Exclusive: Jeremy Piven

Mrs. Ari sides with Lloyd when he lectures Ari that he can't abandon his clients or the benefits of being his own boss. Ari is about to pass on the offer when he learns from Dana that Amanda Daniels is next in line. He goes to Amanda to bury the hatchet (and make sure she'll hire his clients) but Amanda won't make peace. When Drama tries to take the blame for spreading false rumors, Jamie-Lynn reveals it was true and she would have gone further if Turtle had kept his mouth shut. At the Gold house, Ari's spotlighting a few flaws doesn't go over so well. Ari bribes the young actor with a future in film, but when Javier shies away from kissing Mrs. Ari, she seizes him in a lip-lock.
Even other comedy fans are not taking well to his attempts to sweep the allegations under the rug with the success of his tour. Jeremy Piven has had a successful career as a producer, comedian, and actor. He has won many awards for his acting including a Golden Globe Award and three separate and consecutive Emmy Awards. He is also making a name for himself as a comedian and has been on the road for weeks trying to bring laughs to his fans. He has been making a new path for himself since his role on Entourage. As the main character’s agent, Ari Gold’s larger-than-life personality and witty one-liners keep the audience hooked on the series.

Jeremy Piven once appeared on a Seinfeld episode where he auditioned for the role of "George" . Jason Alexander, who played George, is about 5'5" and Piven looks comparably short. And, of course, like George, Piven was balding in the episode, so unless Piven specifically shaved his head  for the role, he also probably now wears a toupee. American actor best known for playing Ari Gold on TV series Entourage.
His sister is director Shira Piven, whom he has described as one of his first acting teachers; his brother-in-law is director Adam McKay. On August 1, 2019, Piven appeared on a KTVU morning news segment to promote a standup comedy show he was performing in the next night in San Francisco. Piven's foray into stand-up was inspired by the excitement he felt while preparing for a charity show in Los Angeles co-hosted by Russell Peters. The Canadian comedy superstar was so impressed by the determination and intelligence that Piven showed in developing his material, Peters encouraged him to create an act that really demonstrated what he can do. Following his successful run of dates in clubs and theaters in the U.S. and Canada in along with recent shows in Jerusalem and Tel Aviv Piven returns for a new run of stand-up shows. Jeremy has been working in Hollywood for nearly 4 decades and he has the stories to prove it.

‘Ari Gold’ in ‘Entourage,’ which aired from 2004 until 2011, is one of his best parts to date. The series was a great sensation in the United States, and his performance as ‘Gold’ earned him multiple Emmy nominations and awards. "I just want to know, we will figure out a hashtag," he added. (Might I suggest #GoForAriGold, Mr. Piven?) Piven also mentioned that if a spinoff happened, he'd bring along Lloyd, Ari's assistant/protege, played by Rex Lee. The episode "Secrets & Ellen" is part of a crossover with Grace Under Fire, Coach, and The Drew Carey Show set in Las Vegas.
The speculation about whether Jeremy Piven had done something to his hair has been ongoing for years. There is no denying that his hairline has changed significantly over the years. However, he has never publicly addressed the rumors about his hair.
Vulture points out that Bellamar is not credited on having worked on either Entourage the series or the 2015 film adaptation. • He also starred in and produced the short-lived ABC drama series Cupid, and voiced an elongated man in three episodes of Justice League Unlimited. Beginning in 2004, Piven had great success as fast-talking and acerbic Hollywood agent Ali Gold on the HBO series Entourage. What’s interesting, though, is that in the U.K., Mr. Selfridge is the No. 1 show in its timeslot.

Eight women in total have now accused Piven of sexual misconduct. Chelating agents make metals more water-soluble so they can be excreted by the kidneys. That works fairly well for inorganic salt forms of mercury poisoning but not so much for neurologic forms from the elemental. Unfortunately in mercury, symptoms can look like many disease states. When levels are building up, there could be a variety of symptoms that a physician may interpret as another illness. Only when the physician can't find a real cause or gets a toxicologist involved will they do blood tests and say, "Yes, this is probably due to mercury exposure."
Things got more revealing when Piven is asked if he was still close with the Entourage crew. "Well, you know, we were in two separate worlds . I represented the professional world and they represented the Peter Pan syndrome." For the record, that wasn't a compliment. After co-founder and head of Pixar John Lasseter was forced to resign from Disney because of allegations of misconduct, he was hired to run Skydance Animation and is now  making films for AppleTV+. Then, in January 2018, BuzzFeed News published another story featuring stories from three more women who shared alleged incidents of sexual misconduct and inappropriate behavior by Piven.

The deal lasts for about five minutes, until Yair catches wind of it and offers $75 million directly to Nicky. Unable to argue with cash like that, Vince and company are all smiles as they follow the red carpet into their premiere. When Drama hears Jacqueline scream from the crowd, he scoops her up and carries her off to the beach to consummate their relationship on the sand. Vince doesn't get so lucky with the screening of 'Medellin.' The crowd's boos at the end of the film give way to a diatribe by Walsh, and Yair immediately backs out of the deal. With nowhere left to turn, Ari accepts a backhanded offer of one dollar from Harvey Weingard, banking on the studio head's financial savvy to dig them out of the hole.
The mood shifts when Bobby Flay comes out to confront them, and Dana, realizing Ari had ulterior motives, storms out. Vince tells Eric he needs advice, not a lecture—he had a few puffs of pot the other day. E, Scott  and Drama go to Dice's home to break the news to him.

Things slowed down, even though the Entourage movie happened. Of course, a day after we speak there would be a scandal to report on. It’s a scandal that he, again, denies took place, and it’s one that will nonetheless make his comments about Entourage particularly interesting to dissect. But more than that duality, it was the character’s emotional struggle that attracted him.
Outside of acting, he was the host of ABC's 2020 docuseries, Emergency Call. Wahlberg based Entourage on experiences that he and his friends had back when he was a rising star in Hollywood. Piven's character was based on Wahlberg's real-life agent, Ari Emanuel, who is known as a controversial Jeremy Piven figure in the entertainment industry. Even still, longtime Entourage fans are clearly still taken with Ari Gold. But it’s clear that they both love each other, and their communication problems are rooted in not being able to fully express the grief they have over the death of Claire.
