Betty White Picks Up Emmy Nom & Gets Sassy for New Calendar
July 8, 2010 3:30 PM

Betty White's has a busier work schedule than actresses half her age!
The 88-year-old dynamo woke up to good news this morning: She received an Emmy nomination! Already the recipient of four Emmys, the one-time The Golden Girls star will face off against Tina Fey in the Outstanding Guest Actress In A Comedy Series category for her ratings scoring guest host gig on Saturday Night Live in May.

The nom comes hot on the heels of the news that TV Land has picked up her series, Hot in Cleveland, for a second season. Production for the show — costarring Valerie Bertinelli, Wendy Malick, Jane Leeves — will begin in October, and 20 episodes have been ordered.

And as if that isn't enough, Betty also struck a pose in a 2011 calendar to raise money for the wildlife charity Morris Animal Foundation. Sounds innocent enough, right? Think again! In one shot, she's lounging while surrounded by men less than half her age... who are wearing boxer briefs! Sassy!

Seriously, is there anything this woman can't do?! We couldn't love her more... though she does make us feel a little lazy!

Congratulations Betty!

I think it's a safe bet that Betty will snag the trophy. Her hosting gig on SNL was one of the most memorable (and hilarious!) in years!!

I sure all the same Facebook members who campaigned for her to host SNL will also campaign for her to win the Emmy. And we all know how successful their first campaign was!

Bingo!!!

She better win! I'd be incredibly shocked if she didn't. Too bad that category is never televised. But if she wins, she should at least get to present at the actual ceremony.
