Blue Man Suspect May Not Be Blue at All

Chicago cops now tell TMZ they're not sure if the man arrested for allegedly having oral sex in a public park is a member of the Blue Man Group ... but a rep for the Group says the dude has never been part of the outfit.

Earlier today, police released the name and occupation of the suspect, Darren Stephens, who told them he was a member of the group. A spokesperson for the Blue Man Group says "The person arrested is not currently and never has been a member of the Blue Man Group."

We called the police again, and they say they have not conducted a background check on Stephens, and that "people lie on arrest reports all the time."

3. See, now if you were a legitimate news organization, you would have known how to word this properly. I guess that's just one thing in a long list of differences between the paparrazzi and real journalists.

7. Hey Harvey, is your mom alive? If so, I bet she is so proud that her son is a bottom-feeding bloodsucker who thrives off the misery of others ... and if she has passed, thank God she doesn't have to witness what you have turned into ...

10. Thank you, oh thank you TMZ for NOT posting a picture of the group. I have nothing against them as people, but the whole blue thing, head to toe blue freaks me out. I was in Vegas a few years back and a friend of mind told me to turn around and there was one of the members, I nearly screamed. Scared the hell out of me.

13. "We called the police again, and they say they have not conducted a
background check on Stephens, and that 'people lie on arrest reports
all the time.'"

He might still be lying. Really? Darren Stephens? The ad executive
who works for McMann and Tate? Married to Samantha - the tall
mysterious blonde with the twitchy nose? No ... I don't believe it.


Sounds more like Tobias Funke to me.

14. How much you want to bet it was really Illinois Gov. Blow-dry-a-vich! Guess he was selling another government job and the poor sap didn;t have fifty grand so he had to "eat a little wall paper paste." Now you know the real reason why Chicago is called "The Windy City" lot of people getting blowed on the lake shore!
