"The Muppets" Find Their Sterling Knight

Just when you thought we were out of stars who have been wrangled to make cameo appearances in The Muppets, they pull us back in with more cameos--and they just keep getting more and more random. First, it was Judd Hirsch, then it was French Stewart, and now it's Sterling Knight. Yes... Sterling Knight.

Wait, who? Apparently, Sterling Knight is a young actor on Disney Channel's Sonny With a Chance and So Random and had a role in the Zac Efron feature 17 Again. Classic, powerful works of both cinema and television that obviously carry over to a cameo in a high-profile Muppet feature.

How do we know that young mister Knight is appearing in The Muppets? Well, he said so. Knight said so at the MTV Movie Awards (which were Sunday Knight night). And I quote, "I did a small cameo in the upcoming Muppets movie that’s coming out." It's kind of hard to get more of a confirmation than that.

If I had to guess as to what Knight's role in the film is, I would wager that he has a blink-and-you'll-miss-him cameo answering phones at The Muppet Telethon to save the Muppet Theater in the movie. But... all I'm basing that off of is him saying he did a small cameo, so it makes some sort of sense. (At least as much sense as anything else on this blog.)
