Charlie Sheen in Chicago: Got a confidence boost from audience

SHARE Charlie Sheen in Chicago: Got a confidence boost from audience

WASHINGTON–Charlie Sheen brought his tour to Chicago on Sunday night, getting his act together at the Chicago Theater, and wants to return to the city where the actor got a warmer reception than Detroit, Sun-Times columnist Bill Zwecker reports.

I’m taking a short break from the regular political programming in this blog–because I am fascinated by the entire Sheen saga, only recently becoming a fan of reruns of “Two and a Half Men.” (Still sticking with “Scrubs” reruns as my top chill show…) Anyway...Zwecker has the Sheen scoop in his Tuesday column:

Zwecker reports on Sheen building his confidence in Chicago: “As the actor shared with several people Sunday night, Chicago’s welcoming mood — coming on the heels of the disastrous Detroit launch of his live tour — gave him a huge psychological boost.”
