The National Enquirer is reporting that Sheen is HIV positive.

'Charlie had sex with multiple partners since learning his HIV status without informing them of his potentially deadly HIV infection,' a source told the Enquirer.

Another source said; 'Charlie hired escorts, and him being HIV-positive never entered these women’s minds.

'The fact is, he was playing Russian roulette with their lives, while the women were playing Russian roulette with the prospect of becoming pregnant by Sheen, and being set for life.'

The Enquirer is also reporting that one of the women who was allegedly exposed settled a civil action against the actor after retaining Gloria Allred as her lawyer.

Roll up roll up for the latest Hollywood sewer pipe news.

When I read the rumour article on the Daily Mail the other week he was one of the names going around to be rumoured so not that all surprised. What makes it more shocking as a story is that he's straight and has contacted HIV which is quite rare especially among the rich and famous.

Thoughts?

you might have seen in the news lately that a high profile male celeb has been diagnosed with HIV and people were trying to guess who it was based on reports that he had slept with; a porn star, a religious celebrity and more.

well now some sites are reporting that it's charlie sheen and that he's going to announce it tomorrow

so we'll see what tomorrow brings!

Mystery Holywood actor suffering from HIV is Charlie Sheen, according to US website


THE 50-year-old is to appear on Today show tomorrow morning for a "revealing interview" as speculation reaches fever pitch.




http://i4.dailyrecord.co.uk/incoming...JS25785318.jpg
Charlie Sheen is rumoured to be suffering from HIV

CHARLIE Sheen has been revealed to be the Hollywood actor diagnosed as HIV-positive, a major US website claims.
The star is set to talk to America’s Today programme in the morning about his condition but US website Radar has revealed his identity ahead of his appearance.
Speculation was mounting Sheen was to be named this week by a US magazine as the mystery Holywood star living with the disease.
But producers of the breakfast show, Today, took to Twitter to announce they were interviewing the actor.
News of the interview led RadarOnline and its sister magazine the National Enquirer to name the actor today.
The website read: “After an exhaustive 18-month investigation, the ENQUIRER reveals the sex-crazed 50-year-old actor, who has a long history of sleeping with porn stars, strippers and groupies of both sexes, is now desperate to cover up his medical crisis, and it’s costing him millions.
http://i4.dailyrecord.co.uk/incoming...rlie-Sheen.jpgCharlie fools around on Nessie sculptureIt went on, ‘quoting a close friend of the star’ who said: “Charlie thought he was indestructible and took no precautions - even though he was indulging in high-risk sex practices.”
Sheen, who has boasted of sleeping with more than 5,000 women, is alleged to have confessed his illness to almost a dozen sources.
The National Enquirer claimed at least four women have alleged the actor exposed them to the virus.
It was reported last week, before his identity was revealed, that he had spent millions paying for people’s silence including one girl he paid £13,000 a month to.
“Charlie had sex with multiple partners since learning his HIV status without informing them of his potentially deadly HIV infection,” one source is alleged to have told the magazine.

would explain why he went nuts tho

Thread merged by Expling (Forum Moderator) due to being on the same topic!

lol y'know that moment when you have no clue then when you hear the answer its like ohhhhhhhhh that is so obvious now.

wellll
ohhhhhhhhh that is so obvious now!

bit idiotic of him sleeping around and not telling people

ps: undertaker posted this earlier also http://www.habboxforum.com/showthread.php?t=831233 so mods might wanna merge

What a prat sleeping with people without telling them he had it!

Interesting to see that this appears to be true. Film crews like to gossip and I've heard this story in the past.

"What makes it more shocking as a story is that he's straight" - literally.... what the fuck

also yes it's not very surprising considering his lifestyle and it's sad but i think it's good that he's going public as he didn't have to - his health is his personal business - and it will hopefully raise awareness and get rid of some of the stigma surrounding hiv and aids.

Is it illegal in the US not to tell people you have HIV?

Disgusting excuse of a man.

Not sure why it would 'explain why he went nuts tho' - can live a perfectly normal life with HIV.

EDIT: Why has someone -repped me for being offensive? If for the first sentence, I mean before having sex... seriously, whichever turd -repped me for my post, feel free to comment on how I was 'offensive'.

that is the case but if you only want to talk about statistics, then black people in the US are more likely than whites to commit murder & robberies. but i doubt it elicits a knee-jerk response of 'shock' in you when you see the mugshot of some white guy on the news.

'all'? what about magic johnson and easy-e? charlie's not exactly alone.

stats aside it's a negative stereotype that's perpetuated by comments like that, and it causes a lot of prejudice against people due to the mistakes of others. that being said, those within the gay community itself do have a long way to go with educating younger people about this.

@Judas; why must this political correctness/the constant looking for offence card always be pulled out. all i did was state a statistical truth. it's so tiring.

because it is an offensive stereotype. there was literally no need for you to say anything about his sexual orientation, it has nothing to do with it. he has been notoriously promiscuous for years - not to mention a heavy drug user - yet you were "shocked" because he's a straight man. cool of you to ignore my points as well. people just cry "oh political correctness!" to excuse their ignorance. don't.

why's it offensive and offensive to whom exactly? its a statistical truth. it is unusual of the straight population as a whole to have HIV whereas the statistical probability of a gay person to have HIV is much much higher hence why many of the facebook/awareness campaigns are aimed at gay people.

all i made was an observation that many people when they think of celebrities with HIV usually think of rock hudson, freddie mercury who were gay in the 80s. sheesh.

you know exactly why. it's a horrible label to have and people still use it to try and justify their hatred.

unusual? it's like 60% of those with HIV that are gay. this exchange alone shows why people in general need to be educated more.

@Judas; what's a horrible label to have? i think you're fearing a 'backlash' when there really is none. nobody on this forum or anyone i know looks down on those with HIV.

indeed, and given gay people are only like 5% of the population you can see why it is associated more (and rightly statistically) with MSM.

you really think that's applicable for society as a whole? if you're honestly denying that there's any negative stigma attached to hiv/aids then i'll just leave you in your wilful ignorance

a comment on habboxforum isn't society.

as it happens though, i don't sense any hatred towards people with HIV in british society at all. that's my own observation. i know of distant family stories from years ago (in the late 80s and 90s) regarding gay family members with HIV stigma but that was decades ago. attitudes have changed enormously towards this disease.

you literally just used comments from users on this forum to try and tell me no one looks down on it. i know your opinion doesn't represent society but doesn't mean i can't call out something i think is wrong when i see it.

that's wonderful but i'm fairly sure i was making a point about negative stigma, not hatred. do you have trouble with comprehension?

@Judas; so what have i said that is so offensive that you're taking issue with here because i really don't get what your point is

and furthermore, if what i have said is offensive have i just offended myself as a gay person and what happens now. should i cry?

i've already explained why, i don't feel like going around in circles with you because you're either taking the piss or you're just a very small minded individual lol.

i know you're gay. doesn't mean you can't be ignorant.

good night now :)

yeah i'm small minded and ignorant because i stated the statistical fact that gay people are more likely to have hiv than straight people. rightttttt.

god sometimes i wish some laid back and chilled aliens would come and abduct me and take me away from this uptight planet.

lol first people say i'm a troll and now i'm uptight! imagine.

i wish they would too anyway babes.

@Judas did you -rep me for being offensive, also? I don't care about the -rep, just want to know which part of my post was offensive :L Apologies if not you..

Isn't this just a rumour at the moment though?

Plus I tried to give conservative +rep for the minus rep (have to spread it around before giving it again :/).... Nothing wrong with his original post??

I did it instead/as well :P I agree, I can't see anything wrong with the post.

Not sure how much of the stories I believe as the two articles shown are the "NATIONAL ENQUIRER!!!" (an eight page special report? Really??) that has too many capital letters on the front page to count and the Daily Mail. Not saying it's untrue but I am fairly certain that this will not be bad as the "NATIONAL ENQUIRER!!!" are making it out to be...

I think it's revolting that he didn't tell his sexual partners that he has HIV though. Can you imagine fucking up someone's life like that? No matter how embarrassed you are it's totally unacceptable, I think we all seem to be agreeing on that.

he confirmed he has it this morning on usa tv and said he told all his sexual partners he had HIV before sleeping with them

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ng5WSbZ9M08

he says he has had unprotected sex with 2 people since knowing he had HIV but they knew he had it and they were under the care of his doctor whatever that means

That's pretty disgusting that he would do that to anyone, knowing full well that he had HIV. Regardless of who you are or your intentions, no one deserves that.

you can't deny that it's a huge turning point in someone's life that could potentially have an impact on one's sense of self, mental health etc. i would be devastated and lord knows what i'd do. he said he was diagnosed about 4 years ago, which coincides with the time he was going on about bi-winning and asking his bosses for more money (i guess to stop people spreading rumours because he was worried about his career), so i'm sure it had an impact on him. there's also this;

"In a letter to Lauer written before his appearance, Sheen said of his life after learning of his diagnosis; 'In and around this perplexing and difficult time I dazedly choose or hired the companionship of unsavory or insipid types. Because I was so depressed by the condition I was in I was doing a lot of drugs. I was drinking. And I was making really bad decisions,' said Sheen.

In another passage from the letter Sheen wrote to Lauer, the actor said of the his state after being diagnosed; 'The personal disbelief, karmic confusion, shame and anger led to a temporary yet abysmal descent into profound substance abuse and fathomless drinking.'
Lauer asked if Sheen's behavior in early 2011 when he did a slew of interviews with almost every major network in which he claimed to have 'tiger blood' and be a 'ninja assassin from Mars' was a result of learning about his diagnosis.
'I wish I could blame it on that but that was more of a 'roid rage,' said Sheen.
'But this was on the heels of that I would say.'

so it does seem to have had a bit of an impact. but tbh, he was pretty messed up even before that. i read some of his interview (not seen it yet) and he seems more calm now tho.

Again, an example of people hearing rumours and believing it all. Yes he has HIV, but he said in an interview he told all his partners he had it. So let's not slate him for vulgar lies, which are made just to spice up the story a little more.

no one deserves what

he told all of the people he had sex with he had HIV before they had sex

what IS disgusting is that he was blackmailed and had to pay some girls he slept with millions to keep it a secret

altho he is pretty stupid for keeping that going

Na I deffo do not believe that he told everyone of his hiv status first. Like he said in a depressive state, taking drugs doesn't lead you to making the best decisions.
