Charlie Sheen is speaking out after Warner Brothers announced he has officially been fired from Two and a Half Men and says he heard about the news via text message!
OK! NEWS: CHARLIE SHEEN FIRED BY WARNER BROS. FOR COMMITTING A FELONY?
“I got a text or something. Here’s another thing — these guys are such yellow cockroaches that they didn’t even have the decency to call me," Charlie told Access Hollywood. "I put 5 billion in their cheap suit pockets and another half a bil’ in what’s-his-cheese’s pockets and this is the… respect I get? It’s just deplorable and they should be ashamed of themselves!”
But he also says his focus is on his children.
“Whatever. I guess if you can’t process a guy, or realize his value, you must terminate him,” Charlie explained of his firing. “That’s real high-brow thinking, really evolved thinking. I don’t know. It is what it is. I’m more worried about my children Bob and Max right now than any of this nonsense, you know.”

However, he still plans to take legal action for breach of contract.
“I think that they realized that,” Charlie said “They exercised such a cheap move and this is so silly and so transparent and… it’s so juvenile. It is the work of infants. It is the work of silly infants and it’s just — if this is what it had to come to, to get me out of those silly shirts, then so be it. So maybe I’ll wear one, just on the final day when I go and remove all of their bazillions.”
