"Jeremy Piven has said that he has never had life as easy as Entourage&amp;#039;s lead character Vincent Chase. The actor plays movie agent Ari Gold in the HBO comedy drama, with A-list star Chase portrayed by Adrian Grenier. Piven told ShortList: &amp;quot;I was never the pretty boy. I was never handed things the way [Vincent] is. &amp;quot;He lives an incredibly charmed life, while I&amp;#039;ve always been walking into rooms and auditioning my whole life. This will sound pretentious but my life is the antithesis of Vinnie&amp;#039;s.&amp;quot; Of his own character on the show, Piven added: &amp;quot;One of the great quotes from John Malkovich is that you should never judge a character - there&amp;#039;s no time for that. And that&amp;#039;s served me very well. &amp;quot;You just try to put in as much integrity as you can, whether he&amp;#039;s a baddie or not. The test is if real agents find Ari authentic and they do.&amp;quot; "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
