HBO’s hit about a close-knit pack of Hollywood insiders may be ready to air its eighth and final season, but it’s not the end of the road for these rascals. Get ready for "Entourage: The Movie"!
“It’s not just a rumor anymore,” Emmanuelle Chriqui, who stars as Kevin Connolly’s on-off girlfriend/fiancée Sloane on the series, explained on this morning’s “Fox & Friends.” “The producers and the creators and the actors—it is something we talk about.”
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}Chriqui also dished that her character’s upcoming nuptials with Connolly’s Eric “E” Murphy is on hold—for now. “I don’t know that E and Sloan were ever perfect,” said Chriqui. “It’s true love, but it’s been a ping-pong relationship. My (character’s) dad decided that, unbeknownst to me, to try and get E to sign a prenup—and that just didn’t go over well at all. So we start season eight not together.”
During her visit to the set of “Fox and Friends,” Chiriqui also gifted Alisyn Camerota with a silver bracelet, designed to benefit the actress’ pet charity, Raise Hope for Congo. “It goes to a great cause,” said Churiqui. “It’s a charity that’s really close to my heart, that I’ve been doing a lot of work for, raising awareness for the women and girls of the Congo.”
Half of the proceeds from sales of the bracelet go to Raise Hope for Congo. “(The Congo) is the most dangerous place in the world for a woman or girl to be—they use rape as weapon of warfare. We need to stop that and give them a voice.”
