Watch Weird Al Parody Dramatic 'Whiplash' Scene With J.K. Simmons
Not even Oscar-nominated movies are safe from "Weird Al" Yankovic.
To hype his upcoming Mandatory Fun tour, the king of parodies spoofed acclaimed drama Whiplash, where a questionably intense bandleader (played by J.K. Simmons) pushes a young, aspiring drummer (Miles Teller) to his limits. In Weird Al's interpretation of the film, the singer/comedian needs to go H.A.M. with his accordion-playing abilities...to ridiculous results.
