Jeremy Piven's next role? Guy getting sued
Jeremy Piven is getting his ass sued by the producers of "Speed-the-Plow," according to the AP:
They have filed a grievance with Actors' Equity Association, the stage actors' union, against Jeremy Piven for abruptly leaving the Broadway revival last month.
Piven quit the David Mamet comedy less than two months after it opened to favorable reviews at the Ethel Barrymore Theatre. The actor's doctor said Piven was unable perform because of high levels of mercury in his system, possibly caused by eating large amounts of raw fish.
I guess they didn't believe his performance for Diane Sawyer. Or they're just doing it for the halibut. Ha cha cha cha! I'm drowning myself in the tub now.

My favorite part was when he dated Melrose from America's Next Top Model

#5: If you don't at least know who Jeremy Piven is by now, you're a fucking moron. Judging by your name making fun of our next (and soon to be best) president, I'd say that's pretty accurate.

#8 You, Jeremy Piven and Bacrock Obama should have a threesome since you are so in love with them. Obama can put one up your ass while Piven puts it in your mouth

I don't care. I love him anyways. He rocks as Ari Gold and that should be enough
11. Brad Pitt - January 17, 2009 1:54 PM
Haha, that's why I don't eat fish.

Jeremy Piven's wig should get pancreatic cancer.

God, he just buries himself deeper every time he opens his mouth. I recommend a 6-month trip to Bhutan and it'll all blow over. Hey dumb@ss, shut UP already about it!

Fuck you all, Piven rules.
"...for the halibut." -- that line is GOLD, as is Piven!

@14; Yeah he was pretty much slick bald when he guested on Seinfeld, so it's especially embarrassing.

F you #8 Buddy Love. Go watch your gay Eddie Murphy movies and wack off to the iniggaration. How the fuck does being black make him the best president? You stupid ass. like anyone else, he actually has to DO something to become great, not just be something. But that is why you voted for him. You thought government would make you better and not your own actions. Get in line for your check he promised you.

Timez ta getz paid. Wez wantz ourz rerationziz.
Spend baby spend. Spend trillions to prosperity.
Heard Harry Reid has his shovel in Nevada ready for the ceremony to launch the Mafia Museum, brought to you by Uncle Sam.
It's a stimulus to the economy I tell ya. Nevada needs it. And so it goes.
Change

Why did the comments in this story change from Piven and his coke habit to the Zero-bama?
I like Piven as Ari Gold but I hear he can snort coke so fast it brings a tear to Lindsay Lohan's eye and I mean that literally as she starts crying when all the "blow"(our new president's pet term for cocaine) disappears.
Thanks

I don't understand how Piven can be sick when lots of asians eat fish everyday. Maybe he just had some bad fish, but come on.

@19
Speaking of "blow", I would like to "blow" every one of the posters on this thread. Twice. (If you're female, please disregard. thx.)
also, any spammers or that sexy ass george hu-- you get a rusty trombone, todders-style. (as long as you check out this HI-lareeous vid of that dude at Wal-Mart that got trampled to death...)
22. amanda - January 17, 2009 5:45 PM
@hank
it really is a terrible wig, he'd look better bald! the only actor i can think of that can pull of a wig is bert reynolds....
23. todders is retarded - January 17, 2009 9:32 PM
.....i hate you todders
24. gerard Vandenberg - January 18, 2009 12:05 AM
I'm sure he prefers a DILDO IN HIS ASS instead, folks?
25. debutante - January 18, 2009 12:00 PM
LEAVE JEREMY PIVEN ALONE !! He totally makes the show Entourage and deserves every award he gets. He probably ran himself down doing live shows every day plus his diet of fish only for five years can't be the healthiest thing in the world !
26. JEREMY PIVEN LOVES THE COCK - January 18, 2009 12:14 PM
He's a douchebag who yearns to star in gay porn. Enough of that superdouche already!
27. kerry zaputz - January 18, 2009 5:19 PM
Anyone else notice he's wearing a curly little hairpiece on top?
28. justifiable - January 18, 2009 5:51 PM
#27 Um...yeah, 4 other posters who commented - and of course everyone else who bothered to read the thread.
29. sapphire eyes - January 19, 2009 1:29 AM
40 years old and single. And a dick. His Jewish mamma must be so proud. But i love his character in Entourage, but I get the feeling that his acting isn't too far from the real Piven cretin.
