From Miss Piggy to the Housewives, depictions of women who refuse to be anything but larger than life has revolutionized the way culture views the other side of middle age. This episode was produced by Danielle Hewitt, edited by Amina Al-Sadi, fact-checked by Miles Bryan, engineered by Bridger Dunnagan and David Tatasciore, and hosted by Noel King. Miss Piggy received the honorary "Grand Dame Diva of Culture, Divahood & Porcine Glamour" award at the 2026 Las Culturistas Culture Awards. Photo by Monty Brinton/Bravo via Getty Images.
