“You have to sort of go into performance art,” Charlie told Nova about how he deals with the media (via Radar Online).
"It wasn't like I was really believing that if you, it’s a drug called Charlie Sheen, if you take it your face will melt off and you'll weep over your exploded body!”

"It’s about all those b**ching words sounding cool all put together. It’s about shock value, it's just about not having any interest in speaking like everybody else, he explained. "It’s just boring."
And Charlie thinks the media loves him.
"They love me, they just love me," he said. "It’s a big, warm hug. It’s like a nude Jacuzzi."
