Betty White Once Helped Launch the Career of a Black Tap Dancer by Hiring Him for Her Variety Show


n the documentary, White described that “all through the South there was this whole ruckus, they were going to take the show off the air if we didn’t get rid of Arthur because he was Black.”

Added Duncan: “People in the South, some of them resented me being on the show and wanted me thrown out. And it was never a question at all.”

White said she wasn’t going to budge: “Evidently through the South at that point it was a very heavy [thing], and I said, ‘I’m sorry, but he stays […] Live with it!’” White said.

People were writing articles and there's even a movie that was planned (and is still going ahead) about her 100th birthday. I guess people figured if she made it this long what was a couple more weeks? A lot when you're 99. 2021 played one last (hopefully) cruel joke on us.

That Betty White jinx. :mjcry:

Can’t even front like I used to watch Golden Girls because I didn’t. I know my grandma watched it. She was just one of those iconic people who you couldn’t think of dying because they’ve been around so long, and even as an elderly person the past 30+ years, was still part of pop culture.
