Miss PIggy is big, blonde and beautiful on late night TV!

Yes, the diva has it, and she's not afraid to show it off! With the season two Muppet Show DVD set officially released to the slobbering population of muppet geek---er, fans, we're all aglow here at Swinehearts, dreaming of getting those DVDs into our eager hands. In the meantime, Piggy, Gonzo and Rizzo have all been seen in TV land (Note: Not TVLand) promoting the release, and causing general glee (Note: Not General Lee).

In the first appearance that we've witnessed, the fabulous Miss Piggy paid an extremely friendly visit to "The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson" last Wednesday night... or very early Thursday morning if you're inclined to split hairs. Now, this is just one person's humble opinion, but that was perhaps the best interview with Miss Piggy, and perhaps any muppet in years. She was glorious; she was gorgeous; she was witty and charming. She played to adults. Miss Piggy has never been on Sesame Street, and it shows. Barring muttered comments from a disgruntled frog, who has asked to remain nameless, we haven't heard much negativity about Piggy's flirtatious behaviour or Eric's performance.

I speak for myself, and surely for others when I say that Piggy's natural blonde beauty is simply breathtaking, head and shoulders (Note: Not Head and Shoulders) above the ditzy platinum look she's been sporting lately. I don't often criticize Piggy's looks... unlike Kermit, I don't like being chased and tackled by a lady pig, but looking back at the movies of the past, the sweet golden blonde that is almost certainly Piggy's natural hair colour is so much more appealing than the blatantly false (or faux, as Piggy would say) plastic platinum.


I can't be alone in thinking that she doesn't need anything else making her unlifelike? After all, even Craigy himself stumbled into a landmine when he distinguished between a live audience and a muppet audience. (Don't panic. Piggy set him straight... before leaving him bent...over.)

For your Piggy viewing pleasure....(Kermit, don't point that scrunchy face this way!), we present to you the interview in its entirety, so that you too may bask in the radiance of the one, the only, Ms. Miss Piggy!
