"Baby, It's Cold Outside," is a popular duet in which one singer attempts to convince the other to stay rather than going home through a snowstorm. It was performed in episode 213 of The Muppet Show as a duet between Miss Piggy and a reluctant Rudolf Nureyev. In contrast to the original song, the attempted seduction took place inside a steam room, allowing for comic irony and a chance to show Nureyev in a towel.

Miss Piggy covered the song again in a 2011 duet with Vince Gill for the TV special CMA Country Christmas. Lady Gaga and Joseph Gordon-Levitt sang the song in the 2013 special, Lady Gaga & the Muppets' Holiday Spectacular. Miss Piggy covered the song yet again in a 2014 duet with Michael Bublé for the TV special Michael Bublé's Christmas in New York.

A recording of the song by Homer and Jethro (with June Carter Cash) was utilized on Sam and Friends on January 22, 1959, and February 15, 1960.[1]
