Weird Al Yankovic is tacky! |

Weird Al Yankovic is releasing his 14th studio album tomorrow. To promote Mandatory Fun he’s releasing a music video a day for the next 8 days from the album. Today is day one, and he’s starting the ball rolling with his parody of Pharrell William’s Happy. The first song off the record is called Tacky and he got some tacky friends like Jack Black and Eric Stonestreet to help him out. As fun as it is to see Jack Black Twerk, I would’ve preferred watching Weird Al the whole time because his moves were just hypnotizing. Exactly like Pharrell’s hat! On that note where what that hat in this video? That was a totally missed opportunity.

Weird Al’s tracklisting revealed and it’s Mandatory Fun! |

On July 15th, Weird Al Yankovic is releasing his 14th album and today they released the tracklisting for Mandatory Fun. At this point, we don’t know what songs he is parodying on the CD that is available for preorder now. But it appears that he won’t be doing the one I was hoping he’d do. I was really wishing he was going to record his version of Psy’s Gangnam Style as Polka Style. Could you imagine the video he would’ve done for it?
On that note, starting on July 14th, he will be releasing a music video a day for 8 days from Mandatory Fun. And it will be mandatory fun to watch them all.
Below are the songs from the album and I’m thinking Word Crimes might be Blurred Lines. Have you been able to decipher what other tunes he is giving his own twist to on it?
1 – Handy
2 – Lame Claim to Fame
3 – Foil
4 – Sports Song
5 – Word Crimes
6 – My Own Eyes
7 – NOW That’s What I Call Polka!
8 – Mission Statement
9 – Inactive
10 – First World Problems
11 – Tacky
12 – Jackson Park Express

Hey Weird Al is that a dolphin between your legs, or are you happy to see me? |

Weird Al Yankovic Instagrammed this photo of himself of a dolphin kiddie ride; and it’s just so cute that I had to share with you. Wonder if after he rode that fish, he went inside to stomp on some weasels?
Even I will admit that my joke was White & Nerdy, but in my defense at the time I thought it made the cut Like a Surgeon. OK, I’ll stop now before you send me to an Amish Paradise.

Weird Al Yankovic pretty much always wears his hair showcasing his natural curls. Well yesterday the singer Instagrammed the above photo with very loose waves. So are those curls gone forever? Nope the look was just for a photoshoot, as soon as he washes his hair they will be back. Although part of me wishes he would keep his locks this way because it really suits him!

Emo Weird Al! |

Long before there were Emo rockers, there was Emo Philips. The comedian starred in a little movie called UHF back in 1989 and nearly 15 years later he dressed as his co-star Weird Al Yankovic for Halloween. Well it wouldn’t be fair for him to channel the schlock rocker without someone doing him. It took a Criminal Mind to take on that task and that person was Matthew Gray Gubler.
Seeing the two of them together like that makes me want to find a VHS copy of UHF and watch that movie again.
