Charlie Sheen Booed Off Stage in Disastrous Debut Show

Losing.

Charlie Sheen's much-hyped, sold out "My Violent Torpedo of Truth" tour began with a bust at Detroit's Fox Theater on Saturday.

According to multiple reports, the 45-year-old star provoked boos, audience walk-outs and demands for refunds during his rambling stage show. (The spectacle featured an appearance by his live-in "goddesses," a Q&A session about Sheen's wild life, film clips featuring his dad Martin Sheen and Johnny Depp, and a live rap by Simon Rexx.)

One disappointed audience member bellowed, "You suck!"

Sheen's retort: "Already got your f***ing money, dude."

After less than an hour, Sheen cut the extravaganza short; he left the stage for good, and the house lights were turned on.

"I want my money back!" audience member Linda Fugate told the Associated Press after walking out of the show. Fugate paid $150 for a pair of tickets. "I was hoping for something," she said. "I didn't think it would be this bad."

Added fellow fan Rodney Gagnon: "I expected him to at least entertainment a little bit. It was just a bunch of ranting."

Inspired by Sheen's ouster from Two and a Half Men following an epic battle with the show's creators and the studio, the 20-city tour is scheduled for the rest of April.

It's hard to feel sorry for a bunch of idiots who would pay good money to see Charlie Sheen. What did they expect?

GOOD!!!!!

AKA · 04-03-2011, 12:22 AM

Well... it seems failure is an option after all!

catlover79 · 04-03-2011, 12:35 AM

The tour comes to Cleveland on Tuesday. It should be...INTERESTING...to find out how he is received here (and tickets are still available). Just a question...are the crowds scarier in Detroit or Philadelphia??

MrCleveland · 04-03-2011, 07:56 AM

Maybe Sheen will break-down and call people names like Michael Richards...he can't get lower than that!

80sTrivia · 04-03-2011, 08:29 AM

No surprises here. I know I'd be mad if I was [foolish enough] to buy tickets to see a man speaking incoherently for an hour and a half...

MickeyMac · 04-03-2011, 12:39 PM

Why dont Charlie Sheen try to do something useful like getting his act together (no pun intended). Also why would people waste good money to go see this idiot????

I would rather watch the grass grow. Its more entertaining.

Exactly. Anyone who bought tickets to see this trainwreck expecting to see some kind of brilliant one man show and then complain about being duped deserves to have their money taken from them.

TJL · 04-03-2011, 03:37 PM

The question now is will this tour make it all the way through?
I'm sure there are masochists out there who have read the reviews of the first show and are now going just to see if it could get any worse, but I doubt Charlie will continue if he keeps getting booed.

Plus, he's a drugged out loon and will probably forget about the tour by next week.

He probably would!!!

catlover79 · 04-03-2011, 04:10 PM

I checked the tour itinerary on Ticketmaster and Philly is not listed. I wonder how bad tonight's show in Chicago will be??

Janice Johnson · 04-03-2011, 04:19 PM

Ouch. A woman paid $150.00 for a Charlie Sheen live show and didn't even get to enjoy it?

With that money, she could have had a 4.99 Mozerella sticks appetizer, 16.99 ribeye steak dinner complete with garlic bread, french fries, and corn on the cob, a 7.99 Tropical Sunrise Margarita, and a 6.99 Molten Lava cake, and including tax and 18 percent tip, it would have come up to about 47.00 at Chili's. She could have bought a 15.00 IMAX ticket, a 7.00 large popcorn, and a 6.00 large soda, 28.00 at the movie theater. She could have also bought a 35.00 DVD player, including tax, and a 30.00 Collector's Edition DVD of a movie including tax. Together, that would have been 65.00. She would still have had an extra 10.00 left from the 150.00 after buying all of this. That woman wasted her 150.00 on charlie Sheen.
