"White & Nerdy" is the second single from "Weird Al" Yankovic's album Straight Outta Lynwood, which was released in 2006.

The song both satirizes and celebrates nerd culture, as recited by the subject, who cannot "roll with the gangstas" because he is "just too white and nerdy".

It includes many references to activities stereotypically associated with nerds and/or white people, such as collecting comic books and action figures, being fluent in JavaScript and Klingon, editing Wikipedia, and playing Dungeons & Dragons.

"White & Nerdy" was certified platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA), becoming Yankovic's first single to achieve this feat.

The video, loosely parodying the video for Chamillionaire's "Ridin'" and following the song's lyrics, shows Yankovic, dressed as a stereotypical nerd with a buttoned-up polo shirt, dress slacks, and horn-rimmed glasses attempting to fit in with the "gangsters" (the first ones being Keegan-Michael Key and Jordan Peele),[2] in a blue 1967 Chevy Impala convertible but instead either scaring them away, causing them to flip him the bird, or to direct him away from their group and instead towards a herd of other "nerds".

One scene shows Yankovic vandalizing the Wikipedia page for Atlantic Records, replacing it with the words (in a large font size) "YOU SUCK!

", referencing his then-recent trouble with the company in getting permission to release "You're Pitiful", a parody of James Blunt's song "You're Beautiful".

The video shows a fictional Trivial Pursuit card, with questions that include the location of the largest ball of twine (a reference to his song "The Biggest Ball of Twine in Minnesota)", on what page Harry Potter would die in the next book, and the number of Wicket men there are on a 43-Man Squamish team (there are five).

[2] Judy Tenuta, a regular on The Weird Al Show who also previously appeared in "Headline News", plays the woman who receives a surge protector as a present.

It was his first public live performance of the song; various background vocals from the original recording are played to allow him time to breathe during the fast-paced lyrics.

Since 2007, Yankovic has performed the song on each one of his tours,[10] entering the stage on a Segway and wearing his hoodie and bandana from the video rather than using his "nerd" look.
