Actor Charlie Sheen has been celibate for eight years, he revealed in an interview ahead of the release of both a new memoir and a documentary exploring his life. They delve into the Two and a Half Men star’s journey to sobriety, via the pitfalls of addiction and being diagnosed with HIV, to where he is now, a proud father who turned 60 last week. He told Page Six there’s “not enough room in my car” for a relationship, and when he was asked if that meant celibacy, he added, “If I don’t have a girlfriend and I’m not paying for it, then I think the math is pretty simple.” The Platoon star added, “Oh my gosh, for so long [sex] was all I cared about, or it was near the top of the priority list. And so I just saw [celibacy] as a needed break from those pursuits. That’s not me slamming the door on anything in the future. No, I would absolutely welcome some type of companionship.” The Book of Sheen was released Sept. 9, while aka Charlie Sheen, drops Sept. 10, filled with revelations such as that he was born dead, lost his virginity in Las Vegas to a prostitute, and despite using cocaine and crack, never used ketamine, the killer of his pal and late Friends star, Matthew Perry.
