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.
