Miss Piggy: I bathe Kermit

Miss Piggy gives Kermit the Frog sponge baths “when he gets dry”.

The pair recently made their big screen comeback, starring in The Muppets. Kermit and Miss Piggy have been in show business for many years and realise it is important to look good.

During an interview for UK TV show Daybreak, Kermit insisted he is “ageing gracefully”. He admitted the only problem he battles with his appearance is “trying to stay moist”.

Miss Piggy then cut into the conversation to reveal how she ensures Kermit retains his good looks. She also insists that he shouldn’t go under the surgeon’s knife to delay the signs of ageing.

“I give him sponge baths sometimes when he gets dry,” she revealed. “He doesn’t need [cosmetic surgery]. He looks great!”

Kermit was clearly upset that his on-off girlfriend had divulged such personal information in public. “Miss Piggy, please!” Kermit cried in embarrassment.

The pair were then quizzed about the status of their romantic relationship.

When asked if they still had feelings for each other when they worked on the new movie, Kermit made it clear that the passion is alive.

“It started out as a spark, there was a spark, then there was a lot of smoke and then it was a virtual barbecue,” he explained.

The Muppets also stars Jason Segel and Amy Adams.
