Sheen stated during the interview, "...it just didn't look like any commercial jetliner I've flown on any time in my life and then when the buildings came down later on that day I said to my brother, 'Call me insane, but did it sorta look like those buildings came down in a controlled demolition?'" [4] During a March 22, 2006 appearance on CNN's Showbiz Tonight, Sheen stated "...19 amateurs with box cutters taking over four commercial airliners and hitting 75 percent of their targets, that feels like a conspiracy theory."[5] In June 2006, Sheen also spoke at the 9/11 + The Neo-Con Agenda Symposium in Los Angeles, California, a conference organized to discuss various 9/11 conspiracy theories. Divorce from Denise Richards

"Living Legend of Sex"In a 1997 Empire magazine interview, Sheen was asked what was the largest number of people Sheen had had sex with at any one time. He replied: "...five girls at once. It was a pile-up...and it wasn't so much about going Caligula, it was very organised. Very ordered...all six people in that room came out of it pretty satisfied."[7] Sheen was listed as #2 on Maxim's "Top 10 Living Legends of Sex", citing an alleged 5,000 women that he has slept with.
