Janice - The Coolest Gal on the Muppet Show

As lead guitarist for The Electric Mayhem, the Muppet Show house band, Janice was one of the only female muppets to interact regularly with the big shots of the show. Miss Piggy usually hogged the leading lady roles, but Janice is not a jealous woman. Janice was in a devoted relationship with Floyd Pepper, who played the bass, and though she often came off as the "ditsy blonde this was not the case. Janice was smart and witty. She was sexy without trying to be - girly but fit right in with the guys. And, her laid back attitude is priceless.

Original sketch of the character that became Janice
Michael Frith's original sketch of the character indicates that she was intended to be a male character, a takeoff on Mick Jagger's emaciated frame. Her name is probably a reference to Janis Joplin. However, in her final form as performed by Hunt, she bears very little resemblance to either Jagger or Joplin.

Janice: Actress 

Janice did not merely do lead guitar and vocals for Electric Mayhem. She also was an actress on the Muppet Show and in the movies.

She had a recurring role on as Nurse Janice on "Veterinarian's Hospital", working along side Nurse Piggy and Dr. Bob.

Janice had many memorable quotes. It was a running gag that the muppets would stop talking all at the same time except Janice. She would finish her sentence, not realizing that everyone's attention was on her...

"Look, Mother, it's my own life, okay, so if I want to live on a beach and walk around naked...." (The Great Muppet Caper)

"Look buddy, I don't take my clothes off for anyone, I don't care if it IS 'artistic'..." (The Muppets Take Manhattan)

Pure Love

There is no couple more perfect for each other then Floyd and Janice. These two do not put on the same arguing couple antics as Kermit and Miss Piggy or Gonzo and Camilla. They are merely two content individuals, who love one another unconditionally.

Great Lens. Janice certainly had the 70's rocker thing going. Her and Floyd I guess snuck under the radar of attention being directed at Animal. This brings back memories!
