If you say so!

The year isn't even halfway over, but according to Montreal’s Just For Laughs comedy festival Chelsea Handler is 2012's Token Woman Comedy Person Of The Year.

The famous festival announced their all-star line up Wednesday.

Even though we're a little confused about Mz Handler's nod, we completely agree with Fest's decision to make Kermit the Frog and Miss Piggy emcees of their All-Star Comedy Gala.

Other comics that made the 30th anniversary line-up include:

Hooray!

The uber talented Muppets received a well deserved star this morning on Hollywood’s Walk of Fame.

Joined by Lisa and Brian Henson, the son & daughter of the master of the Muppets, Jim Henson, the Muppets are the 2,466th recipient of a Walk of Fame star.

And it couldn’t of happened to a better group of people–err–Muppets.

Miss Piggy and Kermit the Frog gave Brangelina a run for their money at the Oscars last night.

The best dressed hog in Hollywood looked amazing in a custom Zac Posen gown, vintage Fred Leighton jewels and Christian Louboutin heels.

As for Kermie, he kept it simple in a Brooks Brothers tux.

Does it make up for the lack of Muppets during the actual show? Sadly, no.

Nevertheless, this makes our hearts soar! Two of our favorite celebs singing one of the best songs ever written. Heaven!

Before the Oscars kicked off, Darren Criss and the ever handsome Kermit the Frog got together to perform The Rainbow Connection at the Hollywood Roosevelt Hotel.

Check out the video (above) to enjoy the beautiful melody of these two beautiful souls!

What a way to kick things off! We'll be humming it all night!

And we ask the questions only WE would ask!

Last month, it was our pleasure to be on hand at the premiere of The Muppets in Hollywood. It was truly thrilling to be a part of the magic, even in that small way, and the HIGHlight was when we got to speak to Miss Piggy, Walter and Kermit about working on the movie. Still, we had some burning questions for the main man frog that we really wanted answers to, so we reached out to Kermit again, hoping he would make time for us.

And he did! Such a stand up dude!

In our interview, we ask Kermit everything from dating Miss Piggy to dating Janice from Electric Mayhem to wanting to date meet Kim Kardashian.

Ch-ch-check it out… after the jump!
