Last night Pitbull made a stop on his North America Global Warming co-heading tour w/ Ke$ha on the Jay Leno Show. He gave an shout out to his fellow tour partners, Ke$ha and Chicago's/B96's own Jump Smokers on the show. In the interview Pitbull talks about his mother and how he came about the name Pitbull. He also stated: 'The revolution to me, is education.' He also perform his new single 'Outta Nowhere' with Danny Mercer. Watch the clip below.

"May I ask what happened to you?" Kimmel said, "Because I think we were worried that you were going to die. Did you know that everyone thought you were going to die?"

The very question made Wayne laugh almost uncontrollably, as he said he did not know that.

It was the first to many fits of laughter for Wayne on the show, who was in probably the best humor he's ever been in for an interview. In the history Weezy's interviews.

Wayne did get serious to address his epilepsy, saying, "It's a private medical matter that we've been dealing with my whole life. We're so used to it happening so my doctors prepped all my homies and now they know that..."

"I would have loved to be at that meeting," Kimmel interrupted. "Who is that is Dr. Dre your physician?"

Kimmel ask, "Do you remember me visiting you?"  and then he asked  "Lebron James visit you?," Wayne stated, "No. But he sent his concerns." Kimmel then goes, "Supposedly you got banned from Miami Heat, from their stadium." Wayne: "No, they said I'm allow back there but I don't think they want me there."

Wayne also insisted he's still planning on his retirement, but wants it to be after Tha Carter V. That's not in the too-near future, however, because he's got projects with his father and Birdman in mind first. But Wayne was clear: This will be his first and only retirement.

Kimmel: "What would do you do when you retire? Wal-Mart Greeter?" Lil Wayne: "Everything that I never got a chance to do."

CHICAGO -- This weekend was the HOTTEST weekend in Chicago. Yes, the HOTTEST. Why, the HOTTEST? Because B96 brought their annual SummerBash this past Saturday back to Toyota Park with 10 of the HOTTEST artist plus special surprise guest that's out now in pop, electric dance, r&B, alternative & rock.

The annual music festival always hit the June 15/16th weekend, whichever the Saturday date falls on at the same venue since moving to the venue in 2006, which is Toyota Park in Bridgeview where the Chicago Fire Soccer team plays. The SummerBash also brings new rising artists who is just coming out to promote their new music. It attracts an audience from pre-teens to adults depending on the festival line-up.

B96 is an CBS Radio station who operates on FM (96.3) and they also kick off the festival with a Pre-Bash outside the venue in it's parking out which latest from 12 NOON to the start of the main stage at 4PM CT.

This year's bash included: Zedd, Sammy Adams, Avril Lavigne, Ne-Yo, EMBLEM3, Timeflies, Demi Lovato, Cher Lloyd, Afrojack. Ariana Grande was schedule to perform but was pulled out the line-up the day of due to illness. So... B96 brought a lot of surprises to the audience to make up Ariana Grande. When Sammy Adams performed (which he also performed at the B96 SummerBash Pre-Show on Wednesday at the Rosemont Theatre), he brought out Mike Posner to perform with him on his latest single 'LA Story' which featured Posner. Then, Posner performed a snippet of his new single for the crowd. After that B96 brought out a surprise they threw together last minute, they brought out Chicago's own electronic dance group Krewella who was in town to perform for another Chicago festival titled Spring Awakening at Soldier Field. And when Demi Lovato performed "Really Don't Care" which feature Cher Lloyd from her debut album Demi and actually performed it with Cher Lloyd.

I really enjoyed Ne-Yo, Zedd, Sammy Adams, Avril Lavigne, Demi and Macklemore & Ryan Lewis.

You get a recap of photos and videos here and you can get more photo's and videos here.

All thanks to Chicago's B96 Radio, our Senior Editor, DJ Jr., was invited to yesterday's movie advance screening of World War Z at AMC River East in Chicago, which stars Brad Pitt and is out on June 21.

Well.... DJ thought it was an regular movie screening with NOT a t-shirt and a concession stand coupon for a popcorn and a drink  plus B96 DJing but that's not all... BRAD PITT!

Yes, the biggest movie star on the planet, Brad Pitt show up and did an introduction before the screening of the movie and left, and we have the video for you( (below) from B96 and pictures that DJ took.

When they finally took the time to sit everyone down and get everyone that was suppose to be and who they could get in and sit down, there was an announcement saying that they were having "technical difficulties with the movie" but yet it was actually waiting for Brad Pitt and soon after they said that, "BAM!," he showed up.

The crowed erupted and went crazy when he surprised the movie goers.

World War Z? Amazing! Make sure you go see it on June 21st when it comes out in a theater need you!
