From Wikipedia

"Phil Lamar makes a cameo in the video."

Ignoring the misspelling of "LaMarr", does anyone know where he appears?

I think this another instance of false information on Wikipedia. Phil's not listed on The Mothership under "Celebrity Cameos in Al's Videos."
Oh by the way, I've cracked the code.

He's the one with the powerful green ring around his finger.

Err, I mean, I have no idea. Could he be one of the business guys in the performance scenes?

I know him as a past castmember from Mad TV, but he might have done some other things too.

He does the voice of Hermes in Futurama, and was Marvin in Pulp Fiction.

:whoot: I love Hermes!! What a bizarre cameo though... B)

Does Al have some sort of fondness for Mad TV? I've noticed Mad TV castmembers have shown up in at least two videos now...

There is definitely a guy who looks somewhat like Phil Lamarr but I don't know if it's really him. Al doesn't mention anything about it in the video commentary track or on weirdal.com.

I was talking about Al with a non-Al friend of mine, and we were talking about his songs, and I mentioned this song.

She said she had misread the word "pentiums" horribly. :F
