I thought there was a RS thread (not Rolling Stone) but I couldn't find it.
Saw this in the theater before "Exodus" was shown.

Barry's? Hmmm, that takes me back to their Radio Row daze in NY where I drooled all over the Collins gear on consignment. <sigh> Rat Shack, from radios to toys, and they still have blank stares... foo.

I think the weirdness of this stems from Weird Al having a flourishing comeback in the 2010s, and Radio Shack basically on life support and broke.

If RS has money to hire celebrities to sell stuff then i don't think they're as close to closing as they say they are.

Weird Al Yankovic is a celebrity? Are you sure about that? (Besides, maybe he needs the money and is or was working cheap... )

I think so, albeit minor celebrity unlike someone like Katy Perry, JZ, Lady Gaga. His latest album, Mandatory Fun actually made Billboard at No. 1

After more than 30 years on the charts, comedian-singer "Weird Al" Yankovic earns his first No. 1 album on the Billboard 200, as "Mandatory Fun" debuts atop the list. The album is the first comedy set to top the chart since 1963, and logs the largest sales week for a comedy album since 1994.
"Mandatory Fun" was released July 15 through Way Moby and RCA Records, and sold 104,000 copies in the week ending July 20, according to Nielsen SoundScan. It was promoted by a well-receiveddaily viral video campaign that launched Monday, July 14. Starting with his parody of Pharrell's "Happy," Yankovic released eight music videos for the album through the week on various sites, like The Wall Street Journal, Yahoo, Nerdist, College Humor and YouTube
