According to TMZ, actor Jeremy Piven (Entourage) has missed several recent performances of the Broadway revival of Speed-the-Plow due to an unspecified illness. No one knows what happened! Why, just last Saturday the Grosse Pointe Blank star was angrily stalling the show as audience members straggled in late! Now he'll be missing tonight's performance, too; his rep tells TMZ, "Jeremy has not been feeling well and the doctors have advised him that he should end his run in Speed-the-Plow immediately." But anyone with tickets shouldn't be too upset; the star of this revival is really Raúl Esparza, and the show will go on just fine with him and Elisabeth Moss. The show's publicist confirmed the illness but had no further details, adding only that (for now) the production is still scheduled to run through February 22nd.





he is partying too much! his pictures show up all over facebook at various venues. he needs to get married and settle down AND stop modelizing and hanging out with LOSERS. Go back to LA kid, you can't handle new york.
who cares
but yeah he's fallen in with the "plow the speed" set it seems, nyuknyuknyuk
Was Piven always such a prima donna or did it happen after he lost the weight and got the hairpiece? Give me the Jeremy from Grosse Pointe Blank back.
10 YEARS!
Cocaine's a hell of a drug...
"Jeremy Piven's Doctors Urge Him to Quit Speed" might be more appropriate.
Anyway, while Esparza might steal the show, you know that half of the audience bought tickets to see the fast talking Ari Gold on stage.
He may have the dreaded 'can't remember his lines' disease. It's not contagious though.
As long as it doesn't affect Entourage...
He should end his run because he sucks !
Raúl Esparza is worth seeing in any show - he's great!
Variety is reporting he has mercury poisoning. Seriously.
who? why?
whocares? againwhy?
"I talked to Jeremy on the phone and he told me that he discovered that he had a very high level of mercury," the prolific playwright told Daily Variety. "So my understanding is that he is leaving show business to pursue a career as a thermometer."
He wears a hair-piece?
