As a child, I grew up watching The Muppets. I love Kermit The Frog and I especially love Miss Piggy. In honor of NY Fashion Week, Miss Piggy made a special appearance at the Opening Ceremony fete at the Ace Hotel last week and was kind enough to answer a few questions exclusively for the blogging community!
In this interview, Miss Piggy talks about her new film THE MUPPETS that opens this Thanksgiving.
Here are some of the questions and Miss Piggy’s answers below…..
Q: What is Disney’s “The Muppets” about?
A: It’s moi’s story, of course. It’s about how I am working in Paris and Kermit and the other Muppets come over and beg me to come home. I run the complete gamut of acting—from smiling to frowning. It’s got Oscar® written all over it—and I’m not just talking de La Renta. I have heard rumors that there’s another storyline in the movie that doesn’t involve moi, but who really cares about that?
Q: What is your role in Disney’s “The Muppets?
A: Moi plays moi. It’s a casting no-brainer. Naturally, all of Hollywood’s top actresses tested for the part—Roberts, Streep, Winslet, Jolie, Bullock—but in the end they decided that there is only one moi and I’m it!
In the movie, I portray the plus-size fashion editor of Vogue Paris—I’m in charge of a whole office full of editors who all want to look just like moi. But of course, Kermit wants me back with the Muppets to save the day and put on some big show. Can I resist? Well, see the movie and find out.
Q: What do you do in your free time?
A: Shop. Eat Chocolate. Pose for photographers. Rinse. Repeat. I’m a diva. I have people to schedule my free time. You have no idea how time consuming that is.
Q: What made you agree to star in Disney’s “The Muppets”?
A: It was written especially for moi. And they said I could keep all the shoes.
Q: What is the funniest scene in the film?
A: The scene where Kermie begs me to come back to Hollywood with him is the funniest scene. I’m hilarious; and the frog isn’t half bad either. There are so many very funny scenes in the film… and guess what, moi is in all of them! Coincidence? I don’t think so.
These were just a some of the questions from the interview that I wanted to share. Remember, The Muppets opens in theaters everywhere on November 23rd!
