Jon Cryer to appear on Ellen Thursday - says he needs the work…

After almost two weeks of non-stop Charlie Sheen, his one-time friend and co-star Jon Cryer plans a visit to the Ellen DeGeneres show on Thursday.

Cryer will appear in a sketch with Ellen where he has been hired as a new receptionist. He takes phone calls about how to get tickets to the show and Ellen’s dance routines.

He tells Ellen, “I need the work”.

Cryer has been out of work since the meltdown of Charlie Sheen caused CBS to shut down the hit sitcom “Two and a Half Men”.

Sheen has lashed out at Cryer calling him a troll, and a traitor.
