I just have to wonder, how much sushi does it take for mercury poisoning to happen? Surely he’s not on a diet best suited to Shamu or Flipper, is he?

TheEyeSeesAll,

Let’s not jump to conclusions. After all, hundreds died in Minamata, Japan due to mercury poisoning, and tens of thousands more were made extremely ill in Minamata and Niigata (another city.)

However, those were EXTREMELY high doses, and were probably several orders of magnitude higher than what Piven supposedly suffers from. Mercury poisoning can be dangerous, but at his levels I doubt he’s really “suffering.”

Yeah … but how come in countries like Japan (where they eat TONS of tuna, and where they eat 10 times as much fish as Jeremy Piven ever did), you find lower rates of practically every non-smoking-related disease? How come Japanese kids kick OUR kids’ asses in school?

Maybe mercury levels aren’t that big a deal.

Or maybe the wasabi neutralizes it.

Could be.

Eating a lot of tuna will greatly increase your mercury levels. Look it up.

This was posted on The Superficial, and credited to TMZ. I know one thing, I wouldn’t want this idiot to lie for me! Anyhow, here it is:

- Jeremy Piven tried to say he had mono before switching to his sushi-induced mercury poisoning excuse for bailing on a Broadway play. Personally, I think he should’ve gone with cat AIDS, but hey, we can’t all be professionals.

William H Macy is replacing Jeremy Piven? Reminds of another actor improvement.
