The bad boy image Charlie Sheen earned long before his Christmas Day arrest once seemed little more than a laughing matter to wife Brooke Mueller. Seven months before she dialed 911 to report her firsthand take on the actor’s bad behavior, Mueller explained how she saw Sheen.
“It’s hysterical to me that he has this reputation,” Mueller told In Touch Weekly. “Charlie is just amazing.”
So amazing, evidently, that the “Two and a Half Men” star’s laundry list of low moments hardly registered with his bride. That’s quite the oversight considering the highlights include a $50,000 call-girl tab, a “no contest” plea to past battery charges and an accidental gunshot wound to short-term fiancée Kelly Preston, just to name a few.
Then again, at the time of the In Touch interview, even Sheen spoke of himself in strictly clean-slate terms, boasting “over a decade of being a sober, law-abiding member of society.”

The recent burglary that left former reality TV dad Jon Gosselin “horrified, disheartened and saddened” may have actually been a PR ploy, or so said an attorney working with Gosselin’s ex gal pal Hailey Glassman.

“It appears to be a huge publicity stunt,” Anand Ahuja told Radar Online. “The police investigation is still ongoing and we are sure the investigation will reveal that someone is trying to frame Hailey. There are no charges against Hailey. … It appears that somebody, and I don't know who that might be, or what their motive might be, is framing her. The detectives are still working on it.”
Ahuja’s comments inspired a quick response by Gosselin’s attorney, Mark Heller, who insisted Glassman “will go to jail” for the alleged crime against the father of eight.
Dish on the fly Actor Jude Law’s apparent rekindled romance with former flame Sienna Miller is a “recipe for disaster,” as far as his parents are concerned. “They have made it abundantly clear he doesn’t have their blessing,” an insider revealed to The Sun. “They believe the relationship was a roller coaster the last time and they were left to pick up the pieces when it finished.” Law and Miller were engaged in 2005 but called off the wedding later that year when it was revealed he cheated on the actress with his children’s nanny, Daisy Wright. … The controversy surrounding W magazine’s December cover shot of Demi Moore just got a little more interesting. The photo, which fashion photographer Anthony Citrano has long-contended features an obviously altered vision of the actress (a claim Moore and those representing her deny), is now on the January cover of Korean W magazine with one undeniable change: The portion of the original photo Citrano and others pointed to as the proof of poor retouching has had an overhaul. In short, Moore’s oddly positioned hip now seems anatomically accurate.
