The Most Muppety Time of the Year

Ah-heh! We stumbled across this footage (Thanks TP) of our favourite Pig and Frog rehearsing at the Rockefeller Centre before their gig later tonight...Seems that they have their body-guards close on 'hand' in the video, but ignore those bearded-weirdoes and watch our beloved weirdoes instead! Gonzo and Rizzo have wonderful voices for the song, but it becomes a perfect moment when all the others join them. I mean just LOOK at that hat! Those gloves! That coat! Those cuffs! (For anyone interested...an imitation of this coat is already on sale here...Get ahead of the trend, young fashionettas.)

P.S. The frog looks VERY snuggleable in that winter coat with the orange hood...

Something about a face and a book?

Scooter! Have you been uploading private holiday snaps of Pig and Frog huggies onto Facebook again!?

Actually, no, honestly, Boss, it wasn't him...It was, in fact, the official Mupepts Studio facebook page which has been steadily uploading a bundle of cute, Christmasy Kermit (Kristmassy Cermit?) pictures onto their page. Click here to become a fan and gain access to some old and some new pictures of the green one!

Strictly Kerm Dancing

Ooh, and seems that last weekend the simply lovely Laila Rouass (there are a LOT of vowels in that name, by the way...would someone please pass over the Scrabble board) *ahem*...that the lovely Laila claimed Miss Piggy was her inspiration, her muse, her hero, her idol, that she worships the very ground she walks on that--...Okay, so, she basically said that Miss Piggy was her inspiration for some sort of tango, but that's practically the same thing.

Laila, of Footballers' Wives fame (that's Soccer-Players' Girlfriends, to Americans), said: "My inspiration is coming from Miss Piggy, actually, that's who my character is." She later said, "You've got to project and really overdo it." Which I suppose means...she likes to *ahem* ham it up?

Still, it was cute for Piggy to be remembered as the fierce, over-the-top, tangoing diva of her day. Plus, it takes two to tango...so Kermit, watch out.

See the original report here.

I Believe in Romance

Today saw the première of Kermit and sweet Tiffany Thornton's music video, I Believe, and far from the typical Muppet fare of guest-star meets Kermit, falls in love, and they sing about tadpoles and fish together (*cough* Julie Andrews, you know who you are. *cough*) Within this beautiful little Christmas song, Kermit remains devoted to his sweetheart...carefully writing a name tag addressed to his dearest.

The Show Must Dion

Thought you'd "Celine" it all? (A painful pun, but segues nicely) Apparently we havn't yet, as Miss Piggy reminds the delicious Dion to next time maybe...put some clothes on?

But seriously (serious? really? ahhaaahaaahaaha!) Shhh. But seriously, Celine Dion stunned the nation once again the other night with her amazing talent, her graceful heart (which will, by the way, go on), and her marvelous selection of wardrobe. She was hosting something of an informal interview to a room packed with celebrities wishing to know about her life from golf, to Christmas, to Vegas and back again.

Her final ques-dion (there's another) came from truely the world's greatest diva, Miss Piggy, who thanked her for warming the audience for her return.

Dion seemed delighted to see the only super-star who could hold a candle to her divadom, and it was delightful to see Miss Piggy back on British TV.

This video was provided by MPiggyClips of the YouTube Empire, a mysterious benefactor who has provided the youtube and Piggy-loving community with a monolyth of MissPiggyClips! Thanks!

Merry Kermistmas

We found this image lurking about the web, and thought it summed up our feelings perfectly. Years of magical moments and ushy gushy memories for the frog and the pig to recall upon...

Merry Christmas from the Swinehearts Team!
