Here are all the charming things Betty White shared with us in an interview that aired Thursday on CNN:
- She thinks Melissa McCarthy and Tina Fey are the “best” comedians working today. “They’re craftsmen,” White said. “They know what makes it work. They know timing.”
- Regarding McCarthy’s Sean Spicer impression from last week’s “Saturday Night Live,” she stated: “It made me laugh out loud. It was fun because it was so spontaneous.”
- White thinks President Obama was “lovely,” but she once spent an hour sitting alone with Bo, Obama’s dog, on her lap. In her words: “I’d sit there and I’d think, ‘I am sitting with the president’s dog and I’m having a better time even than I would sitting with the president, and I love the president.”
- “I am the luckiest old broad on two feet. I’m still able to get a job at this age. I will go to my grave saying ‘Can I come in and read for that tomorrow?’”
