I do love Miss Piggy.
And Miss Piggy’s Guide to Life certainly has some memorable gems:
- Beauty is in the eye of the beholder & it may be necessary from time to time to give a stupid or misinformed beholder a black eye
- Of course women don’t work as hard as men. We get it right the first time!
But, is the bossy, self-absorbed diva really the best choice?
Anyway, it has been confirmed that Kermit the Frog will be in attendance. 🙂
Via Breitbart: Miss Piggy to receive honorary ‘feminist’ trailblazer award
Famed Muppet character Miss Piggy is scheduled to receive her first award from the Elizabeth A. Sackler Center for Feminist Art at the Brooklyn Museum on June 4.
The annual awards ceremony, inaugurated in 2012, celebrates women who have broken gender barriers and continue to make outstanding contributions in their diverse fields of work.
“Moi is thrilled-but frankly, not surprised to be receiving this Sackler Center First Award,” Miss Piggy “said in a press release. “It is truly wonderful to be celebrated and share this honor with fellow legends, role models, and pioneers of female fabulosity. We rock!”
While Miss Piggy is not a typical nominee for a First Award, Board Chair and founder of the awards Elizabeth Sackler insists she embodies enough “spirit, determination and grit” to make her a perfect candidate….
“Miss Piggy is inspirational for young and old alike: she confronts obstacles with strength, sometimes grit, but she has a wonderful soft side – and of course, enormous confidence,” she said.
Previous recipients of the First Awards are Associate Justice Sandra O’Connor, Connie Chung, and Anita F. Hill to name a few….
Moi is finally getting an award!! Oh, I'm so excited! Eat your heart out, Meryl. https://t.co/oTGUjwJ4r1

If memory serves, Miss Piggy won a well deserved beauty contest many years ago.
Isn’t this Islamophobic? Giving an award to a pig. And named Piggy. Does the award need a trigger warning? Is it a microaggression? Will it ruin Obama/Kerry Iran deal? What does CAIR think? Will the UN Human Rights Commission file a complaint? Pigs may fly, but award for Piggy?
LOL! Oh, the horror of it all.
So true, Alain41! What I’m curious about is what Kermie thinks. It’s not easy being green. “Hiii—-yah!”
