Michigan: Alicia Silverstone, William Shatner and More In Town This Weekend

If you are a child of the '90s - or, heck, any generation, really - you've probably seen the movie Clueless at least a few times. I remember seeing it when I was old enough to see "grown-up" movies, and as a girl about to be a teenager, I loved every minute of it.

As it turns out, one big celebrity from Clueless will be in Michigan this weekend, along with a bunch of big names. It's going to be pretty easy to get star-struck in the Mitten this weekend.

The big stars are coming into town for the 2022 Motor City Comic Con is set for Friday (May 13) through Sunday (May 15) at the Suburban Collection Showplace in Novi. Tickets are available here.

Alicia Silverstone, of course, will be the Clueless star at the event. "As if!" She'll be there on Saturday and Sunday. In addition to Clueless, she is also known for her appearances in “Batman & Robin” and “Blast from the Past.” Another big name, William Shatner, will be at Motor City Comic Con on Friday and Saturday. He's known for his role as Captain Kirk in "Star Trek," as well as appearances in “Boston Legal” and “T.J. Hooker.”

Other famous names slated to appear at the event include Freddie Stroma, Brenton Thwaites, Aaron Sagers, Malcolm Goodwin, Christopher Eccleston, Taryn Manning, Adam Cole, Ruby Soho, Freddie Prinze Jr., Katie Cassidy, Caity Lotz, Chandler Riggs, Danny Trejo and Carey Jones. In addition, there will be a “Superman” reunion with Aaron Smolinski, Marc McClure, Sarah Douglas, Jack O’Halloran, Mark Pillow, Mariel Hemingway and Damian McLawhorn. A "Scream" reunion is also on tap, with Matthew Lillard, Skeet Ulrich and Jamie Kennedy Matthew Lillard. For more information, visit the event's official website.

I happen to think that Michigan has plenty of amazing places to live. From the beauty of the UP to the hustle and bustle of the major cities, Michigan really has something for everyone. If you've ever wondered what would be the best place in Michigan to live, we have the answer.

Niche has released the outlet's annual Best Places to Live rankings, which ranks the best cities and communities to live in judging by a variety of criteria. According to Niche, the results were based on several key factors, such as the quality of local schools, crime rates, housing trends, employment statistics and access to amenities. Using all of that data, they put together a list of the best cities to live in Michigan for 2022.

Going outside of Michigan, the handful of cities at the top of the list includes Chesterbrook, Pennsylvania; City Center, California; Penn Wynee, Pennsylvania; and Houserville, Pennsylvania. Gosh, that's a lot of love for Pennsylvania. I've been to that state many times, and it's beautiful, but I had no idea it had so many cities that would be considered the best in the U.S. In Michigan, the highest-rated city was Okemos, coming in at No. 12 for the entire country. I am very familiar with Okemos and totally agree it's a great place to be, so that result doesn't really surprise me.

Read on for the full list of the 35 best places to live in Michigan via Niche. Is your favorite Michigan city here? I was surprised to see Ann Arbor at No. 12, since they are usually No. 1 on these lists. That said, No. 12 is pretty great. I was also hoping to see Detroit on here. Needless to say, all the cities on here are deserving, but remember to venture outside of this list, since Michigan is packed with great spots to live.
