The British national daily newspaper 'The Guardian' is reporting in the following article from the 'Art and Design' column on their official website, guardian.co.uk, the fantastic Nicktoons news that Omaha, Nebraska-based artist Celeste Pille has imagined what the characters from the popular Classic Nickelodeon original animated shows "Rugrats" and "Hey Arnold!" would look like grown up! Apparently, "Hey Arnold!" creator Craig Bartlett was alerted to Pille's work by "The Simpsons" and "Futurama" creator Matt Groening. Both are said to be fans of her work.

Angelica Pickles from Rugrats

"Angelica went on to internet fame for her terrible song, Weekend, and its even more terrible music video (produced by Ark Music Factory and paid for by her parents), and just when everyone thought her 15 minutes were up she leveraged her awesomely bad song's popularity into a reality show on Bravo called Fallen Angelica. She may not be a good singer, but she's shrewd, ambitious and makes for incredibly quotable television"
