1) Betty White.
Where do I begin?
I've known her long, but I think the first time I met her was when she was a guest star on Suddenly Susan in the late 90s.
Everyone was very excited she was on the show.
I had accidentally parked in her parking spot that day.

"Betty White. Where do I start? I knew her for a long time, but I first met her on the set of the series 'End of Suzanne' in the late 90s. Everyone was very excited about her arrival and I accidentally grabbed her parking lot. Who stole my parking lot? ". Boom. A new friendship was born.
She treated me like we were members of the same club, like we were equal in the world of comedic women. Wait one. "
