You Have to See ‘Weird Al’ Yankovic & Will Forte Belting ‘Pink Pony Club’ and ‘Soda Pop’ From ‘KPop Demon Hunters’ at Jason Sudeikis Benefit

“Weird Al” Yankovic, actor and SNL alum Will Forte, and Ted Lasso stars Cristo Fernández and Brendan Hunt helped Jason Sudeikis raise $1.1 million at the ninth annual THUNDERGONG! charity concert by performing two monster Billboard Hot 100 hits. And we’ve got videos.

Sudeikis and his longtime friend Billy Brimblecom, the executive director of the Steps of Faith Foundation, produced the concert, which took place at the Uptown Theater in Kansas City, Missouri, on Nov. 8 and supported the nonprofit’s mission to provide prosthetic car and comfort to amputees needing financial support.

Yankovic and Forte performed Chappell Roan’s “Pink Pony Club” — which topped Billboard‘s Pop Airplay chart and hit No. 5 on the Hot 100.

Weird Al and Forte were then joined by Fernández, who played Dani Rojas on Ted Lasso, and Brendan Hunt, who co-created the hit Apple TV+ series and starred as Coach Beard, to put their own spin on “Soda Pop,” Saja Boys’ big number in the Netflix animated hit KPop Demon Hunters. That tune also reached No. 5 on the Hot 100.

Music artists Waxahatchee, Kevin Morby and actor/comedian Sam Richardson also took part.

Sudeikis and Brimblecom founded THUNDERGONG! in 2017, and the event has since produced a number of viral videos. In 2023, Sudeikis and Ted Lasso castmate Hannah Waddingham sang Bradley Cooper and Lady Gaga‘s “Shallow” duet from A Star Is Born, and last year, Yankovic and Forte covered another Roan hit, “Hot to Go.”

Steps of Faith will post more videos on its YouTube page in the coming days.
