Sheen released a statement saying, "You could say I've been providing kindling for this Roast for a while ... It's time to light it up.& It's going to be epic."

"It's not like you can take any of it personally," Sheen said. "I'm actually looking forward to how creative they can get."
"Mike Tyson, Jackass star Steve-O and TMZ's Harvey Levin will all roast Charlie Sheen on Comedy Central's upcoming special. Comedians Anthony Jeselnik and Jeffrey Ross are also lined up for the event, which will tape on Saturday, Sept. 10 in Los Angeles. Productions.
