Weird Al and Celebrity Friends Spoof “Happy,” Get “Tacky”
 |
Somehow, Weird Al Yankovic made a complete parody of Pharrell ‘s Oscar-nominated-yet-doomed-against-Frozen hit song “Happy” without either involving the Despicable Me Minions or Pharrell’s giant Sgt. Slaughter hat. Still, he has a few minions of his own, from Jack Black to Aisha Tyler (thankfully, while Chris Hardwick produced the video he is not one of the many cameos on camera).
And I admit it – I’ve done some of the things mentioned in the song. How many are you guilty of?
