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.
My first thought, have enjoyed him since the UHF movie(always enjoyed those spoof type ones and it was/is fantastic). He always seemed like a great person from anything I’ve read, I feel bad that I probably missed my one time seeing him in concert recently.
I’ve never seen him live either, sadly. If you haven’t seen it, I highly recommend the recent movie he did with Daniel Radcliffe starring, it’s excellent
Wait he’s in a newer one with Harry Potter? Fuck yes. I actually haven’t seen Radcliffe in much else except Extras which he was hilarious in (probably mid Harry Potter movies), actually one of my favourite bits from that show.
I appreciate you telling me, I’ll have to check it out. Being old I miss a lot of random things now but would never want to miss a good laugh which Weird Al never disappointed with.
