The stars of Entourage have been in New York to celebrate season five of their hit show. Executive producer Mark Wahlberg, who loosely based the series on himself, was on the red carpet alongside Jeremy Piven, who won two Emmies for playing alpha agent Ari Gold. The new season may be tough on Ari but it is smooth sailing for Johnny Drama played by Kevin Dillon, who finds himself at the top of his career. Unfortunately the same cannot be said for star Vincent Chase, played by Adrian Grenier. His day job is in tatters after the disastrous screening of his movie Medellin at the Cannes Film Festival. He has grown a beard, gained weight and has not been offered a role in six months. True to form, the series features celebrity guests and cameos. Rapper Bow Wow plays a comedian and Sopranos star Jamie-Lynn Sigler plays herself. US swimming sensation Michael Phelps also appears.
