It's a 'Real' mystery: Who's the rock star?

        While Keri was busy making moon eyes at fellow "Real World" castmate Kyle, Cara--the roomie who has never been without a boyfriend--aimed outside their Wicker Park apartment to land a "date" with a rock star in this week's episode of the MTV docudrama, which was shot in Chicago last summer and fall.
        The object of her affection? Most likely, it was Todd Park Mohr, lead singer of Big Head Todd and the Monsters.
        Her date wouldn't consent to being filmed for the series, so his face was rubbed out and his voice distorted. But between Keri and Cara gushing about how hot the lead singer of this famous group is and MTV filming the shenanigans at the Old St. Pat's block party in July, it wasn't difficult to deduce.
        The lineup at the party was Big Head Todd and the Monsters, Blues Traveler, Verbow, Gertrude, Anna Fermin's Trigger Gospel, the Riptones, David Mead, Marty Lloyd Band, Cadillac Dave and the Redhots and World Class Noise. And the singer's silhouette definitely was too slim to be John Popper of Blues Traveler. (Mohr's management didn't return our calls by press time.)
        But Cara was definitely pleased with her catch. When she stumbled back home the next morning, she coyly told her giddy roommates how much she enjoyed canoodling with her famous friend and rated him as a great kisser. But she wouldn't say whether she saw more of Mohr than his big head.
        Over at www.chicago.citysearch.com, the show's fans already have concluded that the pair did the big nasty. Decide for yourself: The episode repeats at 11 a.m. Saturday and 3 p.m. Sunday.
