'It's all good': Charlie Sheen drinks a bottle of red goo labelled 'tiger blood' on the rooftop of the Live Nation headquarters in Beverly Hills yesterday after being fired from Two And A Half Men


He may have been sacked from his sitcom, but it is becoming increasingly clear that Charlie Sheen is perfectly capable of creating his own drama.

The crazed actor topped off a week of bizarre antics by brandishing a machete and drinking a red substance from a bottle labelled Tiger Blood - on top of a roof.

Sheen, 45, was pictured on the roof of live-events company Live Nation's headquarters in Beverly Hills where he held a 'top secret meeting' with contacts, according to U.S. reports.

It came hours after the star lost his $2million-an-episode gig on the CBS show Two And A Half Men yesterday.

Makers Warner Bros fired the actor after sending a damning 11-page letter to his lawyer, accusing him of breaching his contract due to his drug use and failure to seek proper help.

As he stood on the roof of Live Nation, joined by one of his girlfriends Natalie Kenly, Sheen exclaimed: 'Free at last... free at last,' TMZ.com reported.

A statement released by Warner Bros yesterday read: 'After careful consideration, Warner Bros Television has terminated Charlie Sheen's services on Two And A Half Men effective immediately.'

The studio that produces the CBS series said the decision was made after 'careful consideration'.

Sheen's erratic personal life had prompted Warner to suspend production on the show for the season, and Sheen in return had been waging an angry media campaign against the show's producers.

No decision has been made on the future of the series, Warner Bros added in the statement.

Sheen is now preparing to file a lawsuit against Warner Bros and the show's creator Chuck Lorre, according to RadarOnline.

Sheen's lawyer Marty Singer told the celebrity website that he received a termination of contract letter shortly before 2pm yesterday.

The letter stated that Sheen 'engaged in dangerously self-destructive conduct and appears to be very ill'.

'Warner Bros' position is ridiculous,' Singer told the website.

'We will proceed with our claims against Chuck Lorre and Warner Bros. Nothing has changed in terms of that.'

TMZ.com has also published a statement from Sheen, reacting to the termination of his contract.

It read: 'This is very good news. They continue to be in breach, like so many whales. It is a big day of gladness at the Sober Valley Lodge because now I can take all of their bazillions, never have to look at whatshiscock again and I never have to put on those silly shirts for as long as this warlock exists in the terrestrial dimension.'


Last week Singer sent a letter of CBS and Warner Bros threatening legal action and claiming Sheen's contracted had been violated.


In it Singer threatened to sue the companies if Sheen is not paid in full for the rest of the season, which was put on hiatus last month after the star's 36-hour cocaine binge with a gaggle of porn stars.

Singer told TV show bosses Sheen was ready to return to work and take part in the next season too.

Sheen is now expected to demand payment for the ninth season of the sitcom in a lawsuit which has yet to be filed.


The latest rant: Just hours after his sacking, Sheen took to his UStream channel as he chain-smoked, pulled faces and spoke about drinking a 'secret elixir'


Celebrity website TMZ.com claims to have received a copy of the letter sent to Sheen by Warner Bros.

In it the company goes on to describe Sheen trashing the Plaza Hotel in New York last year, his coke binges, on-set failures because of drug-use and his recent diatribes against the show's creator Lorre

The letter apparently explains the decision by Warner Bros. to fire Sheen by stating there is a clause in his contract stating a performer can be sacked if they commit 'a felony offense involving moral turpitude'.

It reads: 'There is ample evidence supporting Warner Bros' reasonable good faith opinion that Mr. Sheen has committed felony offenses involving moral turpitude (including but not limited to furnishing of cocaine to others as part of the self-destructive lifestyle he has described publicly) that have 'interfere[d] with his ability to fully and completely render all material services required' under the agreement.'

Sheen's lawyer responded to these claims, telling RadarOnline: 'Last year, they told Sheen he could plead guilty to a felony and still do the show,” said Singer.

Fallout: Sheen has made a series of disparaging remarks in recent weeks about the show's producer Chuck Lorre, pictured together here in 2009 when Lorre received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame


'Now they are just upset because they say he disparaged Chuck Lorre.

'We intend to file suit against Warner Bros Television, Chuck Lorre and everyone involved.'

Two weeks ago Sheen declared himself free of drugs after having personalised rehab at his Beverly Hills home.

He demanded that production of Two And A Half Men continue, but Warner Bros have been unhappy that Sheen refused the help of an outside treatment facility.

Sheen made a series of insulting remarks about producer and co-creator Chuck Lorre in radio and internet interviews.

Sheen has since given a slew of rambling, sometimes manic interviews, despite insisting he is drug-free after a period of at home rehab in January.

His contract, which has now been terminated, had been due to run until the end of the 2012 TV season.

Two and a Half Men is an American television comedy series which premiered on CBS on in September 2003.

Sheen was on board from the start along with co-stars Jon Cryer and Angus T. Jones.

The show is about hedonistic jingle writer Charlie (played by Sheen), his uptight brother, Alan; and Alan's growing son, Jake.
