Betty White interview

Interview0 Comments

Betty White returns to the Conan couch and chats with O’Brien about her flirting technique and hotdog-inspired fan art. She also openly expresses her admiration toward fellow guest Jason Momoa’s magazine cover.

White on flirting:

Not good at it. Who wants to flirt with a 92-year-old woman? You don’t get any takers. Well, you always kind of flirt a little. It’s always fun. It gets you in trouble sometimes. Well, I mean, you know, when you’re with a group and then all of a sudden, you just hold somebody’s eyes just a bit.

It gets all the adrenaline going when we have a live one coming up. It’s a little scary, [but] I love live because when I started in television I was on five hours a day, six days a week live.

White wins Lifetime Achievement Award at 2015 Daytime Emmy awards.

I have been in this business for a long time. You may not notice that, but when I started in…1949 I had no idea that I would still be around at this point, for one thing. But that I’d still be privileged enough to still be in this business, and it is such a privilege…All those years that I had no idea I’d still be working though [are] so much thanks to you and your mothers and fathers and grandmothers and grandfathers. And a couple of great grandfathers when I was younger.
