Lady Gaga's Muppets Special To Be Broadcast This Christmas
It features a duet between Gaga and Kermit
Lady Gaga’s 90-minute Muppets TV special will be broadcast in the UK this Christmas.
Titled ‘Lady Gaga & The Muppets’ Holiday Spectacular’, the show boasts performances of several ARTPOP tracks together with a Gaga duet with Kermit the Frog.
Sir Elton John, Joseph Gordon-Levitt and RuPaul are among the guest performers while actress Kristen Bell also makes an appearance.
Due to air on US station ABC this week to coincide with Thanksgiving, UK viewers will get to see it on Channel 5 over the festive period.
"I was so excited when ABC called me about doing a holiday special this year,” said Lady Gaga. “I knew it just wouldn't be a complete night of laughter and memories without The Muppets!
“Can't wait to see the gang again and I hope Miss Piggy's still not mad about Kermit. We're just friends!"
“What an incredible opportunity!” said Kermit the Frog. “We have a long history with Ms. Gaga, so we jumped at the chance to do a holiday special with her.
“We won’t even mind if she mistakes some of the Muppets for pieces of her wardrobe - again.”
Lady Gaga makes a cameo in the upcoming 2014 movie Muppets Most Wanted and infamously wore a Kermit dress for a TV interview in 2009.
