Cusack no longer part of Piven's entourage?

by Bob Sassone, posted Jan 9th 2007 7:40PM

PivenI thought that this would be the Hollywood relationship that would last.

You can have your TomKats, your Brangelinas, your Bennifers, your Vaughnistons. The couple that I thought would be together forever was Pivack. Wait, that sounds like a character from Star Trek. How about Cuven? God, that sounds like a cholesterol medication.

I'm talking about the longtime friendship between John Cusack and Entourage star Jeremy Piven. In a new interview in Best Life magazine, Piven hints that the friendship is over, and hints even harder that it's because Cusack was jealous of Piven's success. Or could it be because Piven changed after his success? Who knows.

This is sad. These two have been friends since they were kids and starred in many movies together, including Grosse Point Blank, One Crazy Summer, Runaway Jury, The Grifters, and Say Anything.

Maybe these two just need to hug it out? (And yes, I'm sure that line will be used by every single person who writes about this story.)

I don't care what anyone says. Friends always have ups and downs and it's not always clear why. Both of these men have talent and choose their own paths. It would be nice if others would stop second guessing and judging them and simply let them be.

I have met them both. John is a fairly nice guy, Pivin is a less hyper version of the guy he plays on Entorage. He is very shallow and annoying. He is not acting on that show.

I've actually heard that Cusask is pretty self important according to the food service industry. It really disappointed me when I heard that.

John Cusack? Oh yeah, he's Joan Cusack's brother.

Personally from watching interviews over the years, my thought is Piven is too full of himself since he won his Emmy. Cusack has always maintained this cool, I'm not part of Hollywood attitude. Maybe Piven has gone Hollywood and Cusack doesn't want to be part of it. I have a feeling it's something on each side and it's just they don't know how to deal with the changes in their lives. Sadly Piven puts it in the press when Cusack probably never would.

Maybe it's that Piven either is more like his Entourage character than we previously knew (clever, amusing a-hole), or else he is acting more like that character because that's what people expect from him, because it's funny.

Both great actors, but I think Cusack still has more talent than Piven, even though I'm a big fan of Entourage.

And Piven seems to be a little bit full of himself nowadays... Cusack however appears to be a better person and keeps his private life quite well away from the public eye.
