When Charlie Sheen was diagnosed with HIV in 2011, he held his secret close, even succumbing to what he describes as “blackmail” in order to hide the truth from a prying public. Now, seven months after revealing his diagnosis to the world, he’s working to educate others.
“I’ve usually made lemonade out of lemons,” Sheen explains of his new partnership with condom company LELO HEX. “So this is another example of that.”
Sheen will serve as a brand ambassador, discussing the importance of using protection. “I don’t think it’s ever a bad time to be an advocate for something like this,” he says.”
