THE BIG ILLI MO STORIES THIS WEEK ARE:



Galpals Amy Schumer and Jennifer Lawrence joined Billy Joel on stage at his concert at Wrigley Field in Chicago where the actresses reportedly climbed onto Billy's piano and danced to a performance of his hit song "Uptown Girl" (a song that also plays a big role in Amy's film Trainwreck).
Amy and Jennifer looked to be having the time of their lives as they danced around on stage in front of the huge crowd.

And it seems like the two are as close as friends can possibly be -- especially with Jennifer literally kissing Amy's feet as she climbed up on Billy's grand piano.
 We are surprised they didnt make out! LOL

 Chicago native rapper/actor Common have been added to the cast of the live musical of The Wiz. He will play the Bouncer, the gatekeeper of the entrance to Emerald City who is out to get what he can from Dorothy and her three friends. NBC boss Bob Greenblatt described the gatekeeper as a “non-singing comedic role.”
The Wiz Live! is executive produced by Craig Zadan and Neil Meron — who also made NBC’s previously high-wire musical telecasts, 2013’s The Sound of Music Live! and last year’s Peter Pan Live! The Wiz Live! is directed by Kenny Leon with Harvey Fierstein providing new written material, and it also marks the first NBC musical to made with Cirque Du Soleil, whose acrobats will be used in certain scenes (such as the tornado and flying monkeys).

Us personally, he shudda played The Wizard.




The star of Empire, Chicagoan Terrence Howard, may be getting a lot less face time on the hit Fox show due to his own personal drama.
Terrence Howard is reportedly getting his role cut back due to divorce proceedings with his ex-wife, Michelle Ghent, and previous allegations of domestic abuse, according to Page Six.
Howard who plays Lucious Lyon, the founder and CEO of Empire Entertainment, in the record label drama. As one of the main protagonists, alongside Taraji P. Henson, it's hard to tell what a scaled back role will mean for both Howard and his TV character.
Henson's role as Cookie Lyon will allegedly get larger, according to Page Six's source, while Lucious' position in prison as well as the many guest stars that will appear on the show may mean that "the average viewer won't realize it because there is so much going on." Some of those guestsinclude A-list names like Mariah Carey, Chris Rock and Alicia Keys.
At a press junket in Chicago over the weekend, which Howard sat out of, Henson told ET that things with her co-star were "going great," before redirecting the conversation.
Empire was back in production when a judge ruled on Howard's divorce proceedings on Monday. 
Lets just hope all these celebrity appearance wont water down the brand now that everyone wants to be on the show.

Chicago native soul singer Chaka Khan will be joining season 21 of  Dancing With the Stars. It  premieres Monday, Sept. 14  on ABC, and the remaining contestants will be revealed on Sept. 2 on Good Morning America.



Spike Lee's new Amazon movie Chiraq will be released in theatres in December. The movie is hoping to be considered for next year's Academy Awards. Lee just wrapped up filming in Chicago. It's that city's violence that's' focused on in the film. There was some controversy when Mayor Rahm Emanuel let his feelings be known he was not in support of the film's slant, including the title, Chiraq, which is slang for Chicago violence. Chiraq, the first release under Amazon Studios, stars newcomer Teyonah Parris, Nick Cannon, Wesley Snipes, Jennifer Hudson, Angela Bassett, Jon Cusack, Samuel L. Jackson, La La Anthony and Dave Chappelle.




According to stltoday.com, Sinclair Broadcast Group, owner of stations including KDNL (Channel 30) in St. Louis, and Dish network have reached an agreement restoring the stations' signal to the satellite provider. The stations had been blacked out about 24 hours.
The agreement was reached after the FCC intervened in the dispute. Terms weren't disclosed.

Sinclair Broadcast Group, owner of 129 stations nationwide including KDNL (Channel 30) in St. Louis, blacked out its stations on Dish network in a dispute with the satellite provider earlier this week. That meant Dish subscribers were  unable to watch ABC programming and everything else on KDNL until the situation, which hinges on fees, is resolved.
Dish called the move "the largest local channel blackout in history of television" and accused Sinclair of intending to "intentionally exploit millions of innocent consumers."

The blackout took place at 4 p.m. Tuesday, a little more than a week after Sinclair's retransmission contract with Dish expired.

Now everyone can go back to watching judge shows, cooking shows and mind numbing baby daddy shows. LOL

Why didnt that black reporters former colleagues didnt take his threats of getting revenge at that station seriously? And why did the reporter post the shooting of his colleagues on social media? Why arent there any one to compete with Donald Trump for the  GOP Presidency? And why does it seem that he is giving what the media wants with his polarizing comments about Mexicans? Why is that cheating while married site Ashley Madison called such? Why is there gonna be a Caitlyn Jenner costume for Halloween? Why did Chris Brown get two tatts on his head? Why did folks on that NAPA Wine trip lie and say those black woMen were loud on the train? Why did it take the movie "Straight Out of Compton" for Dr Dre to pen an apology to abusing women" Why were people expecting Common to have beef about Drake dating his ex Serena Williams? And why are there so any reality shows filmed in Atlanta?
