My wife found this when she was watching the Handy video: Weird Al has become very crude, he used to be pretty hilarious with his satire/parody, but the "Tacky" video (mocking "Happy") was a bit on the vulgar side. He was hilarious in the later 80s when I was a kid, now he's obviously trying to win the Brittney Spears and Miley Cyrus fans. Sorry, but you can be funny without being vulgar.

On the plus side, my wife watched a Weird Al video on her own

The only thing that comes to mind is boob jugling of the first woman (don't remember her name).

Your wife knows less than Jon Snow :D. His twerking wasn't vulgar (it was hardly twerking either), just... not elegant :D

I found the boob grab a bit much, myself. Not enough to hate the video, but I'd rate it unnecessary. It certainly qualifies at tacky, though!

Same here, I was like "Alright, that was unnecessary for a Weird Al video"

I really don't think I would consider that vulgar. The boob grab was a little bit over the top, but it still wasn't that bad. And there's nothing vulgar about the song itself.
