Trumpet Girl is the description used in scripts of The Muppet Show for the female trumpet player in the Muppet Orchestra. She was named for the first time on the set of The Muppets by actress Rashida Jones who puppeteered the character in group shots, "I named her Dolores. They were cool with that." __TOC__ On The Muppet Show, she played the trumpet in the orchestra from the first through the fourth seasons. In the show's fifth season, because of the addition of trumpeter Lips to the band, she took up the trombone, which she first played in episode 415. In season five, her eyes were shown open for the first time. She had a brief line in episode 123, where she was performed by Eren Ozker.

- The Whatnot puppet was also used in utility functions, often seen as a chorus girl and as an unnamed dancer in "At the Dance" sketches during season 1. She made rare appearances with open eyelids before season 5 in episodes 105, 117, and 222. In episodes 117 and 222, she was seen with a small nose. In the latter, she was played by Frank Oz and Louise Gold. In "The Muppet Show Book", her skin is brown, rather than a purple/pink color. The character had no actual name, as the Muppet Show scripts referred to her simply as "Trumpet Girl".
