Charlie Sheen Launches Website Selling "Winning" T-Shirts; Live Shows Sell Out


What's Charlie Sheen doing these days? Duh, winning! Or rather, merchandising. A few days ago Sheen announced his first live shows (next month in Chicago and Detroit), and today he said on Twitter that they had sold out.

In the meantime, Sheen proclaimed that he had launched his own website, CharlieSheen.com, which is now selling t-shirts with the Vatican assassin's trademark catch phrases. He broke the news on Twitter thusly:

"#fastball; After years of being at the mercy of a decaying troll, charliesheen.com is finally in the hands of its Warlock owner! Go Now! c"

The site also had tickets for sale for his live shows (when they were available) and also featured the latest tweets from Sheen's Twitter feed.

What kind of t-shirts are available? Well, you can buy Charlie Sheen t-shirts that say:
* "Winning" (with an illustration of Charlie's face)
* "Gnarles Gnarlington"
* "Surprise... that's what winners do!"
* "I've got one speed... go!" (available in ladies model, too)

Or, for the folks who like the me-and-Charlie-against-the-world sentiment, the Charlie Sheen store has a shirt that reads, "You're either in Sheen's Korner or you're with the trolls."

Although Charlie Sheen's recently announced live show, entitled the "Violent Torpedo of Truth/Defeat is Not an Option Show," has sold out these first two gigs, no doubt there will be more added considering the quick sellout of the first two.

We knew a Charlie Sheen store was coming, but where's the Tiger Blood energy drink? That's got to be in the works for sure...

Charlie Sheen vs. Lady Gaga Auto-Tune REMIX - Video



Here's a brief little mash-up of the recent interview with everyone's favorite train wreck celebrity, Charlie Sheen, combined via the magic of Auto-Tune with some Lady Gaga. Yes, he is on a drug, and it's called Charlie Sheen! It's all passion, baby.

Does Charlie Sheen really "expose people to magic"? Watch and decide. And for more magic, you can watch the entire interview Sheen did with 20/20, or the Today Show, or Good Morning America, or any of the other TV shows he hit on his recent media tour.

We'll probably never see Charlie Sheen in Two and a Half Men again, but he seems determined to leave us with the lasting comic legacy of his interviews.

And as you've probably heard, there's the all-new Charlie Sheen Twitter account where you can read Chuck's real-time commentary as he posts it (including some wacky photos). Over a million Twitter followers can't be wrong, huh?

For more fun, see this gallery of Charlie Sheen quotes used as captions for The New Yorker cartoons.

Mongolian Death Worms - Latest Threat to Mankind!



As if we weren't worried enough about terrorism, humongous ash clouds, killer volcanoes, and other threats of all kind, the Syfy Channel (formerly Sci-Fi) has given us a new bugaboo to fret over: Mongolian death worms. (Yahoo TV takes a look at "Mongolian Death Worm", explaining the major plot points It also notes that Syfy is the network that brought us the deadly biological freak shows "Mega Piranha" and "Dinoshark." Hmmm...)

It seems that treasure hunters looking for Gengis Khan's tomb get something they didn't bargain for when they encounter these creepy crawlies.

The name alone tells you these are bad mothers you do NOT want to mess with. If not, view the clip above. Mongolian death worms look just like big, ugly, overgrown hybrids of worms and insects, and it was disturbing indeed to watch one devour a poor guy in the clip above. The mouthparts of the Mongolian death worm look kind of like a big anus, with a long inner part (similar to the "Alien" retractable head) that pops out to grab the prey out... sort of like a telescoping killer hemorrhoid.

So maybe the way to kill Mongolian death worms is to drop a 500-pound bomb filled with Preparation H on its ugly anus-head?

We can find out for sure when "Mongolian Death Worm" premieres on Syfy at 9 p.m. Eastern time. Sean Patrick Flanery ("Boondock Saints") is the primary human tasked with kicking the Mongolian death worm's ass (sorry, couldn't resist).

Lady Gaga American Idol Video - Full Performance


Lady Gaga performed "Alejandro" and "Bad Romance" on "American Idol," but the video shown on air was cut to fit time constraints. Lady Gaga was not happy about the cut (from six-and-a-half minutes to five minutes, according to Perez Hilton), so she posted a link to the video above of the full-length Lady Gaga "American Idol" video at Hilton's Web site.
