Weird Al Yankovic, musical genius and satirist who has enthralled audiences for a 40 plus year career has received a star on the Hollywood Walk Of Fame. Former radio personality (and mentor to Weird Al) Dr. Demento, comedian Thomas Lennon of Reno 911! fame and Yankovic himself spoke at the unveiling ceremony. We cannot think of a more deserving person crossing pop culture and subversive humor than Weird Al for an honor like this.
Weird Al has one request: "Please don't pickaxe my star. I know it's all the rage these days, but that's not cool. Unless at some point in the future, I do something unfathomably monstrous and evil in which case, sure, fine, okay, go ahead" pic.twitter.com/anFQn6lFla
