Charlie Sheen

"I'm tired of pretending I'm not special. I'm tired of pretending I'm not a total bitchin' rock star from Mars."

“I'm on a drug. It's called Charlie Sheen. It's not available because if you try it you will die. Your face will melt off and your children will weep over your exploded body." – Charlie Sheen

It is incredibly sad and disturbing to see the media exploit Charlie Sheen. He clearly needs help yet networks only care about booking him for an interview so they could bring in money. Lady Gaga recently said in an interview with Anderson Cooper that people want to see her fail. “They want to see me fail. They want to see me fall on stage. They want to see me vomiting out of a nightclub. Isn’t that the age we live in?” They will build her up and make her feel like the greatest person on earth who can do no wrong. Once she slips up, the media will destroy her. The media hasn’t just done this with Charlie Sheen or Lady Gaga. The media constantly rips on people like Britney Spears and Lindsay Lohan. These are people who have serious issues yet everyone finds enjoyment in making fun of them. They have serious addictions to drugs and alcohol and mental issues but the media does not care. Living in Hollywood is not doing them any favors.

Charlie Sheen is not in the right state of mind and has stated many times he is going to embrace this “rock star life.” If he does not attempt to get clean, he will end up dead. The media will then talk about how terrible it was that he never completely got sober and feel sorry for him and his family, yet the media contributed to his downfall. They are the ones that are encouraging him to do interviews. They are the ones who are building him up and are waiting for that notice that he lost his battle with drugs and alcohol.

I attached these videos of Craig Ferguson talking about Britney Spears a few years ago and Charlie Sheen Monday night. Craig Ferguson himself personally struggled with his addictions to drugs and alcohol and was actually going to commit suicide but went to a bar before hand to have a drink. He got so drunk that he forgot to kill himself. He has been sober ever since then and has gone on to be incredibly successful.
