  • "Weird Al" Yankovic is the king of parody songs, with a multi-decade career that includes four Grammys, countless Top 40 hits, and a long list of live shows, including 2019's Strings Attached Tour. But how is he with spicy food? Find out as the "White & Nerdy" icon takes on the vegan wings of death in a very special Hot Ones season finale. As the Scovilles mount, Weird Al shares classic anecdotes about meeting Sir Paul McCartney and Michael Jackson, getting co-signed by Kurt Cobain, and inventing the infamous Twinkie wiener sandwich.
    Special thanks to Mr. Yankovic's groomer, Sean James!

    Weird Al helped me get through my childhood. I was raised in an apocalypse cult, and they were super strict about music, movies, any media really. Because Weird Al was funny and didn't swear, i was allowed to listen to his music. He helped me stay aware of both cultural attitudes and trends through the content of his music, and brought modern music into my home so that i knew what the music others were listening to sounded like. It made me laugh and made me feel less alone. Thank you, Weird Al.

    It's kind of upsetting to hear that people associated his music with a lot of the profane and racist parodies of songs that have been made. Al's parodies have always been unique in that they were never vulgar or overtly offensive. It was good, clean comedy that still managed to be hilarious. Al is a legend.

    I met Weird Al after one of his concerts. He was giving out free autographs and he let his fans walk right up to him in line. When I told him that my dad has been a fan since he was a kid and I have been a fan since I was a kid too, he said "Thanks so much". Just him saying that made me so happy. He was so nice and genuine. He's a good guy.

He's ultra famous, fabulously wealthy and is the definition of success but I can't help but just smile and say "I'm happy for you." The man is a quality human being, the kind of success story that we all cheer for.

    One of my favorite "Weird Al" memories: Back when MTV was all about music videos, I loved it when he "took over" the network to broadcast "AL-TV."

    Happy holidays indeed Weird Al. I got my sons all your albums on vinyl for Christmas and inside the sleeves were tickets for your show in Toronto 2019. They were so excited! Fantastic show. Can't wait to see the new movie! Also, great episode of hot ones.

      Lmfao. I guess we can’t pick n choose where we are born & how were raised. But once you get rich & famous, I can’t imagine having any excuse to not be exposed to intelligent folk or like idk. But I guess that’s in this day n age. 80s was insane.

      Pretty sure the Last Dab wing is already coated with sauce like the others.
      Either way, I cut him some slack for being over 60. Gotta be careful at that point, y'know? :v
