Ray Guyll sent in this message from his actress daughter, Sabrina, about the Academy banning the Muppets.
Message from Sabrina Guyll:

Hi, It really isn’t fair that the Academy is banning the Muppets from performing their nominated song during the Oscars. Apparently they feel that the Muppets are “beneath” them, let’s show them we feel differently!!! (If you’ve seen the movie, you know the song will not be the same without the Muppets performing it!) I signed the petition “Perez Hilton’s “Get The Muppets On The Oscars!” Petition”. I’m asking you to sign this petition to help us reach our goal of 100,000 signatures. I care deeply about this cause, and I hope you will support our efforts.

As Ray stated to me: “I think that it’s worthy of getting the attention of all ventriloquists and puppeteers.”
