Legendary comedian, “WEIRD AL” Yankovic has teamed up with American Greetings to launch a SmashUp Video Card, uniquely personalized to over 1,000 names.
The SmashUp is available through the American Greetings and Blue Mountain websites as well as through the SmashUps app and Blue Mountain ecards app for iPhone and Android.
When the video begins, a subdued Yankovic is seated in a dark leather chair at a traditional desk, speaking directly to the camera with a personalized message to the recipient. But not to fear, the vibe quickly changes, and Weird Al is soon joined by a pop-up barbershop quartet, in signature red striped vests, bow ties and handlebar mustaches. Within seconds, Yankovic switches sets again and appears with a gospel choir with balloons, colorful confetti and a larger-than-life, personalized cake. The quick-moving, hilarious video is sure to make anyone laugh and want to play it again and again. And the best part is the video can be customized specifically for the loved ones in your life, with Yankovic personally saying their name from one of more than 1,000 options.
SmashUps are available on www.americangreetings.com, www.bluemountain.com, and on the SmashUps and Blue Mountain ecard app for iPhone and Android. They can be shared via email, text or on social media.
Membership costs range from $6.99-$39.99, depending on the length of membership.
