Musician and parodist “Weird Al” Yankovic will visit THE LATE LATE SHOW with CRAIG FERGUSON to perform the song “TMZ” off his GRAMMY® Award-nominated album, “Alpocalypse,” Thursday, Feb. 9 (12:37-1:37 AM, ET/PT) on the CBS Television Network. This performance marks the first time Yankovic has performed “TMZ” on late-night television.
Three-time GRAMMY® Award winner “Weird Al” Yankovic is known for his humorous song parodies which make light of popular culture. “Alpocalypse” has been nominated for two Grammy Awards for the 2012 ceremonies – for Best Comedy Album and Best Short For Video for the “Perform This Way” music video. The song “TMZ” parodies the Taylor Swift song “You Belong to Me.”
In addition to his performance, Yankovic will sit down as a guest on THE LATE LATE SHOW with CRAIG FERGUSON. Also visiting the show on Feb. 9 is actress Lisa Kudrow, host of the television series “Who Do You Think You Are?”
THE LATE LATE SHOW with CRAIG FERGUSON regularly airs weeknights (12:37-1:37 AM, ET/PT) following broadcasts of the "Late Show with David Letterman" on CBS. THE LATE LATE SHOW is executive produced by Peter Lassally and is a 2009 Peabody Award recipient.
