Heh, thats cool with a question devoted to him. This reminds me, a long time ago on the Millionare show, a guy came up to the hot seat, and Regis said he thought he was Weird Al. And he kept going on and on "I thought it was THE Weird Al Yankovic." It was pretty funny, because the guy looked nothing like him.

Al had a brief mention on Super Millionaire game show tonight on ABC. The contestant was up to the $50,000 level and the question was:
Which of the following songs was not the target of a parody by musical jokester "Weird Al" Yankovic?
a. Gangster's Paradise
b. My Sharona
c. Like a Virgin
d. I Will Survive

The contestant had to use his last "regular" lifeline! He had to phone a friend! The friend got it right quickly and he won the $50,000. I believe he is on his way up the money ladder on the next episode. He was at the $500,000 level at the end of tonight's episode.
The answer by the way is very obvious. I wish I was a contestant and had that easy of a question!!!
Regis did not meniton meeting Al on his Live show.

Well, it's a trick question. The Coolio song was called Gangsta's Paradise, not Gangster's Paradise. People get shot for spelling it that way.

The answer is very obvious to us Al fans, but there are many people who still think he's only done "Eat It" or doesn't even know he exist.

We ALREADY went over this. Demented Dustin just misspelled it. The show had it right.

Beat It, I've figured out, would be way too easy on that question.

Sorry, my bad.

Yeah, it's pretty easy. Someone should've called Al for "Phone a Friend".

yeah i know.

there was once a tennis question on Millionaire about Bobby Riggs, and he (Jon Stewart i think) wanted to phone him up.

In these shows, you pick a list of six friends that you can phone up, and they're all in the studio.
