Weird Al Yankovic Involved in Fender-Bender

He might say many jokes when he's on the stage but this time we bet he's not joking. Weird Al Yankovic, an American  singer, musician, actor, satirist, parodist, songwriter, music producer, accordionist and television producer, was unlucky enough to be involved in a minor car accident in Hollywood, last week, TMZ reported.

Yankovic's vehicle was part of a three-car fender-bender but luckily no one was hurt. In fact, it was more like a chain reaction as it follows: a taxi rear-ended a car that rear-ended Weird Al. Therefore, as you see, the Hollywood star was not (apparently) guilty for the accident.

So far we don't know whether he suddenly braked which might have caused the fender-bender or if the other drivers didn't keep the right distance between the cars.  But one thing is sure: the drivers involved in the minor accident exchanged information before leaving as witnesses claim.  More importantly, a witness at the scene said that Weird Al was especially cool, calm and collected after the crash. He was even in the mood to wave to his fans...

Yankovic is best known to the public for his humorous lyrics  that often parody specific songs by contemporary musical acts. Besides singing, Yankovic has written and starred in his own film, UHF, and his own television show, The Weird Al Show and directed music videos for himself and other artists. That's why, we are extremely curious to see if the accident he's been through will be the inspiration for his next funny song... or for his next show.
