Charlie Sheen I'm Donating $1 MILLION to U.S. Troops
tmz ^ | 7/16 | tmz

Charlie Sheen hasn't spent all of his money on crack and hookers ... in fact, the Warlock has announced he's donating ONE MILLION DOLLARS to support our men and women in uniform.

Sheen has pledged to give at least $1 million to the U.S.O (United Service Org.) ... the largest single contribution the USO has ever received from an individual.

Sheen says he will donate 1% of the profits from his "Anger Management" earnings ... with a minimum of $1 mil ... and an unlimited cap. So the more $ he makes from his show, the more $ goes to the USO.

General John I. Pray, Jr., Executive Vice President and Joint Chief of Staff, U.S. Air Force released a statement saying, “[Sheen's] support is greatly appreciated, especially from our wounded warriors and their families.”

Sheen also released a statement saying, "It’s an honor for me to be able to give back to these men and women of the military who have done so much for all of us."

He adds, "They put their lives on the line for us every day, and I’m just happy that my work on 'Anger Management' can bring a little bit of relief to the troops and their families.”

Great thing for him to do.

I am kind of shocked. Wonder what his dad thinks.

If Robert Downey Jr can make it back, so can Charlie.

This can’t go over well with his peers - maybe he really does have tigerblood.

Okay, so I am a little skeptical of the 1% PROFITS of his Anger Management earnings since Hollywood is notorious for cooking the books to show a loss..but he did say a minimum of 1 million...so I still have to give him a thanks for doing something worthwhile.

Does Charlie even have the money? I would have thought by now he didn’t have much.

Still, if this is for real, kudos to Charlie.

OK Charlie, now I'll stop,...if you're in a crosswalk.

Keep it up and I'll get even nicer.

Anger Management is a good show. Might be a bit risque for some but not nearly as much a 2 1/2 Men.

Good for the Warlock.

We all know how Hollywood cooks the books. Star Wars has’n’t earned a profit yet...yeah...right. However, he said one percent of his earnings, not one percent of profits. I don’t see how the books can be cooked on that. He either gets paid or he doesn’t.
