When it comes to lampoons, caricatures, satire, and especially parodies the most famous modern day artists include the late Leslie Nielsen and the great Weird Al. Alfred Matthew "Weird Al" Yankovic was born on October 23, 1959. He is an American singer, musician, record producer, and actor who is known for humorous songs that make light of pop culture and often parody specific songs by contemporary musical acts. This is very unique since his instrument of choice is an accordion. Here are some samples of his work.
Leslie Nielsen was a Canadian-American actor and comedian. He starred in over a hundred movies. Although he never specifically parodied Wannaska, it is rumored that this clip was filmed at Lee's Store.
Sadly, Leslie Nielsen passed away in 2010. The world awaits another Canadian-American to step up and fill his shoes. I believe he wore a pair of Deez.
ReplyDeleteThere was a rumor that Weird Al had died. But it was just a hoax.
A hoax is a humorous or malicious deception.
A croax is when you die, but everyone pretends you’re still alive.
