Answer:
Charlie Sheen
The son of actor Martin Sheen, Charlie Sheen gained fame and critical praise for his performances in such films as "Platoon," "Wall Street," and "Major League" and for his roles in TV shows "Spin City" and "Two and a Half Men". But after an increasingly-fraught lifestyle, which included legal troubles brought on by alcohol and drug abuse, destroying hotel rooms, and domestic violence, Sheen was suspended and later fired from "Two and a Half Men" in 2011. This action led to a series of bizarre media appearances, resulting in a failed attempt to re-establish his career. His hard partying also had health consequences. Sheen suffered a cocaine-induced stroke in 1998, and he announced in 2015 that he had been diagnosed as HIV positive sometime in 2011.
