TMZ Tours

¡Los pasajeros del tour de celebridades de TMZ estaban de suerte hoy, porque Andrea Bocelli andaba por la ciudad y se subió al bus para cantarle al afortunado piloto!

Nos encontramos con el legendario tenor italiano por las calles de Hollywood el viernes, donde por casualidad estábamos haciendo nuestro TMZ Celebrity Tour y uno de nuestros guías vio a Andrea en el corazón de la ciudad y se bajó a entrevistarlo.

Fue una conversación bastante épica, si podemos decir. Compruébalo tú mismo, Andrea Bocelli no solo nos prestó atención contándonos todo sobre sus próximos proyectos, sino que también se subió al autobús y conversó con los pasajeros.

El tipo fue súper dulce y una vez que estuvo allí, le hizo un gran favor a uno de ellos.

No cantó el "Ave María", pero sí el "Cumpleaños feliz" a uno de nuestros guías.

Esto demuestra que realmente se ve gente famosa en el TMZ Celebrity Tour y vale la pena en un 100%, sobre todo cuando pasan cosas impresionantes como estas. Vamos a admitir que incluso nosotros estábamos un poco sorprendidos con ver a la estrella Andrea por aquí, porque el tipo es un icono absoluto.

TMZ Celebrity Tour bus riders were in a huge treat to end the week -- 'cause Andrea Bocelli was in town ... and he came aboard to put his pipes on display for one lucky rider!

We ran into the legendary Italian tenor out in the streets of Hollywood Friday -- where we happened to be doing our TMZ Celebrity Tour ... and one of our guides spotted Andrea and his son, Matteo, in the heart of the city, opting to hop off and interview him.

It made for a pretty epic conversation if we do say so ourselves. Check it out ... not only did AB give us the time of day -- telling us all about his upcoming projects -- but he also obliged us by coming on the bus and chopping it up with the riders.

The dude was super sweet ... and once he was on the bus -- he did someone a huge favor.

He didn't do "Ave Maria" here -- but Andrea did sing the next best thing ... and that would be "Happy Birthday" to one of our tour guide guests. Of course, phones were out for this one.

Just goes to show ... you really do see famous people on the TMZ Celebrity Tour -- and it's 100% worth its weight in gold, especially when awesome stuff like this happens. We'll admit ... even we were a little star-struck with Andrea's pop-in here, 'cause the dude's an absolute icon.

A gaggle of celebs posed on the streets of L.A. Saturday -- on a street lined with palm trees -- and it got us shamelessly thinking ... they've taken a page from our new TMZ Selfie Tour!!!

Cardi B, Kim Kardashian, Nicole Kidman, Kendall Jenner, Salma Hayek and a bunch of others who hit up the Balenciaga fashion show struck a pose in similar fashion to what normies do every day on our brand-new tour!

In case you didn't know ... the TMZ Selfie Tour takes our guests to all the iconic places in Bev Hills, West Hollywood and L.A. .... places that have become the staple for pics that define Hollywood -- the Paramount Studio gates, the famous Paul Smith pink wall, Colette Miller's Angel Wings, the amazing Capitol Records building, the TLC Chinese Theater, the Hollywood Walk of Fame, the Bev Hills Hotel, Rodeo Drive ... and more!!!

And thing is ... we very, very often see celebs along the way and have super fun encounters.

Howie Mandel is clearly a fan of the TMZ Celebrity Tour -- his shirt says it all -- but he's figured out a way to streamline the operation to just 45 seconds!

Howie was arriving at the 'AGT' shoot Wednesday in Pasadena, with a shirt emblazoned with the logo for our 2-hour show on wheels.

A  photog asked why he was wearing the TMZ Tee ... and by the look on his face he was a bit incredulous. For Howie, it was obvious. The comedian launched into his tour guide schtick.

Enter a woman who happened to be passing by ... Howie wrangled her to take the tour, though imploring her to keep her distance ... he is, after all, a renowned germaphobe.

You gotta watch the vid ... stupid us, we've been using buses for 10 years -- very comfy we might add -- but Howie figured out a way for normies to take the tour in just seconds.

Vanna White is awesome!!! She jumped on the TMZ Celebrity Tour Bus Saturday in the middle of her ice cream run, and who knew her son was so hot!

Vanna and 29-year-old Nikko had just hit up Jenni's Ice Cream shop in Bev Hills when our tour guide spotted her. Vanna jumped on the bus and had loads of fun with our guests.

TMZ broke the story, she's demanding at least half of what Pat Sajak makes if she'll continue her more than 40-year reign on the show. Pat makes around $15 million -- Vanna makes $3 mil and hasn't gotten a bump in 18 years. Remember, even "Wheel" refers to her and Pat as "the stars of the show," not distinguishing between the two.

If Vanna exits at the same time Pat hangs it up, it leaves the show without any familiar faces.

Everyone connected to the negotiations has gone radio silent, although a few weeks back a source with direct knowledge described the negotiations between Vanna and Sony as "very difficult."

Keegan-Michael Key joined a very lucky group on the TMZ Celebrity Tour ... offerin' up advice on how award shows can evolve so comedy bits don't drag people down.

Keegan hopped on our bus in Bev Hills ... and as his wife and writing partner Elle kicked it on the sidewalk, he offered up some tips on cringe-worthy humor during these awards shows.

KMK put it plainly -- you can make a killer joke that has a positive message ... but bringing someone down should be out of bounds.

He's pretty clearly referring to last week's Emmys ... where Jimmy Kimmel was dragged for "passing out" on stage as Quinta Brunson accepted her award for Outstanding Writing for a Comedy Series.

After finishing his TMZ Tour "Ted Talk," he entertained passengers with a throwback from 'Key & Peele' ... breaking out his substitute teacher character that he debuted a decade ago!!!

Sometimes guests on the TMZ Celebrity Tour get not one, but TWO extra special surprises --just ask the folks who had run-ins with Jamie Foxx and Lizzo!

First, it was Lizzo outside The Hollywood Roosevelt -- she just dropped her album "Special" last week -- and likely has a ton of promos to get done, but she still took a little time to chat it up with bus passengers ... even spilling on her favorite song from the album.

Then it was Jamie Foxx, who bus passengers spotted outside Avra in Beverly Hills.

The Oscar winner seemed to be catching up with a friend outside the celeb hot spot and gave our bus a friendly wave before joking he was going to hop on board.

Super pregnant Khloe Kardashian and super momager Kris Jenner just gave fans on the TMZ Celebrity Tour bus a huge thrill and, we'll be honest, they gave us what's known as a money shot.

Khloe and Kris were out Wednesday in WeHo flanked by security as they hit up a couple of baby stores -- on account of the whole fam being in birthing mode. We asked Khloe if she and Tristan Thompson are going with a "K" baby name, and just then it happened -- the TMZ tour bus pulled up, shocking everyone on the scene.

Check out the vid ... we talked Kim and Madonna with Kris, who seemed to have a case of the giggles. Khloe was also amused when he talked about her Kardashian kid being a family record-setter.
