Ari's brother
Sure, this really has nothing to do with "Entourage" but it's a fun connection, nonetheless.
The character of Ari Gold was modeled after superagent Ari Emanuel.
On Thursday, Ari Emanuel's brother Rahm Emanuel accepted the position of White House Chief of Staff for President-elect Barack Obama.
Again, nothing really to do with the show, but it's worth a little notation here.

I think it's funny how people seemed so surprised by this. =]

Just like Ari Gold was based on Ari Emanuel, Josh Lyman from the West Wing was based on Rahm Emanuel. Incidentally, Josh Lyman served as the Chief of Staff to Matthew Santos, who was based on Barack Obama. Life imitating art imitating life!
Adam, that almost made my head hurt. But that's pretty crazy.
