Alfred "Weird Al" Yankovic is an American singer-songwriter, music producer, accordionist, actor, voice actor, comedian, writer, satirist, and parodist who is known for his humorous songs that make light of popular culture and often parody specific songs by contemporary musical acts.

For Disney, he appeared as himself in the 1998 television film Safety Patrol, as well as sang the introduction song of the 1996 Hollywood Pictures film Spy Hard. He has also done several voice-over roles, guest-starring as the singing minstrel in the Lilo & Stitch: The Series episode "Tank", Probabilitor the Annoying in the Gravity Falls episode "Dungeons, Dungeons, & More Dungeons", Dr. Screwball Jones in Wander Over Yonder, and Preston Change-O in the Star vs. the Forces of Evil episode "Trickstar". Beginning in 2016, he voiced Milo Murphy, the title character in Milo Murphy's Law.

Prior to all of his above-listed roles, his song "Eat It" (a parody of Michael Jackson's "Beat It") was the subject of a music video featured in the DTV TV special Doggone Valentine, and "I Want a New Duck" (a parody of Huey Lewis and the News' "I Want a New Drug") was used as the opening and closing song for Down and Out with Donald Duck. Al himself also appeared in "Captain EE-I-EE-I-O", a one-shot comic featured in the January 1993 issue of Disney Adventures.

His cover of the George of the Jungle theme was used in the opening credits sequence of the movie adaptation of the TV show, and he was also referenced in the Lizzie McGuire episode "Bunkies". Additionally, the Randy Cunningham: 9th Grade Ninja episode "M-M-M-my Bologna" is named after one of his songs.
