Charlie Sheen apologizes after dropping the N-bomb
Denise Richards released a three-year-old voicemail left by ex-hubby Charlie Sheen in which he drops the N-bomb.

According to AOL News, the Two and a Half Men star can be heard calling his ex-wife a “f------ n-----“ along with some other — probably in the four-letter category — insults.

Who keeps a voicemail for three years? Seriously. Richards seems like an evil mastermind who has been plotting to take down Sheen from the get-go of their relationship. And it looks like Sheen is colour-blind because he didn’t notice his wife was white.

But Sheen was quick in mounting a response to the release of the tape.

"I deeply apologize by my choice of words to all I have obviously offended, especially to Tony Todd, an African-American, who was my best man at my first two weddings," he told Us Magazine.

This is called the “I have a black friend so I’m not a racist” defence.

Sheen also told Us that the reasons for such a harsh spouting of words are always present in his life and he’s learned to control his anger, even when his “children did not show up today for a custodial visit without explanation."

The couple split back in 2006 and have been going for each other’s jugulars ever since.

But now Sheen gets to join the elite of Hollywood who have been busted for dropping a racial slur.

Among the fine group are: Duane "Dog" Chapman, star of Dog the Bounty Hunter; Michael Richards, Seinfeld’s Kramer; and Isaiah Washington, former Grey’s Anatomy star.
