Piven to Billy -- You're "Bush" League

Click to return to TMZ.comSometimes Billy Bush just doesn't know when to quit -- and last night on the Emmy red carpet, Jeremy Piven lashed out at him for it. Last night, during the red-carpet prelude to the Emmys, "Access Hollywood's" Bush corralled "Entourage's" Piven, and began a line of questioning concerning celebrity babies. Piven had just flown in from Arizona, where he was shooting a movie with Jennifer Garner, and so Bush asked him about Garner's baby Violet.

Bush then asked Piven if, given that Piven lives in Malibu, whether he had laid eyes on Brangelina's baby Shiloh. Piven said he hadn't, explaining that he had "116 other things to do...I don't go hunting for celebrity babies, thank you, Billy."

"You need another job. You have potential as a human being..."



Undeterred, or clearly not getting the message, Bush then asked if he'd seen Suri Cruise. Piven finally lost his patience. "You need another job. You have potential as a human being," said Piven, not at all hiding his irritation. "This may not be right for you. Seriously -- can you focus on other things?"

At least Bush got one thing right. He predicted -- correctly -- that Jeremy Piven would get his statuette, and Piven did, for his role as Ari Gold.

46. Piven looks like a camel, a camel in need of a shave. This guy has played the same character in every role I've ever seen him play. Ten years from now, no one will even remember who he was except for this freaking Bush guy so maybe the two of them should get married and have couple of celeb butt babies of their own. No one with so little talent should be lashing out at someone else, even if that someone else has the same lack of talent. Hey, Piven, the next time you undertake those one hundred and sixteen other things, try making a bath and a shave a couple of them. Camel!!!

47. Billy Bush is still just a moron Bush. This Bush Chimp got a microphone and his lunch handed to him. What idiotic questions! I love Jeremy Piven more now!!!

48. Butch, you clearly know nothing about acting talent. Piven has it in abundance; anyone who has studied acting (or who possesses a modicum of intelligence, for that matter) can see that.

Go back to the playground, kid. Come back when you're an adult - in two decades.
