After a Facebook group was created (Betty White to Host SNL (please?)!), the Interweb went on a general crusade bidding everybody’s favorite Golden Girl for an SNL hosting gig. Originally, SNL refused to comment. Now, Ausiello over at EW.com says it’s close to happening!
There’s one catch – if everyone goes according to plan, White will be one of many hosts in a “Women of Comedy” episode that is currently being planned. Rumored to be a part of it (or at least approached for) this opportunity are Molly Shannon, Amy Poehler, and Tina Fey. Whether they’ll sign on or not remains a mystery, but this blogger is hoping they do!
The half-a-million (!) Facebook fans will be appeased, while White won’t necessarily have the pressure of the entire 90-minute-long show on her back. She is 88 after all!
MAKE IT HAPPEN, LORNE MICHAELS! I’m sure the episode’s ratings will confirm your stellar decision making.
