Miss Piggy to help kick off National Christmas Tree Lighting

Muppets star Miss Piggy will help kick off the holiday season by making a special appearance at the 2015 National Christmas Tree Lighting in Washington, D.C. on Dec. 3, 2015.

“I am so thrilled to be part of the National Christmas Tree Lighting, I hear this year’s tree will be almost as bright, shiny and dazzlingly beautiful as moi!” Miss Piggy said in a press release.

The event on the Ellipse at President’s Park (White House) can be seen on public television throughout the month of December. The tradition started in 1923 by President Calvin Coolidge.
