Ahead of a Syracuse, New York, stop on his “Bigger & Weirder” tour, Yankovic revealed to Syracuse.com in an interview published this week that he was offered “a nice pile of money” to appear in a commercial for business-focused software, but he backed out once he realized the ad would involve AI. “I’m not a fan of AI,” he said.


Terrible movie though
You shut your whore mouth
We must have watched a different movie.
I watched to 2022 movie “Weird: The AL Yankovic Story” It was crap, it would have been much better off as an honest biography.
Up until this comment, I thought everyone was talking about U/H/F
A few years ago I saw an interview with Emo Phillips and he held up a royalty check he’d just gotten in the mail for his appearance in that movie. It was for $1.37 or some such. He called UHF “the gift that keeps on giving”.
What do you mean? They very faithfully recreated his rise to fame exactly as it happened.
I was there as it happened, perhaps my memory is a little fuzzy.
Yup. I’ll miss him after his assassination.
Weird. I watched that same movie and it wasn’t crap. It was brilliant and entertaining.
An honest biography would be worth watching, but infinitely more boring.
“Banned from community” for terrible taste in movies? Bit harsh…
It was definitely weird
