As we might have already mentioned, Yankovic is the biggest-selling comedy recording artist ever. Yankovic made a name for himself for parodying the works of other musical artists. His earliest hits include "Eat It" and "Like a Surgeon", which are pastiches of Michael Jackson's "Beat It" and Madonna's "Like a Virgin", respectively. Since then, Yankovic has won five Grammy Awards and sold over 12 million albums.
