Betty White Joins Instagram To The Tune Of 75K Followers In A Day
It's a big week for icons on social media.
First, Caitlyn Jenner joined Twitter/Instagram on Monday (to the combined tune of 3.7 million followers), then Diana Ross crash landed on the Twittersphere on Wednesday and now, closing out the week, legendary queen Betty White has got in on the act, officially joining the 'gram.
Though Ms. White, 93, has only posted the above picture, she's already amassed over 75K followers, thanks in large part to being, ya know, BETTY FUCKING WHITE.
This coming just days after the Hot In Cleveland series finale, which aired its season finale on Wednesday after six seasons on the air.
She spoke to USA Today recently about whether or not we can expect to see more of White in the future, saying, "That's one of the things I appreciate the most, that I'm still invited to work. Usually, you get to a given age–and that's a couple of decades ago for me–and work dries up, but, oh, I've been so lucky. I'm 93 and I'm so healthy and strong. Work is just a joy. I know it can't go on forever, but I'm making the most of whatever comes along."
So what will White be doing with her newfound free time? "I'm going to see a very dear friend of mind, Bam Bam, who is a full-grown, male grizzly bear. He's a professional bear, a Hollywood actor. He takes marshmallows out of my mouth. I hold them between my lips and he just reaches up with his lips and takes the marshmallows so daintily. I'll bring a whole box of marshmallows."
Get it, Betty!
