Although Charlie Sheen claims to be on a right path, or the “straight and narrow,” the 50-year-old actor admitted to smoking pot just a few days before an interview with Piers Morgan.
On An Evening with Charlie Sheen, he admitted: “I don’t do well on pot. I smoked pot like a week ago, right. It was just one hit, nobody was there, I was like, ‘F**k it, I’m bored.’ I called the guy at the gate at like 3am. I was like, ‘Hey Alex, it’s Sheen. Could you come down here for a minute, I just don’t wanna be alone right now?’ We’d met like once. I brought him down because the pot these days is so god damn strong. I thought I was dying. I didn’t want to just pass out alone.”
The actor also claimed to be celibate for seven months after revealing his HIV condition.
“HIV is not the best pick-up line. So it has happened as a result of everybody else and myself having the knowledge, and that’s fine. You’d be amazed how much more you can accomplish and how much more you can learn when you’re not just trying to have sex. I make jokes about the diagnosis because you have to. Otherwise it’s just ‘awkward city’. [I miss sex] but not to the extent where something is missing. Not to the extent where I’m saying, ‘Oh that night could have been so much better.’ It’s fine. I mean, sex isn’t going anywhere. It’s still there. And if available, awesome. If not, no big deal. I’ll spend more time hanging with my parents, you know?”
Just recently, Sheen told Matt Lauer from The Today Show that he feels much better after having come forward regarding the disease. In addition, he is no longer paying extortion money to various people who threatened to leak such sensitive information over the years.
