Tributes begin to pour in following Betty White’s death

Betty White, former Golden Girl and national treasure, was set to turn 100 on Jan. 17 and was inviting fans to celebrate with her in a special movie event called “Betty White: 100 Years Young — A Birthday Celebration.”

The movie, made by Steve Boettcher and Mike Trinklein, follows White in her day-to-day life, including behind-the-scenes on sets, working with her office staff, entertaining at home, lending her voice as an animal advocate and taking viewers to her actual birthday party.

A star-studded cast of friends including Ryan Reynolds, Tina Fey, Robert Redford, Lin Manuel- Miranda, Clint Eastwood, Morgan Freeman, Jay Leno, Carol Burnett, Craig Ferguson, Jimmy Kimmel, Valerie Bertinelli, James Corden, Wendy Malick, and Jennifer Love Hewitt join her.
