Let's Hug It Out, BitchWe love it when Hollywood and Washington collide. And here's a connection that is priceless. "Entourage" fans love the wheeling and dealing of uber-agent Ari Gold -- a character who's based on real life agent Ari Emanuel. And that Ari is the brother of DC superstar Rahm Emanuel. Let's hope he treats his assistants better. [EMILY GOODIN] 2 Comments |

And let's not forget that Rahm himself is supposedly the model for The West Wing's Josh Lyman, also a firecracker:

Quite a family... to inspire not one, but TWO over-the-top, power-obssessed fictional characters!
Even more impressive is that many people believe that Josh Lymon from West Wing is based on Rahm himself - making the Emanuel brothers the only siblings to each inspire their own television characters.
