Charlie Sheen on His Chicago Show: 'I Won'

By Kelly Fisher Posted Apr 4th 2011 07:30AM

After an epic fail in Detroit, Charlie Sheen said he "got back to basics" for the second show of his 'Torpedo of Truth' tour, according to E! Online.

The "winning" actor said he stayed up until 4:30 Sunday morning re-working his live show, which debuted to boos and heckling Saturday night in Detroit.

"Gotta go with what got you to the dance and give the people what they want," the actor said. "On the bus someone said, 'You know, we could just keep driving to LA.' I said, 'F**k that. That's what losers do. I won.'"

Apparently so, since Sheen was greeted with a standing ovation from the Chicago crowd, along with chants of "Detroit sucks!" The former 'Two and a Half Men' star decided to ditch everything that didn't work during his first show -- like opening acts and video segments -- and give the audience what they want: Charlie Sheen.

The actor sat in a chair with a pack of cigarettes as he was interviewed by the tour's co-producer Joey Scoleri -- just like the interviews that prompted the bizarre rants that catapulted Sheen further into pop culture fame earlier this year.

During the show, he talked about marriage -- "I'm 0-3" -- and estranged wife Brooke Mueller. "Nice try, bitch," he said of Mueller's attempt to take away his twin sons. "I got those kids back, didn't I? She sent 9,000 cops to my house looking for drugs and guns. They found one gun from 1848."

Of course he touched on the 'Two and a Half Men' debacle. "I didn't walk away from s**t. I got fired," he said. "That's not f**king cool. They didn't give a f**k that I was hammered for eight years ... If they hired me back I'd do it again."

He also revealed his attempt to add a third "goddess" to his group didn't work out so well. "I tried a third. I did," he said. "You can't keep an eye on the third one. I have two eyes. I have two goddesses. I'm not bipolar. I'm bi-winning."

Looks like the second time's the charm for Sheen because the packed show ended as it began -- with a standing ovation from crowd.

Don't think much of either city- both known for crime and ....nothing

By Pat

So Chicago gave him a standing ovation...next they will want him for President, when their other guy loses.

By Mary

Keep telling yourself, Charlie. Maybe the other people in other cities can get their money back and he shows up and no one is there. What a waste of money to see a train wreck.

By Gil

This guy is a disgrace and should find a nice quiet place and take him and his two "women" and hide out. People in Chicago should be ashamed of themselves for even paying to see this idiot. I do not care if he is EVER on TV again. He certainly is not someone I would watch if he were. He is a pathetic excuse for a human being and is doing nothing but exploiting people with this sad "tour." Give this idiot more money to spend on drugs and his "hanger ons" is what this tour is all about.

By Matthew

I was hoping for something a little more Lenny Bruce. In the shallow age in which we live in the West...I suppose we get what we deserve...as this appears to be present day Americana at it's best.

....I mean...."I'm a winner: I went to Iraq and won, I'm 'winning' in Afghanistan, and I'm in Libya because I'm a winner!".....phooey -- head to Japan and do some winning!

By SIC OF CARLOS ESTEVEZ AKA CHARLIE SHEEN

Charlie is only KIDDING himself if he thinks he won. He has LOST everything he ever had that was GOOD for him and he is nothing but a LOSER big time. HE HAS NOT WON JACK. WHAT A DILLUSIONAL MORON HE IS. CARLOS ESTEVEZ AKA CHALRIE SHEEN HAS FINALLY LOST IT BIG TIME......JUST GO AWAY CHARLIE. ENOUGH IS ENOUGH OF YOU..AND I PERSONALLY HAVE HAD IT WITH YOU. YOU ARE A WASTE OF TIME THESE DAYS. LOSER. PROFITING OFF OF PEOPLE WITH YOUR BS AND SAYING YOU WON..WHAT A LOSER YOU ARE CHARLIE! No wonder you are nothing but a miserable drug and alcohol self absorbed moron.

...like I said, "Current day Americana at it's best(period)"

By Chris Calvin

Question: How can you say you won, when the whole world thinks your a moron? Maybe that is what you mean by "I win". Please stop covering this jerk, American press. You are starting to look as stupid as Charlie. Why doesn't Charlie marry Lindsay Lohan (NO not just Lindsay, sorry druggie) Then they could go on their honeymoon and crash the car as they will both be high. If we are lucky they would drive off a cliff and land on the Kardashians house. Yeah I heard this as a joke, but it is funny if you ask me.
