Is Betty White the latest cougar?
"Every time he came around, it was like flirt-fest," Sandra Bullock joked about the rapport between her husband, Jesse James, 40, and White, 87, who costars in The Proposal, out June 19.
"There was a little something going on with [Betty] and Jesse. There was a little eyeing, a little touching," Bullock told reporters while promoting the movie last weekend in L.A.
White countered quickly: "Very little touching, very little touching."
Speaking with PEOPLE, White explained, "Jesse came to see [Sandra] a couple of times. He's interesting. I don't think there is a square quarter inch on him that isn't tattooed. And I love it."

Sandra Bullock and Betty White Put Ryan Reynolds in His Place

What do you get when you cross America's Sweetheart with a TV legend? If you're Ryan Reynolds, you get a lot of disrespect – and several profanity-laced tirades.
In the latest offering from funnyordie.com, Reynolds must deal with the wrath of Sandra Bullock and Betty White behind the scenes of their new film, The Proposal.
The trouble starts when White asks Reynolds for a cup of coffee. When he reminds her that he's not her assistant, White replies, "When Betty White says she wants a cup of coffee, you get her a [expletive] cup of coffee, you ab-crunching jackass."

Despite her booming voice and boisterous personality – "Let's face it," the 5'9" leading lady once quipped, "nobody ever asked me to play Juliet" – Beatrice Arthur was very private, sensitive, even shy, her two surviving Golden Girls costars, Betty White and Rue McClanahan, affectionately recalled Monday morning.
Speaking over the phone on the Today show about their late friend and professional colleague – Arthur, 86, died early Saturday morning at her home in Los Angeles after a lengthy battle with cancer – both expressed their amazement when Arthur headlined her own, autobiographical one-woman show, 2002's Bea Arthur on Broadway: Just Between Friends.

Betty White Shoots Down Reports of Estelle Getty Snub

The collective reputation of TV's Golden Girls seemed to tarnish somewhat when word circulated that not a single cast member attended the funeral of costar Estelle Getty, who died July 22.
But Betty White, who starred on the hit sitcom with Getty, Rue McClanahan and Bea Arthur, says no disrespect should be inferred.
"We were with Estelle when it mattered," White, 86, tells Entertainment Tonight, reports ET.com. "I didn't go to her funeral and Paul, her wonderful caretaker, knew I wasn't going to her funeral."
