EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW: Charlie Sheen Breaks Silence, Tells Radar: 'Story Overblown & Overplayed'
Posted on Oct 27, 2010 @ 01:26PM
Charlie Sheen has broken his silence about his crazed coke and booze binge with a prostitute that left him in a New York hospital early Tuesday morning.
Speaking exclusively to RadarOnline.com, the Two and a Half Men star downplayed claims he trashed his posh room at The Plaza Hotel, in a frantic bid to find his wallet and cell phone after partying with a hooker.

“Oh my man, I’m fine,” he told RadarOnline.com’s Senior Executive Editor Dylan Howard, when asked about his condition after being carted off to the hospital for a mental health evaluation.
“The story is totally overblown and overplayed as far as the reality of the scenario.”

Sheen spoke to RadarOnline.com via text message shortly after he arrived home in Los Angeles on a private jet Tuesday night.
Earlier Tuesday, he had checked out of New York Presbyterian Hospital, where he underwent a psychiatric evaluation.

As RadarOnline.com previously reported, the Emmy nominated and Golden Globe winning actor was naked and out of control when cops burst into his trashed suite, next to the room where his ex-wife Denise Richards and their two young daughters - Sam, six, and Lola, five - were staying.
He was found naked and in an altered state, according to cops.
Sheen told RadarOnline.com he had no plans to reveal exactly what happened in Room 1832: “I know what went down and that’s where it will stay... under wraps.”

The New York Police Department said Sheen, 45, appeared "intoxicated" and was reportedly offered a choice of hospitalization - or arrest. He chose the hospital.
The woman, who was also naked, claimed she feared being attacked after the star went berserk following an argument and began screaming at her and throwing furniture.

Sheen’s ‘I’m fine’ declaration to RadarOnline.com followed claims from his own rep that the hell raising actor had an "adverse allergic reaction" to pills he'd been taking.
"Charlie had an adverse allergic reaction to some medication and was taken to the hospital," his publicist said in a statement.
NYPD spokesman Paul Browne said no complaints were made and there was no arrest.

Sheen was not expected to face any criminal charges.
Sheen, who has admitted to using cocaine in the past and paying for hookers, had his meltdown just weeks after he spent 30 days in rehab following domestic abuse charges filed by his other ex-wife, Brooke Mueller.

He agreed to treatment as part of a plea deal to avoid jail after threatening to kill Mueller during a domestic violence incident last Christmas in Apsen, Colorado.
Sheen, the highest-paid actor on US TV, is expected to return to work as soon as Friday.

What coke binge, ROL? NYPD report says no drugs - in particular, no coke and no drug paraphenalia found in his room. I've see the room and it was not even messy. Why lie about this, ROL?

I've seen pics of the room and I agree with him. The facts were lost here on ROL and what was left was incredibly ENHANCED for website traffic purposes. This was no big deal. He was drunk/no coke and upset because of missing wallet.

I'm afraid that this is gonna end tragicly. The writing appears to be on the wall. Hope not.

Denise run don't defend this guy anymore- why are you even dating him again?
Posted Wed, 10/27/2010 - 2:43pm
You effn' idiot. Denise never defended him. Listen to her interview again. WTF are you smoking?

another drug addict/alcoholic, doing what he wants to do when he wants to do it - it will unfold just like it is supposed to, so that some others do not go down this sordid path - the shame, guilt and pain this guy is in has no other equal...

First it's a common celeb strategy to take the defensive and play the victim. Charlie is no victim. He's a longtime addict with serious violent outbursts even with his family. I think he will protect his image all the way to his death bed.

Charlie never has taken the defensive to any certain degree. It's just that if he does anything at all, it's ridiculously enhanced and built up by media organs. ROL was a classic example yesterday. NYPD said no coke/no drug stuff in room.

THIS is exactly why I won't read Radar anymore. This ENTIRE story because you supposedly got 2 generic, vague partial sentences from Charlie, and those statements pretty much go against everything everyone has said, cops, hospital, etc...

It's all good, room 1932 will get new furniture, the prostitute got payed, and Charlie got to check out early.
