Charlie Sheen to Denise Richards: You're a ... N-gger
Celebrity quotes often makes us laugh, or cringe or wanna find the nearest rope to tie around the neck of Spencer Pratt.
However, the following words - uttered by Charlie Sheen to Denise Richards in a series of voice mails he allegedly left his insane, pathetic ex-wife - take the inappropriate, ridiculous, racist cake.
On tapes that mysteriously just popped up all over the Internet, Sheen went off on Richards:
I hope I never f-cking talk to you again you f-cking c-nt. F-ck you. You're a coward and a liar and a f-cking n-gger alright, so f-ck you.
We have numerous reactions to this rant:
- Sheen likes f-cking more than Lindsay Lohan;
- The sheer stupidity of saying such things on a voice mail almost trumps what was actually said;
- Which do you think was the bigger insult to black people: The use of the N word, or the implication that Denise Richards is African-American?
Overall, as we've rightfully depicted Richards as an attention whore of an awful mother over the last few weeks, we've forgotten that Charlie Sheen is no Beaver Cleaver himself. The prostitute and pornography lover appears to be a racist moron.
Make a run for it, Brooke Mueller.

Sheen calling Richards a n*gger has nothing to do with black people. Look up the word. It appears he used it in context. What's shocking is that these two people cannot move on.

Call me naiive, but I don't think he was calling her African-American. I think he was calling her just what he said...almost like an a$$hole of sorts.
However, I can imagine that she is really the racist one, so maybe for her n#@$ does mean African American and for her that's a huge insult, and maybe that was the only thing he could think of that would really piss her off.
Anyway, I won't assume but I hope he's not a "Kramer" because then I will have to stop watching Two and Half Men. And for the record I am an African-American and it's GRRREAT!

Charlie Sheen is stupid. Denise Richards is so hot. I am a woman. I don't like to think other women are hot. However, Denise Richards is so beautiful to the degree I have to admit she is beautiful. I don't care what she did. She stole Heather's husband, who cares? Heather is a ugly woman. Charle Sheen, I can't wait to see you get divorce and pay the bitch... Ha Ha Ha

It seems every time a celebrity rants in anger he/she pops out with this word. This is why many African Americans have such underlying mistrust and dislike of whites. We know deep down(not so deep) what white America really thinks of us. I was never a Charlie Sheen fan to any degree and what he thinks of blacks on individual basis really doesn't affect me. He does represent the mindset of mainstream(white)America which he actually has nerve since he's a minority himself(hispanic decent) and I do now believe the things his ex-wife says. He's been trying to deny her alligations well now we can read for ourselves the true low life he is.

and the N-word is actually derived from the Latin word niger which does mean black(in color), but it also means someone lacking in general intelligence and sophistication. That is where the insult lies because it makes the assumption that all persons of African American decent lack essentially intelligence and not incapable of sophistication, style,manners, etc like our white counterparts which of course is a load of crap!!

Frankly I think Denise Richards IS of African American heritage. I disdain Charlie SHeen's rant. It's profane and viscerally racist. But just as his paternal heritage is Latino, not Anglo in any manner, I do believe that Denise is hiding her true racial identity, and probably is cause for some of the rage that fractured that marriage. Just my opinion. But study her facial features, her mannerisms. And I'm African American. I believe she lied about her racial identity and for anyone the likes of Charlie Sheen, a pseudo-Anglo himself, I would think that is a NO-NO!!! Denise Richards is at best a creole; she looks identically like my cousins

Apparently, some folks are saying that Denise Richards is, indeed, part African American. One of her grandmothers is Black and this is what Sheen was calling out. I find it interesting that when things get down to the bone, the racism comes out. I wonder if Emilio ever pulled that type of nonsense on Paula?
June 19th, 2008 3:29 PM
I agree. If you look it up in the dictionary it's ignorant. And apparently she is ignorant. He used it in the right context.
I wish the two of them would move on. It's been years, people are trying to forget you, but how can we when you (DENISE) bring your garbage to the forefront all of the time. I never hear anything about Charlie, only that he wants to see his kids. Get a life, Denise.

This comment is to linda......it doesn't matter how or why he used it he should not have. That word is very offensive especially to the people that it is used on the most (Black People) I put both you and him in the same boat right now. This is PURE stupidity on both of your parts. He should know better.
June 20th, 2008 6:03 PM
hahaha thisis awesome! Charlie is the man! it was defused in context. to those ppl who take offense... there is a reason u take offense... i dont take offense when ppl call me names because im old enough and mature enough to not let NAME CALLING HURT ME WHEN I KNOW ITS NOT TRUE

Is this how white people talk to each other when no one else is watching?
June 25th, 2008 11:54 PM
of course using the 'N' word has everything to do with his lack of respect for black people. Anyone who uses it thinking that it is supposed to refer to anything else is kidding themselves.
June 25th, 2008 11:56 PM
i meant to add that he is a loser. How do you speak to the mother of your children like that? Then again, Richards was stupid for marrying him as is the current wife. He is a recovering addict who frequented prostitutes. What was she expecting?

Just for the people saying Charlie Sheen is part "latino". There is no such thing as a "latino" race. Charlie Sheen's grand father was from Spain, and Spaniards are White Europeans. I am of Spanish descent and I will take offense if anyone tells me I'm not a White person, because that is what Spaniards are. Thank you, bye.

To mememe, uh, you are aware that the Moors invaded Spain for quite some time and this is where an extensive amount of the culture comes from, no? Spain also has large populations of people of Jewish and Arab descent, in addition to the African ancestry, hence the dark features of many Spaniards. To say that Spaniards are purely White is simply not the case. This history is well documented.

So Sheen has 'gone Imus' on us. I would've said 'gone Gibson', or gone Michael Richards, but it seems like there's a new racist blurt every month now. They're followed by the usual explanations of 'I didn't mean it', 'I didn't know that it was wrong', or even 'I was drunk/stoned out of my head when I said that'. So do you think that they'll cancel 2 1/2 Men, or just replace Chuck? It shouldn't be too hard, since almost every member of the Brat Pack needs work these days. Who likes Judd Nelson for the part??

mememe, u are stupid!!!

I am Spanish (spain), and what you say Grisel is a barbarity, the Moors were never more than 2% of the Spanish population, and were expelled by the Catholic Monarchs along with the Jews, everything is in history books, it is a pity all myths that you have
sorry for my english

Arabs ruled Spain for HUNDREDS OF YEARS. This is why you can tell the difference between a Spaniard and an Englishman. Face it, Spanish have darker blood in them, and it's apparent from their hair (almost always dark) to their dark eyes to their olive skin.
Ever seen blondes in England? Lots of them. But in Spain, not that many. This is a fact and everyone knows it.
Still, Arabs are Caucasians by race anyway. But if you're Spanish, don't act like you're some pure blood Englishman.
The Spanish, like the Italians, were conquered by Arabs and that Arab blood is easily seen.

look up the word n i g g e r and you will find that it doesn't mean black people or african american.....it means lazy, slotful,ignorant....anyone who fits the mold of this definition.....we as black people have a hard time with this word because it was used in reference to us.....we ourself still use the word not understanding the damage still being caused today......if we want to get passed the word we have to be willing to give the word up. charlie used it in the right text when talking to her and unless we were there....we have no idea what was meant when he said it.
