Charlie Sheen has been hit with fresh allegations following his HIV revelation
US reports suggest that the 50-year-old actor – who publicly revealed that he was HIV positive earlier this month – recorded a drug-fuelled sex tape with another man.
Charlie is allegedly worried that the video could be made public, and has paid out £6.6million in a desperate attempt to keep up to eight sex tapes private, it has been claimed.
Gossip website Radar Online claims to have obtained the footage, which apparently depicts the former Two And A Half Men star "smoking a crack cocaine pipe and performing fellatio on a male lover", but the media outlet has not published the content.
A source is believed to have said that the films were recorded in Nevada back in 2011 – the same year that Charlie was diagnosed with the sexually-transmitted virus.

Speaking of the sex tapes, a source said: "It makes you wonder what went through Charlie’s mind to let himself be filmed. He is desperate to keep the videos off the internet but they have already been leaked."
The news comes a week after Charlie admitted he'd paid up to £6million to numerous people, in a bid to stop them revealing his HIV status.
Charlie mentioned no names, but spoke about those who blackmailed him, saying: "I trusted them, they were deep in my inner circle, I thought they could be helpful, but my trust turned to their treason. We're talking about shakedowns."
When asked how many people he had paid to keep quiet, Charlie explained: "I don't want to guess wrong, but it's enough to bring it into the millions.

"I'm not going to be the poster man for this, but I will not shun away from responsibilities," he added, as his doctor insisted that Charlie "does not have AIDS".
During his dramatic revelation on the Today Show, the Hollywood star said it was "impossible" that he had transmitted the HIV virus to anybody else, but he admitted to having unprotected sex since his diagnosis.
Express.co.uk has contacted Charlie's representatives for comment.
