Betty White Will Celebrate Her 90th Birthday This Month
And what does the golden girl have planned? A giant party with all her friends and a nice quiet afternoon at home. The first part of the festivities happened Sunday in Los Angeles, where NBC taped a TV special, Betty White’s 90th Birthday: A Tribute to America’s Golden Girl, at which friends and colleagues praise her. To find out what Hollywood has to say…
But come Jan. 17, her actual birthday, White, who we know as an animal lover, plans to kick back with one special friend in particular. “I’m going to sit back home with my golden retriever Pontiac,” she said at a press conference before Sunday’s taping. “Usually I’ll try to play catch-up with all the things I never will catch up on. I may just do crossword puzzles and indulge myself and have a wonderful time with my dog.” Sunday’s soiree at the Millennium Biltmore Hotel will air Jan. 16 on NBC. The stars lined up on the red carpet to talk about White’s professional accomplishments and personal charm. “She knows when to pick up on something, ad lib what’s happening, but she’s also dedicated to getting the work done. She’s a very serious person,” said Mary Tyler Moore, on whose ’70s sitcom ‘The Mary Tyler Moore Show’, White was a favorite on for many years. “She’s just got that off-color sense of humor, and she’s just divine. I love her,” added Carol Burnett. This is one show you do not want to miss.
