Robert Downey Jr. Has Some Advice for Charlie Sheen (VIDEO)
Robert Downey Jr. is a former Hollywood "bad boy." The actor was known for his hard-partying ways, but now, Downey is clean and sober -- and he stays out of trouble. But there's always someone ready to fill the "bad boy" vacuum. Recently, that person seems to be Charlie Sheen. This Friday, the cops came to Sheen's hotel room, after the actor allegedly went on a drunken coke-fueled rampage. Sheen also allegedly had a naked hooker locked in his room's closet. This is a big scandal for the 'Two and Half Men' star. So on 'Late Show' (weeknights, 11:35PM ET on CBS), David Letterman turned to his expert on drugs, booze and scandals -- Mr. Downey himself.
Apparently, Downey and Sheen went to the same high school, but Robert said they "didn't really hang out." Though he added this: "It sounds like we could have really partied."
Dave asked if his guest had any advice for Mr. Sheen. The actor kept his advice short and sweet. "Don't get arrested!" he said. Letterman wasn't satisfied by this. He kept humorously hammering home the idea that Robert was the perfect guy to talk to Charlie, not so subtly referring to Downey's troubled past.
Robert smirked tolerantly at Dave's antics, but no longer seemed tempted by his former lifestyle. He did admit it would be "fun" to get into some zany antics with Sheen in a hotel room. But then he swiftly changed his mind: "But not fun. ... Not fun."
