Charlie Sheen Says He Was in 'Denial' About Meltdown: Genuine or Just Wants Press?

It's going to be pretty tough for audiences to distance Charlie Sheen's 2011 meltdown from his new series, "Anger Management," but he's going to have to try. The studio's got a lot of money riding on that show. So Sheen is doing a little bit of damage control by getting candid about what he calls a "psychotic break." Watch the video below for some classic excuses.



Sheen told Playboy, "I started to unravel. I finally just said things I had always been thinking. But in the middle of a psychotic break ... It was surreal. And it never occurred to me where this was going to end up or how it was going to be perceived ... How do you go from making Oliver Stone movies to being in a feud with warlocks?" Do you think Sheen's embarrassment over his meltdown is genuine -- or is he just looking for press?

    Just wants press? Or the press wants him? Stop going to this man he doesn't have black magic powers, its not like when he says something it materializes onto paper. They should stop reporting on him.

    Sorry charlie! His new show is coming out and he's afraid it will flop.
    charlie has been "genuine" many times. At least to him it is. Keep him off of drugs and alcohol for a year and we'll see if he can speak.

    Mr. Sheen needs rehab in the worst way. He has lost any credibility he ever had and needs to start over with his life. Maybe he SHOULD retire from show biz...

    I chose 'genuine' because I suppose he is 'sincerely' being Charlie Sheen, doing and saying things that he understands work.
    This even includes 'wanting press' and this is something where he has grown up in a world where that IS an actual routine part of his life, identity, business.

    In a real way I can't blame him for anything. He grew up a 'Hollywood Royal' and could not possibly have had a chance to be 'normal'. He thinks sleeping with two porn stars is 'good' and cocaine is a 'work tool' and t-shirts with your catchphrases are worthwhile and so on.
    Then again, his brother Emilio would have grown up the same way with the same skewed strange life. And Emilio seems (as far as I can tell) to be a very normal guy, a nice man and seems very polite.

    Charlie's entire life appears to be clambering for attention. I think substance abuse has left a permanent scar.

    Could be, but I don't let him pass because of it; hell if he made it worse through substance abuse, that makes him more of a dink.

    More like 'just NEEDS press'. The guy's a genuine loser! What he 'needs' to do is quit the business, get his personal life in order and get some humanity and dignity. Instead of trying to project the 'manufactured' persona of being a young playboy. Get with the program gramps: You're a has been at best, you ignorant, arrogant 'in your face' loser!

    I can only imagine that when you are lost in meth, coke , and porn star loving.....you could fail to see anything but the next line, pipe...sexual act . Is that an excuse? No, but it could happen to any guy with a big ego, and bank account to match.

    Geniuine... OR NOT!!! Point is who cares, he's an actor not a damn priest, he shouldn't be held to some standard of behavior because people will see him as messed up if he doesn't. I'm saying the man can act, he's funny as a monkey trying f@%k a football, and to be honest although I'm not gay he's not hard to look at either. WHO CARES what he says when he's being himself, have you SEEN Two And A Half Men??? Seriously if he can be THAT funny in this new series, I'll be watching, if and when I can afford television service... GOD I miss free broadcast TV... :(

    I feel he knows he has to save his a__ . I was enjoying the original "Two and a Half", did not like seeing him flip out. It appears he does have problems, but I do hope that he can possibly get past it.

    When are people going to learn, everything Charlie Sheen does is to benifit Charlie Sheen? Why not, he is good at what he does, people love his crazy stuff and he just hops from one good deal to another. He can attract a crodw of reporters or cameras mwith just a few words. What a guy!!! Keep listening and he will tell you how great he is.

    Well, let's see...when he went psycho he divided the audiences and lost his hit show.

    He has a new show coming out that, considering all, will probably be the last thing he does and I'm sure he's not the only one that wants it to be a huge success. He has to win back those who won't even tune in out of morbid curiosity, so publicly making amends and admitting wrongs is a good way to do that.
