Blago drops in on "Rod Blagojevich Superstar"

Chicago's Second City comedy troupe, the launching pad for such stars as Joan Rivers, John Belushi, Mike Myers, and Bill Murray, has a new show based on Rod Blagojevich.

It was the first time Blagojevich had seen the hit musical, which gleefully skewers him as a hair-obsessed, power-hungry narcissist.

His take on the show?

"I thought it was all bull----," Blagojevich laughingly told the sold-out crowd after the performance at Navy Pier's Chicago Shakespeare Theater.

The show is running through at least August 9 at the Chicago landmark.
