Hi ho everybody. My name is Rocco. I had the distinct pleasure of being on the sound team for the new film.

WARNING! IF YOU DON'T KNOW WHO JOHNNY FIAMA IS, FIND OUT BEFORE YOU WATCH THIS VIDEO!

I think Bill Baretta had a hand in this. This was right before we did a playback of the NEW MUPPET Movie, THE MUPPETS! Muppet fans, what you are about to see is UNREAL! Video starts with my reaction to Johnny Fiama singing to me. Then, Director of the Muppets James Bobin hands me the ROKKO Muppet made in my likeness from Jill Breitzman, Muppet Supervisor, Kami Asgar, and Sean McCormick. Then you can hear Johnny sing to me again. UNREAL! BEST DAY EVER!

Enjoy. Feel free to say hi on my facebook. Love,
Rocco Fonzarelli.

Ha, I wonder what other cast people got Muppets in their likeness. I always get a kick out of seeing Muppet likenesses of celebrities or crew on Sesame, Muppets, etc. (Loved the Muppets Take Over Today sketches) It's too bad Fiama and Sal couldn't be in the new film.
