Forever Golden Girl Betty White's birthday is practically a national holiday, and who better to ring it in than her "Proposal" co-stars Ryan Reynolds and Sandra Bullock?
The actors reunited on social media to deliver a sweet birthday message to the Hollywood legend, who turned 98 on Friday. Reynolds and Bullock starred as White's on-screen grandson and soon-to-be granddaughter-in-law in the 2009 romantic comedy. The 56-second video, posted to Reynolds' Twitter and Instagram accounts, begins with the "Bird Box" star singing "Happy Birthday," before the "Deadpool" frontman cuts in with his own rendition of the familiar tune.
"I love you," Bullock signs off in the birthday video, while Reynolds appears to break down in jealous tears.
A handful of other stars, including "The Terror's" George Takei, "Charlie's Angels" mastermind Elizabeth Banks and White's "Mary Tyler Moore Show" co-star Ed Asner, also joined in the internet celebration, sharing their own photos with the "Queen."
"To the sweetest gal in the world," Asner wrote his longtime friend. "Happy birthday, sweetheart! I love you."
Born in 1922, White made her acting debut in 1945 in the short film "Time to Kill" at age 23 and was hosting her own radio and TV shows by the 1950s. But it was really her charming turns on "The Mary Tyler Moore Show" and "Golden Girls" that catapulted her to super stardom. In 2010, White received the SAG Lifetime Achievement Award.
