Jeremy Piven's Been Fish-Free For 10 Months But Is Still Fishy
Jeremy Piven says that he has been fish-free for the past 10 months.
And no, we ain't talking about that kinda tuna. (Are you kidding? The Pivert can't keep his hands off a piece of "filet-o-fish" for more than 5 minutes.)
Still embroiled in a battle with the Actors Equity, who have been - and rightly so - suspicious of Pivert's "mercury poisoning," the actor attempts to garner sympathy by adding, "What basically happens is when you work your whole life without stopping like I've done, you end up in the hospital. Basically, I had a cardiologist say your body is trying to catch up and it can't. I had a resting heart rate of 47, something called arrhythmia, along with all the mercury poisoning."
And then he tries to top it off with a little bit of environmentalism: "By the way, for the record, it's the not the fish's fault. It's a man-made problem. It's all the mercury being dumped. Women shouldn't eat tuna, especially when you're pregnant."
The whole thing sounds fishy to us…and no, it's not his beard.

Goodbye, Pizza Hut!!!!
A Remake With Potential
Not even a little lox on your bagel, Jeremy?
U C I C food
and I eat food,
I even eat
C food.
Come on. This wasn't written by Perez. Where's the infamous exclamation point that follows every post?
who cares about him. he's clearly a douche. and now he's trying to throw in some cardiologist shit to try to blur the mercury poisoning lie. he's so dumb and gross. it's so unfair that people like him get to be rich and famous… he gets to walk around feeling like he's better than everyone b/c he has more money, when he's just a downright douchebag.
I eat tunafish sandwiches every week. No problems so far. Maybe you just want to sleep with JEREMY, EH, PEREZ ? YES (he is a cutie).
Your word bubbles are lame. Not funny at all.
He be nibbliing on BoBo Belushi's dingleberries.
FYI— i work at a restaurant in los angeles, and i know he's had fish in the last 4 months.
what a shitty liar.
Don't you think Taylor Momsen and Logan Lerman looks good together?
OD.. is right…Perez is in Toronto promoting a show…this was done by one of his workers…90% of these aren't done by Perez…he doesn't have time…Perez Hilton is now an entity not a person.
Well… that is a heavy load of POO!!!
This douche doesn't mind insulting the intelligence of his fans I guess. Gimme a break already…too much tuna? What a load of bullshit. Admit you're lazy, Jeremy, and move on.
Either I have a serious case of the deja-vu, or this article has been posted here already.
To get mercury poisoning from fish you probably need to eat one ton of fish in on day.
It's ridiculous. The rest of Hollywood is probably laughing behind his back.
Yeah, I can see what a delicate canary he is.
If his medical team can substantiate, he'll be off the legal hook for the hooky.
Perez is a pig..on all levels
He is HOT!! xo
Check the labels of the fish and know how they're grown and packaged. Problem solved.
He is a lying abuser of women. I seriously cannot wait until his 15 minutes are up.
he may be full of shit, but he's HOT playing ARI…nice pecs also
Piven=Pivert
As big a douche as this guy is, he is right. I'm four months pregnant and my doc has absolutely FORBIDDEN me to go anywhere near tuna. Which is too bad, cuz it's delicious. I also have an uncle who got mercury poisoning from eating saltwater fish more than three times a week. Scary facts!
I still think he got sick from all the chemicals in his bad fake hairpiece getting into his bolodstream…Nicholas Cage has the same affliction.
a heart rate of 47 would be very healthy for a man his age. that is not the definition of arrhythmia. look it up!
Well, this is a valid issue but it happens over YEARS…and you are a lot sicker. I know someone who was mis-diagonosed with cancer and it was mercury poisoning…that is how sick you are.
