It was only released a short time ago, but the parodies of Adele's "Hello" music video have already started. Just one day after Saturday Night Live aired a sketch about the hit 25 single, Miss Piggy got in on the action during the 2015 AMAs. The famous and most fabuolous pig teamed up with Kermit the Frog for a The Muppets commercial featuring the emotional song we all know and love.
In the short ad, Miss Piggy mimics important shots from the "Hello" music video with a hairstyle and dress reminiscent of Adele. She then picks up the phone and calls her lost love Kermit. In one scene the leaves that blow gently around Adele in the official music video smack Miss Piggy in the face and she chokes on them. The wind also whips usually mundane household items at Kermit, such as a keyboard and a coffee pot as The Muppets air date flashes across the screen.
But Adele is also willing to joke about herself, which she just did on the Adele at the BBC special with host Graham Norton. She fooled an entire group of Adele impersonators and disguised herself with a false chin and nose. During the special, Adele took on the persona of "Jenny" who was a nanny that also worked as an impersonator of the singer. Surrounded by real impersonators, Adele feigned illness and nerves leading up to her performance.
The hoax even included Adele poking fun at herself for taking so long to release 25, saying that "She's taking her time," as well as claiming she'd critique the singer to her face. Fellow impersonators had absolutely no idea that Jenny was actually Adele until she did a rendition of "Make You Feel My Love."
