  • In this episode of Face to Face with "Weird Al" Yankovic, Al interviews A-list actor Denzel Washington and Hollywood starlet Megan Fox. With hard-hitting questions and a no nonsense approach, he attempts to draw out the most insightful and seldom seen aspects of these two normally very private celebrities.

    Denzel Washington should start wearing a shirt that says, "I am not Ryan Reynolds."

    When I was about 11 or 12, I went to his concert the night his parents passed away. He found out right before he was supposed to go on stage. But despite that, he still came out and played an amazing show. Unfortunately, I couldn't meet him after the show. But I am amazed he could actually do the show. It shows how great a performer he is.

      I read a quote on wikipedia from him about it (specifically about why he didn't cancel his tour). Apparently continuing to perform was a good distraction from his sorrow. It was 2 hours a night that he couldn't dwell on it because he was too busy.

    I love how Al takes common phrases and terms that everyone misuses and points them out. 99.99% of people don't even think about the things they're saying. He seems to have a more literal mind that can recognize incongruencies in things most people take for granted. That's one of the reasons why he's such a great comedy lyricist.
