Here's another one for the "What are they smoking at VH1?" file.

Quoth VH1:

"staring the infamous Weird Al Yankivic"

Yes, staring Weird Al Yankivic certainly is infamous.

Hey Dave, He's using pre-recorded interviews again. You don't think he'd use *your* interview, would he? It would be kinda nice to see what he'd do with it and might explain why they never aired the tatoo special

Wow! We get to hear Al classics like "The White Boy Polka" and "I'm Fat"!

VH1: "Featured Artists: Britney Spears, Justin Timberlake and Eminem"

Not known if that's interviews, jokes, or ruined videos, or songs. My guess is on interviews although that Britney Spears one looks strange.

Definitely the interviews.

Using previously recorded interviews with Britney, Justin, Emenim and many other pop culture icons

Since this is only going to be an hour long, there better be a lack of commercials.

Another VH-1-ism:

ever so sweet Amish Paradise,"

Ever so sweet ??? Funny, yes, but sweet??

Too bad we can't start a "Spot The VH-1 Boo-Boo" contest

Second cousin twice removed of Wierd Al Yankovich.

They're all from Alabama where that sort of thing is tolerated.

VH1 presents a one hour special through the always wacky world of popular music staring the infamous Weird Al Yankivic. Al gives his unique, comic view on everything music as he celebrates the release of his new album with a twisted look at the current state of music.

Using previously recorded interviews with Britney, Justin, Emenim and many other pop culture icons, Al gives his own irreverent spin to the "out-of-context" rock star interview. Al's take on what's happening in music news, who's dating who, back stage brawls and music star melt downs.

Yankivic? Emenim?

This is a music network that wrote this, right??
