The tracklisting for the ‘Muppets Most Wanted’ soundtrack has been released and features all of Kermit’s best pals including Lady Gaga, Celine Dion and Josh Groban.

Obviously Kermit and Miss Piggy will take centre-stage on the CD, but a helping hand from Gaga and co is always hard to turn down.

Gaga has a long-standing friendship with the muppets and they even paired up to create a US Thanksgiving TV Special last year.

Miss Piggy even thinks that the soundtrack could give her friend Celine Dion’s career a push in the right direction.

“With a little help from moi, I think Celine may have a big future in singing,” she says.

Celine has plenty of kind words to say about Miss Piggy too, labelling her “wonderful” to collaborate with.

“Miss Piggy is wonderful,” said Dion. “She’s so charming and sensitive and filled with passion. She has a big heart and it was wonderful to sing with her.”

The generous Muppets puppets even let their co-stars Ricky Gervais and Tina Fey have their moment in the recording studio, before later duetting with US singer Josh Groban on ‘Together Again’.

Seriously, who knew Rowlf the dog could drive?

A score by Cristophe Beck, created with the help of an 80-piece orchestra, closes the CD.

The album will feature 20 tracks, including 12 new recordings and 5 bonus tracks.

‘Muppets Most Wanted: An Original Soundtrack’ is available for purchase in the UK from 24 March.
