International porcine princess Miss Piggy has been a hot topic for decades now. Since breaking onto the scene in 1976 alongside her lesser-known Muppet costars, the world’s premier pig has become a critical darling of stage and screen, a prolific recording artist, and a bestselling author.
Piggy has seen a resurgence amongst the youth after the TikTok-driven success of her critically acclaimed single, a Spotify Session cover of FKA twigs’ emotional masterpiece “Cellophane”.
Her cover has been used as a sound on tens of thousands of videos on the platform:
@knowyourmeme The most heart-wrenching sound on TikTok… #didntidoitforyou #letmedoitforyou #misspiggy #muppets #trendingsound #sounds #trending #viral #memes #explained #fkatwigs #cellophane ♬ original sound – Know Your Meme
Naturally, an accomplished woman seeing a popularity spike will elicit criticism and rumors from the public; that’s just the state of the patriarchal society we live in. This time, that magnifying glass scrutiny has manifested as speculation on her possible journey with plastic surgery.
How about we take this to the next level?

The conjecture immediately sparked fierce debate. While some fervently argue that the hammy icon has made more than a few visits to Dr. Zizmor, many are saying she’s simply grown in beauty over time.
Both sides are deeply entrenched:
And she’s been very transparent with her journey. Stop attacking women https://t.co/vxWBfEzKqZ

Attacking a successful performer, entrepreneur, and activist like Miss Piggy for her appearance is disgusting. She’s made her money and can spend it as she pleases and guess what? She looks amazing. https://t.co/lvLTn5PRsw

Don’t forget skin rejuvenation.

All this talk about cosmetic surgery and nothing about the fact that Kermit emotionally manipulated her into getting it. https://t.co/tpiLBhpbYR

Keep Miss Piggy out your fuckin mouth. She is a white passing black woman that aged well. Let her be great! https://t.co/wL7ol7foRH

A third prevailing opinion stands between both sides and says that they all need to stay out of her business:

As salacious as the allegations are, one sticks out among them: it is well-known and obvious that Miss Piggy has never sought out rhinoplasty. Her Barbra-esque devotion to maintaining her culturally significant nose has been noted for decades. That one claim could easily bring one to doubt the entire slew of supposed nips and tucks.
These tabloid feeders may want to keep it cute with Miss Piggy, lest they find themselves on the receiving end of a well-deserved “HI-YAH!”

really? this is worthy of space on this site? A puppet has botox? WTF has that to do with the gay community? Leave it on tictok where is belongs.

I’ve learned the 3-step Secret to Miss Piggy’s youthful good looks:
1. No alcohol–
2. No fatty foods–
3. and only one cigarette after she makes love.
She’s currently down to around four packs a day.

Lies! Everyone knows the real Miss Piggy ( Miss Sooey Pancetta Hambone ) died in 1989 in a freak meatball making accident and was secretly replaced with a lookalike swinectress who also died in the late 90’s in an even freakier meatball making accident, who was also secretly replaced with another lookalike, this time a vegan potbelly pig from Pancetta Italy.
