| '''Annie Sue''' Pig was a character on ]. A young pig, ] hired her as a chorus girl and featured player in the middle of the third season. ] saw her as a threat to both her career and her frog, though Annie Sue has no designs on either. In fact, Miss Piggy was her idol. The cute little pig was performed by ]. | |||
| Annie Sue appeared in the background during the second season, first in a group of hip Muppets (wearing a pink wig instead of her signature yellow curls). | |||
| She was then "introduced" as Miss Piggy's rival in the third season. In this episode, Piggy is furious when Kermit hires a new girl pig singer, Annie Sue, especially when he introduces her as "the Muppets' delightful little lady of song." Annie Sue also helps ] with his memory act, easily winning over the crowd. When Kermit congratulates her, she modestly says, "I didn't do very much." To make Piggy feel better, Kermit lets her do the dramatic recitation she's always wanted to do, Wordsworth's "Daffodils," but the flowers on the set are filled with sneezing powder. Later, Piggy sees Kermit peck Annie Sue on the cheek, and she launches a vicious karate chop at him. | |||

| ==Trivia== | |||
| *Annie Sue is an example of one of the few Right-handed Muppet characters, because her performer, Louise Gold is left-handed. Louise always puppeteered Annie Sue's head with her left hand, and used her right for Annie Sue's right hand (any pictures which show otherwise would have been flipped). There was however one time when Annie Sue was puppeteered right-handed, namely for the number "Carbon Paper." The reason being that her rather inexperienced regular puppeteer wasn't actually puppeteering her in that scene (] was filling in). | |||
