“Notorious Hollywood Madam Heidi Fleiss made a rare appearance on Thursday, as she joined her former client Charlie Sheen at the premiere of his Netflix docuseries.”, — write: www.dailymail.co.uk
Fleiss, 59, proved there were no hard feelings between her and the Two And A Half Men star, 60, after he testified at her trial back in 1995, as she attended the event promoting Sheen’s new show, titled ‘aka Charlie Sheen.’
During his testimony, Sheen admitted to hiring her escorts from Fleiss at least 27 times and paying them in excess of $53,500.
Fleiss — who will be played by Aubrey Plaza in an upcoming biopic — was convicted of federal tax evasion charges in 1996. She was sentenced to seven years in prison, but only served 20 months of her sentence at a federal correctional institution.
And though she and Charlie did not pose for photos together, she supported the actor with a smile on her face, as she posed for the cameras.
Fleiss also participated in his two-part docuseries. In the trailer she calls Sheen a ‘crybaby pu*** bi***’ adding, ‘He testified against me and I went to jail.’
Sheen was also joined by ex-wife Denise, 54, who is currently going through an ugly divorce from estranged husband Aaron Phypers.
While on the red carpet Fleiss wore a long black coat with light brown sleeves.
She paired the look with black pants and matching flip flops. She wore her black hair styled in bouncy curls.
Fleiss has been open about her early career, in which she briefly worked as a prostitute.
After she was mentored by another madam running a prostitution ring in Beverly Hills, Fleiss went solo in 1990 and launched her own prostitution ring catering to wealthy clients in Hollywood.
But the organization was short-lived, as Fleiss was arrested in 1993 on charges of pandering, tax evasion, and money laundering after prosecutors accused her of laundering $1.5 million through a series of shell companies with falsified records.
After her 1996 conviction, and having served 20 months of her seven-year sentence, she was released to a halfway house, where she began the rest of her sentence, which included a requirement to complete 370 hours of community service.
While at the event, her former client Charlie cut a dapper figure in a dark grey jacket, dark jeans, and a white button-up.
Sheen, who completed his outfit with black sneakers, happily posed with his ex-wife Denise.
Meanwhile Denise had all eyes on her in a shimmering black crop top, and silk black pants.
The Wild Things star wore her blonde presses parted on the side and cascading down in a straight style.
Richards and Sheen married in 2002 and divorced in 2006. They have two daughters together, Sam and Lola.
During his explosive divorce from Denise in 2005, she accused him of making death threats against her, shoving her and endangering their children with his penchant for call girls and pornography.
But later, the two seemed civil when he guest starred on her last reality TV show, Denise Richards & Her Wild Things.
At Thursday’s premiere, Sheen was also joined by the producer of his show, Charles Roven.
‘Nothing’ is off limits in director Andrew Renzi’s new two-part docuseries aka Charlie Sheen, which premieres September 10 on Netflix.
‘When you got a lot of shame about a lot of stuff… Shame is suffocating,’ the former Hollywood bad boy confessed in the trailer.
‘I lit the fuse, you know, and my life turns into everything it wasn’t supposed to be.’
Charlie (born Carlos Estévez) added: ‘The stuff that I plan on sharing, I had made a sacred vow to only reveal to a therapist.’
The self-described ‘tabloid black hole’ was notoriously fired from his lucrative $1.8M/episode gig on CBS sitcom Two and a Half Men following his third attempt at rehab in 12 months.
Incredibly, the doc features Sheen’s former drug dealer Marco, who swore: ‘When Charlie said that he was smoking seven-gram [crack cocaine] rocks, he was smoking seven-gram rocks.’
Also included in the doc were Sheen’s second ex-wife Denise, third ex-wife Brooke Mueller, childhood Malibu pal Sean Penn, showrunner Chuck Lorre, his Two and a Half Men co-star Jon Cryer, his Money Talks co-star Chris Tucker, and his big brother Ramón Estévez.
