Charlie Sheen on Twitter

Actor Charlie Sheen has been in the news a lot this week, and today is no exception. The former star of “Two and a Half Men” set the Guinness World Record for “Fastest Time to Reach 1 Million Followers” on Twitter, doing so in 25 hours and 17 minutes (Sheen joined on March 1).

Surprisingly, he has actually tweeted. In his first tweet, he uploaded a photo in which his head replaced the head on the Oscar statue. Sheen also has @replied and retweeted.

In addition, Sheen is following a few people, mostly celebrities. With Sheen’s apparent popularity on Twitter, I think he could try to leverage it to get the $3 million he is demanding from CBS to return to his TV show. However, I’m not so sure CBS is going to budge.
