It's safe to say that Betty White is probably the funniest woman in comedy right now—especially of the octogenarian set. But can Ellen DeGeneres make her laugh? Today on Ellen, White's stoicism gets put to the test.

Now, maybe White is too polite to admit that nothing DeGeneres did was actually funny. (Slinky-Eye Glasses? Endless hankies? Really?) But we have to hand it to Ellen for the inspired choice of getting a male stripper to give Betty White a lap-dance at the end. We salute you on turning a comedy fail in a surreal-television-moment win!

Now that's comedy.
