STORY: Actress, model, fashion icon, and global superstar Miss Piggy showed her saucy side on the red carpet in London on Sunday (February 12) as she was hired by the British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) to interview stars on the red carpet at Britain's biggest night in film, the BAFTAs.

Her royal piggyness seemed at ease asking questions to her fellow celebrities, especially amongst some of Hollywood's most dashing and in-demand men.

"Mad Men" actor Jon Hamm said he was looking forward to meeting the Muppet because they had so much in common.

"I know it's true, both great actors. Both, well, gorgeous in our own way," said Piggy, to which he corrected her "Well, I was thinking that my last name is Hamm..."

Miss Piggy did not look amused at this statement.

Next up was the star of "Shame" Michael Fassbender, who plays a sex addict in his breakthrough performance. The actor was up against Jean Dujardin, George Clooney, Brad Pitt and Gary Oldman.

Piggy, who wore a made-to-measure dress by Louis Vuitton, admitted she was hoping to have some couple time with her green half.

"You know, I'm waiting until I see it with Kermit. You know?" she said, adding "I want to get things kind of steamy!"

Harry Potter star Daniel Radcliffe also had some one-on-one time with one of Hollywood's leading pigs, possibly cinching a deal for their next film.

Radcliffe stars in "The Woman in Black" which beat her film "The Muppets" this past weekend. She was obviously not happy about it and showed her dismay. But she continued on as the professional journalist she is.

"I'm disappointed that we couldn't get you into the 'Woman in Black' as the woman in black," said Radcliffe, to which Piggy said she would be interested in performing in the sequel, if there was one, with one little change.

"But I don't look very good in black," she said, but Radcliffe being the English gentleman, advised her she had complete creative control.

She also interviewed BAFTA Rising Star winner Adam Deacon.

Kermit, coincidentally was nowhere to be found, on the red carpet.
