Looks like that Facebook campaign truly paid off. Betty White is officially heading to the Saturday Night Live stage! White is one "it" lady at the moment, and everyone seems to want a piece of little ol' Betty and I can't wait! With her recent comedic acts at award ceramonies, and because she can still pack a punch at 88 years old. This is THE perfect host for SNL. Remember she is the one that called Barack Obama "one hot piece of man", enough said.
NBC has yet to confirm that she will be appearing on the show, but various sources have now reported its a done deal. As well as White herself saying "yes" when asked if she will be appearing on the iconic SNL stage, while attending Elton John's post-Oscar party. White who also recently starred in a Snicker's commercial during the Super Bowl, has truly caused a few heads to roll in laughter and it seems like it won't be the last.
Those 500,00 Facebook fans should be pretty pleased with themselves, rock on Betty White!

The legend that is Betty White may soon be appearing on NBC's Saturday Night Live thanks to massive fan petitions and heavy demands, but it may not be to host the show. Although 88 years old, Betty White can surely still pack a punch. And with her hilarious Screen Actors Guild Awards speech that remains one of the TV highlights of this year, I fully back this decision. Get her on SNL!
However
Entertainment Weekly is reporting that instead of hosting the show White will be part of a "Women of Comedy" special alongside former SNL stars Tina Fey, Molly Shannon and Amy Poehler which are just some of the possible names appearing alongside White.
This decision has been made to aid Betty White not having to constantly host the show for a full 90 minutes (Hey remember she's 88!) whilst also bringing in the brilliance that is Tina Fey and Amy Poehler. Whether this is the final decision has not been confirmed, but it sounds like a pretty brilliant idea!
What do you think of a possible "Women of Comedy" special? Let me know in the comments below.
