What Was Charlie Sheen Smoking?


Sheen has been quite adamant about not needing drugs or cigarettes, but during his recent "Violent Torpedo of Truth/Defeat Is Not an Option" tour stops in Los Angeles, California and Toronto, Ontario Canada, Sheen was soon blatantly smoking what appeared to be a cigarette on-stage.
The Warlock blew the minds of the crowd by smoking continuously, but never needing an ashtray, begging the question -- Does this man have not only the power to bend our minds but to bend the laws of physics as well?
Nary an ash was seen drifting down from the cigarette, which emitted small clouds of smoke (or what appeared to be smoke) during both performances. Performance attendees couldn't smell any smoke, but Sheen was surely smoking, causing city officials to train a close eye on both performances.
The whole incident started when the Toronto venue threatened to slap Sheen with a $100,000 fine for smoking on stage. As we all know, the guy is hardly ever seen without a cigarette in mouth or in hand. Though he bragged to several people about not needing cigarettes or an ashtray, shortly after starting his shpiel on stage he lit up his Smokestik. In fact, it's rumored to have been the very same one Bree Olson puffed on last month.

Lots of Hollywood's hottest reportedly use Smokestik to help them either manage their cravings or quit altogether. Among them, Katherine Heigl, Dennis Quaid, Leonardo DiCaprio, Paris Hilton, Tom Petty and Naya Rivera.

I say good for Charlie. He's far from the picture of healthfulness (or cleanliness for that matter). We know him as the fun-loving, quick-lipped character from "Two And A Half Men", reportedly based on his own roller coaster of a life. And the headlines he's made recently? Anything but commendable.
But I've got to hand it to the guy for giving e-cigarettes a try. It's a far cry from his booze-binging, powder snorting days. Could it be the man has actually done something children and families can look up to? Whether it was just to avoid that hefty fine or to take a step toward kicking the habit, thumbs up to Charlie for smoking the Smokestik over a real cigarette. Do I smell a new endorsement deal coming on?
