E! has pink-slipped Denise Richards’ reality show.

Richards, who went to court last year to fight ex-husband Charlie Sheen for rights to have their children appear on the show “It’s Complicated,” turned out to be a less-than-stellar reality star.

A show low-light was her confrontation with an editor for a magazine over how she has been portrayed in the tabloid press.

“The numbers started out pretty good – just over 1.5 million tuned in for the premiere episode,” a source told “The Insider” yesterday. “But the audience has dropped off. ”

Despite the casting rumors, Denise Richards won’t be the latest celebrity to put on her dancing shoes for “Dancing With the Stars”

“No, I am not doing ‘Dancing With the Stars,’” Denise told Access Hollywood on Sunday at a Clothes Off Our Backs charity event.

But the “Denise Richards: It’s Complicated” star will be watching from home.

“I love the show, that is my popcorn night with my girls,” she said. “I love to watch the dancing, the girls love looking at the dresses.”

As for her own reality show, Denise said another season of “It’s Complicated” could be in the cards.

“We’re having great conversations about season two,” she told Access.

Denise Richards Accused Charlie Sheen Of Molesting Their Daughters!

Jul 272008

DENISE Richards went too far when she falsely accused her ex, Charlie Sheen, of molesting their daughters – and now Sheen will move for full custody of the kids by charging that their mother is a liar.

Richards dragged Sheen into a Los Angeles courtroom early last week for a mysterious “emergency” child-custody hearing to screen videos of their girls, Sam and Lola, supposedly acting in strange and disturbing ways. Sheen’s lawyers – who got the “evidence” dismissed – presented their own videos of the girls acting normally at his house.

A source said, “Denise’s accusations were vile. She was basically trying to say Charlie [manipulated] the kids and acted inappropriately with them. It’s disgusting and totally untrue. Charlie is furious . . . Denise has really pushed it too far this time.

“She came after Charlie because the ratings on her E! reality show ['It's Complicated'] have tanked and they were threatening not to renew,” the source said.

“She thinks a court battle would be good for ratings so she wants all overnight visits with the girls ceased, and monitored visits with her nanny. She invited the media circus to the hearing and even wanted reporters in the judge’s chambers – which wasn’t allowed. It’s ridiculous.”

Sheen is said to be so furious, he’s “out to prove Denise’s lack of veracity and sue her in civil court for defamation. Then he’ll sue for child custody.

“Sheen feels Richards has defamed him, especially after she denied sending [current wife] Brooke an e-mail in which she claims to want his sperm for another child. Richards says the e-mail is a fake. Sheen claims he has the e-mail and is getting forensic computer geeks to verify its authenticity.

“Charlie has now been forced to take a stand and do what’s best for the girls,” our insider said. Reps for Richards and Sheen declined comment.

DENISE RICHARDS FORCED TO SELL HOUSE AT A LOSS

Denise Richards Comments Off

Jul 232008

Former BOND girl DENISE RICHARDS has been dealt another blow just two days after losing another custody battle with her ex-husband CHARLIE SHEEN – she’s having to sell her home at a loss.

The actress has placed her Hidden Hills, California estate on the market for $140,000 less than she paid for it a year ago.

The home is offered at $4.25 million.

Richards insists she’s selling up because she wants to live closer to her young daughters’ schools, and that reports she has been forced out by neighbors are untrue.

Those reports suggested people living close to Richards hated the fact that the actress had turned her home into a reality TV location for her series Denise Richards: It’s Complicated.

Other locals complained about the fact Richards owns a vast menagerie of pets and did not have the proper paperwork allowing her to keep so many dogs, cats and pigs.

Richards-Sheen custody battle returns to court

Charlie Sheen, Denise Richards Comments Off

Jul 212008

Denise Richards went to court Monday seeking changes to a custody arrangement with ex-husband Charlie Sheen – but didn’t get everything she wanted.

Richards and her attorney brought a video to Los Angeles Superior Court to try to bolster their case, but a court commissioner did not view it.

Instead, he listened to two experts’ views and ordered changes to the agreement that were characterized by Sheen’s attorney as “nothing meaningful” – and by Richards’ attorney as beneficial for the pair’s two young daughters.

Richards’ attorney, Neal Hersh, acknowledged that Superior Court Commissioner Harvey A. Silberman refused to grant some of the items requested during Monday’s closed-door hearing. Hersh did not specify what changes were sought.

Hersh and Sheen’s attorney, Fern Wender, declined to discuss Silberman’s orders. They also refused to say what type of experts testified, or what was on the video that Richards hoped to introduce.

“The commissioner denied the majority” of Richards’ motion, Wender said afterward.

Sheen did not appear, but Wender said he was pleased with the outcome.

Hersh said the changes that were intact will be positive for the couple’s children, assuming both parents enact them.

Hersh sought changes last week, citing “serious issues involving the children,” but a hearing was not conducted in part because Silberman was on vacation.

Richards, who sat in court on Monday alongside her father throughout much of the morning indicated she was also satisfied with Silberman’s rulings.

The couple completed a bitter divorce in 2006, and have since waged a contentious battle over the custody and care of their daughters, 4-year-old Sam and 3-year-old Lola.

Denise Richards Heads To Court In Surprise Appearance

Jul 172008

The battle between Denise Richards and ex-husband Charlie Sheen rages on.

In a surprise move today, Richards and her divorce attorney, Neal Hersh, went into Los Angeles Superior Court for an ex parte hearing.

While Hersh would not disclose the reason for the hearing, he did tell Access Hollywood that it’s a “serious issue involving the children,” referring to Sheen’s and Richards’ daughters, Sam and Lola.

Because the presiding judge was on vacation today, the hearing didn’t happen, but will take place on Monday.

At that time, Richards will be present again because she deems the issue “very important,” said Hersh.

And though Sheen is not required to be at the hearing, Hersh threw down the gauntlet and said the “Two and a Half Men” star should be there if his “kids are important enough” to him.

Hersh, who remained mum on what the “serious issue” was, explained that his client went into court because of “not one” specific incident, but rather because of a “series” of them, which will be revealed when court is in session next week.

Ex-hubby Charlie Sheen isn’t the only one fighting mad that Denise Richards is living in front of the cameras. Her neighbors are so unhappy about her E! reality show that she’s been told to stop filming.

“This is a gated community, not a zoo,” a source in posh Hidden Hills tells Star.

As a result, the mom of two has put her $4.2 million mansion up for sale.

The former Playmate has also run afoul of the L.A. County Department of Animal Care & Control after featuring her 14 dogs on It’s Complicated. Another insider says that she received a letter warning her that if she’s living with more than three dogs, she has to obtain a kennel license.
“She was none too happy about it,” adds the source.

Denise Richards Opens up to Momlogic.com

Jul 032008

Denise Richards took time out to speak with momlogic.com about everything from her most embarrassing mom moment to mud-slinging with her ex, Charlie Sheen, in public…

Momlogic: What are your thoughts about getting even with your ex in public?
Denise Richards: I kept my mouth shut for 3 years until I started my TV show. I had no desire to speak badly about him in public, but in my situation, it got the point where I had to defend myself. He would release statements while I’m walking on live TV, and I had no choice. It’s gotten to the point that it’s affecting my livelihood. I wasn’t saying things to trash him. I was defending myself from what he was saying. For him to tell people to boycott my show, is really awful. He doesn’t realize it affects our kids. For him to release an email that wasn’t true when I was trying to promote my show, I thought was very low. I was defending what he was doing. I didn’t go out of my way to blast him. I never campaigned to boycott his show. I didn’t go out of my way to bring him down. You can only take so much. I had to stick up for myself.

ML: What’s the one thing about divorce that most surprised you?
DR: How ugly it got. How it just can’t be amicable. I had never anticipated it getting this embarrassing and humiliating. I’ll never go through another one.

ML: Does that mean you’ll never get married again?
DR: I will get married again, but I’ll never go through another divorce. I never expected it to be like this.

ML: How do you handle dating with your daughters?
DR: It’s very hard. I don’t introduce them to anyone unless it’s very serious. They are too young, and I don’t think it’s healthy for them.

ML: What’s your most embarrassing mom moment?
DR: Going through all of this is embarrassing–Taking my girls to pre-school and then going to Mommy and Me knowing people hear things and read things about me. Going through a public, ugly divorce is embarrassing.

ML: Do you think you’re a good mom?
DR: I do. I’m very different than what my ex-husband has put out there. Ultimately the girls suffer for that. I’m with my girls almost 24 hours a day.

ML: Do you think Charlie is a good dad?
DR: I’m not with him when he’s with the girls, so I cannot comment.

ML: If you could go back in time is there anything/any decisions you would have done differently?
DR: Obviously I don’t regret marrying him, because I wouldn’t have my two beautiful daughters. No. I have no regrets. As crazy as it all was, I’ve learned a lot. I regret how things where handled, but there are many times I say, “If only…”

ML: Are there any other rumors that have been written about you that you’d like to clear up?
DR: That I wanted my ex-husbands sperm. That’s absurd. And it was absurd that he had to do what he did while I was on live television. I’m trying to promote a reality show. Let me promote my show. Instead, he had to make it about our divorce.
