  • Filed a $4 million lawsuit against neighbor Julie Newmar in 2004. He accused her of using harassment and defamation to force him from the Brentwood, California street they share. A newspaper article quoted a resident not involved with the dispute as saying "She's weird." and "He's a bully." In January 2006, the two announced they had settled their differences out-of-court, and later that year Newmar guest-starred on an episode of According to Jim that poked fun at their feud by having Newmar play a neighbor who annoys Belushi's character.
  • Member of the jury at the Venice Film Festival in 1991.
  • Co-owner of House Of Blues clubs with Dan Aykroyd.
