Hape Kerkeling



Hans Peter Wilhelm "Hape" Kerkeling (b. 1964) is a German comedian and actor.

On February 4, 2012, he presented the 47th edition of the German film and television award show Verleihung der Goldenen Kamera, awarded by the television magazine HÖRZU and airing on ZDF. Miss Piggy and Kermit the Frog appeared on screen (dubbed), and announced Kerkeling to also be the winner of the golden camera award in the category "HÖRZU Reader's Pick - Best Comedian."

After Piggy karate-chopped Kermit, who was trying to discourage her from hogging the spotlight and singing a duet with Kerkeling, she came out on stage (performed by Eric Jacobson) and sang "Somethin' Stupid" with him.

Also in attendance at the awards were Morgan Freeman, Denzel Washington, Dionne Warwick, Michael Bolton, Nena, Xavier Naidoo, Joko Cornelius Winterscheidt and Scarlett Johannson.
