A real translation of Sauli's blog. Assuming the "connections" that got him into the studios is Adam...

Translation of S’s blog from today:
Muppets and Stars
Unbelievable! I had a chance to visit one of the most well-known places in Hollywood, Jim Henson Studios on Tuesday. It was established by Charles Chaplin in 1917 and many of his short movies were filmed there. However, it is better known as the shooting location of “The Muppet Show”, which was created by Jim Henson. I won’t start to scribble down the whole history of the place, because hey, google is for that.
I used to watch this puppet show from TV when I was little and it was a strange feeling of "really - were they all created and shot here?" At the moment, Henson Studios is used by many singers, producers, actors, and various stars. Fortunately, I had some connections to open the gates, as I heard that just having a nice smile and blue eyes is not enough to gain entrance. hah! It was nice to see how the songs really are created and what it is like to work in a studio world. I also ran into Randy Jackson, and he seemed to be a very nice guy who laughed a lot. However, next time it would be nice to give high five to say, e.g. Madonna. hahah!! The studios can be recognized from outside by the Muppet character standing high on top of a tower on N. La Brea Avenue.

[Note: sorry for the quite formal translation – he uses pretty colorful language, which unfortunately I’m not able to fully carry over to the translation as I’m not a professional translator.]
