Kara Killmer (Nurse Brett) and husband Andrew Cheney are expecting their first child
As TikTok continues to rave over the viral remix of 4 Non Blondes’ “What’s Up?” and Nicki Minaj’s “Beez in the Trap,” Chicago Fire fan favorites Taylor Kinney and David Eigenberg couldn’t help but jump in on the trend.
While it’s no secret that the Chicago Fire heroes have forged steel-tight bonds while saving the day each episode, the camaraderie is just as heartfelt behind the scenes as the close-knit
Chicago Fire cast members make the most of their downtime. While filming Season 14 of Fire, Kinney and Eigenberg created a unique rendition of the “What’s Up?”/“Beez in the Trap” trend.
Sabrina Carpenter hopped on the trend on Saturday Night Live, Jennifer Lopez performed the bit alongside 4 Non Blondes frontwoman Linda Perry, and countless other celebrities have gotten in on the joke. But move over, folks, because Kinney and Eigenberg delivered One Chicago gold.
In the clip, a fully-costumed Kinney kicks off with Perry’s iconic vocals, nailing the lip-sync with the utmost concentration as Severide. But as the camera panned to Firehouse 51 veteran Eigenberg, he missed his cue and proceeded to instantly fumble the lip-sync battle while excitedly dancing along. Despite missing his mark drastically, Eigenberg was beaming while excitedly mumbling along with Minaj’s lyrics.
After Miranda Rae Mayo captured the hilarious behind-the-scenes moment, Chicago Fire Chief Lighting Technician Anthony Lullo shared the video with fans on his Instagram. The post soon captured hundreds of likes from Chihards entertained by Eigenberg’s valiant attempt.
David Eigenberg says the Chicago Fire cast laughs “hard every day”
From humorous TikTok videos to iconic pranks on co-stars, Chihards never get tired of the Firehouse 51 heroes sharing glimpses into their on-set shenanigans, which are often a humorous vibe shift from the nail-biting action sequences that keep us on the edge. Just because the
Chicago Fire stars are filming high-stakes drama and blazing infernos doesn’t mean they don’t delight in the opportunity to goof around with their One Chicago family.
“We have laughed hard. We laugh hard every day on this show,” Eigenberg told NBC Insider in a November 2024 interview. “That’s why the crew has stayed. Everybody that could possibly stay stays because it’s a beautiful set.”
In an interview on the official One Chicago Podcast hosted by Chicago P.D. producer Brian Luce, Eigenberg explained that the Chicago Fire cast embraces a “low-grade sense of humor” on the set of the NBC nail-biter. He also revealed that upon Miranda Rae Mayo’s Season 4 introduction as Firehouse 51 leader Stella Kidd, she immediately joined in on the behind-the-scenes tomfoolery.
“When she first showed up, she threw me to the ground and jumped on top of me and did some other stuff to me, and I looked up and everyone, we were laughing so hard,” Eigenberg recalled. “She started it. She buried me and I told everybody, I said, ‘She fits in.’”

Patrick John Flueger Is Officially Coming Back to Chicago P.D. — And His 2026 Return Changes Everything
After months of silence, swirling rumors, and fan anxiety, Patrick John Flueger is
officially set to return to Chicago P.D. — and insiders say his 2026 comeback is far bigger than anyone expected.
Flueger, who portrays fan-favorite officer Adam Ruzek, quietly stepped away from the series, leaving viewers with cliffhangers, unresolved tension, and endless speculation about the future of his character. But now, sources close to production confirm that the actor is not only returning — he’s coming back with a storyline that promises a seismic shift for Season 13 and beyond.
Producers have reportedly been in negotiations with Flueger for months, crafting a return arc that gives the character the emotional weight and screen presence he deserves. Early whispers describe the comeback as “intense,” “personal,” and “tied directly to one of the biggest twists the show has ever done.”
While details remain under wraps, those familiar with the script hint that Ruzek’s re-entry will collide with ongoing investigations, complicated relationships inside Intelligence, and a major threat that forces him to confront the consequences of his absence.
Fans online are already celebrating the news, with posts flooding social media the moment rumors of his return surfaced. Many say the show hasn’t felt the same without him — and that his dynamic with long-running cast members, especially Marina Squerciati’s Burgess, is a core part of the show’s emotional backbone.
Industry chatter suggests that Flueger’s return could also pave the way for longer-term arcs, potentially setting up a powerful redemption storyline or even a leadership shift inside Intelligence. Some insiders hint that showrunners want Ruzek back at the center of the action, giving him the kind of complex, high-stakes narrative that originally cemented him as a standout character.
One source teased, “Fans think they know what Ruzek has been doing while he’s been away — but the truth is way more explosive.”
The official announcement is expected to drop soon, but based on everything we’re hearing, Patrick John Flueger’s 2026 comeback is not just a return — it’s a reset button for
Chicago P.D., a storyline that could redefine the show for years to come.
Fans, mark your calendars.
Ruzek is coming home — and nothing in the Intelligence Unit will ever be the same again.
