So true, and Joy needs to learn that as well! Joy was striving for anything low-born or "sensational" too pique the interview and thank goodness Betty didn't fall for that!
She was the last living Golden Girl. She outlived everyone else. And almost made it to 100 years. We love you Betty, we miss you and you will forever be in our memories. Rest peacefully Queen!! *hugs*
@@ACCOMPLISHEDSHEIS Yea she DEFINITELY took good care of herself. She was still walking and moving around quite well. I honestly thought she would live forever.
I love that you said that--it seems like she probably 'always' knew the secret, but it was cute of her to play coy with us so we weren't intimidated. ;)
@@ingridfong-daley5899 Not exactly. First of all, Ecclesiastes is a book from the Hebrew Bible which is also one of the "wisdom books" in the Old Testament. It was written about 300 years before Jesus Christ. Also, he didn't write the entire verse. It says "“For the living know that they will die, but the dead know nothing; they have no further reward, and even their name is forgotten.” Solomon wrote this book from an entirely EARTHLY perspective. In its most simplistic terms, it means that the dead can no longer enjoy or be rewarded for their activities in THIS life. If you read the entire book, Solomon says in 4:2 that the dead are happier than the living. But, when a person is dead, the opportunities to enjoy things on earth no longer exist. Its not a passage of gloom and doom.
She made sure it was a better place for animals but with people she couldn't care less. All that age and just as niev as the rest of the self-righteous so called women on the view.
Yes, but that saying isn't literal. It means the good die young at heart. All good people die young at heart because they don't have anything to fear from death. When you die hardened from the years, you die old. When you die just as enthusiastically and full of optimism as a child, you die young. The bad will always die old because they're worried about punishment for their ill deeds.
Joy: "You outed Carey Grant." Betty: "What??" Joy: "You outed Carey Grant." Betty: "No one knows, and it's NONE OF OUR BUSINESS." Joy: *continues to talk about it*
The story about her mother is truly something special. She was always so optimistic about even the darkest of things. Rest well Betty. You filled a world of such hate with so much love and we will greatly miss you. 🌹
My guess is that Bea Arthur was one of those people who was easily annoyed by people who are shall we say just too chipper and too happy. That's not anything Betty White did wrong, it is merely a clash of personalities. I have been the person who is too chipper, and I have been the person who is annoyed by the people who are too chipper, and I get that both can cause a clash. The fact that both still managed to find a way to respect each other professionally in spite of that natural clash in personalities is a real testament to their professionalism. And the fact that Betty just sees Bea's dislike of her as a mere curiosity and amusement and still seems to love her back in spite of it all is also such a sweet, huge credit to her. I think that is the core of the truth of her being and is why so many people from all walks of life love her. It is completely genuine, and truly remarkable.
I love how even when Bea didn't like Betty she still respected her for her talent and Betty even thought Bea never liked her she has such love for her and all of that cast. May they all rest in peace.
Betty is such a selfless person i really do enjoy washing her show's and she has got an amazing talent....how well do you enjoy Betty show while she was alive?
Even knowing Bea wasn't fond of her, Betty was still courteous and kind about her.. That's humility right there.. What a talented kindc soul this lady was.. The Zzzzlisters of today could not hold a candle to her. She navigated the labirynth of Hollywood with style, grace and authenticity.. What a beautiful legend ❤️🙏❤️
Adrenochrome doesn't keep people alive, it does make them live longer. Carey Grant lived with Randolph Scott for 12 years. Then he was advised by his manager to marry his secretary.
Bea was a very strict person. her son even said (i remember reading it) that she was the type of person who would sit in silence at the table with her morning paper and coffee. and i think maybe Betty was the oppisite of her (fun loving, a little more relaxed, etc). Bea was a hell of a person though. she was a marine
Bea was the type of person from what others not in the business have describes as completely kind and giving, if she knew and trusted you. she's like the American Maggie Smith, someone who just did not suffer fools.
I always feel kind of gross when I chime in with a negative person. I think, 'What was the point to all that except now I feel even worse'. Better to stay positive.
She is very lucky in that she has a very pert shiksa nose, wide doe eyes and a strong willingness to confidently showcase her femininity. No doubt this was because she was born at home (how quaint), fed her mothers milk until she was 2 years old (which beautified and feminised her). She was no doubt fed a very simple diet of red meat, potatoes and oatmeal even in sunny california. Her sweet Norwegian ancestry also helps!! She is the ultimate aryan doll!!
Betty White was phenomenal. Not many people exude grace and charm throughout their lives. Fame sometimes corrupts people, but she always stayed classy and sunny. She was enjoyable to watch, because she brought her sunshine with her to her performances and brightened all that saw her. A cheerful heart is good medicine, but a crushed spirit dries up the bones. Proverbs 17:22
Hello Serena how are you doing today? I love how even when Bea didn't like Betty she still respected her for her talent and Betty even thought Bea never liked her she has such love for her and all of that cast. May they all rest in peace.
I remember watching Lake Placid. I've only watched it once. My heart about leaped out of my chest when I heard Betty White drop the F bomb. I think I literally had to pick my jaw up off the floor. I remember both my husband and I staring at each other in disbelief that Betty White actually said that word. Think we sat there for a good 10 minutes stunned. Granted I do say that word, but it was just something about hearing it come out of Betty Whites mouth. I've never been able to watch that movie again.
Topher S I was going through the comments and saw yours. No, I don't remember her on the Mary Tyler Moore Show. Actually, I didn't even know that she was involved with that show. When I get a chance, I'll have to check it out. Someone else commented that she was in a movie called Lake Placid ( which I've not seen either) and that she "dropped the F bomb!" Yikes! I'll have to check that out as well! I have seen a few episodes of a show called "Hot in Cleveland" that she acted in and her role was much more risky. But no matter what she's in, I'm a fan. I think she's a wonderful actress!
No offense to Bea, but I suspect she didn't like Betty just because Betty was so happy. I used to identify more with Bea, but now I'm more of a Betty. When you're a very unhappy person (through no fault of your own), there's something about people who are just happy that confuses and kind of angers you. Even when you try to hide it, the happy person notices your annoyance at their happiness. I'm glad I figured out the happiness thing, or at least I'm working on it. I lucked into the right therapy.
What a wonderful thing to share. THank you. Interesting to admire how Betty couldn't care less about who slept with whom, but Joy Behar just wouldn't let it go. Seemed kinda petty and gossipy, while Betty just soared away on the high road. Makes you love 'animals' all the more.
What an absolutely wonderful woman. It's so rare that someone can live as long as she did without anyone having a bad thing to say about them. It seems that absolutely everyone who encountered her just loved her. What a loss that she's gone. I hope there is something after this life, and that I get to encounter her in some way.
I couldn’t stop sobbing laying on my kitchen floor right when I read the news. Was even supposed to pick up my little boy from day care at 4 that day but I just couldn’t and couldn’t even take calls. He stayed at one the workers house for two nights since they couldn’t reach so now everything is fine. THATS how much I love her I couldn’t deal
Hello Crystal how are you doing today?......I love how even when Bea didn't like Betty she still respected her for her talent and Betty even thought Bea never liked her she has such love for her and all of that cast. May they all rest in peace.
She’s an Angel. I couldn’t stop sobbing laying on my kitchen floor right when I read the news.

What a lovely interview. Both women played off each other well and had an intellectual conversation that went beyond “what’s your favorite role”. RIP Betty, you will always be missed.
@@hurricaneaj6412 sorry. That response makes zero sense. Please translate “ur British L” into English or Spanish. Those are the only two languages I can read and write fluently. Thank you.
xScreamfinity Do you have to swear? It really lowers everything :( There's plenty of nice comments about Betty. You come along, and although with a sort of nice one too, spoil it with swearing. It isn't needed (yes i swear myself)
Elek Ekberg OK, mom. We can express our fucking selves cause we are adults. Read the studies that discuss how intelligent people quite often swear and are prone to love the drink.
I think that lady got all the protection she need I think you've been watching way too many other videos when people say we need to protect a person, the only thing that got her still around is God Not a Human Being protection
+FrozenAuroras It was truly great television. but look back at nearly allepisodes of the show, Bea treats the other two ladies nicer and friendlier than to Betty
Just such a legend. At the end of the day - all this time on earth is about being a good person, like Betty was. That's it. Well done Betty you did great!
This program was just not good. I watched a couple of times (due to the guest, like this episode) and was really disappointed. It takes a real skill to be a good interviewer, not everyone can do it.
@@johnfd0210 it doesn't matter who's doing the interview, if it has Betty in it, it's great. If more people were like Betty and not you, it would be a better world.
@@shandelebroyles1099 First, you comment has nothing to do with what I stated. Second, the point (you try to) make is negated by your very comment. It's a bright one you are...graduate of Trump University, I assume?
I’m sad and not sad at the same time, Ms. Betty lived a great life up to 99 years old that is a blessing. As my grandma would have said “she is made out of good material”. R.I.p Ms. Betty
Hello Rebecca how are you doing today?....Betty is such an amazing soul she was so selfless and kind of love everyone around her....what do you think about Betty and her lifestyle?
Ellen Gregory she wasn’t throwing shade, she was just saying God blessed her with such a long life because she never disrespects anyone. also her attitude on life keeps her here
Dan San me I love her ..I’ve been watching them since I was a kid though ..I grew up watching them and my sister is in heaven and it helps me remember the good times with her
My grandmother hated her. She told me that since I was a child. She never gave me a solid answer as to why. And my grandmother was a loving person who loved everyone, but had a weird distain toward her. Very wierd.
True Blue Review... I always thought she came off as an uppity, nose in the air, snooty know it all, just from watching her from different older game shows. Your grandmother probably noticed that as well? Not a fan of Betty, but I wish her only a healthy longevity.
Joy: Let's talk about people being gay. Betty: I don't care about that as long as people are decent and kind. Joy: Right. So let's continue to talk about people being gay.
Joy is too dense to pick up on the concept Betty was talking about. She's also not a good interviewer since she stays stuck on what she wants and ignores the interviewee.
I heard years ago that Bea Arthur wasn't fond of Donna Reed either because her happiness and positive outlook on life. I didn't see many episodes of _The Golden Girls_ but I was a fan of _The Mary Tyler Moore Show_ . I still remember laughing at the episode that showed Sue Ann's sex parlor bedroom with the mirrored ceiling. She had the whole newsroom gang there laying on her vibrating bed and checking themselves out in that ceiling mirror. 😂 Such a funny lady.
Bea seemed to have a problem with small petite blondes then. I get it. I’m a tallish brunette who gets overlooked for such petite blondes. I could dye my hair but I’ve done that and ruined it lol I don’t go hating on anyone tbh but it’s disheartening how society favors certain types of girls.
Me and my granny used to always watch the Golden Girls when I was a young girl. It is so sad that all of them have passed on but I wish I could thank them for being a friend ❤️
I noticed Betty was ignoring or skillfully waving aside some things that the interviewer was saying. I absolutely love that. There's too much hatred in the world.
Exactly what would Bea need to defend herself against? Did Betty say she was an evil witch? No. She merely said Bea wasn't fond of her. Nowhere in this interview did she bash Bea Arthur in any way, shape or form.
Plus, I just finished reading story interviews from the Empty Nest cast. You know, the show that was spun off from the Golden Girls. The cast talks about their experiences working with Bea on their show or just being on the same sound stage. It was also confirmed that Bea could not STAND Betty, unfortunately.
DaxShaw I agree. What is so wrong in stating that you know someone does/didn't like you? She didn't elaborate or give any specifics or details, just made a statement.
JhomasE That is sad. It almost sounds like Betty and Bea were the closest to truly being like their characters. That is probably part of the reason why any scenes involving the two of them seemed authentic...most especially the Saint Olaf stories...lol!!!! Life imitating art, or art imitating life, I guess! 😉
Betty was petite, very cute, funny and charming. Bea was big, gawky, had a manly voice and look about her and had an angry vibe about her. I think Bea's problem with Betty was mostly jealousy.
Well, the problem with celebrities and TV shows is no one knows what goes on behind the cameras except the actors. They can act like they love each other on the show and hate each other in real life. Look at Linda Evans and Joan Collins. They were friends long before Dynasty and were friends in the beginning years of Dynasty, but something happened and they ended up hating one another.
Really though, according to Bea Arthur's son, she did like Betty. They just approached showbusiness differently. Betty liked to talk to the audience between shots, Bea liked to stay in character and not engage the audience between shots, etc. Really just Bea was more old school, but they did get along.
I loved how Betty responds to Joy’s attempts to talk about gay movie stars, etc, and Betty is like, “I really could care less” if the person is a good, kind human. You tell it Betty! Class act and I miss you already. ❤️💐
That was truly the best part. It shows how authentic she was as a person. Meanwhile, Joy can't shut up about the superficial topic. Betty had a heart of gold. 💛
Love you Betty . If you can tell me the secret I'll be still and listen. If you can't tell me I certainly hope I see you in the next go round . I will be in the best of company.
As someone who has a very upbeat friend, sometimes it's hard to take. Doesn't mean Bea truly didn't like Betty, just means sometimes your having a day where "sunshine, lollypops&rainbows" is hard to take...
I remember hearing her share her mother’s philosophy on death a while back and when I heard the news about Betty, I cried a little but was like well she knows the secret now. Rip Betty 💕
Betty White was a high priestess in the Church of Satan. She was the Satanic Queen of Hollywood. You didn't get to be famous in LA without Betty's approval.
it's sad that a few years after this, beas son confirmed that while she was annoyed w betty sometimes. she did love her. makes me wonder if betty ever knew the truth or regretted saying this. regardless. I hope they're talking things out peacefully like adults, wherever they may be, over this misunderstanding. and hopefully we as a society can let them rest in peace with no hate towards one or the other.
@@Anonymous-mo7oe I’m not being a killjoy. I loved Betty White. She was an amazing woman. She’s just not in heaven because it simply doesn’t exist. It’s an imaginary celestial, eternal realm created by humans to help them cope with the inevitability of mortality.
@@fezzik7619 Tell me, do you know what happens on the other side? Do you have extensive knowledge? Because it really does sound like you know what's going on there.
It’s October, and Betty is still alive. 2020 isn’t a total write-off 🙏🏼 Edit: It’s January 1st 2021 and I didn’t jinx it! She’s unjinxable 🙌🏼 Edit 2: December 31st 2021 - RIP to a true class act. Thank-you for years of entertainment ❤️❤️❤️
"I wouldn't want to be president of the United States" sounds like she was qualified, anyone that wants the job has an angle, a head of state should be dragged into office kicking and screaming
An Earth Angel, now gone home to her rightful place, where I imagine everything is bright and sunny and happy and bubbly..... just like Betty. Rest in peace, beautiful soul. We miss you already 😭
Ultimate, never thought much about her. I thought she was funny on everything she was on that I remember watching her in. I love that she's such an animal activist. I've watched her in this ugly political climate (thanks to the libs) and I love how she doesn't speak ugliness when asked a biased question. She doesn't fall for the Katie Couric's and all the other talk show hosts who try to elicit an anti conservative answer. NOW that's CLASS!!! I've noticed that about Rachael Ray, too. She may be a screaming lib, but, she doesn't care what political side you are when her guests appear on her morning show. Everyone should take their lead.
ProudKansan08 I absolutely agree! I hope 2018 will bring this country back together, seems like people on both sides have lost the ability to be gracious and kind to one another. So with that sentiment in mind, this "screaming lib" would like to say Happy New Year!!! May you and your family have a blessed and bountiful year! ✌🏽️❤️
10dogs7catsezpz, thank you, and I appreciate your gracious reply. WISH more people were like you!! Happy New Year!! And may YOU and YOUR family have a blessed and bountiful year, too!!! :)
My heart hurts betty white was the last link I had to my mother. My mother died. 19 years ago and my Fondest Memories Are of her watching Golden Girls with me. I was born in 1986 so you can only imagine the episodes I do remember. Betty White AKA Rose what's my mom's favorite character besides Estelle Getty LOL either way my mom died when I was 17, and I had my first daughter 30. Long story short my daughter is in love with the Golden Girls theme and loves Betty White. She is 5 and nonverbal autistic and loves the not only the theme song to golden girls but when she sees Betty White. her passing just makes life more indivisible but at the same time appreciable because of people like her. God bless Betty White and thank you for the memories of the good lessons that I've learned and that I can teach my children. To humanitarian, good person, inspiration, and just all-around good person thank you Betty White, thank you for being a friend. Happy 100th birthday
@M M B So sorry life tries you like this. 1) Autism is not the end of the world. Autistic kids often have genius in some area/s. And are not necessarily difficult. We adults are. 2) Your wife freaking out w denial is the clue to the other two mishaps. Try to be there for your child/ren & easy does it friend for her. Maybe she will come back, if not to you, at least to her senses. 3) I have been an insomniac since my childhood (perhaps since the womb) & take 1/2 Bromazepam per night since 1981, when I was suffering devastation from the end of a great love relationship. The meds authorise me to sleep. 4)I never did night shift but several jobs at once... try at least to rest when you are home... in your bed or on the sofa are best. Comfort yourself w music, films, books, above all, friends you like/really care about. Try not to shut yourself off from these nor from what pleasures life has afforded you in the past. 5) They are still your family. Tell/write your wife re how important she & your kid/s remain even tho' separated. Stay Dad to your kids. 6) You are not too old now... to lead a new life. Even if you were in your 60s you wouldn't be too old. Age is in your head. And you said you're in a blur. So, give yourself time to trust life again. Please forgive me if I respond to your suffering piece by piece. Am only trying to help. I am a woman, but have been "there" where suffering lives. Take care & stay safe. It is normal for you to feel as you do... after all that trauma. Give yourself the same understanding & comfort you would give to anyone close. And good luck .
@M M B I am pretty sure your wife's been wanting to leave you for some time but needed an excuse. Most likely to screw around with that other guy. But remember your a dude so use that to your advantage get yourself a younger girl. Many girls love older men.
It’s kind of sad when people assume that because you’re the oldest means you’ll die first. Betty, I believe is still alive because she’s always happy and optimistic and she’s always thinking of others. There will never be another Betty White.
Love this interview. Such a wonderful lady. Beautiful inside and out. There will never be another Betty White. She certainly was our golden Girl. Loved her and miss her very much. I don't think that I ever cried as much for any other star as I did when she passed. The world lost a true angel. Thanks for being a friend.
Hello Marian how do you do?...well for the records Betty has been a blessing to this generation and she has forth a good fight for herself....what do you think about this interview?
Why do we have to regurgitate this? No matter how lovely a person is, not everyone will like that person. Betty White did have a wonderful perspective; she acknowledged that Bea didn’t like her, she didn’t know why and it didn’t stop either of them from behaving in a professional manner to produce a wonderful show. We have all heard this before and since both have passed we will never have any true insight into what the root of it is. How about if instead of this being reposted a few hundred different times we actually honor the talent they brought to any of their roles and how they improved the world one laugh at a time? While I hadn’t been a big fan of many game shows in the 60’s-70’s I have greatly appreciated being able to go back now and watch her and Her husband together as well as some great clips from her different sitcoms.
Betty White has to be an angel. She is wise, Shes funny, Shes caring, Shes open minded and very intelligent. Wealthy but very grounded, I hope she stays around for another 50 years!
Love this classy and bright lady (Betty not Joy lol). Even when she was speaking about Bea not liking her, she did it in a gracious way. She will be so missed!
"I love everything with a leg on each corner. But the human animal is a vengeful creature. Human animals wish very bad things for other human animals." ~Betty White 💛💜
@@LisaMaryification lol detective Kenda is the man! One of my favorite Kenda quotes is, "Not only are you the worst liar I've ever seen, but you also have the I.Q. of a turnip." 😁🕵️♂️
Right. She broughr up the subject acting like she was totally unaware of anything. Then when Betty White said "Bea wasn't too fond of me", Joy chime in with " I've heard that before"
I Love Betty so much. We shared a birthday, of course more than 50 yrs apart, but the fact that she was just 3days shy of 100 is just remarkable. RIP Sweet Betty
Yeah, sure Betty says "I don't care who you sleep with.", but then you wait for her naked in her dressing room and it's all "Who the hell are you?" and "I'm calling the police!"
@@bmbutler2 well let our eternity be at stake and stfu. Did u not hear this woman? Ur watching a video with such a pure woman explaining how these things should be handled. She clearly said it isnt any of her business who pp sleep with yet negative, evil ppl like u still found a way to mind other ppls sexual choices. Let our eternity be at stake and only worry about YOURS. Also some of us arent brainwashed so save it 🤦♂️
On the cover of the current People magazine, Betty White and Valerie Bertinelli. With the exception of their hair color and skin tone, these two women have similar face. Both very beautiful inside and outside, bubbly and happy personalities.
Betty White really was a one-in-a-million I'm proud to share a birthday with her I'm sad that I won't see her get the turn 100 I was looking forward to it may she rest in peace and never be forgotten
Show bussiness back then: co-stars didn't like each other personally, but respected each other and kept it professional. Now, everything is about catfights and throwing shit at each other even if you work together. It used to be about talent, now is about gossip. Is even funny how the video's title is about Betty's relationship with Bea, when the subject was talked about for ten seconds more or less. Drama sells.
Joan Crawford. and Bettie Davis had one of the most talked about feuds in Hollywood. Basically the only difference between now and then is social media/the internet. People are people at the end of the day. Not everyone will like you, that's just human nature.
Betty was just confirming what Rue McClanahan told everyone before she passed. It's not that Bea disliked Betty, I think Betty just got on her nerves sometimes. Conflict of personalities. They both admired and respected each other immensely on a professional level. Bea and Betty were polar opposites as far as personalities go so it's not unexpected that sometimes Betty's super sweet personality would grate on Bea's more reserved personality's nerves. Betty didn't say anything negative about Bea here, went on to say how much she admired and respected her. Love them both - they made magic together on screen along with Rue and Estelle. I still watch Golden Girls to this day. No other show matches it's level. Hot In Cleveland is also good since its great to see Betty on TV regularly with an ensemble of women, but it's vastly different from Golden Girls.
Bea initially turned down Golden Girls because she thought Betty was the put up to be the star - so it seems she didn't like her even before they worked together. But that happens - a lot of people say they don;t like someone who's famous despite the fact they don't know them as a person
Me, too. Sometimes, my jaded 19 year old watches it with me, and she thinks their funny. Usually, she doesn't like the old shows that I used to watch when I was a teen, twenty something, and thirty something. But, she likes the Golden Girls.
Her eyes have seen so much in her time on earth and she still managed to bring us laughter. I hope if anything she was able to reunite with her ex like she requested. She came into this world as any ole regular person and she left this world with a grand finale to the end of the year.
This is a golden interview and I have watched it so many times since the first time I saw it on tv. I had to come back to say RIP Ms. Betty! Did anyone notice what she said about human beings and the human condition? She was genuinely a very sweet person!!!
I read somewhere about Saturday Night Live-Betty White, Madonna and Tina Turner didn't need to use the monitors to read their lines in the skits. They memorized all their lines in the skits they were in. Watch Coffee Talk with Madonna and she delivers her lines like she's just talking naturally.
I just noticed that all but Miss Betty died in succession 08-10, Getty 08, Arthur 09, and McClanahan in 10, :( she was the oldest in the bunch, God bless them all and Thank you for being one of the best shows ever!! This current Generation even watched it so goes to show how great this show is/was!!!
