Bad Boy

Jeremy Piven is a Broadway dropout. The Entourage star has been starring in Speed The Plow on the Great White Way for the past few months, but he announced yesterday that he will be leaving the show immediately due to health concerns. Jeremy has called in sick for a few shows and finally called it quits for good, citing doctor’s orders. But director David Mamet seems to be stunned by the actor’s abrupt departure. I talked to Jeremy on the phone and he told me that he discovered that he has a very high level of mercury, David quipped to Variety. So my understanding is that he is leaving show business to pursue a career as a thermometer. Meow!

Wandering Eye

Kate Walsh has been bad. The Private Practice star’s hubby of just over a year, Alex Young, filed for divorce, and now sources are saying its because Kate had the hots for a co-star. Kate was rumored to be getting hot and heavy with David Sutcliffe, her costar in the medical drama, and was said to be cozying up to him, even after the director yelled “Cut!” Kate really likes David, and knowing that’s didn’t help Alex’s fragile ego, the source says. Kate and David had a real connection playing lovers on the show, and she didn’t seem to have that with her own husband. Maybe because they got married after dating for, like, three weeks??
