Charlie Sheen says he has HIV virus, has paid millions to keep it secret
FOX News ^ | 11/17/2015

Posted on 11/17/2015 6:41:43 AM PST by SeekAndFind

Hollywood bad boy Charlie Sheen revealed on Tuesday he is HIV positive.

In an interview Tuesday on NBC's "Today," the 50-year-old Sheen says he tested positive for the virus that causes AIDS about four years ago.

"It's a hard three letters to absorb. It's a turning point in one's life," the former "Two and a Half Men" actor said.

Sheen said he had already paid "upwards of $10 million" to keep the information secret.

"We're talking shakedowns," he said.

Sheen said that he did have unprotected sex since being diagnosed, but also claimed he had told every partner since being diagnosed that he was HIV positive.

His personal physician sat by his side during part of the interview and detailed the star's treatment. He said after the actor was diagnosed he was "immediately put on treatment, strong anti-viral drugs, which have suppressed the virus."

Sheen and his doctor declared the star has an undetectable level of the virus in his blood.

"Charlie does not have AIDS," his physician declared. "Charlie is healthy."

Sheen said he takes four pills every day and he has never missed a dose.

"I still drink a little bit," he admitted.

His physician said Sheen's substance abuse issues have concerned his doctors.

And porn stars, I know. One them of is mad at HIM for exposing HER to HIV. Boy oh boy.

I’d wager he got from a needle or a tranny (UK press is saying he bangs them) over heterosexual sex.

I met Charlie not long after “Wall Street” I hated him, so I can’t honestly muster up much sympathy for him.

Either way, I hope the guy is ok.

Doesn’t seem like some raging lefty. Just an outta control guy with a lot of money.

This does not shock me. Still, I didn’t wish this on Charlie, even though I was never a fan of his.

Only if it’s feline AIDS. If it is feline AIDS, then I his sex partners that were mere mortals were never at risk of infection so they didn’t need protection.

He was on Two and a Half Men, so that would explain the "half man" part.

He denied that he used needles for drugs in his interview today. Said he doesn't know for sure how he got it. The bisexual or "tranny" issue wasn't raised in the interview. It's a little hard to believe that he couldn't track down who gave it to him, unless they all denied it, he didn't try, or it was a "tranny" or male partner which he doesn't want to admit.

OJ was never at a loss for female company either, even though it was clear that he was a murderer.

After OJ was acquitted he moved to my neighborhood and I ran into him a couple of times, once at Blackpoint Marina (he and and a couple of “10” strippers sauntered inches from my bumper, I gave him the finger and he just flashed a smile and kept walking to the party boat) and the other time at a bar restaurant.

I’m sitting there sipping a drink, a young brunette to my left.

All of a sudden OJ walks in and sits in between me and the bimbo, who he obviously had set up a meeting with.

He starts talking to the idiot about going to dinner in Coral Gables, and I get up and say “CHECK PLEASE” and bug out because I figure maybe he recognizes me as the guy who gave him the finger a couple of weeks ago.

Bottom line is that some people are seriously messed up, and Sheen will still be able to bed new women, as unbelievable as that would seem.

He looks to be in good shape for a 60year old.

This is about as surprising as the sun rising this morning. I’m sure Chuckie’s little hooker girlfriends that live(d) with him are thrilled with this news.

"He looks to be in good shape for a 60year old."

He's not 60, he's 50 - born in 1965.
