Weird Al Yankovic is celebrating his 66th birthday today. As a number of online tributes attest, he is one of the most acclaimed singers of his generation.
Popular singer-songwriter Weird Al Yankovic (Fat, Eat It, ...) has always liked to keep a bit of himself hidden from view. At 66th birthday, he remains a man of many facets.
Yankovic, a cultural icon
