Charlie Sheen managed to get himself into some controversy again while in Washington, DC, on Tuesday night. He and his entourage managed to grab a police escort so he could drive it at 80mph to his show, presidential style, to which he was running almost an hour late. The Washington Post looked into the matter, but no one will say exactly how such a thing was arranged or who paid for it. A police spokesperson says it's "under investigation." Griped one DC council member, "Citizens of the District don’t want to see their police force used to escort private citizens and that Charlie Sheen, of all people, is getting a personal escort."
Also, while Sheen himself told the world that he is “not bipolar,” he’s “bi-winning”, he has recently donated $5,880 to the Calgary-based Organization for Bipolar Affective Disorders, the New York Daily News reports. That amount matches the amount his fans donated during an odd and somewhat controversial charity march Sheen staged in support of the group last week in Toronto, during which he sported a hat that said, “I’M NOT BIPOLAR.” A rep for the group calls the hat insulting, but says, “We’re happy to receive the funds.”
