Should we even be reporting news on Jeremy Piven?  He's a parody of all things cheesy about Hollywood. If I read a story about him showing up on Valentine's Day at a packed chic restaurant without a reservation, demanding a table, and when turned down, barking at the hostess "Don't you know who I am?" and then berating and belittling her for working at restaurant I wouldn't even be surprised!

What?  He did that?  Well, then that only leaves one thing left for him to do, like say bullying his way into a high end foodie establishment with a party of 12, no reservation and then leaving only a copy of season one's "Entourage" as a tip. Oh, check that off too?  Sweet mother of pearl!

The NTP reports:

He was asked never to return to Matsuhisa in Aspen by a manager. He came in with a large group of 12 or more without reservations and asked for a table. It was a very busy night, but a table, although cramped, was provided. On his way out, he made a nasty comment to the manager: 'Thanks for nothing.' He left a DVD of the first year of 'Entourage' to one of the waiters. [An employee] ran up the stairs and hurled it at him as he was leaving."

I'm not trying to judge here, but could Piven be more of a total douchebag?  I'm no moviestar, but hells if I ain't about ten times as classy as this guy.  When I leave a tip, it's something the waitress will be talking about to her grandkids. I can hear her now,  "One time this lady came in with her two screaming brats.  They were throwing food and one of them punched an old man in the face and the other one tripped me and I dumped hot soup on a cripple, but they left me a 20% tip.  Can you believe it?  That lady changed my life?"

Yeah, that's how we roll in Ohio.  Respeck!
