I find Betty White annoying: Sandra Bullock
January 24th, 2010 - 1:19 pm ICT by IANS
London, Jan 24 (IANS) Sandra Bullock took a pot shot at her “Proposal” co-star Betty White before presenting her with the Screen Actors Guild Life Achievement Award trophy saying that she finds her “annoying”.
“Yes, I know that a lot of people really find Betty White inspiring. I mean, she’s been working in an industry for more than six decades in a business that doesn’t exactly value getting older. I find Betty White annoying. I’m sorry, it’s true,” she said at the event Saturday.
People.com reports that Bullock detailed highlights from White’s illustrious, Emmy-winning career from her earliest work in the 1950s to her present day roles.
She added: “Betty, you make me feel bad about myself. You make me feel like the slacker.”
In good humour as usual, White was more than happy to dish it back as she took the stage to a standing ovation.
“She is such a wonderful one,” she said, looking at Bullock. “Isn’t it heartening to see how far a girl as plain as she is can go?
“I should be presenting an award to you for the privilege of working in this wonderful business,” White said. “And you still can’t get rid of me. I was only 88 last Sunday, I got lots more stuff to do,” said White.
