Guys, I’ve got some bad news.
Charlie Sheen has AIDS.
EW:
Charlie Sheen broke his silence on his health issues on NBC’s Today on Tuesday, telling Matt Lauer he has HIV.
Confirming weeks of speculation, the former Two and a Half Men star told Lauer:
— “I’m here to admit I am in fact HIV positive,” Sheen said. “I have to put a stop to this onslaught, this barrage of attacks, of sub-truths. Very harmful stories that are threatening the health of so many others. They couldn’t be farther from the truth.”
— The diagnosis arrived four years ago, Sheen revealed. “It started with what I thought was a series of cluster headaches. Sweating the bed. I was hospitalized. I thought I had a brain tumor. I thought it was over … It’s a hard three letters to absorb. It’s a turning point in one’s life.” He claims he doesn’t know how he contracted the virus.
— Sheen said that he spent millions to keep sex partners quiet over the last four years (with Lauer later revealing that Sheen had told him off camera that the number was around $10 million). Sheen recalled an incident where a woman took a photo of the antiretroviral medications in his bathroom after a sexual encounter and threatened to sell the photo to the tabloids. He hoped Tuesday’s revelation would put an end to the extortion. “My trust turned to their treason … we’re talking about shakedowns. That’s money for my children. I have five kids and a granddaughter.”
— Lauer also pressed Sheen on whether he ever infected somebody else. “Impossible,” responded Sheen, who claimed his partners knew he had HIV and that condoms were almost always used: “The two people I [had unprotected sex with], that [was done] under the care of my doctor.” (More on this below.)
— Asked about the possibility of criminal charges — if he knowingly exposed a sex partner at risk without telling them — Sheen said, “Having divulged [that I have HIV to sex partners] is the reason I’m in the mess that I’m in, with all the shakedowns.”
— Sheen said the reason he kept involving himself with “unsavory characters” was, “I was so depressed because of the condition I was in. I was drinking way too much, I was making bad decisions.”
— Sheen added that his Two and a Half Men meltdown wasn’t due to depression about his diagnosis: “I wish I could blame it on that, but that was more of a ‘roid rage. This was on the heels of that.”
— The actor also said that he will no longer be paying his extortionists: “Not after today, I’m not. That’s my goal. That’s not my only goal, but I think I released myself from this prison today.”
— Sheen confirmed his ex-wives Denise Richards and Brooke Mueller were both aware of his condition, with Lauer noting he separated from the latter in 2011 (around the same time as his diagnosis). The actor said the headlines that bothered him the most were ones that claimed “That I knew I had AIDS and I was intentionally spreading it — that’s as far from the truth as anything can be.”
I wasn’t aware that straight men could get AIDS.
Also, yes, Charlie Sheen is half-Jew. I always found his public fiascoes to be a lot of fun though. Especially that time he trolled the Alex Jones show.
Anyway, no one dies of AIDS anymore. It’s now really a chronic condition, something like diabetes, rather than a deadly disease.
