Star Catcher
Jeremy Piven -- Gas Guzzling Hypocrite?

Posted Jan 26th 2007 11:11AM by TMZ Staff

Jeremy Piven talks a good game, but he needs to practice what he preaches.

We spotted the "Entourage" star shopping in Beverly Hills, where he was quick to compliment a bike-riding photog for saving "gas" and "fossil fuels." Moments later, Piven got into his silver SUV (which gets around 14 MPG).

We also ran into our two favorite sisters, Paris and Nicky, Jack Osbourne, comedian Andy Dick, "Hills" hottie Lauren Conrad, season one "American Idol" runner-up Justin Guarini, MTV's "Real World" veteran Mike "The Miz" Mizanin, Shauna Sand, and TMZ's very own parade balloon, Jason "Gummi Bear" Davis.

1. Piven is now a "big star" so he can make fun of the people who have no money for a car..........scumbag

2. This is exactly why I do not listen to any of these "celebrity spokesman." Most don't know what they are talking about or they don't practice at all what they preach. Just entertain!!

3. Piven pitches Cincinnati Bell here in OH/KY/IN and I'm sure he doesn't use that... give him a break - he complimented the guy for conserving fossil fuels, he never said he was the advocate for it. Sometimes people compliment people who lose weight who need to lose weight themselves.

4. Everyone in HOLLYWOOD is a hypocrit.....

They all have excellent thoughts on how "we" should manage our lives but, for them....they think they are ABOVE THE LAW......they do whatever they want, and not only do we allow it....we take pictures, and blog about it all day long to boot......

5. I think we should conserve more as a nation, but then I also believe that if you want a gas gussling car then you should get one. It's called freedom of choice, a little know American idea, morons!

6. Thank you Kev! people are obviously too retarded to realize that just cause he's commenting on it doesn't mean he's an advocate of it. Dumb people..

7. Jeremy Piven was just being friendly When he is Ari Gold he is presentable. When he is at award shows, he looks like a bum, unshaved, hair a mess, he can't get his clothes right with all these ulgly scarfs.

8. I love seeing Justin Guarini out and about.
He is my favorite entertainer!
I think that you captured him at Prom Night 2007.
He looked great, and there are beautiful pictures of him and his girlfriend who was running for one of the Prom queens, on Justin's website.
Justin is also one of the co hosts of Idol Chat, on the T.V Guide channel along with Kimberly Cauldwell, and the show is absolutely hilarious!
Justin has amazing chemistry with the rest of the cast and he is bright, funny and totally charming.
He also just finished filming a new movie called Fast Girl, where he wears a short wig (and looks fabulous) and he is working on his third cd too.
Keep the Justin coverage coming.
We love it!

9. Jeremy's just being friendly, and from the look on his face is remembering his days riding around on a bike with tall handles, he looks like he loves that bike so much. I rode one with these tall handles and a banana seat; they go like snot, and are awesome...I still stop when I see one. Freakin seats on mountain bikes suck compared to those little bikes.
I guess Jeremy's made it; they're critisizing the NICE things he saying...
Congrats, Jeremy, after all these years I think you've earned it. Let the haters come; and let the good roles come to you.
