Charlie Sheen Sues for $100 Million

Charlie Sheen just filed suit against Warner Bros. and Two and a Half Men creator Chuck Lorre to the tune of $100,00,000 plus punitive damages. He’s demanding to be paid for the 8 canceled episodes and suing on behalf of the crew. Sound disingenuous? That’s probably because it is.

“Chuck Lorre, one of the richest men in television who is worth hundreds of millions of dollars, believes himself to be so wealthy and powerful that he can unilaterally decide to take money away from the dedicated cast and crew of the popular television series, ‘Two and a Half Men,’ in order to serve his own ego and self-interest, and make the star of the Series the scapegoat for Lorre’s own conduct.”

Singer alleges the cancellation is based on “Warner Bros. capitulating to Lorre’s egotistical desire to punish Mr. Sheen …”

Singer alleges there was a conspiracy between Lorre and Warner Bros. to blame Charlie for the cancellation.

Singer tells TMZ, the suit is also filed on behalf of the cast and crew, based on what’s called a “private attorney general’s statute.” To view this in the lawsuit, see page 21, paragraphs 70 – 75.

Singer goes on to claim they fired Charlie when he was sick which is a violation of State and federal law.

Let me get this straight. If I do a lot of coke and bang a lot of hookers, my employer can’t fire me because I’m “sick?” Is that what Charlie is saying? Because he’s right you know. People usually forget about the 28th amendment.
