It's not a rumor, in the special features of season 2 (Walberg Sessions), the executive producers of Entourage discuss the fact that Ari Gold is based upon Ari Emanuel. They go on to discuss a conversation they had with Ari Emanuel who says that if they want to base their character (Ari Gold) off of him, they need to use Jeremy Piven. Because Jeremy Piven was considered too expensive at the time, the executive producers realized that they were going to need to come up with the money to hire Piven for the character of Ari Gold. The rest is history.
