there were several "betty white shows," and finally, the last one, i wanted to call "yet another bettyte show," but they wouldn't hold still for that. seacrest: every time her career seemed to wane, betty would recapture that national spotlight, on mary tyler moore's show in the '70s, the "golden girls" in the '80s, and "saturday night live" in 2010. fey: i love betty. we got to do a week at snl with betty. and it was inspiring just to see, one, that her timing was just rock solid still. her ability to work. she would go home every night to the hotel, and i'd say, "how was your night last night, betty?" she was like, "good, i went back to the hotel. i had vodka and a cold hotdog." like that, that's the secret, i guess. seacrest: every funny lady of television has her own unique secret formula, a dash of comedy, a measure of likability, and an extra portion of personality. television for women has always been a better place. we knew it was something very good and something innovative. i am so happy when i'm performing. i am truly happy when i'm -- that's it. i thought acting was just fu

betty white is not dead.ople thought she was after they mis-read a fake news headline that was online. the headline read, "actress betty white *dyes peacefully in her los angeles home." that was referring to white dyeing her hair. but that was enough for people to jump to conclusions and mourn her loss on social media. white's agent confirmed that she's still alive and working. marcus is here ... hi marcus! >> dean is still with us as well. >> his hair color hasn't changed much. ending two hoaxes at once there. today we're talking about char's and storms. scattered stuff early on. into the afternoon we dry out. to the west we have that dream. we have showers out there not a severe storm but the cluster moving up along 80 is going to be an issue. that will slow you down in a big way. a lot of water there. you can see this line moving right toward ottawa. streator, the rain will make its way there and into lincoln as well. be on the lookout for that line to press towards the east. elsewhere, we have comb condit

betty white's bowels move more than my face. it's like -- i can totally be a skin donor. >> reporter: she often joked with me about being the queen of plastic surgery. just look at how radically her face changed through the years. what we all love about you is that you do make fun of yourself. what are some of the things you say about joan rivers? >> oh. with facelifts? >> yeah. >> every time i cross my legs, my mouth snaps open. i really feel i got my face tightened because now, every time, now, that i swallow, i have an orgasm. i mean, i have a million jokes. but, you know, by laughing at it, it makes it okay. >> why are you so open? you didn't have to be. >> because we're in a society where looks count, barbara. that's number one. and all the beautiful women lie and say i've done nothing, and that is so unfair. and i just want women to know it's okay. do it. >> what do you say to people who say, "joan rivers, you have just done too much?" >> and i say, "mind your business." and if it's a man, i always look at the wife, who's

betty white an exception to that rule. i think joan rivers maybe even a more notable one.idn't continue to pick at, if you will, or denigrate people of her own age. she has taken shots at justin bieber as recently as the last year, and taking them hard. she understood today's young people, and that is what you have to do to be successful. >> she did. if you saw her crowds they were v%great mix of young to old. >> how did she do that? >> because she had a great following, and shepard, if you're funny, you're funny, and if you can relate, you can relate, and if she -- she knew her audience and her audience was wide. there was -- she was a scrapper. she did her shows on the shopping network. she sold merchandize. i mean, there's nothing she didn't do. the red carpet, made that famous. all the red carpet imitators are imitators of joan. she cut her own swath through the world of show business. we won't see her likes again. she was an incredible lady. >> larry, over the last, half hour and before, i've been reading the transcripts of an interview you kid did with her on cnn in

i think it's important to realize that betty ford's tenure in the white house was relatively short. the fords came in in august of 1974 pob the resignation of richard nixon -- upon the resignation of richard nixon. ford didn't win a term of his own right, so they were out in 1977. betty ford had been a model. she had worked in the fashion industry in department stores. she had a very innate understanding of what looked good on her and what looked good on others. one of the things that she did that was really important because those of you who are old enough to remember, you will recall that our economy when ford took office was in terrible shape. our interest rates were going from 10 to 11 to 12 to 13%. ford attempted this campaign called win, whip inflation now. it didn't whip inflation but it was his effort. betty ford felt that one of the things she could do is make a fashion statement about how you could look great and not spend a roth of money. so she found a designer by the name of -- and i hope i get this right. albert caprerra, who designed for a 7th avenue house in manhatta

betty! >> all right, so, is this about it as well, because it does seem like it appears gop lawmakers are going to back the white house's request to fund syrian rebels. so, is that something that you think is just politics, or is that really about policy at this point? >> well, there's a little bit of both. and yes, there's a political angle, like we discussed. but i think that in general, the republican party still does support this. you know, they're divided a little bit. there's some of the antiwar libertarian types who are not so swift to go in, but i think most republicans think that if we're going to head in that direction, there ought to be some kind of firm congressional authorization so the president doesn't just get a blank check. and at this point, it seems like that's the way it's going. >> yeah, when i say fund, i mean arm them in that sense. >> arm them, but you know what, we've got to pay for it, too. >> that's very true. >> don't forget about that. and we forgot that the last time. maybe we'll remember. >> ellis, thank you so much. >> good to see you. >>> coming up, find out how helping in the fi
