B&B Star To Receive Lifetime Achievement Award!

We still don’t even know the final nominees for the 42nd Annual Daytime Emmy Awards (those will be announced on Thursday, March 26), but The National Academy of Television Arts And Sciences has revealed one of the trophies will be given to Betty White (ex-Ann, THE BOLD & THE BEAUTIFUL), who will be honored with the Lifetime Achievement Award!

“Betty White is an American institution,” says Bob Mauro, president of NATAS. “Betty’s career as a female pioneer has followed television from literally the beginning of the medium, winning her first Emmy Award in 1952, to the digital-streaming future, winning again in 2010. She is one of the most beloved female performers in the history of television and the National Academy is proud to be honoring her with a most well-deserved Lifetime Achievement Award.”

You can watch White accept her trophy (along with all the other winners, naturally!) when the Daytime Emmy Awards air Sunday, April 26, at 8:00 p.m. ET on Pop!
