Jeremy Piven: "Gayer Than Liberace in 1972"

Jeremy Piven jokes in an upcoming issue of Playboy magazine about why he's still single at 41: "I'd love to have a girlfriend - if I weren't gay. That's right, I'm gay! I'm gayer than Liberace in 1972."

no WAY he's gay...I SO want to believe it, of course; as I've had a crush on him since the first season of "Ellen" before it was even named "ellen" (something like "these friends of mine" or something..)
He looks like he'd be a LOT of fun......in bed. Woof.

...the moment someone bitches about his harmless comment, I know the gay movement has officially jumped the proverbial shark.

Joking or not, if I heard him say that, I'd make a mad dash in his direction and tackle him to the floor. It would not be pretty.

I find him snarky, in a way that makes me hate him. Can't watch him in movies (all one that he's made) or on TV. It's like he's bighting at George Clooney's heals.
He's the dumb ass version of George Clooney (minus the hot looks).

I'd hit it. Totally. Who cares if he's dumb? And you know that he's feeling the burn because he's over forty and single. Just trying to save face and be funny.

Gayer than Clint Eastwood perhaps.
Posted by: anon | Feb 1, 2007 3:04:12 PM
He's HOT, He's smart (who are you guys calling him dumb?) and his wit is pitch perfect! He's the best thing about Entourage and he's usually the best thing in any John Cusak movie (he's in almost all of them).
Posted by: Wayne | Feb 1, 2007 3:05:31 PM
I'd hit it also. He's not ugly, hes kinda handsome but he's nothing compared to my man Thomas Roberts. lol.

Ok Jeremy... PROVE IT to me.
Posted by: mark m | Feb 1, 2007 3:13:02 PM
OK, so why whenever I've come out EVERYONE believed me? :l
Posted by: Todd M. | Feb 1, 2007 3:20:06 PM
I have always thought Piven's a hottie way before he was ever famous from Entourage. While I don't think anyone should look too much into this statement, I have also heard rumblings of him being homosexual for quite some time.

In the counterpart blurb about him and the Playboy article on A Socialite's Life, theer are photos of him snuggling on some babe.
Posted by: Jeff | Feb 1, 2007 3:26:18 PM
Seeeing Marky Mark in that photo reminded me of the time he cruised me at Gold's Gym in Waikiki about 10 years ago.
Just had to share that thought.

The next time someone says "jump the shark" to me I shall "go postal".

I believe it was Wanda Sykes that said "Gay is the new black."
Posted by: JR | Feb 1, 2007 3:44:55 PM
I hope he is... he's very cute.
Posted by: duane | Feb 1, 2007 3:53:52 PM
Jordy, are you saying marky Mark cruised you(a male I assume?)
Posted by: Nikko | Feb 1, 2007 4:17:25 PM
I've had a crush on him forevs, and just one more recent reason: his way of reprimanding boring interviewers, ie why does someone need a reason to be single?
Remember his Billy Bush bash?

Being that close to Marky Mark would make most men gay. Sorry, Pivert, I'm looking at the guy next to you. ¡SCHWING!

Jeremy Piven bothers me. He seems like an intensely arrogant former frat boy. Blech!
Mark Wahlberg, on the other hand...
Posted by: peterparker | Feb 1, 2007 5:19:42 PM
I believe that's called an "attention whore"..
But then again he made that declaration in Playboy, so I sorta have to approve hehe..(and it goes without saying it's the most old creepy Hugh has ever done for gay rights.)

Hey, Ben, I agree with you about Thomas Roberts. Where the hell has he been, anyways??? I used to see him on at 6 p.m. for an hour a few weeks ago then they kept putting that bitch Kathleen Kennedy on. I just hope they havent fired him. Damn you, CNN Headline!
Posted by: FanGirlHater | Feb 1, 2007 5:35:42 PM
I met Marky, too. He's small and short... he looks like a little boy.
