99-Greg Starp Betty White.
Betty White made her television debut at the end of the 1930s, and her name is now in the Guinness Book of Records as a television artist with the longest career. “There’s no secret behind it,” said White, who was made world famous by her sitcom “Golden Girls” once. “I’m just happy that I was able to get the career I have. I loved every minute. I’m just grateful that people have been so kind to me all these years. I’m the happiest two-legged old woman.”
White, who would have turned 100 on January 17, was the last “golden girl” left, now dead at the age of 99. With the appearance of a distinguished white-haired grandmother and a quick sense of humor, the actress has remained fit, happy and inquisitive into her old age. At the age of ninety, she sent her first message on Twitter, at the age of 93 she discovered Instagram for herself, and on her 95th birthday she wanted a new version of the hit series “Golden Girls”, which was shown in the USA from 1985 to 1992 and in 2005. Germany aired from 1990. White played the naive widow Rose Nylund in the sitcom “Golden Girls” about four elderly women in a shared apartment. All her colleagues died before her.
White, who was born in Illinois in 1922, started her career long before the “Golden Girls.” Right after high school in the late thirties and forties, she landed her first small roles on television and stage. Even after the “Golden Girls” she got other roles in television and cinema. White, who has been married three times, has also worked as a producer and won several awards. She remained modest. US President Joe Biden wrote on Twitter, “Betty White has put a smile on the lips of generations of Americans. She is a cultural icon we will sorely miss.”
