TMZ seems to be the only ones reporting this but they are usually spot on about celebrity deaths.



quote:

Beloved actress, comedian and American icon Betty White has died, just weeks before a milestone birthday ... TMZ has learned.

Law enforcement sources tell TMZ ... Betty passed away at her home Friday morning.

A trailblazer and pioneer in media, Betty had the longest running career for any woman in TV prior to her death -- starring in multiple shows over the past 8 decades, starting way back in 1939.

Betty is perhaps most famous for her lead role as Rose Nylund in "The Golden Girls," which ran from 1985 to 1992. She'd been in TONS of other big hits throughout her life though.

Dang. Just saw a thread on the OT where she only had a couple of weeks until she made it to 100.

She was always one of my favorites. I thought she would make it to 100. RIP, Betty. America loved you.

2 weeks before her 100th. That's the cruelest thing that 2021 has brought us.

RIP to a Legend

Jeez, just a day or two ago someone on the radio was talking about John Madden and Harry Reid dying on the same day and they said someone better hide Betty White.

Heartfelt condolences to Keith Richards. Always tough to see a parent lose a child

She was the last of the "Golden Girls" to draw a breath.

First got to know of her as an actress when she was on the "Mary Tyler Moore Show" playing Sue Ann Nivens, the man hungry culinary reporter.

Ironically, she outlived all the cast members of that show and the "Golden Girls".

RIP Ms. White
