Actor Jon Hamm recalled an awkward backstage encounter with the late Betty White on Friday.
During an interview on ‘The Tonight Show’, host Jimmy Fallon asked Hamm about a ‘Glee’ parody the two had filmed featuring the ‘Golden Girls’ icon for the 2010 Emmys.
The comedy skit featured the “Confess, Fletch” star dancing in a locker room and White, who played Hamm’s dance coach, asked him to shake it and “support that mother.”
“My job was to bring that thing to Betty White’s front,” Hamm recalled.

Hamm noted that White, who died in late 2021, was in her 90s when she grooved with him.
Hamm also said White didn’t take her eyes off him after the parody.
“My favorite part was the continuation of that. … I had to present right after [sketch] with Betty,’ Hamm said.
“I had to get out of my ‘Glee’ costume and into my tuxedo. So I had to do a quick change backstage, and Betty was there,” he recalled.
“And by the way, [she] did not look away!”
“Wow! Betty White is a legend,” Fallon exclaimed as a smile appeared on Hamm’s face.
