	Chertoff Meets Jack Bauer

TURNS out Homeland Security Secretary Michael Chertoff is a huge fan
of "24." When he heard Kiefer Sutherland, who plays counter-terrorist
agent Jack Bauer, was in Washington, D.C., over the weekend to shoot
the hit Fox series, Chertoff paid a visit to the set outside the
Willard Intercontinental Hotel to see art imitating his life. "He
observed them filming a scene and talked with executive producer Brad
Turner," a rep for the L.A.-based show told The Post's Melissa Jane
Kronfeld. Sutherland even met his real-life counterparts, a group of
15 counter-terrorist FBI agents, who posed for a photo with the star.
Producers shot more scenes at the Jefferson and Washington Memorials,
the Capitol and in Georgetown. Among the throngs of fans who shouted,
"Go Jack!" and "Kiefer, Kiefer!" was Motion Picture Association head
Dan Glickman. After wrapping, Sutherland was spotted eating at
Nathan's and bar-hopping at Billy Martin's and McFadden's.
