Just when we were crying out for a new Weird Al parody

Sounds like a little white rapper takes himself a little too seriously.

Sorry to go

Funny how he talks about and portrays other singers in HIS songs and videos, yet doesn't want any association with weird al's video. What a tool.

I don't care what ya'll say, Eminem is awesome

I never liked Weird Al anyway, and am not amused by his dorky parodies. So, no big deal!
