Apocalypse Charlie

One of the most talked about actors today, Charlie Sheen makes headlines with his personal troubles: be it drug problems, alcohol abuse, or his constant fights with his wife. The last two years of this famous actor's life have not been easy. In 2009, he was arrested for felony menacing, third-degree assault and criminal mischief. In 2010, he caused nearly $7,000 in damages to a hotel room from which he had to be removed by police and taken to hospital. This year, Charlie Sheen is once again hospitalized for abdominal pain. The final straw came when he was dismissed from his popular CBS sitcom, Two and A Half Men. Charlie was born into a well-known Hollywood family. He is the son of acclaimed actor Martin Sheen (Apocalypse Now) and Emilio Estevez's brother. Charlie knows what life in the limelight is all about and what the rules are to play by. He is also accustomed to making headlines with his drug and alcohol problems, as well as with his violent outbursts.
