Does anybody care about Charlie Sheen?

http://omg.yahoo.com/blogs/thefamous/charlie-sheen-demands-3-million-per-episode/739?nc

   This Yahoo! article, from their... OMG! section talks about how Charlie Sheen is demanding three million dollars per episode of Two & a Half Men now that he's quite publicly hated-on everyone involved with the show. He plans to take CBS and Men creator Chuck Lorre to court for breach of contract if they fail to give him ever more money. The writer of the article, Erin Carlson, makes a point of stating the considerable wealth Sheen has amassed as well as including some greater-than-thou quotes from him explaining why he needs more money.

   I only chose this topic because this whole issue is clogging up my RSS feeds and I keep having to see Charlie Sheen's self-righteous face. As the title of this post asks: who cares? My mom is the only human being I know who watches Two & a Half Men, but she doesn't care about this; she'll just watch Conan or DatelineNBC instead. All this because Sheen has obviously had his feelings hurt because people blame his arrogance on drug and alcohol addictions, which makes him even angrier it seems. Now if Charlie could end his temper tantrum and find a nice late-night timeslot on HBO, I think everyone would be a lot happier.

  1. I'm completely with you on this one, as well as all celebrity media coverage. I don't care.

    As for Charlie Sheen, however, its absurd he wants $3 million an episode for a 30 minute show. Someone needs to get him to lay off all that coke or he's going to end up broke with no income at all.

  2. Personally, I'm sick of hearing about it; it's in the news, on tv and all over the radio. Three million per episode? That is ridiculous (especially since it's not even a good show). Some people really believe that there is no such thing as bad publicity, and I'm sure this will just land him some kind of a deal in the end. Celebrities really don't have to adhere to the rules of society. They can just do as they please and make whomever they want mad with no real consequences.
