Oh, Kermie!
"Muppets"
star Kermit the Frog has wasted no time moving on from his breakup with
longtime girlfriend Miss Piggy and is now dating an ABC marketer named Denise,according to a story in People magazine.
"He calls
her his girlfriend," an anonymous (of course) source told People.
Veteran Muppet
observers could have predicted this.
Kermit and Miss Piggy, who were together for close to 40 years, have been slinging veiled insults at
each othersince the breakup was announced last month -- perhaps not so
coincidentally in conjunction with the production of their new ABC show,
"The Muppets."
"Dating moi
is like flying close to the sun," Miss Piggy said at the Television
Critics Association gathering in early August. "It was inevitable that
Kermit would drop down to the ground while I stayed in the heavens."
In response,
Kermit -- who is producing Miss Piggy's "Up Late with Miss Piggy,"
the show-within-a-show of "The Muppets" -- noted that he was trying
to stay above the fray.
"We can be
professionals. Well, one of us can. Me," he told the Guardian.
Apparently Miss
Piggy has also engaged in diva behavior on set. Her complaints won Kermit a $20
bet.
