Dan aykroyd is an icon, what more needs to be said.  we had a great brunch once morning last time he was in chicago and I happened to have a camera in my bag (go figure)… so of course, I turned it on!  This was so on the fly, but you can tell he knows his chicago very very well… it was just a huge pleasure to hear that he had such love & respect for the city that I love & respect… enjoy this video… its rough & grassroots… but its real straight from the heart talk & one of my favorites.
 
as for me & the olympics, if you are following me on twitter (click here to follow), you know i just left russia, landed in sweden, and am soon to be in copenhagen to meet president obama & my fellow chicago 2016 olympic committee members for the official 2016 olympic host announcement on oct 2nd where i am sure chicago will win! especially if everyone helps to spread our enthusiastic spirit!

chicago 2016 olympics w/ musician & producer from the roots ?uestlove

General

 

 

after hanging with jimmy fallon back stage at “the late show” after his show, interviewing him about why he loves chicago (see below)… I had to sit with my man questlove from “the roots!”  now, I have always loved the band “the roots” but after getting to know my man questlove… I have even more respect for the group!  He is just a super smart guy, who knows his music, knows his history, knows his culture, and knows his chicago!  I think you will agree when you see this video…

chicago 2016 olympics w/ oscar winner jamie foxx

General

 

 

I first took jamie foxx out on the town about 8 years ago… he was always a very nice guy- actually kind of quiet back then?  As the years went by, he really opened up and let himself shine, ripping the mic at my clubs getting crazy, winning acting awards, making great music,… totally impressive, and still, a very nice guy. 
 
This video is from a very similar night, where Jamie walked into the underground recently, said big hellos, grabbed my mic, and went nuts!  He also stopped to talk to me about his feelings for chicago, the country & the olypics here in 2016!  I know you will enjoy…

Joel madden and I had a great talk after sunda one night, just before he dj’ed a big party at the underground, about how he balanced the entertainment business, w/ his personal life, being married to nicole Richie.  He summed it all up with “happy wife, happy life!”  love that line.  Anyway, got him to share his feelings on chicago & the Olympics too, and it ended up being a really fun conversation for you to enjoy here!
 
as for me & the olympics, if you are following me on twitter (click here to follow), you know i just left russia, landed in sweden, and am soon to be in copenhagen to meet president obama & my fellow chicago 2016 olympic committee members for the official 2016 olympic host announcement on oct 2nd where i am sure chicago will win! especially if everyone helps to spread our enthusiastic spirit!

chicago 2016 olympics w/ melrose place's katie cassidy

General

 

 

Katie Cassidy & I actually had the most tripped out scene together in “nightmare on elm street” that filmed here in chicago all summer!  I played a cop who had to walk into a crime scene w/ my gun drawn, down a long scary hallway to a dungy bedroom, where there was a dead ripped up body, at which time I had to deliver my lines. Katie was the main character that happened to be that dead body!  Anyway… love when movies and talent come to chicago like this… hope you do too!
