“This season is definitely more about seeing other character’s story lines, it’s getting to know everyone else in the family.  Damon is still trying to find himself, he’s still not really quite sure if he fits in anywhere in life really,” Charlie said about his character.

Damon Drecker is the son of Ray Drecker, the male hooker who has everyone swooning in the Detroit suburbs. "He’s reaching out to anyone and anything that will accept him,” Charlie explained about Damon.

Without revealing too many details about the show, he said that his character finds himself in the middle of an emergency “that almost threatens one of Ray’s biggest clients.”

On and off set the characters have grown close.  Charlie, who is 20 and is just learning to navigate the streets of Los Angeles behind the wheel of his own car, but got some instructions from his co-star Anne Heche on freeway driving.  “Anne’s husband gave her a ride to the set one day but he had to go pick up the kids so Anne asked me for a ride home.  I told her about my fear of freeways, so she said ‘give me your keys’ and she took my keys and drove fast as hell down the freeway. She drove really fast but I wasn’t afraid because she knew what she was doing,” Charlie remembered.

As for the adult nature of the show, Charlie said it isn’t that exciting for the younger actors. “The kids are not on the set while the sex scenes are filmed, not because we’re not allowed but because the kids aren’t usually in the scene when that is happening.”

Check out Charlie as Damon Decker on Hung on Sunday at 10pm on HBO.

Gary Gardner, the stepfather of Millie Barrera, one of the four tragic victims slain last November in what was dubbed “The Cathouse murders,” is speaking out  about the arrest yesterday of one of the alleged perpetrators.

In an exclusive interview with RadarOnline.com, Gardner shared that the arrest has brought back painful memories for everyone.  He also said that although he was glad the alleged murderer of his daughter was alive to face justice, part of him wishes he was dead.

“I’m so happy that the police have finally caught the man they believe was the mastermind behind the killings,” Gardner told RadarOnline.com. “He has a history of committing crimes, with a long criminal record behind him, and was a cage fighter like the other guy they already arrested.”

The alleged murderer, Denny Phillips, was captured Monday after a violent shoot out with police outside of a Tulsa motel. Phillips, who was shot three times in the exchange of fire, was taken to a hospital where he remains in critical condition, though he is expected to survive.

Gardner told RadarOnline.com that the shoot out and Phillips subsequent capture brought out mixed emotions in him. “I am not feeling any sense of relief,” Gardner said. “I mean I was glad on the one hand that he was alive so we could hear what happened to my daughter and the others, and why, but the father in me wished they had killed him.”

Tulsa police say they became aware of Phillips when an informant told Sergeant Mike Huff that Phillips was trying to sell two guns – guns that Huff recognized as having been stolen from his home during a break-in last week.

Meanwhile, Oklahoma County District Attorney, David Prater said Phillips has been a person of interest in the deaths of Casey Barrientos, Jennifer Ermey, Millie Barrera and star of the HBO reality series Cathouse Brooke Phillips. The four were found dead on November 9 after being shot, stabbed, slashed and set on fire inside an Oklahoma City home. Barrera and Phillips were also pregnant at the time of the murders.

Gardner is happy that they finally have Phillips in custody, but said, "My daughter and her unborn baby, along with the other victims, deserve justice.”

EXCLUSIVE AUDIO INTERVIEW: 'Heroes' Star Reveals Haiti Devastation From His Trip Home


Posted on Jan 18, 2010 @ 02:41PM - 3 comments

In an exclusive audio interview with RadarOnline.com Haitian Heroes star Jimmy Jean-Louis tells of the devastation of his homeland from his first hand eye witness perspective.

Read Full Recap Of Jimmy Jean-Louis' Heartbreaking Interview

Armed with a video camera Jean-Louis is delving deep into the horror and destruction that has befallen Haiti, reporting back to RadarOnline.com in the hopes that the world will rally around the impoverished nation and send the support it so desperately needs.

Jean-Louis is on a rollercoaster ride of emotions as he thankfully reunites with his parents, that he initially feared were dead, only to then go on and see the destruction that has been wreaked on the developing country and on his fellow Haitians as they struggle to come to terms with their mind numbing heartbreak and disbelief.

A magnitude 7.0 earthquake ripped through Haiti last week, the largest earthquake to hit the country in the past 200 years. Behind it it has left a trail of destruction and devastation that one is not even able to imagine or comprehend.

Heroes Actor Jimmy Jean-Louis Reunited With Family in Haiti

Jean-Louis says that initially when he arrived it was wonderful to see his parents alive and relatively well but then the reality of the situation that his beloved homeland is now in, hit him, and hit him hard.

"It was nice and it was peaceful [to see my parents] in a sense. We had already come to terms that I was coming. It was just a nice relief to see just each other. It was calm and very emotional but just nice to be able to actually see them and hug them - a genuine simple hug. That was great.

"As I said their house had collapsed, I had a house that had collapsed completely and another house next door and there are people underneath the house. From going around the neighborhood, from where we are everyday, I don't know how many times a day, I don't know how many times they come and they bring dead bodies - just to burn them. You see them being burned, you smell them - the most horrific picture I have ever seen."

Describing the obvious horror of the situation, Jean-Louis says it is impossible to imagine the scale of devastation without witnessing it in person. "It is so terrible what just happened to Haiti. I think people still don't have any idea with all the pictures you see, with all the videos you see, you still have no idea of how bad it is, you really don't. It is extremely bad."

Obviously emotionally overwhelmed, Jean -Louis goes on to say that he believes the destruction is actually worse than anyone is estimating as there are many areas that have been hit where rescue crews and news media have still not ventured.

"So far people concentrate around the airport but then there are other cities where in some of them 80 percent of the city is down, the entire city, and they haven't received any help."

Going on to say, "Everywhere you go the buildings are just flat on the floor sitting there, what I mean is they are flat  and whoever was inside the buildings are inside and they can not have any help because nobody would know how to get underneath. So you pass by these buildings and they smell of bodies. I feel so sad about this situation."

Jean-Louis continues to describe the obvious horror, telling a heartbreaking story of a close friend who has lost his entire family, including his two young children and wife. And a bewildered and distraught man he encountered in town that tells of his wife and three children being trapped under his house - begging for help, but there's nothing anyone can do.

Jean-Louis asks, "What can you do? What can anybody do? Where do you start?"

Chillingly he says, "They are estimating it is probably 100 - 200 Thousand. All the people though think it could be a lot more - a lot more."

One thing that you can do to help the poor people of Haiti is donate. The Haitians are in desperate need of medical and financial aid. Please help by donating to Jean-Louis' charities of choice: Hollywood Unites For Haiti and The Pan American Relief Fund.
