Jeremy Piven (for some reason, E! Online's Kristin Veitch refers to him as "Mr. Ari Fleiss," but we're pretty sure she means Ari Gold, and not some Hollywood agent/madame hybrid) ditched his Mom/date at the after parties for someone younger, hotter, and who didn't give birth to him: Melrose Bickerstaff, better known as the runner-up on the latest season of America's Next Top Model. They were "flirting, smooching and displaying all sorts of couple-like behavior." His Entourage spouse Perrey Reeves, meanwhile, consoled Bubbe Piven, who tearfully questioned why he couldn't "just find a nice girl without a ridiculous-sounding shiksa name."
TMZ Reports an Update:
Not so fast, Melrose tells TMZ. "No, I am not Jeremy's new girl," she says. "He is not my boyfriend. He invited me out, I showed up, we had a good time. Nothing more. "Mel went on to say that the pair are just pals, and joked, "If having a friend means I'm dating them all, then I guess that means I have about 20 boyfriends." Where's the line?
