“Weird Al” Announces Australia/New Zealand Dates

“Weird Al” is continuing to support his 14th studio album, 2014’s Mandatory Fun – his first No. 1 album in the U.S. and the first comedy album to ever debut at the top of the Nielsen SoundScan albums chart.

The hilarious dose of weirdness, which picked up a Grammy Award for best comedy album, includes parodies of “Blurred Lines” by Robin Thicke, “Fancy” by Iggy Azalea, “Royals” by Lorde, “Radioactive” by Imagine Dragons, and “Happy” by Pharrell Williams.
