Annie posted earlier today about Michael Phelps' upcoming hosting duties on Saturday Night Live. The Olympic swimming champ isn't wasting any time capitalizing on his stardom, because now he's also landed a cameo on HBO's Entourage.
According to the World Entertainment News Network, the eight-time gold medal winner will appear as himself in an upcoming episode of the buddy-series, which begins its fifth season on Sept. 7.
Phelps certainly must have some good people working with him, because in addition to hosting SNL, he'll be among the presenters at the MTV Video Music Awards on Sept. 7.
I'm sure there are dozens of other gigs and endorsements lined up for him. Maybe The Powers That Be will take note of Allison's post earlier this month, and recruit the man-dolphin for Heroes, Lost, NCIS, House, or The Man From Atlantis.
At the very least, maybe he'll pick up a few pointers from Vince and the boys, and form his own entourage. If he's lucky, he'll find an assistant as cool as Lloyd -- and an agent as ruthless and relentless as Ari.
