Charlie’s Secret Is Out: That Sheen Is Pure Sweat

Those birthdays that end in zero arouse big emotions. Especially that third one.

Charlie Sheen turned 30 on Sunday, and he celebrated by getting married in Malibu, Calif. His bride: 25-year-old model Donna Peele, whom he has known a whole six weeks.

Sheen, who admitted paying $50,000 to Heidi Fleiss for some 27 sexual trysts, met Peele on a commercial shoot in New York. And the meeting seems to have changed him a bit.

“Just when I thought I was the luckiest guy alive, I just got a lot luckier,” said the son of Martin Sheen and brother of Emilio Estevez. “She’s my best friend, and we’ve both found our soul mates.”

Yet when asked whether he was nervous, Sheen pointed to his sweatstained shirt. “Does this answer your question?” he asked.
