Betty White's secret fountain of youth? A diet fit for a teenager!

Her tip for starlets trying to achieve her level of longevity: stay smart. "Be a professional and appreciate the business your in," she said. "Everybody all over the world would love to be in your business, so don't abuse it!"

Still Leeves told Us, the former Golden Girls star doesn't shy away from a wisecrack or two.

"She's got a salty mouth, that woman, and she's always delighting our crew," Leeves said. "She's always with the quick wit. Probably nothing I could say out loud."
