Miss Piggy, domesticated swine superstar and former partner of a sad amphibian named Kermit, would like her fans to know that she does not need a man in her life. And though, yes, she is technically a puppet incapable of speaking, moving, or fucking—she literally needs a man (she’s performed by one named Eric Jacobsen) to come “alive”—let’s pretend for a few moments that none of that is true.
In an interview with SiriusXM’s Denise Albert and Melissa Musen Gerstein, the pig said:
“Look, who knows what’s going to happen in the future with moi and Kermit... I know one thing is for certain. I do not need a man in my life.”
