    "I've always liked older men."

She's spunkier than most people half her age, but Betty White turns an astonishing 90 years old today.

"I’ve been the luckiest old broad on two feet to have all the jobs that I’ve had," White said Monday night during an NBC tribute in her honor featuring Tina Fey, Ellen DeGeneres, Hugh Jackman, Mary Tyler Moore, Ed Asner, William Shatner and Carol Burnett. Even President Obama got in on the jokes, asking White in a pre-taped message, "Will you please produce a copy of your long-form birth certificate?"

When she's not busy inspiring nonagenarians to keep having fun as long as there are still birthdays to celebrate, White has a new hidden camera prank show in the works, called "Betty White's Off Their Rockers," in addition to her hit sitcom, "Hot In Cleveland."

And while White says she's "lucky" to be in demand, we're actually the ones who are lucky to have Betty. We're still chuckling over her racy "muffin" sketch on "Saturday Night Live" back in 2010 and the way she urged Jon Hamm to "back that mother up" at the Emmy Awards. And that's not even getting into all of her hilarious moments as the sweet but dim-witted Rose Nylund on "The Golden Girls."

From her "SNL" double entendres to her hit Super Bowl ad, click through our slideshow and let us know: What was Betty White's funniest line ever?

    There is NOT an appropriate choice for an answer to this Question . . . Betty White, same as Milton Berle, is really a fine example of "cameras gone wild" . . . As White is so extremely, extremely over-rated!!! . . . And for what? . . . ABSOLUTLY NOTHING!!! Totally, totally meaningless. I think back in the 50s she advertised Tide, Dawn, or Colgate, or some such . . . And then in the 60s she married the Glasses Guy; Allen Ludden . . . Other than that, I don't think she ever really did anything in her entire life. So, what? . . .

    How old are you are? Are just hung-up on hearsay or stating things just because you can type? Betty White is funny and so was Milton Berle. She's a lot funny than these new generation of comedians and comediennes that need to use curse words and call themselves funny.

    You haven't said anything that doesn't make sense . . . Although, your Questions were strange. BTW, I remember Pete & Gladys that was a spin-off of "December Bride" . . . Milton Berle used to say stuff like "I took a red-eye out of Vegas" and get wall-to-wall laughter, as well as saying stuff such as; "It was opening night in the Copa Cabanna" and people would just roll around on the floor grabbing their heavily strained guts as they laughed, coughed, and gagged for mercy.

    You can say THAT all day! She probably made more off of those Lever Brothers and Proctor & Gamble soap commercials than the combined salaries of the two of us together . . .

    For those that have not lived in the same generations it would seem she has not done much but I know she has done more than the dumb reality moron stars of today that have zero talent, or how about the Jersey Morons that drink and fornicate and are useless. Not great talent these days.

    They don't have to be funny anymore. They just have to know a few curse words to keep repeating.

    She is tops for comedy and talent. No one has that kind of staying power if there isn't something extra special about them. If someone I don't like has a birthday that gets posted, I don't go there. Let those who enjoy her do it without a thorn.
