Charlie Sheen’s “WINNING” – It’s The Greatest Show on Earth!

March 1, 2011 Leave a comment

I’ll start by saying that I have absolutely no clue what’s going on inside of Charlie Sheen’s head nor could I begin to image.  That being said I’m convinced that his actions over the past few weeks are all for entertainment and attention; although I am not privy to the ultimate goals and/or accomplishment, I’m 100% sure it’s all premeditated. 

Charlie Sheen might be a loose cannon, a drug abuser, and a completely out of his mind individual on every level compared to what normalcy might look like.  But at the end of the day he might prove to be a complete genius, making every media outlet fall to their knees and beg for a piece of him.  He has single handedly created the Greatest Show on Earth that is being played out in front of the world for everyone to see. 

It looks like he is making a mockery of what’s really news and what’s really important in the world.  The lead story this past week on ABC, NBC, CBS and all the cable channels has been about Charlie Sheen and his antics.  They sprinkle in a few tidbits about Libya, throw in a statement from President Obama, and close with the weather but the bulk of the programming has been Charlie Sheen’s Winning!  His speed dial has been locked on TMZ, RadarOnline, The Dan Patrick Show, Howard Stern and closing tonight with an hour on ABC’s 20/20; can’t wait to see tomorrow’s lineup.

Watching this circus, I can’t help but ask myself if its real, what his intentions are behind this public display of disregard and why does anyone really care.  If there is a point to be made, it’s that this is what entertains people in today’s society.  This is The Jersey Shore, meets Real Housewives with Immunity Challenges from Survivor to see who moves on and who stays in the tribe.  That might just be Charlie’s point that we live in an altered world where people care more about Ronnie and Sammi Sweetheart’s disastrous relationship on The Jersey Shore and how Kim Kardashian’s rear end is looking over just about anything else.

This new show is being called “Charlie Sheen’s Winning” starring Charlie Sheen as himself and his “Goddesses” Bree Olsen as “Rachel” and Natalie Kenly as “Natty”.  So far the cast hasn’t landed a TV deal on a specific station, but you can tune into all of them for an update.  You can be assured that the “actors” are being well compensated for their parts and going along for the ride; would you be surprised to hear that the Goddesses are being paid in excess of $250K+ for their contribution.  Remember at the end of the day these people are actors, and although you didn’t see them walking the red carpets last week at the Oscars, you could argue that the type of performances that they give could be award winning. 

Listening to Charlie Sheen today with Howard Stern proved to me that he is actually sane and just giving his best performance yet.  It was the first and only interview that he hasn’t been able to dictate and control the flow of questioning as Howard Stern being the greatest interviewer managed to converse with Charlie rather than let him rant and rave in an egotistical crazy-man tirade.    

 As of now its unclear how this circus will end, either in a train wreck, a rehab facility stint, or syndicated on the WB.  But combining a person with extreme narcissism, bi-polar tendencies, substance abuse addictions, porn stars, and endless amounts of money has become a must-see daily event.  I expect Les Moonves, CBS and everyone involved to cave in and give into what ever Charlie Sheen’s demands are, because at the end of the day – money talks and this bullsh*t will walk!  To quote Charlie Sheen as Bud Fox from Wall Street “Life comes down to a few moments; this is one of them”.
