LOS ANGELES, Calif. -- Following a bizarre week of outrageous radio rants to various talk show hosts and the cancellation of the remainder of the current season of his hit CBS show, "Two and a Half Men," Charlie Sheen has announced plans to pen a "tell-all" book, according to TMZ.
The embattled actor reportedly told TMZ on Saturday that he plans to expose details about "life on the ['...Men'] set," as well as the events that led to his recent outbursts.

Charlie is reportedly expecting at least $10 million for the publishing rights - and a bidding war - for his memoir, which he tentatively intends to title, "When the Laughter Stopped," according to the site.
As previously reported on AccessHollywood.com, on Thursday evening, CBS announced they were pulling the plug on the remainder of the current season of "Two and a Half Men" following a shocking radio rant by the actor that afternoon, in which he took aim at show creator Chuck Lorre and told radio host Alex Jones, "I was told if I went on the attack, they would cancel the show and all that and so I'm just sort of seeing if they're telling the truth or not," referring to his CBS bosses.

While CBS' decision to halt production has left Charlie and his co-stars temporarily out of work, the decision has also impacted the show's crew.
A source close to "Two and a Half Men" told Access on Friday that the show's crew will not be completely out of a job now that their show has been canceled for the rest of the season - rather, they will continue to work on Chuck Lorre's other Warner Bros./CBS sitcom, "The Big Bang Theory."
The beleaguered crew will, however, suffer a large pay cut of about 15 percent, in going from two shows to one, according to the source.

A rep for Warner Bros., which produces the hit sitcom, had no comment regarding Charlie's salary demands nor the alleged pay cut for the crew when contacted by Access on Friday.
