The Charlie Sheen thread

[Monopoly]

I think every thread needs one of these. The guys imploding.

Last I heard from his live streams he's a warlock, going to kill trolls and he's giving people tiger blood.

So what do you think? Biggest PR stunt ever or has he actually flipped and gone off the deep end?

Heh, he is loving that boost of temporary super-popularity. He's the type of celebrity I expect to see blow through every dime and in 5 years we will see him in Hot Shots III I watched the vid of him talking to his agent and how much companies are paying him just to simply Tweet something, endorsing them. Heck, he is popular enough that I made a FB quiz on him that has actually gotten a few hits here and there with almost no effort at all I would put the link here, but I don't think that's really allowed, since it does have ads on it. It's pretty stupid anyways.

ninja edit- I just looked at FB and now there is a link going around saying Charlie Sheen found dead at home, lol and someone bought a domain and named it like "sheen died". Nice.

I've seen loads of domains popping up and being spammed around the videos and twitter.

Considering the morons jumping on the bandwagon there's probably good money to be made flogging tshirts or something.

 

[Jenkins]

Go for it, big money! I haven't actually seen any t-shirts for sale yet, but I did see where a guy got a charlie sheen tattoo!

People do crazy things.

I saw some tshirts on wallmart or something which he tweeted himself. I think maybe if you spam him enough with some twitter bots he's probably likely to tweet the link himself. Just promote his war on trolls or torpedo of truth or something.

Ok he's broken the world record for Twitter followers. He's being offered a ton of money to tweet products and he's selling tickets to live shows around the country.

I'd say there's a good chance he called the LAPD on himself for the gun raid.

He's a P R genius.

(It changed P R to Google page rank which is why the spaces)

Lol this guy is completely crazy,and because of him no more Two and a Half Men

They're going to try the show with 'another family member'. It'll get a spike in viewers for one or two episodes then die. They said it's because they want to cash in as much as they... I mean because they owe it to the fans.

Yeah, it is a shame because like you Powlow I really loved the show. I've heard the rumor going around about them replacing him too, but given the money it has been said they make from syndication and the like I guess you can't blame them for giving it a go for as long as they can get away with...

Ha ha... had to check out the site and the t-shirts are so funny. I especially like the one that says "You're either in Sheen's Corner or you're with the trolls!"

The reaction people are having to this is pretty impressive though I think there's certianly some money in it. If the Facebook marketers are not already on it 'Sheens Korner' (that's what he's calling his live stream videos) app or something.

 

[Monopoly]

He currently has two lists on the first page of Google for 'winning' which is impressive in it's own right.

And as of last night his sell out tour is bombing. Crowds booing, walking about and wanting a refund.
