Weird Al Yankovic: Please don’t pickaxe my Walk of Fame star


After decades of cranking out hit parody songs, Weird Al Yankovic finally got a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. While giving his acceptance speech, the comedian and musician had one simple request.

In a video captured by Variety, Yankovic asked, “Please don’t pickaxe my star. I know it’s all the rage these days, but that’s not cool.”

Yankovic is referring to Donald Trump’s star that’s been vandalized several times, most recently when it was attacked and removed by a man with a pickaxe.

However, Yankovic did have one big caveat during his request. He said, “Unless at some point in the future, I do something unfathomably monstrous and evil in which case, sure, fine, OK, go ahead.”
