Denise Richards’s Reality Show Turns ‘Charlie’ Into a Fairy

March 24, 2008

Ryan Seacrest knows a lot about Denise Richards’s daily activities these days — including her romantic life.

The Idol host, whose company is producing Richards’s upcoming reality show, recently revealed that the former Mrs. Sheen was out with a new man.

“I can tell you she is on a blind date tonight,” Seacrest, 33, told PEOPLE during a Details magazine party to mark its 3rd annual “Mavericks” issue, with Seacrest on the cover.

The Idol host was mum about the lucky guy’s name. But there is one thing Richards is certainly making a point to do: Erase her ex-husband, Charlie Sheen, from her life.

On Friday, Richards, 37, formally requested a family court to legally restore her maiden name from “Denise Sheen.” Over the weekend, she also visited a tattoo parlor where she had her “Charlie” tattoo changed into a fairy — in front of cameras for her show, her rep confirms.

The actress and single mom is set to star in an untitled E! series that will follow her as she “navigates Hollywood, romance and motherhood,” according to the network. The show, to be produced by Seacrest’s company, will debut this summer.

Even before the cameras started rolling, the series had made news over the objections raised by Sheen, who was unhappy with plans to feature their two daughters, Sam, 3, and Lola, 2. (In January, a court commissioner granted Richards permission to include the children on the air.)

Regarding how the kids will factor into the series, Seacrest said, “How we deal with it really is up to her and Charlie. If she wants them to be a part of it, and if its okay, then great. If not, that’s her call. It really is up to her.

“This series is about her life and what she is doing with it. It’s her call. She’s an executive producer on the show, so I’ll leave it to her.” –Scott Huver, Stephen M. Silverman and Julie Jordan

Can’t wait to see the show! Good job Denise!
Your beautiful!!!

MaryAnne March 24th, 2008

I think Denise Richards or Sheen is a skank no matter what name she goes by. You couldn’t pay me to watch a second of her live her life!

bj March 24th, 2008

Leave Charlie alone! He deserves better.

mary March 24th, 2008

First of all, those poor kids. She is shameless.
Good for Charlie to at least try to keep his daughters from their mother’s latest tries at celebrity. She really should leave Charlie alone, and move on without him. and…what’s with that judge? Havn’t seen enough damage done to crazy celebrity kids yet, huh? and….Ryan, you should know better.

bj March 24th, 2008

I agree Maryanne!

Denise is vile. All she’s doing is trying to get publicity and she’s exploiting her children in the process. Stop giving her the exposure.

Lindsy March 24th, 2008

Whatever it takes to get ANY kind of attention right, Denise? Doesn’t matter that you’re a backstabbing, hypocritical liar. Shame on you for forcing your kids into the limelight when they don’t really have a choice. I AGREE WITH CHARLIE on this–EVERYONE SHOULD BOYCOTT THIS ABSOLUTE TRASH OF A SHOW!!! Who cares about Denise anyway? After this comment, CERTAINLY NOT I!! SHAME on the JUDICIAL SYSTEM that is allowing Denise to EXPLOIT HER CHILDREN!!!

Dawn March 24th, 2008

I would never watch this! She’s pimping her children out over the objected on their father. Now we KNOW who the bad parent really is!

(P.S. Ryan says its ‘up to her and Charlie.’ ;) He knows damn well Charlie does NOT want his kids pimped out on Reality TV. You suck too Ryan.

JG March 24th, 2008

Apparently how Charlie’s children are served throughout this train wreck of a television show will be decided by Denise Richards and a judge. The Estevez family has always gone to great lengths to keep their kids out of the press - until Denise came along.

jane March 24th, 2008

Do we really care about her life? Who cares???
