NOW The Pivert Develops A Sense of Humor!
Filed under: Jeremy Piven > David Letterman
Sure, now that he has won his case, Jeremy Piven is all about the funny when it comes to MercuryGate.
Pivert was on the Late Show last night and he decided to be uncharacteristically candid about his fishy ordeal. He joked with David Letterman that he thinks mercury poisoning "sounds like a rich man's disease…sounds like something you might get from the leather seats in your Lamborghini, like a rash, like a rash that hurts."
Funny, we kind of think of you that way. Like a painful rash, that won't go away!
Along with the mercury poisoning, Jeremy explains that he was afflicted with Epstein-Barr (more commonly known as mono), which further worsened his condition. But like we said, the tool has found his funny bone, as when Dave asked him how he got both mercury poisoning and mono, he replied:
"Just from being a coward."
Ha! Fact!
At least he'll admit it now.

Next fatboy!!!!!!!!!
…the name Jeremy means 'God will raise up; God will set free'. God sure set him free from his contract, din't she!
Ebstein-Barr is not "more commonly known as mono"….I have it rightnow and it is not the same. It has similar symptoms, but a different blood test is needed to detect it. I'm sure he can finally be funny about it now that the legal part is over.
Piven's interview on Letterman sounded so disingenuous and just not quite the truth. I know he won his lawsuit, but something still smells fishy, no pun intended.
Epstein Barr is NOT mono.
I swear, you just get stupider and stupider every day.
My Perezcious once got nearly a black eye "just from being a coward".
Jeremy Piven is hilarious, and only a fat loser like Perez would hate on him because Piven is everything that Perez wishes he was….everything but a girl that is!
Fuck you are stupid Hilton! At least do some research. If you had said Epstein-Barr virus can cause mono you would have been correct. Try using google fat boy, it takes two seconds and will make even you look like you have a brain!
can we also talk about how Potato Head looked SO PRETTY last night and how she was def funny and super sweet too! She gets points in my book for last night.
I just love him in "Entourage".
Stop the h8ing, Perez.
If you did not have a gossip empire, then I would tell you to go eat peeps. So kan I be in you?
Yea… Epstein-Barr isn't mono
Makes you wonder how many other things perez just makes up
funny perez I think of you as a pig vomit stench that wont go away.
I love jeremy since he was in the movie LUCAS
AT LEAST NOW THIS F*CKTARD'S FAME RUN IS OVER!!
.
I WATCHED LETTERMAN LAST NIGHT. THIS GUY IS AN IDIOT. HE IS A CLASSIC CHEESEBAG LOSER THAT FINALLY (AT 40SOMETHING) GETS A SMALL TASTE OF TEMPORARY FAME AND BECOMES THE GUY WHO BANGS MULTIPLE UNDERAGED COCKTAIL WAITRESSES WHO ARE ONLY INTERESTED IN HIM CUZ HE CAN BUY BEER.
.
IS HE STUPID OR A LIAR TO SAY THAT EPSTEIN BARR IS MONO… CUZ ITS NOT!!
.
LETTERMAN ALSO RESPONDED TO PIVERT'S 'RICH MAN'S DISEASE' COMMENT BY SAYING, 'WE JUST ALL THOUGHT YOU WERE PARTYING TOO MUCH.' HAHAHAHAH
.
ONE MORE FAVORITE TIDBIT FROM LAST NIGHT… HIS STATEMENT THAT 'HE IS FROM A THEATRE FAMILY AND HAS SPENT HIS ENTIRE LIFE IN THE THEATRE.' THIS STATEMENT WAS JUST A FEW SECONDS AFTER HE SAID THAT THIS HAD BEEN HIS 'BROADWAY DEBUT'… AGAIN IN HIS 40'S.
.
YES I KNOW WE HAVE 'OFF BROADWAY' AND 'OFF-OFF BROADWAY' AND 'NEW JERSEY'. LET US ALSO NOT FORGET COMMUNITY THEATRE IN CLEVELAND.
1> Mono and Epstein Bar are NOT the same thing 2> I guess humor is lost on you….he wasn't admitting to anything, he was making fun of idiots like you for the things you said about him
Epstein Barr is not mono, fat ass. It often leads to mono, but it is a separate disease.
ok, so i only check this site for a bit off gossip from la-la land and usually i would never bother leaving a comment….but seriously, perez are u just lacking a funny bone or what?!! i suppose u prob think 'Funny People' or 'Ugly Betty' are hilarious!! cos seriously anyone who cant see how funny piven is is crazy. he is cool out, espec. on entourage!! give him a break, hes just a funny dude not taking himself too seriously…maybe you should try that out
Are you serious? Jeremy Piven is hilarious! How can you even call him a tool?!
Not cool Perez. Entourage wouldn't be half as good without Piven's hilarity.
isn't he over 35? As an almost graduate of nursing your immunity is built up by the age of 35. Therefore him getting mono would be 1 in million chances. Unless he's older than he says. I think he's a liar.
Hate him!
okay i usually agree with you, but i love this guy. Ari Gold is one of the best characters on television as of now so give him some credit.
I saw this enterview and he seemed really strange and contradicted himself, I guess he was trying to be funny but it didn't work.
oh perez, when will u learn…. jeremy should punch u in the other eye that will i am missed! then you could make another sappy crying blah blah movie and fame whore ur self out! go jeremy… u rock…. ps- perez u should get mecury poisoning
Piven is an arrogant jackass. I'll never watch anything that he's in or any show that he's on. I'd rather clean the toilet than be subjected to that blithering fool! One day he'll fuck with the wrong person and get the shit kicked out of him. I'll laugh my ass off when that happens!!
LOVE him on entourage
