The former ‘Two and a Half Men’ star had more than two cents to lend the Bajan beauty about an encounter at a restaurant last night.  According to Sheen, he attempted to introduce Ri to his fiancee, who is a long-time fan of the singer.  But, after the ‘Disturbia’ diva declined the invitation, Charlie flew into a fiery  Twitter rant that saw him label the Grammy winner a “liar,” “idiot”, and wearer of “bad wigs”.
