'Weird Al' Yankovic

Alfred Matthew Yankovic, born on October 23, 1959 in the Los Angeles suburb of Lynwood, is an icon of pop culture and the biggest-selling comedy recording artist of all time. His royal highness, more commonly known as "Weird Al" Yankovic, began his illustrious career as a shy teenager playing the accordion and sending homemade tapes to the Dr. Demento Radio Show. His accomplishments have been truly regal, having been honored with four Grammy Awards and fifteen nominations, including a 2015 win for his 14th studio album Mandatory Fun. His repertoire of classic song and music video parodies such as "Eat It," "Like a Surgeon," "Smells Like Nirvana," "Amish Paradise," "White & Nerdy" and "Word Crimes" will be remembered as part of his monarchy's legacy for generations to come.
