Weird Al Yankovic Pleads ‘Don’t Pickaxe My Star’

by Paul Cashmere on August 28, 2018

Weird Al Yankovic has pleaded with fans to “not pickaxe my star” at the unveiling of his star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame this week.

Weird or Al (what do you refer to him as) was referencing the recent destruction of trump’s star on Hollywood Boulevard.

“Please don’t pickaxe my star,” he said. “I know it’s all the rage these days, but that’s not cool. Unless at some point in the future, I do something unfathomably monstrous and evil in which case, sure, fine, OK, go ahead.”
