Dear Betty White,
I have known about you my entire life. Everyone in my family is a huge fan!!! I remember watching Golden Girls with my Grandma every week. I have always appreciated your comic genius and I always loved your wit. The thing I love most in life is a smile, and yours, till this day, is still electric. I love seeing a face light up with joy and your smile is always in a happy disposition which is why we fans love you.
I must admit I did not fully appreciate your amazingness until my freshman year of college. After taking a few acting classes, I was dared to do stand-up at an open mic night in Philly. Back then Anna Nicole Smith was the “big thing,” no pun intended. I thought her story of marrying an old guy purely for his money was hilarious. So for my shtick I decided I would be the male Anna Nicole, and off the top of my head I blurted out your name. You were/are the attractive, cool older lady I knew at the time. The shtick was a big hit. I performed once a month for a little over a year with that show.
I won’t get into details with the things I would say for a laugh, but as time went on, I began to research you and your life. Details in a joke make people laugh even harder…but you know that already. After a few shows my friends started to believe that I was not joking and was actually in love with you. I laughed it off, because everyone needs some dummy friends in their life. As years past we would bring up my comedy days in conversation and then you would come right up and again they swore I was in love. I will admit I have a great adoration for you, and would love to meet one day.
As time proceeded to tick away, my friends would buy me your books, calendars, DVDs, etc… After years of entertainment, I finally admitted I do love you. You have brought me so many laughs from your TV shows and movies. You have cheered me up when I was in a bad mood. And I have grown to love and respect you as a master of your craft and as a very fine, beautiful woman.
I love you Betty. Happy 90th Birthday!!! I wish you many more. Thank you for being a friend.
With Love,
Your #1 Fan
PS: I hope I do get to meet you one day, it would complete my life.
