Al In The Tabloids

crazygurl14 · Post by **crazygurl14** » Fri Nov 03, 2006 9:28 am

I love to read gossip magizings and i've always thougth it wouold be neat to see Al in one of them. Not as the target of a nasty rumor or anything but maybe him being spotted somewhere and have a little caption by it.

But i was just wondering, has he ever been in one of those magizines

Aren't the Al Gals running some underground Al show over there on that thread. You don't get much more decadent Al goodness anywhere else... They love him, they post pictures and sometimes even the captions are G-rated...

You mean a tabloid like the National Enquirer? eeeeww! Never!

Or maybe just a celeb fluff mag? He was in In Touch back when he was photographed with Suzanne, Bela and Bo for "Pets And Their Celebrities."

Al doesn't have to appear in ALL forms of media. He can skip the tabloids (except for the Midnight Star, of course)

But...the tabloids don't make stuff up...do they?

Of course they don't. I received assurances on that very subject from the alien from outer space who's been sleeping in my car.

I hope I never see Al in a tabloid magazine. The fluff ones like OE mentioned are ok, just no National Enquirer stories, please.

Now, you see, if you'd seen Men in Black, you would realize that the tabloids are the only reliable newspapers out there.

You see? I rest my case.

The fluff ones are okay, I guess, but nothing like national enquirer please. I'm happy Al's been out of those tabloids for so long as some of the headlines on tabloids are just rediculous.

Except for the Midnight Star.

Al in the tabloids, you say? Well, you've come to the RIGHT PLACE...this n00b has been reading Weekly World News (buying it, no less!) continuously since 2001. And yes, Al has appeared in them...but sparingly, to say the least.

I recall that in a 2004 issue, it mentioned that

(Some other celebrity whose name I cannot recall) and Weird Al Yankovic were both high school valedictorians.

Various names in WWS have also been written to reflect his...they do that with 19th-century authors, mostly, eg "Dorian Wilde". But I recall that there have been a few Alfredo or Alberto "El Estrano" Iancovicos over the years.

Many of their stories are directly taken from the Midnight Star when they're experiencing writers' block.

But, um...Dr. Rosencrantz (was it?) and Dr. White want to talk with me now, so I leave you.

Who is Weird Al Yankovic?

they could have maybe mentioned he has a new cd or projuect comming out.. Even the gossip mags have a page or two of that kind of stuff.
I would hope he's never the target of some nasty rumor.

But as long as theres people like Paris Hilton and Britney Spears we'll never have to worry about that
