Camilla the Chicken Camilla the Chicken is the love of Gonzo ' s life . Her proper introduction on " The Muppet Show " is in when she and Gonzo have their first date , and it leads to trouble . She was previously seen and mentioned by name in during the jousting scene , and in when Gonzo attempted to audition her and another chicken named Nellie for Liberace ' s concert ( he eventually agrees to sign them on for his Las Vegas act ) . As Miss Piggy started out as one of a number of pigs , and Rizzo as one of many rats , Camilla evolved out of a group of chickens used on " The Muppet Show " as background Muppets . Before being named in , a precursor to Camilla appeared in replacing Gonzo in the Pigs in Space sketch , and as Gonzo ' s dancing partner in ( played by Dave Goelz ) . Even as far back as , Gonzo finds love with a chicken when he sings " Won ' t Somebody Dance with Me " at the dance . Gonzo loves Camilla , but sometimes he chases after other chickens , because he ' s not always sure which chicken is which . After all , " they all look the same . " Whenever a scene with Camilla was shot , nobody could remember what color Camilla ' s eyes were , so Dave Goelz and Jim Henson devised a theory that Gonzo could not tell the chickens apart , and Gonzo would just assume that whatever chicken was with him was Camilla . " The Muppet Movie " marked Camilla ' s big screen debut , introduced as Gonzo ' s companion in his plumbing business . In " The Muppets Take Manhattan " , she ' s briefly taken hostage by Martin Price , an incident that requires Gonzo to giver her mouth - to - beak resuscitation . Performing in The Muppet Telethon in " The Muppets " , Camilla leads a group of chickens in singing " Forget You " . After Constantine ( pretending to be Kermit the Frog ) proposes to Miss Piggy in " Muppets Most Wanted " , Camilla asks Gonzo when they ' ll get married . Gonzo tells her , when he ' s a millionaire ( again ) . Camilla lives alone in a gazebo - like house called " Camilla ' s Place " , where she sits on a nest in the middle of an otherwise empty floor . However , she appears to spend a good deal of time at the Bide - A - Wee Trailer Court . On " Muppet Babies " , Camilla is a rag doll that sometimes comes to life in Baby Gonzo ' s imagination . Merchandise of Camilla includes an action figure packed with Palisades ' Series 5 Gonzo , a Mega Camilla Action Figure , a plush doll by Sababa , and a statue designed by Jim Shore .
