Michael Phelps to Make Cameo on Entourage

Michael Phelps is making the rounds on the small screen.

The Olympic swimmer shot a cameo appearance for Entourage with Kevin Connolly in NYC Thursday, HBO confirmed to Usmagazine.com.

The fifth season of the show debuts September 7.

Phelps — who won eight gold medals in Beijing — is also hosting the season premiere of Saturday Night Live on September 13 and will be a guest on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno on Monday.

Last week, the 23-year-old landed a book deal for his memoir, titled Built to Succeed.

“The bullying and adversity made him be stronger and work harder,” his mom Debbie told Us Weekly.

“Michael may not have been able to focus in school, but I saw a passion for swimming at such a young age,” she said. “He could be at a swim meet or practice for hours. It was a great outlet.”

  • Kevin Connolly looks adorable in this pic. Only 1 week more before Entourge comes back. I can't wait! It's been fantastic having Kevin and the rest of the Entourage gang back east! Lots of photo ops!
