Music's ultimate parody writer posted to his personal Twitter and Facebook accounts that the ceremony will be taking place on August 27th at 11:30 a.m., at a location right across the street from the Chinese Theater on Hollywood Blvd.

"The time has finally come," Yankovic posted, along with the informational where/whens:

Various celebs chimed in on the announcement, all proclaiming the honor well deserved.

We're looking forward to seeing what Lin-Manuel Miranda has to say, as well.

Congrats, Mr. Yankovic!

Bleeding Cool News Editor Mary Anne Butler (Mab, for short) has been part of the fast-paced world of journalism since she was 15, getting her start in album reviews and live concert coverage for a nationally published (print) music magazine. She eventually transitioned to online media, writing for such sites as UGO/IGN, ComicsOnline, Geek Magazine, Ace of Geeks, Aggressive Comix (where she is still Editor-in-Chief), and most recently Bleeding Cool. 

Over the past 10 years, she’s built a presence at conventions across the globe as a cosplayer (occasionally), photographer (constantly), panelist and moderator (mostly), and reporter (always). 

 Interviews, reviews, observations, breaking news, and objective reporting are the name of the game for the founder of Harkonnen Knife Fight, a Dune-themed band with an international presence. 

 Though she be but little, she is fierce. #MabTheProfessional
