Charlie Sheen interview to air on GMA Monday, he passed a drug test (Update)
Charlie Sheen passed a urine drug test witnessed and administered by some bigwigs at Radar Online. They also sent his blood and urine to a lab for independent testing. I’m willing to buy that he hasn’t done cocaine in the four days it takes to pass out of your system, but his brain is clearly showing the long term effects of drug use, namely badmouthing the people who made him the highest paid star on television.
ABC scored an interview with Charlie that will partially air Monday on Good Morning America and in full in a one hour special on 20/20 Tuesday night. An hour with a delusional, narcissistic addict who spews nonsensical bile about how everyone is wrong except him. I can’t wait. According to Deadline, ABC is itching to promote the interview during the Oscars, but since the Academy of Motional Picture Arts & Sciences controls what airs during the Oscars they’re demanding that ABC not air promos for Charlie’s interview.
I don’t understand how this is such a “get” for ABC, since Charlie has been giving interviews and quotes to random radio hosts and websites for the past two weeks. He most recently spewed a bunch of crap on Pat O’Brien’s radio show and gave some more quotes to People magazine about how CBS has “awoken a sleeping giant.” He told O’Brien that CBS execs should have been kissing his ass since he made them rich. “I put a billion dollars in the studio’s pockets and I put half a billion dollars in Chuck’s pocket. I should of been walking in to sandwiches, massages and hand jobs.” He also promised that “things are about to get gnarly.” I haven’t heard that word in several years.
Charlie is also supposedly shopping a tell-all book about his years on the Two and a Half Men set and he expects at least $10 million for an advance. I doubt he’ll be able to craft his lunatic ravings into much more than the empty threats and mildly creative putdowns he’s managed so far. This book deal is about as much of a reality as that show on HBO he claimed was about to happen. The guy’s career is over, he’s bad news and he’s fighting against everyone except the porn star hookers he pays to hang out with him. Pretty soon the money is going to dry up and they’re going to leave too.
Update: La Seacrest just announced on the Oscars red carpet that the Today Show on NBC had an exclusive interview with Charlie Sheen, to air tomorrow. This is curious since advance details had him on ABC and Good Morning America. This makes me wonder if there was a bidding war.
