Charlie Sheen: I'm High ... on Charlie Sheen!

Charlie Sheen admits in a new interview with ABC's 20/20, which will air Tuesday and will be teased on GMA tomorrow, that he is SO high on a drug.

You know that drug as Charlie Sheen.

The actor, who went OFF on his boss last week after CBS shut down production on Two and a Half Men, wants to share his side of the story. Again.

"I have one speed. I have one gear. Go!" says Sheen, who will not accept defeat (at what, no one knows) to ABC. "I dare you to keep up with me."

Andrea Canning, who visited Sheen and his goddesses, Bree Olson and Natalie Kenly at his home this weekend, even learned what he's high on:

"I am on a drug. It's called Charlie Sheen."

The actor entered an "at home rehab program" after an epic bender last month and is currently feuding with the producers of his hit CBS show.

Why is he speaking out, seemingly every day? "There's wrongs to be righted and stories to tell," he says. "People need to hear my side of it."

"Need" is a strong word. But we do enjoy it.

Uncensored Rihanna Photo Taken After Chris Brown Beating: Revealed, Disturbing

Earlier this week, a judge allowed Chris Brown to once again have contact with former girlfriend Rihanna, tossing the restraining order against him.

With the passage of time, and Brown doing an exemplary job with his probation, one practically forgets that he beat his one-time lady love senseless.

Until today, when MediaTakeOut posted uncensored photos of Rihanna's battered face after the attack - pictures even more graphic than you think.

Follow the jump to see one of the images. Warning: It's upsetting ...

This was apparently taken at a hospital back in 2009, following the brutal attack on Rihanna by Brown on the eve of that year's Grammy Awards ceremony.

Contrast it with a TMZ's original photo (below), and the new image, due to its clarity and likely its timeliness, makes the attack appear even more savage:

Brown eventually pleaded guilty to assaulting Rihanna but was not sentenced to jail. He was given five years' probation and ordered to stay away from the singer.

While he has complied with the probation and all its requirements - counseling, extensive community labor - these images will hurt Brown's image forever.

After what he did, as illustrated by these photos - not that it would have made it okay, but this was more than a one-punch flare-up, clearly - it probably should.

Lifting the restraining order is one thing, but if we were Rihanna, we'd think long and hard before moving forward with any sort of reconciliation.

Rosie O'Donnell responds to 'Glee' comment

By Greg Hernandez

HollywoodNews.com: Rosie O'Donnell has never been afraid to speak her mind and God bless her for it.

But sometimes, the Emmy-winning talk show host's words get her into trouble with her fellow celebs. Most recently, an interview Rosie gave to ‘Access Hollywood’ panning ‘Glee's’ storyline involving the overweight high school character of Lauren (played by Ashley Fink) who is being pursued by one of the school's jocks (played by Mark Salling).

I posted about this a few days ago but to refresh your memory, Rosie was quoted as saying: "Every woman I know who's heavy has very strong feelings about that storyline. They're like, 'Can you believe that? I think it's horrible. That never happens in school. That character is so unlikeable. Why didn't they get a pretty heavy girl?'"

Rosie reached out to Ashley via Twitter today: "oh ashley – i love ur swagger – ur acting – ur face – ur heart – as a famous fat person – i am often asked about the issue … i love the story line – i love the show – and if in any way something i said hurt u – i apologize … u r so talented and i cant wait to hear u belt it …as i know u can- the often misquoted rosie"

Replied Ashley: "Awh thanks Rosie O! I adore you. Seriously heart you hard. I admire your strong opinions, and have always looked up to you… Now whadda ya say we make a karaoke date and show these folk how big girls get down?! Hahah. For real! Hollar at yo girl!"

Replied Rosie: "I AM TOTALLY IN !!!!! MY TREAT XXXX ONLY LUV 2 U KIDDO!!"

NATE IN NEXT: It would seem to me that if you put a handsome guy like Nate Berkus on the cover of your magazine, a lot more people are going to be interested in picking up a copy!

So smart move by ‘Next,’ the New York City gay guide, for featuring Mr. Berkus as his syndicated daytime show nears its 100th episode. Nate seems to have gotten a lot more comfortable as the months have gone on and is now very natural and funny.

"’The Nate Berkus Show’ is sort of an extension of my personal belief system," he tells the mag. "It's a no-judgment zone; everybody is welcome here, and I'm very free in talking about my sexuality on TV. I want my audience to see people presented in a respectable way, so they can make their own decisions about how they feel."

Here's an excerpt from the article:

He's almost two years into a relationship with a Columbia University-educated architect: they met at a mutual friend's party. "He has a very level head," Berkus proffers while keeping the guy's name hush-hush. "Wise, very pragmatic and a creative person as well." While he downplays what they did for Valentine's Day ("I got him a book on a museum and we went to a friend's party"), he's more forthcoming about a few important events happening later this year: the launch of an expanded home product line in partnership with Springs Global and a new book.

And of course, he has designs in mind for future guests. "I would love to have Michelle Obama," he muses. "I think she's an incredible first lady and style icon. Writer Michael Pollan, because he changed the way I look at food through his book The Omnivore's Dilemma. I eat no processed food as a result. And Tina Fey. Adore, love her. I know her. I actually am angling for a guest spot on ‘30 Rock.’ I can't tell you the idea behind it, but I have a concept I would love to do."

LEGENDARY LIZA: It is hard to believe but Liza Minnelli is turning 65 next month!

Since she has so famously had her ups and downs, it is so great to see this legendary star officially become a senior citizen. Not that she is acting like one!

Liza is busy promoting her new CD called ‘Confessions’ and attending a Lady Gaga concert earlier this week at Madison Square Garden.

Charlie Sheen, Brooke Mueller, Bree Olson & Natalie Kenly: Vacation Bound!

Charlie Sheen needs a break from not working. He's reportedly headed to the tropics, and is won't be vacationing there alone: Insiders tell Radar Online that the actor is going away with a group that includes Brooke Mueller, Bree Olson and a woman named Natalie Kenly, possibly the mystery woman he was spotted kissing earlier this week. This shocking/hilarious news breaks just hours after we learned Mueller was moving back in with the man who once threatened to kill her. "Charlie is back to his old self - and that's not a good thing," a source says. "[He] talked about building a porn family and now he's got these three women all living with him and taking off on vacation with him." Backing up this story, Olson Tweeted last night: Going to a tropical wonder for a little while to relax with friends :) minimal tweets so hold tight! Be home soon babies! Just try not to be home soon with babies, Bree. That was evidently a problem for another one of Sheen's porn star pals.

'Glee' star responds to Rosie O'Donnell's comments

By Greg Hernandez HollywoodNews.com: Has it not been terrific to see the character of Lauren (played so wonderfully by Ashley Fink) be so aggressively pursued by the studly Puck (Mark Salling) on recent episodes of ‘Glee’? To have an overweight high school student be so full of confidence is a great message to send and, I'm sure, a great help to those young viewers struggling with their weight. Brandon Voss has chatted with Ashley for ‘The Advocate’ and as I read it, I realized that I had met Ashley and chatted with her a bit at the Outfest screening of Ash Christian's movie ‘Fat Girls.’ It's nice to see that she has gotten this breakthrough role on one of the hottest television shows ever. She tells Brandon about her connections to gays: "Growing up "other" in any way, whether it be gay, chubby, or whatever, you have to fight. Kurt's bullying storyline on ‘Glee’ has really resonated with me because middle school was terrible for me. I had curly blonde hair, I was chubby, I went to school with all these rich kids, and I was just miserable. I'd leave in tears every day. I remember thinking, This is not going to be my life. I had to find my power, so I developed a quick wit. After a while, I didn't take anybody's shit. I was like, You've pushed me around, and I'm bored with you. Luckily, I got a scholarship to a performing arts high school, and I ended up having a great high school experience. I overcame." But what has really made news in recent days is Rosie O'Donnell's unflattering comments about the Lauren-Puck storyline. Here is the part of the interview in which Ashley addresses it: The Lauren and Puck romance on ‘Glee’ has been causing quite a stir in the blogosphere, but the controversy seems to have come to a head after last week's episode with Rosie O'Donnell's statements to ‘Access Hollywood’ about the onscreen pairing. "Every woman I know who's heavy has very strong feelings about that storyline," she said. "They're like, 'Can you believe that? I think it's horrible. That never happens in school. That character is so unlikable. Why didn't they get a pretty heavy girl?'" She went on to say that "every story deserves to be told," but what's your take on her more unflattering observations? It's so crazy. Rosie's been talking about me for a bit now, and it was very positive. Then she was on ‘Access Hollywood,’ promoting a new hairstyle or something, and for some reason she decided to talk about me again. I've been a fan of Rosie's for a long time — for Christmas one year I asked for a Koosh ball like she threw at people because I thought she was the coolest lady ever — so I am surprised at the comments she made. I've got swagger too, so I don't find my storyline unrealistic. When I went to performing arts high school, I did date the cutest boy in school, and I sang whatever song I wanted. My storyline has resonated with a lot of people, plus-sized and not, who don't feel "other," so I'm honored to portray Lauren. Rosie particularly expressed her problems with Lauren's solo, "I Know What Boys Like," because she expected more of a "Susan Boyle moment." Lauren was nervous. Everyone has a weak spot, and Lauren had stage fright. Glee club is opening up her heart, so I hope that the next time she sings she gets to shake the rafters. You're active on Twitter. What's the fan response been since Rosie's statements? What a way to wake up on a Friday, right? My followers were like, "What?! Ashley's beautiful!" I was like, OK, something must've happened while I was asleep.
