Charlie Sheen Betrays Two and a Half Men Successor by Courting Demi Moore, TMZ: ‘I’m Tired of Pretending Ashton Doesn’t Suck’ (Video)

Backstabber! Just last month, Charlie Sheen was praising his Two and a Half Men replacement, Ashton Kutcher, for following in his footsteps and completely falling apart the classy way he was handling tabloid pressure. (Since joining the show, Mr. Kutcher has separated from wife Demi Moore after illicit, drug-fueled photos of him with other women began cropping up.)

Sheen, Kruger, Bloomberg: This Week's Signs of the Apocalypse

The Ides of March are upon us.  Actually, that’s inaccurate. The ides of March have shaken, slammed and otherwise shamelessly brutalized us over the course of the last week. Acts of god. Horrible accidents. More Charlie Sheen. “Upon us” is a bit of an understatement.

Then again, understatement has been the preferred coping mechanism this week. Read More
