Kermit the frog denies that he’s dating Lady GaGa. We didn’t sense too much annoyance in his answers when asked (he isn’t Jennifer Aniston, afterall) but Kermit was firm in his stance that he and the Poker Face singer are “just friends.” He did admit that Miss Piggy got a little jealous, which we don’t get. Lady GaGa has absolutely nothing on Miss Piggy.

more Lady and Kermit after the hop…

People sat down with the frog and asked him a few questions:

PEOPLE: So how’d this date with Lady Gaga go down, exactly?
Kermit: Well, I wouldn’t really call it a “date” – at least not if I don’t want to end up as a coat for Miss Piggy. Y’see, I just gave Lady Gaga a ride to the VMAs, and when Lady Gaga left her credentials in the limo, I had to bring them to her. (On the off-chance security didn’t recognize her. Hey, it could happen.) Of course, after Lady Gaga and I were seen on the red carpet together, well … Miss Piggy got a little jealous. But I definitely did get a ride home – in the trunk!

How’d you and Lady Gaga get on away from the cameras? Is she a good kisser?
Lady Gaga is a wonderful person. In private, she is very down to earth … which is where I spend most of my time. As far as kissing Lady Gaga goes: she is a very good kisser, but it was not a romantic kiss. It was a kiss for good luck. Kissing a frog is good luck for the person giving the kiss – but bad luck for the frog if his pig finds out.
