Charlie Sheen & Woman Settle Lawsuit

Image and video hosting by TinyPicCharlie Sheen has settled a lawsuit against him filed by a woman who claimed that one of the characters on his hit TV show "Two and a Half Men" was based on her.

Ursula Auburn sued Sheen in April 2006, claiming the "wacky neighbor and female stalker Rose" on the show was based on her. The way Rose talks, dresses and looks all resemble Auburn, the lawsuit claimed. Sheen never sought Auburn's permission, according to the suit.

The suit was settled March 14, according to Superior Court documents, which do not disclose more details.

The lawsuit claimed there were numerous situations on the show involving Rose and Sheen's character, Charlie Harper, that resembled experiences Auburn had with the actor.

That included an episode where Rose creates a Web site detailing Harper's womanizing ways, according to the lawsuit. In real life, Auburn created a web site detailing her relationship with Sheen.

Calls on Saturday night to Sheen's attorney, Bruce Isaacs, and Auburn's attorney, Edward Kang, were not immediately returned.

Holy shit. He's got Manson eyes. Okay, not really, I know they're coke/speed or whatever eyes, but still - Creep City.

lolz @ this woman. I mean, publically claiming "Oh, that crazy stalker is totes based on me! Remember that episode where she made that website? I did that first, only CRAZIER!"

...

...Yeah, not something I'd want to own up to. Then again, this woman was already operating on Crazy.

What a stupid ass reason to sue someone.
[info]jiesa 16th-Apr-2007 01:46 am (UTC)

Oh yes, because, you know, if you are a crazed stalker you totally want the world to know that.

How is he employeed?
If you watch this show, you suck.
[info]kyteaura 16th-Apr-2007 02:10 am (UTC)
*Watches the show and sucks pretty damn good*

I pretty much like anything by Chuck Lorre.
and Jon Cryer is hysterrical. Have you ever watched an episode?

anyway, i don't necessarily like him as a person, but hes humorous.
[info]poppyspiral 16th-Apr-2007 02:22 am (UTC)
I can't watch it because he bothers me so much. I loved Jon Cryer as Duckie so I can see him being watchable but still...

IAWTC
It's so lame and cheesy.
[info]love_luxury 16th-Apr-2007 02:24 am (UTC)
don't think i'd want to own up to something like that. but since she is crazy she'll do anything i guess...
[info]nappyxheadedxho 16th-Apr-2007 02:37 am (UTC)
Why would you even want to relate yourself to "Two and a Half Men"? If I was her I would take the secret to my grave. Well she is crazy after all so it only makes sense.
[info]bunny_lita 16th-Apr-2007 02:52 am (UTC)
For money, I'd say "One Tree Hill" was all my idea, and that show is crap.
[info]bunny_lita 16th-Apr-2007 02:51 am (UTC)
That's the only character I like on that show. I haven't watched it in forever though.
[info]poison_is_queen 16th-Apr-2007 03:01 am (UTC)
I've never seen this show but from the thread title I assumed one of the thousands of sluts he's banged had sued him. Apparently not.

God, who'd stalk Charlie Sheen? Anyone who wants him can have him. Just wait until he's high enough not to care who he's fucking.
[info]madame_pants 16th-Apr-2007 03:26 am (UTC)
i wouldn't admit that rose's character was based on me.
hell no.
[info]thunder_rose 16th-Apr-2007 03:32 am (UTC)
well it probably wasn't so hard for her b/c she most likely got 'nuff money for the lawsuit.
[info]thunder_rose 16th-Apr-2007 03:31 am (UTC)
that show is so great, even my dad loves it!
[info]andisprohi 16th-Apr-2007 08:19 am (UTC)
Y'all know Ursula will climb up the balcony tonight
and talk about this thread with Charlie.
"Now I will give you one more chance to
admit you're sorry. Or I'll have to
never speak to you again. *puppy eyes*"
[info]doctordance 16th-Apr-2007 09:49 am (UTC)
lol i always wonder about annoying characters based on someone IRL, and them finding out! i wonder if it made her realise she was annoying
[info]wateringcan 16th-Apr-2007 05:10 pm (UTC)
Er, cant Sheen sue her back for the website then? why would you want to be known as the person a stalker was based on?
