Description

Weird Al Yankovic performs Fat Live in Concert during the Bigger & Weirder 2025 Tour in Austin, Texas. I encourage every Weird Al fan to get out to see him in concert to experience the brilliance of a Weird Al Yankovic concert in person! It is truly something to see! But if you can't, I hope this video allows you to enjoy a part of the entertaining show he and his extremely talented band put on for fans on the Bigger & Weirder 2025 Tour!

"Fat" was Al Yankovic's second parody of a Jackson song, the first being "Eat It", a parody of Jackson's "Beat It". "Fat" is the first song on Yankovic's Even Worse album. Yankovic was inspired to create "Fat" while watching the "Bad" music video, when he had an epiphany that a parody of that song titled "Fat" would be a good sequel to "Eat It" (a previous Weird Al Michael Jackson parody). While watching the "Bad" video, he imagined an obese version of himself trying to get through the turnstiles on a subway, and resolved that he would do it. The video won a Grammy Award for Best Concept Music Video in 1988.

When performing in concert, Yankovic wears a costume that makes his body appear pudgy, along with a mask that makes his face look fat. Due to undergoing laser vision correction surgery, he no longer needs to wear glasses, though he wears glasses with non-prescription plastic lenses in order to help hold on the mask.
