It’s hard to imagine anyone feuding with Betty White, national treasure that she is. But it seems not all of her co-stars are fans.
Ryan Reynolds just shared a more-than-a-decade old video of his “feud” with the actress. He co-starred with Betty in the 2009 rom-com, The Proposal – she played his spunky grandma in the film.
So, for Betty’s 99th birthday on Sunday (January 17), Ryan celebrated it with a throwback video of their behind-the-scenes shenanigans from the set of The Proposal, where, apparently, there was a lot of comedy happening offscreen as well.
“We made this 12 years ago. Betty turns 99 today, but she is 100 [percent] the funniest person on the planet,” Ryan captioned the video.
The clip starts out with Ryan and co-star Sandra Bullock doing some press for the film. Then, Betty walks in the room and stops the filming.
Ryan was all: “What is Betty doing here?” and Sandra jumped to her defense, asking, “What is your problem with her?”
“I don’t have a problem with her. She hates me and I don’t really understand why,” Ryan tells her.
Sandra gets up to give Betty a hug, and they end up fangirling over each other – quite loudly – which totally annoys Ryan.
When Betty sits in the chair beside Ryan, which she pulls away from him first, she calls him “Brian” and tells him to go get her a cup of coffee and even called him a “terrible assistant.”
Ryan tries to explain that Brian isn’t his name and he just plays an assistant in the film. And Betty tells him off: “When Betty White says she wants a cup of coffee, you get her a f–king cup of coffee.”
“You seem like an adorable, sweet old lady on the outside, but on the inside, on the inside you’re like this seething demon. You hear me? Why don’t you go suck a hot c–k?” Ryan claps back.
And when Sandra went to comfort a seemingly distraught Betty, the veteran actress secretly gives Ryan the finger.
Now, Ryan is known for his hilarious fake celebrity feuds – and it’s pretty cool that Betty was game with his antics. Apparently, these two together are a hoot!
Tons of other celebrities also celebrated Betty’s 99th birthday on social media, including Ellen DeGeneres, Josh Gad, Maria Shriver, Ming-Na Wen, and more.
Happy Birthday, Betty!
