The announcement earlier this summer that the voice of Kermit the Frog was being fired and replaced took a lot of people by surprise. Let's be honest Kermit and the other Muppets have been apart of several generations childhood and any changes to that can be alarming.

Well for the first time we've heard what the new voice of our favorite frog is going to sound like and we are pretty sure even Miss Piggy will approve! Check it out below...

Jim Henson the creator of the Muppets had voiced Kermit up until 1990 when Steve Whitmire took over after his passing. Last year Steve was let go by Disney and the new voice Matt Vogel from Sesame Street became the frog. Kermit has been going since the 50's and one things for sure, It's not easy being green!
