Charlie Sheen<\/a> “felt awful” hanging around with the Brat Pack before getting famous himself.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Charlie Sheen was envious of the Brat Pack<\/p>\n

The 60-year-old actor has confessed that he felt out of place when he spent time with his older brother Emilio Estevez<\/a> and other young Hollywood actors during the 1980s before achieving stardom in his own right.<\/p>\n

Charlie told the Conan O’Brien Needs a Friend podcast: “It felt awful. I felt like I was just taking up the rear. I felt like a valet on certain nights.”<\/p>\n

The Two and a Half Men star reflected on how, even when he “was in the mix” during nights out with the likes of Judd Nelson, Rob Lowe<\/a> and Andrew McCarthy, he still didn’t get the same amount of attention.<\/p>\n

Sheen said: “It felt the worst when (they got) all the attention from the pretty girls, and they would all go home with them, and I would just go home.<\/p>\n

\n“I think there’s a line in (my new) book that my inner bear had been poked and it lit a fire, and you couldn’t see it from the f****** moon.”<\/p>\n

\nCharlie confessed that he pursued an acting career himself so he could enjoy the same “perks” that the Brat Pack did.<\/p>\n

\nThe Platoon star \u2013 who has recently released his memoir The Book of Sheen \u2013 said: “I didn’t give a s*** about acting.<\/p>\n

\n“I wasn’t looking at that, just like, if I can just get a job that everybody lines up to go see, then that’s how my nights will end. I mean, seriously, that kind of was the inspiration.”<\/p>\n

\nSheen writes in his book that he felt as though he was a “stray dog” when out and about in Los Angeles with the Brat Pack.<\/p>\n

\nHe recalled: “As soon as we’d exit the limo, I’d be relegated by their screaming fans to the role of stray dog, bringing up the rear for their crowd-parting, bar-hopping rambles.<\/p>\n

\n“The night always began at the Hard Rock Cafe, then sashayed its way across the landscape of the gotta-be-seen popular hot spots.<\/p>\n

\n“I felt so small and left out as I watched the Emilio-steered throng, redefining what a copious and decadent bask in the limelight could look like.”<\/p>\n
