Divine Swine Shines in 'Muppets' Wizard' - Miss Piggy Speaks Out

http://tv.zap2it.com/tveditorial/tve_main/1,1002,271|95021|1|,00.html

Zap2it: Would you please give us your perspective on what this "Wizard of Oz" is about?
Miss Piggy: It's about a beautiful witch and the scarecrow she has the hots for. Of course, moi plays the witch and Kermie plays the scarecrow, and needless to say, we set the screen on fire, Oh, there's some other people in the movie, but I didn't pay a lot of attention to them.

Zap2it: You are so dazzling as the four witches; why not go whole hog, so to speak, and play Dorothy as well?

Miss Piggy: It is true that moi is magnifique playing all four witches, a feat which makes me eligible and a virtual lock to win four -- count 'em, four -- Emmys. As for playing Dorothy, moi considered this, but I felt it was important to give a struggling youngster like Ashanti a shot at the big time. And besides, it was too much work.

I love Frank Oz!
Miss Piggy: Moi is very selective about the movies I make, not only to ensure the quality my fans expect, but because development is so much more fun than making the movies: You have lunch and dinner with stars and directors and the studio pays. But yes, I am planning to star in a new Broadway production of "Who's Afraid of Virginia Ham?"

LOL! re: Divine Swine Shines in 'Muppets' Wizard' - Miss Piggy Speaks Out
Thanks for the link Craig. I love the muppets. This film looks fun. My favorite will always be the Frog Prince with Sweetums.

I love Toto too.

But WHAT IS UP WITH ASHANTI'S WIG?! It's driving me nuts!
