Charlie Sheen to Lindsay Lohan: 'Work On Your Impulse Control'

By Zach Dionne Posted Feb 17th 2011 10:33AM

Charlie Sheen called into 'The Dan Patrick Show' on Wednesday and gave an eight-minute interview to set the record straight about his 'Two and a Half Men' hiatus and various reports surrounding his tumultuous life.

"It's just insane, I have to call in on a couple of things," Sheen told Dan Patrick on-air for the second time in three days.

"People need to understand how supremely grateful I am that someone stepped in here," Sheen said. "I don't want to say who, but you know, basically, Viacom showed up at my house and said, 'Dude, it's getting really obvious, and we're really worried about you. We don't give a rat's tooey about the show, we care about your health.' So, they came in and just man to man and said, 'We have to shut it down.'"

Somewhat arbitrarily, Sheen asked Patrick to notify him if Lindsay Lohan was ever secured as a guest for the show. "I've got some things I'd recommend she'd consider," Sheen said. "I don't tell anyone what to do."

Pressed for one piece of advice for Lohan, Sheen said: "Work on your impulse control. Just try to think things through a little bit before you do 'em."

On the topic of LiLo, Sheen condemned media who "vilify without fact." According to a TMZ source, Lindsay was thankful for Charlie's words, reportedly telling acquaintances she "appreciates Charlie giving her his support."

Sheen mentioned an unidentified girlfriend and said he is "100 percent" in love. HollywoodDame.com speculates that "simple deduction would peg Bree Olson has his new lady love," saying Sheen spent the holidays with the 24-year-old porn star.

Sheen also chimed in on 'Two and a Half Man' creator Chuck Lorre's humorous comment this week -- on the traditional "vanity card" in the closing credits of Monday's TV show, Lorre wrote, "If Charlie Sheen outlives me, I'm gonna be really pissed."

Was Sheen affronted? Not at all, apparently. "Everybody tried to turn it into a feud," Sheen told Patrick. "It's a reflection of how he feels in comparison to how insane my life appears at time. I took it as a huge compliment. He basically wrote a brilliant little piece of literature and called me Superman. Don't people get it?"

The Superman part came in the full text of Lorre's words, where he touted his own efforts at maintaining health, in contrast to Sheen's hard-partying ways.

Sheen said he'll return to 'Two and a Half Men' on March 1. "We're gonna get back there and we can figure this out."

When asked, Sheen also said he will continue starring next season. "Oh God, yeah!" he said. "Because I have a two year deal. I'm a man of my word."

Sheen expressed the same sentiment speaking to Patrick two days prior, on Feb. 14. "I'm a man of my word; I have a contract. They said get your act together, and I did. I think just maybe it was a timing thing. I didn't think it was going to happen this fast. Check it, it's like I heal really quickly. But I unravel pretty quickly. So get me right now, guys."

Sheen told Patrick that day that he was sober. "Oh yeah. One hundred percent, one hundred perfect," he said. "Peeing clean. I just said pee on your show, sorry man. I feel great, man ... I'm here and ready ... I'm actually hungry."

Ready to return to work earlier than expected, Sheen went to the set and found it empty. "We are on forced hiatus. They said, 'You get ready and we'll get ready.' And I got ready and went back and nobody's there," Sheen said Monday. "I'm here and I'm ready. They're not. Bring it, you know?"

What? All this time, I thought 2 and a Half Men was about 2 gay guys who adopted a kid. Isn't that other actor supposed to be playing a gay man?

By slainwayne

He didn't break any law, steal anything nor kill someone yet he's the vilified flavor of the month. His only crime has been partying with porn stars over a weekend!? I don't know about you guys but that makes him my hero right there.

Either of these two giving advice on ANYTHING to ANYBODY makes as much sense as General Custer giving advice on how best to fight the Indians!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

By June C

My husband and I watch your show, all reruns etc. Just one thought. You have so much to offer, you could be a perfect role model for many young people. You have the financial means to help the less fortunate. Try to turn your life around, turn a minus(-) into a (+); and good things should happen. Your fan, June C

Charlie has never grown up. He's always enjoyed the booze, drugs and women. Until he realizes that this behavior will kill him at his age, then he won't ever quit being a teenager.

By Vicky

Next Sheen will ask Lohan over to party. Charlie leave the kids alone

By kbroome1969

damn hes got nerve....
hes a train wreck himself with no signs of getting better.... who the hell is he to give advice to anyone....

By Tony

Charlie, You go bro. Remember this is not a dress rehersel. Everything in moderation except with hookers. Did you ever wonder why working girls don't like to cuddle ?

By justin sayin

" But I unravel pretty quickly, so get me now boys " pretty much sums up the road Sheen is taking. There's a pool formed ; Between now and 2yrs.signaling 'blow' has won. Let's hope the 24yr. old porn star, he's madly in love with, has more on the ball, so to speak, than porn to save him .

By Mill

Charlie, all this stuff is starting to make you look older. Please think about what you may look like in a couple more years if you continue to live like this.

By Evie

Charlie Sheean needs to worry about getting his own life straightened out instead of trying to give advise to other celebraties. He seems to have some very serious mental problems & unless he deals with them with the help of healt professionals he's never going to get better.

By Marilyn

He has absolutely NO business talking about Lindsay Lohan or anyone. You are a laughing joke Charlie.

By Skizzy

What a huge loser. But then, what would you expect with a father like Martin Sheen. Martin must be real proud of his son.

By jimbo

Obviously Sheen is a very sick man. His network continues to milk him. When he is gone, they can send flowers and express their "sincere" regrets.
