Okay, your cheeky wink makes me think you have this on good authority! Please, please, PLEASE be true!
Sorry to all those who'd rather classic Piggy, but I plan to continue praying for a currently fashioned one. Though I can see why many would prefer a retro pig. Either way I'd love her.
What's your idea of a modern Piggy? Are you talking the look of the puppet or the outfits she wears? There have been many Miss Piggy versions through Muppet history.
This is what most fans want in a classic Piggy puppet style.
This is what many fans don't want by way of puppet construction. The face is really flat and puppety. Her uninspired flat-ironed hair and short bangs make her look more dim-wit than diva.
This is a somewhat recent puppet that looks classic and is still quite attractive.
Nobody wants a truly classic Piggy like
this one.
As for the outfit - as long as she has purple gloves and pearls, I'm cool with a modern dress.
I'm in favor of a "new-classic" look for the puppets that seems to be going on in the Muppets' recent revisions.
