Since Weird Al got his first number 1 album, let's mention something about him...
The music video to "Fat" him a Grammy Award for "Best Concept Music Video" (this award was later replaced by the Best Short Form Music Video and Best Long Form Music Video)
Also, one of that fat backup dancers was just the pizza delivery guy. He delivered pizza to the casting office right before shooting started. The producer thought that he looked perfect for the part and offered him a spot as one of the dancers right then and there. All the other dancers simply responded to a newspaper advertisement that read "Very Fat Dancers Needed".
