BRAD GARRETT (Everybody Loves
Raymone4.
Piven's role as an overbearing Jewish
talent agent in Entourage is the talk of
Hollywood insiders; he has finally
made his presence known, after play-
ing the sidekick of his real-life friend
John Cusack in movie after movie.
The other actors nominated are
ZACH BRAFF (lead actor, comedy,
for Scrubs); HANK AZARIA (lead
actor, drama, for Huff); WILLIAM
SHATNER (supporting actor, drama,
for Boston Legal); and PAUL NEW-
MAN, (supporting actor, TV movie,
for Empire Falls).
Newman, whose father was Jewish,
turned his back on any organized reli-
gion as a young man. However, he has
more or less defined himself as a cul-
tural Jew and has supported some
Jewish charities. Fl
