Chicago cruises bring fans up close with celebs
If you've always wanted to try one of those cruises where you share a boat with a cool celeb, you may be in luck this summer — for at least a few hours.
What's happening: City Cruise Live kicks off its Chicago series Sunday with a concert cruise featuring Ken Block and Drew Copeland of '90s pop band Sister Hazel.
Later this season, set sail with "bad boy" golfer John Daly, World Series champs Ozzie Guillen and A.J. Pierzynski, or former Bears Brian Urlacher and Rex Grossman as they swap stories during on-ship interviews.
The prices: Tickets for Sunday's cruise start at $77 without food or drink and go up to $243 for a VIP package with buffet dinner, open bar and Sister Hazel meet and greet.
The intrigue: When we asked City Cruise spokesperson Kathy Bryja if non-VIPs could expect face (or hair) time with Urlacher and other celebs, she said it depends.
"One cruise had a member of NSYNC who they thought would just do a show but he ended up shaking everybody's hand," Bryja said. "What we can say is that passengers will be on a boat with Brian Urlacher for three hours."

Jon Stewart Weighs In On L.A. Protests, Says Trump Is Escalating To Distract From Elon Musk's Epstein Accusation: 'Petty And Petulant Man-Babies'
Jon Stewart weighed in on the Los Angeles protests in opposition to Donald Trump's escalation of ICE deportations, saying the tactic is to distract from the tit-for-tat feud between him and Elon Musk, in which the tech titan accused him of being in the Jeffrey Epstein files. 'Is your city ever not on fire? Whether you win a basketball championship, a World Series championship, whether you have an exploding piñata gender reveal gone wrong — congratulations, it's a boy and an evacuation — or you're just protesting the Trump administration's expanded deportation raids, L.A. continues to be our most flammable city,' Stewart began during tonight's installment of The Daily Show. More from Deadline Why There Is So Much Worry In Public Media That Donald Trump Will Win Fight To Defund NPR, PBS And Local Stations Trump Sending Marines To L.A. To Respond To ICE Protests; POTUS Also Plans To Deploy Additional 2,000 Guard Troops, Gavin Newsom Says - Update BET Awards Set To Go On Amid LA Protests Against Immigration Raids Commenting specifically on the autonomous vehicles that were set on fire during some of the demonstrations, Stewart quipped: 'Took five of them before you were like, 'Should we stop sending the Waymos?'' He added jokingly, 'How dare you? How could you use Waymo's innocence and helpful spirit against the Waymo? Imagine for a moment: Waymo's disappointment upon realizing it was, as Admiral Ackbar might say, 'a trap!' You got Waymo going, 'Hello, it is my honor to take you to Hollywood and—what are you doing? My God no! I'm giving you only one star. Tell my Roomba I love her!'' In his signature misdirect, Stewart then seemingly praised the MAGA-sphere for approaching the crisis in the City of Angels with a 'somber' tone, playing clips of a series of newscasts, including Ted Cruz saying the situation was 'deeply unfortunate.' Except — 'I'm sorry, I'm being told that wasn't about Los Angeles,' Stewart said, 'that was them heartbroken that Trump and Elon have gone no-contact. That's a slightly different thing. That's true. See, for the Right right now, I guess that's the real national tragedy … See, the upset in L.A. is in a blue state, in a blue city, with people that they don't give a f— about.' Insinuating that the sending of the National Guard is to 'distract from' another important matter, Stewart addressed Musk's allegation, which has since been scrubbed from his X social media platform. 'Oh right, that's what we were talking about, which, now, to be fair to Trump, it is ridiculous — I mean, you can't just make wild accusations like that just because Trump and Epstein hung out once, or twice, or Trump was in the flight logs or Epstein called Trump his 'closest friend,' or they went to parties and whispered, I can only assume, Biblical passages in each other's ears,' he said. Concluding his segment, the political comic added, 'It must be hard for the Right to see how petty and petulant these two man-babies are and how they wield their power in vindictive and capricious manners when they don't get exactly their way and the damage that that behavior causes. And I guess what I would say to the Right is: 'Welcome to our f—ing world every day. Now you know.''
