Denise Richards went on Larry King to talk about how she was forced to do her reality show because she needed the money.
Not so much, say friends of her ex Charlie Sheen, who tried to block the program because he was afraid she would exploit their children.
“Denise gets $52,000 a month tax-free in child support,” a Sheen insider fumed. “Most people in America can figure out how to live on that, but Denise can’t?”
In addition to the child support, Richards got $60,000 a month (also tax-free) for two years in alimony — adding up to a whopping $1.44 million. Richards also gets a chunk of Sheen’s hot sitcom, “Two and a Half Men,” which “eventually will net her up to $25 million,” the source said.
That is some crazy cash right there for someone who does nothing other than bone her best friend’s husband and complain endlessly about her ex’s sperm.
She is the best of the worst, as I like to call this species.
$52,000 a month? You could feed a herd of gorillas for that kind of money. Are her kids gorillas?
That is a lot of money. Man, I married for all the wrong reasons. Seems as though some women get along just fine without love or friendship or a soul.
If someone can’t survive on $52,000 per MONTH (nearly $10,000 more than what the average American family earn in a YEAR), she doesn’t deserve to survive at all.
No amount of hotness can overcome that level of pure greed.
Dude, I get ~$260 every *other* week as a Starbucks barista.
At what point in becoming a celebrity do you lose all rationale, consideration for others, and intelligent thought?
At about $52,000 a month I guess.
Alimony is NOT tax free. Look it up. She has to claim it and he gets to deduct it.
Child support, though, is tax free.
Actually, alimony is typically taxable. It is *not* taxable to the person paying it, but it *is* taxble to the person receiving it.
What kind of life(style) do Sam and Lola have if their mom shills thems for photo ops and cheesey TV shows?
Can’t child protective services step in and prevent these two little girls from being psychologically damaged for life by the barracuda-cougar of a mother?
In every picture of them with DR that I have seen, the girls a sullen, unhappy, and fearful.
Hey, Charlie: Get a better lawyer and a better custody agreement ASAP!!!
Maybe he’s paying whatever extra it would be so it equals $52,000 “tax free”.
Charlie needs to cut his losses and hire a couple crackheads to take this bitch out.
“Maybe he’s paying whatever extra it would be so it equals $52,000 “tax free”.”
I doubt Chuck is giving her extra for the fun of it. It’s a court-ordered amount, and it is what it is.
Exploiting her children? How? Are people going to be watching this show?
I didn’t think he was doing it out of the kindness of his heart. Maybe it’s ordered that way.
Come on people, $52,000 is reasonable. After all it must cost at least $20,000 per month to keep that dark uni-brow waxed into two separate eye brows.
An over-bloated entourage to neutralize her insecurities, no doubt. I feel sorry for the children.
For that kind of money she can have my sperm by the gallon.
