Performers[]

This page lists performers in this segment, citing the credits for A Celebration of Me, Grover. But the credits don't list performers individually by segment. Two of the people mentioned are Bob Payne (it was determined somewhere on the wiki that he performed in one of the Super Grover clips based on credits and voice) and Jane Henson (who I doubt was still performing in the 10th season, but we have no evidence of when she specifically stopped performing). Should the performers list just be taken out? After all it's possible some might not have actually performed (I haven't counted any indiivudl shots to see if those would total that many performers). Frank Oz obviously performed Grover, and I can clearly hear the voices of Kathy Mullen (though some of Bob Payne's characters sound like Cotterpin Doozer to me), Richard Hunt, and Jerry Nelson (who performs at least three characters in this... Two of the monsters and the Fat Blue man at the end). --Minor muppetz 17:33, May 10, 2010 (UTC)

It was essentially a process of elimination. Only three skits when most of them were performing are shown, two of which feature solely Frank. So, I ruled out any performer not around during the 90's, which the rest of the segments are from. I realized Payne could be credited for the little girl soon after, so I guess we can take him out, unless he's voicing Maurice. Jane could very well be one of the singers, but there's no other segment she could be credited for that's pre-90's except this one. - Oscarfan 17:40, May 10, 2010 (UTC)
They could have been performing clips in the clip montages. For example, the "Grover Work Song" includes a clip from a sketch where Grover worked as an elevador operador. And there's quite a few Super Grover clips. --Minor muppetz 17:43, May 10, 2010 (UTC)
Is it possible that Bob Payne is operating the two singing female monsters lipsynching to the singers? (Separate from the Kathy Mullen female monster, of course.) --Dave Splurge 00:23, May 11, 2010 (UTC)
