In an interview with The Hollywood Reporter, Emanuel — whose client list includes Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson, Charlize Theron, Mark Wahlberg, and Oprah Winfrey (he’s also the inspiration behind the loud-talking, aggressive Ari Gold on “Entourage”) — reveals that he still hustles for his clients.

This is the most detailed map of the Zika virus that we've ever seen.
Scientists at Purdue University and the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases fired electron beams at a frozen sample of Zika to create this image, which maps the surface of the virus at a resolution of 3.8 Angstroms.
