SEEN ON THE SCENE: On the heels of broadcasting from the Super Bowl in Houston, South Side native Jenny McCarthy will be hosting a special event Thursday in St. Charles. The actress and TV personality invited some fans and SiriusXM subscribers to watch the “Fifty Shades Darker” film starring Dakota Johnson and Jamie Dornan. A post-screening discussion will be recorded and aired Friday on her SiriusXM show, heard at 10 a.m. on SiriusXM Stars. The private “Fifty Shades Darker”/”Jenny McCarthy’s Inner Circle” event will take place at the Classic Cinemas Charlestowne 18 multiplex on East Main Street in St. Charles, beginning at 7 p.m. Thursday. … Country star Tyler Farr surprised the crowd with a late-night/early-morning set at Bub City in Rosemont. While Over the Side was performing a Brett Eldridge song, Farr jumped up on stage and, after poking a bit o’ fun at Eldridge, sang a few of his own songs, including “Guy Walks Into a Bar.”
