Betty White has made a huge comeback this year--starring in TV Land's most successful sitcom 'Hot in Cleveland,' landing on Vanity Fair's most eligible single ladies list and getting movie roles opposite some of Hollywood's biggest players.
And while White is enjoying her time in the limelight, she has a few choice words for some of today's generation of actors.
"I cannot stand the people who get wonderful starts in show business, and who abuse it. Lindsay Lohan and Charlie Sheen, for example, although there are plenty of others, too," the 89-year old actress told the Daily Mail. "They are the most blessed people in the world and they don't appreciate it."
"They party too much, don't learn their lines, are unprofessional and they grumble about everything. I think they are terribly ungrateful," White continued.
The former 'Golden Girls' actress then recalled how things were when she was an up-and-comer: "We considered ourselves lucky to be on the box, never complained if a critic didn't like us, dressed modestly and were always on our best behavior in public."
Sources tell TMZ.com that Lohan is "saddened" that White went after her. The source added Lohan isn't angry with White, just disappointed that she would say those things at a time when Lohan is trying to put her life back together.
