I hate to say this, but this one is too easy.

Queen's Bohemian Rhapsody became Al's Bohemian Polka.

Just for kicks, let's match Erik Estrada.

which also had Reese Witherspoon who was in Aerosmith's Crazy, Cryin and other videos
whose song "Livin on the Edge" became "Livin in the Fridge" under Al's parody spell.
(Notice I didn't use an SNL link although I could have.)

I used Leonardo DiCaprio in my connection for Martin Scorcese on the previous page. But if you want another:
