Weird Al Yankovic

Alfred Matthew Yankovic (nascut el 23 d'octubre de 1959), més conegut com a "Weird Al" Yankovic, és un músic satíric, productor televisiu i acordionista americà. És conegut particularment per les seves cançons humorístiques que sorgeixen de la cultura popular, de paròdies de cançons molt conegudes d'altres cantants, o d'ambdues.

Des de que va rebre la seva primera lliçó d'acordió un dia després del seu seté aniversari, ha gravat més de 150 paròdies i cançons originals. Els seus treballs li han proporcionat tres premis Grammy de nou nominacions, tres discs d'or i cinc de platí als EUA.
