I know, I know: A story about a celebrity that doesn’t involve them acting like an entitled twerp? Every once in a while, a celebrity actually does some good and we like to give credit where credit is due. Anyway, Charlie Sheen decided to spread a little Christmas cheer with the insane amount of money he has by giving $75,000 to a little girl with a really nasty form of cancer. Charlie Sheen really is putting the ‘ho’ back in ‘ho ho ho.’ HA! I’m clever. TMZ reports …
TMZ has learned … Charlie was recently having a conversation with a Hermosa Beach police officer (don’t worry he was not being arrested) and learned about a cop whose 10-year-old daughter Jasmine had been diagnosed with Childhood Rhabdomyosarcoma. FYI — CR is a nasty form of cancer that occurs in the muscle tissue and requires over a year of expensive medical treatments like chemo and radiation therapy.
We’re told … Charlie told the officer, “No parent should have to watch their kid go through that” … and vowed to help. The next day Charlie fired off a check for $75,000 to the Hermosa Beach Police Assoc. — which had started a fund in Jasmine’s honor. And there’s more … Charlie’s stunt-double Eddie Braun also chipped in –and cut a check for an additional $25,000 … which is almost more impressive, since he doesn’t even make a fraction of what Charlie makes.
Good for him for giving a whole bunch of money to a worthy cause. At least this time we can be confident that this little girl thanked him for his generous donation. Isn’t that right, Lindsay Lohan?
