"WEIRD AL" YANKOVIC

Celebrity Guest

Few would have guessed that “Weird Al” Yankovic – who, as a shy, accordion-playing teenager, got his start sending in homemade tapes to the Dr. Demento Radio Show– would go on to become a pop culture icon and the biggest-selling comedy recording artist of all time, with classic song and music video parodies such as“Eat It,” “Like a Surgeon,” “Smells Like Nirvana,” “Amish Paradise,” “White & Nerdy” and “Word Crimes.” Now in his fourth decade as America’s foremost song parodist, he has received numerous awards, including five Grammys® (out of sixteen total nominations) and a string of Gold and Platinum albums.
