Novak) and Ann Perkins on Parks and Recreation (with Amy Poehler, Nick Offerman, Aziz Ansari and Adam Scott), and for her roles in the films The Social Network and I Love You, Man.

Jones starred in 2011's The Muppets, playing television executive Veronica.

Aside from acting in the film, Jones also performed Trumpet Girl, whom she unofficially named "Dolores."

I did a little bit of puppet work on the movie. There was a scene where they needed Muppet extras and there were not enough people because it was the end of the night. So I was like, I'll do it! They were so cool and they let me do it. But it is really hard to hold your arm up like that. I had cramps in my hands the next day from operating the mouth.[1]
