The actor, 60, sat down with Channel 9 journalist Amelia Adams on the current affairs program as he hits the publicity trail for his new tell-all memoir, “The Book of Sheen,” and Netflix documentary “aka Charlie Sheen.”

The former “Two and a Half Men” star revealed that at the height of his drug use, he was cut off from his drug supply by a Mexican cartel.

“The cartel cut you off?” a stunned Adams asked.

“They did,” Sheen answered. “They had never seen someone acquiring that kind of weight, you know, and so the only other people that they were delivering that kind of weight to were dealers, and they thought I was dealing on the side.”

Adams then asked Sheen if rumors he once smoked “7 grams of crack cocaine” in one sitting were true.

“Well, we never like took one out of the pipe and put it on a scale,” he said.

“However, yeah, that was the amount that was cooked to get it into that form. I remember at one point the ‘Jaws’ moment, ‘Uh, we’re going to need a bigger pipe.’”

Sheen giggled, adding, “It’s kind of funny, no?”

You're right, Charlie, it is kind of funny that you were cut off by the cartel. Is it true? I'm not so sure, you be the judge…

Seems true to me. It makes sense too…there is almost no one on earth that loves cocaine as much as Charlie Sheen. I wrote about it a few weeks back. At his peak he was smoking so much crack and doing so much coke that it literally turned him gay…

So yeah, it doesn't seem far off that the cartels would cut him off. He would pick up fifteen grand worth of coke at a time, party, then give it away to everyone around him including his drug dealer Marco who looks like this…

Credit to Marco—he was the one who actually got Charlie off drugs by gradually decreasing the purity over the course of a year. (Genius). Still a scumbag though. Anyway, I love Charlie. $1.8 million per episode and he pissed it all away only to emerge victorious. What a legend. Check out the doc if you haven't already. Well worth the watch.
