Also doesn’t seem like it was paid placement

I'm not so sure on that. At the very least they paid him for the interview there, and really I think they probably just made out that they didn't find out beforehand.

It's pretty ridiculous to think that a band that's been in the business as long as Weezer has, signed to a major label like Atlantic Records, wouldn't ask for permission to use someone else's brand in one of their songs.
