Charlie Sheen, whose behavior got him fired four months ago, is ready to face the heat. Comedy Central is roasting the actor/warlock assassin on September 10, with the show airing on September 19 — the same day that Two and a Half Men with Ashton Kutcher will premiere. This showdown may prove once and for all who the winner is in the battle of Charlie Sheen and Two and a Half Men producer Chuck Lorre. We've got our money on Charlie, what with all his super powers and tiger blood.
There's no word yet on who the roasters will be, but it is sure to be memorable. Kent Alterman, the head of Comedy Central's original programming and production, has said that "Charlie has assured us that nothing will be off limits in this Roast... which scares even us." You heard him, comedians, start getting your hooker, blow, and "fire-breathing fists" material ready.

LOOK MA!!! NO CUFFS!" Pink is currently pregnant. Meanwhile, Aguilera's friends and business associates are continuing to beg the singer to enter rehab.

Charlie Sheen has temporarily lost custody of his twin boys to Brooke Mueller after Sheen allegedly threatened her life by saying, "I will cut your head off, put it in a box and send it to your mom."
Otherwise, Sheen is winning according to E! Online's Charlie Sheen Scoreboard, with 5 wins, 2 losses, and 3 ties ... and they're not even counting the win in his pants with his live-in girlfriends. Yesterday he said they "win so radically in our underwear before our first cup of coffee, it's scary."
Another win is Sheen's new Twitter account, which already has over 750K followers since being verified yesterday. He's posted 12 tweets, 3 of which contain the hash tag #tigerblood, and said, "Just got invited to do the Nancy Grace show ... I'd rather go on a long road trip with Chuck Lorre in a '75 Pacer...."

Like the rest of the world, we're fascinated with Charlie Sheen these days. No matter what you think of his latest radio rant, you've gotta give the guy credit for his larger-than-life actions and language. His open letter to TMZ was so epic, though, that it left us awestruck ... and inspired.
What does this say about Haim Levine [Chuck Lorre] after he tried to use his words to judge and attempt to degrade me. I gracefully ignored this folly for 177 shows ... I fire back once and this contaminated little maggot can't handle my power and can't handle the truth. I wish him nothing but pain in his silly travels especially if they wind up in my octagon. Clearly I have defeated this earthworm with my words -- imagine what I would have done with my fire breathing fists. I urge all my beautiful and loyal fans who embraced this show for almost a decade to walk with me side-by-side as we march up the steps of justice to right this unconscionable wrong.

CBS and Warner Bros. have shut down production of the hit comedy Two and a Half Men after Charlie Sheen's incendiary and ridiculously entertaining radio show rant yesterday. Sheen called Men executive producer Chuck Lorre a "turd," "clown," and a "charlatan," and said Lorre's show was a "tin can" that he magically turned to "pure gold." He also called Alcoholics Anonymous a "bootleg cult," referred to the women he parties with as "turds" and "losers," and called Thomas Jefferson a "p***y."
After learning production was halted, Sheen sent an open letter to TMZ that is even more colorful than his on-air comments, calling Lorre a "contaminated little maggot" and an "earthworm" he defeated with his words, "imagine what I would have done with my fire breathing fists." Sheen then challenged Lorre to a fight and said, "If he wins, then he can leave MY show!"
The outburst may cost Sheen a role in Major League 3, with James G. Robinson — CEO of Morgan Creek Productions — comparing him to Lindsay Lohan and telling TMZ, "I'm not going to risk putting Charlie in the movie if he continues messing up." According to Sheen, that would be a mistake. As part of his rant he discussed Major League 3 and again used the t-word. "If they want me in it, it's a smash, and if they don't, it's a turd opening on a tug boat."
Finally, RadarOnline reports Sheen is already leaving CBS for HBO for a show called Sheen's Corner that would pay the star $5M per episode.
