CHARLIE SHEEN IS DONE WITH 2 1/2 MEN!

CHARLIE SHEEN:"Much speculation and rumor has arisen from my current status
surrounding Two and a Half Men. All of the numbers reported in the
press are false. Claims from ‘inside sources’ regarding offers from
the studio as well as my salary, on their best day, are without merit.
Approaching the start of the current season and as far back as June
‘09, I submitted my terms for season eight to Warner Bros. and CBS
respectfully. Both parties have known the score for over a year. In no
way, has this been a hasty or negligent eleventh hour surprise. I
offer this information out of love and respect to my crew, my on-set
family, my writers, executive staff, as well as my real family, my
dear friends and my loyal fans. We tape the final episode of the
season this evening. If tonight’s show is the end for me as Charlie
Harper, so be it. Another journey has begun. I take from the
experience 161 shows filled with a kaleidoscope of amazing
experiences, memories, friendships and gratitude. I remain humbly
inspired.”
