7. She Holds the Record For Oldest ‘SNL’ Host Of All Time

Back in 2010, several hundred thousand fans got together to kickstart perhaps the most worthwhile Facebook campaign of all time. They wanted to get Betty White a hosting job on SNL. After an incredible show of support, Lorne Michaels relented and cast the old broad. It turned out to be a solid decision, because White — who nabbed the record for oldest host in the sketch comedy show’s history — earned SNL the highest ratings it had seen in 18 months. She also won her fifth Emmy for her performance.
