Weekend reading: Andrew WK on Cartoon Network, “Total Eclipse of the Heart” with new lyrics




Andrew WK is so crazy.

The pop metal singer who wrote “Party Hard,” “It’s Time to Party” and “Party til You Puke,” is now hosting a kids show for the Cartoon Network. The show focuses on explosions. Seriously.

The Wall Street Journal gave that odd bit of news its usual business spin, saying the singer has reinvented himself again — he’s also done motivational speaking and popped up on MTV2 shows like “Your Friend, Andrew WK.”

Read about Andrew WK’s latest career move and more below.
