PHOTOS: Adrian Grenier Launches Hipster Beer Company Backed By Tech Leaders
Posted by: | CommentsLife is imitating art for Adrian Grenier.
Nearly a year after his "Entourage" character Vince backed his buddy's Avión tequila line alongside Mark Cuban on the HBO show, Grenier is launching a real-life beer company of his own.
But Grenier's new venture is a less about models popping bottles in the club and more about the craft of making beer.
The actor and his friend, former Nike designer Justin Hawkins, co-founded Churchkey Can Co.—a throwback flat-top beer that requires what those of the mid-1900s called a "church key" tool to open it. We got an invite to the launch party, where Grenier taught us how to open a can.
With a handful of Silicon Valley investors behind the company and its vintage vibe, Mens Journal recently called Churchkey "the Instagram of beers."
It is rumored that executives from Facebook, Zynga and CrunchFund have all put capital into the company.
"There was a wide net of people from all different nooks and crannies of Silicon Valley who jumped on," Grenier told Business Insider when we spoke to him Tuesday at Apothéke cocktail bar in New York City, where he and Hawkins held a small press preview.
They're staying mum on who exactly, but Grenier will say "a handful, less than a dozen."
"We got a really great response. Tech investors tend to be a little younger and more willing to take risks," adds the actor. "It's great and exciting for young guys in tech to get into something with old technology."
"I think this is refreshing for them," says Grenier of the Pilsner-style beer which will retail at $9.99 for a six pack. "It's a human experience in a technical world."
The event took place at Apothéke cocktail bar in the middle of Chinatown.

The hip bar's exterior is very unassuming.

But inside, press gathered around a beautiful old bar.

Roy Horn’s Male Caregivers Are Suing Him For Sexual Harassment
Posted by: | CommentsA graphic video of of Roy Horn—of Siegfried and Roy fame—allegedly groping, fondling and squeezing his male employees is currently being shopped around, according to TMZ.
Horn, 68, is the star of the former Las Vegas mainstay "Siegfried and Roy" show, which ended in 2003 after Horn was brutally mauled by one of the duo's many tigers.
While Horn has since been going through rehab to strengthen his left side, his right side is still very strong.
And apparently Horn's right side is powerful enough to grope the male physical therapists (all straight with families) helping him. The caregivers are now suing Horn in Nevada court for the alleged sexual assaults.
According to the sexperts over at TMZ, the video clearly shows Horn allegedly doing the following:
- As a caretaker helps Roy to the bathroom, Horn shoves his hand into the man's butt crack in an aggressive manner
- On another trip to the bathroom, Roy thrusts his rear end into the male caretaker's crotch
- In two clips, Roy grabs the genitals of two male caretakers
- Roy goes under the shirt of one caretaker and appears to tweak his nipples. The caretaker appears to writhe in pain
- It appears Roy gets frustrated with one of the caretakers and violently whips him with an oxygen tube
- Roy manhandles one of the caretakers and forcibly kisses him on the mouth
Unfortunately for Horn, this case isn't going to magically disappear.
