Motto: "Till All Are Pun!"

Indeed, Weird Al Yankovic has been nominated for a star on the Walk, and should be attending a yet to be announced ceremony. Yankovic contributed the track Dare (to be Stupid) for the movie, then took over from Eric Idle as Wreck-Gar in the Transformers: Animated cartoon series.
