Hanes announced today that they have dropped Charlie Sheen from their ad campaign, citing the Christmas Eve arrest for domestic violence. The underwear company based in Winston-Salem, N.C. released a statement saying, "Given the publicity, it makes sense to not air those ads right now, for the company and for Mr. Sheen". A publicist for Sheen disagreed, "While we adamantly deny that Mr. Sheen has done anything wrong, it only makes sense to keep running those ads and make more as soon as possible" She went on to say, "Hanes should use this publicity to sell product and strike while the iron's hot". "We don't want to air Mr. Sheen's dirty laundry, but who better to sell wifebeaters than a real, true-life, alleged wifebeater." Sheen, the star of the CBS sitcom "Two and a Half Men" and legendary Hollywood man-whore, has been doing Hanes ads for 2 years, often featured with Hall of Fame Basketball player and adulterer Michael Jordan.
