s been seeming sober-ish for about nine months. I’m not saying Charlie was actually sober or anything, I’m just saying that the crazy booze-and-blow bender seemed to wind down and Charlie was still crazy with or without the help of drugs. But this too shall pass.

Charlie Sheen has been partying until the wee hours of the morning at his Beverly Hills mansion, and he’s had a number of random vehicles parked in his driveway, RadarOnline.com is exclusively reporting.

Sheen’s ex-wife, Brooke Mueller, also partied at the actor’s home and subsequently suffered a drug relapse, which resulted in yet another trip to rehab. Mueller is on probation for a cocaine possession conviction, but it appears unlikely her relapse will result in her being sent to jail.

Sheen’s neighbors near his swanky Mullholland Estates home tell RadarOnline.com exclusively, “there has been an abnormally high levels of activity at the house all hours of the night. Cars containing scantily clad women arrive very late in the evening and don’t leave until the next day. The women always appear to be wearing the same clothes they arrived in, and looking a little worse for the wear.

There are also a number of random vehicles parked all over his driveway and in front of his house. The party goers, including Sheen, will smoke cigarettes outside in his backyard and swear loudly. It’s becoming a nuisance, and the residents don’t like outsiders lurking around all the time. People move to Mullholland Estates for security and privacy because it’s a gated community. Slash lives down the street from Charlie, and you never hear or see anything odd going on at his house. In fact, he is very low key and very quiet. Too bad some of that doesn’t rub off on Charlie.”

The actor has been “partying because he isn’t working right now. Filming for his new television show, Anger Management, is done for the first season of the show. Things always go awry with Charlie when he isn’t working,” the source says.

Sheen recently told Matt Lauer during a recent interview that he still drinks alcohol, despite having a drug problem in the past. A shocked Lauer said at the time, “You’ve admitted issues with drugs: I don’t know one addiction specialist who would tell a guy in your position, ‘It’s okay to drink’.”

The former Two and a Half Men star responded, “Well, if you do, I should probably go to that guy! I have different theories about the whole thing, one of them is, park near the VIP exit!”

Board certified addiction specialist, Dr. Drew Pinsky previously told us, “I truly worry for Charlie because of his extensive history of drug addiction. Under no circumstances should Charlie, or anyone in recovery from prescription drugs, street drugs, etc., consume alcohol, period. There is no grey area on this. Yes, Charlie does seem to be doing better now than he was last year, perhaps he is on some psychiatric drugs that are controlling his bi-polar issues and mania, but he is holding a loaded gun in his hand by drinking alcohol.”

Sheen’s new TV series, Anger Management, debuts Thursday, June 28 on FX.

[From Radar]

Of course, “a few neighbors complaining” is still a long way away from “hiring ten p0rn stars and hookers to do a mountain of blow while playing with guns for 50 days in a row.” I guess we’ll know it’s serious when Charlie’s cars start ending up in ditches or going off cliffs again (that was always one of the biggest mysteries to me).

Anyway, Charlie Sheen responded to the reports by giving a statement (of sorts) to TMZ. This is what TMZ claims Charlie emailed them (?):

I can’t speak to anyone’s opinion or judgement.
I was there
they were not.
their tepid
hearsay is a baseless
static drone.
a mantra.
their theme.
I refuse to be held hostage by their ‘constitutional’
privelidge,
to judge those
who can and who do.

nabobs.

Can you imagine being so high/crazy that you’re writing haikus to TMZ? Oh, pardon me – FAILED haikus.

I’m shocked that Charlie was not approached to play Richard Burton to Lindsay Lohan’s Elizabeth Taylor. He would have been perfect.
