Ed Asner gropes Betty White, shakes his cane at people
By Virginia SmithDecember 15th, 2010, 12:15 pmComments (3)These are just two of the things that really did happen, in real life, at what will surely go down in history as the greatest photo shoot to ever take place on this earth, for the Hollywood Reporter's upcoming "Legends of Hollywood" issue. In fairness to Asner, he only grabbed White's boobs after she grabbed his crotch, and she didn't seem too bothered: "She just carried on, throwing back her shoulders and sticking her chest out and smiling, while the photographer took photos," a source from the set said.
Other highlights include Debbie Reynolds greeting Mickey Rooney with a cheery "I thought you were dead!" and Asner waving his cane and shouting "I'll rake you with this stick!" at Larry Hagman, who responded, "I had a colonoscopy yesterday, so I can take anything."
Junk grabbing? Cane-waving? Threats of sodomy? Terry Richardson's racy-photo-shoot cred just plummeted.

The whole thing sounds like a riot. Was there video shooting as well as still photos? I'd pay to see that.
Ed has been a guest teacher at my acting class numerous times, and he is one of the funniest guys I've ever met. No one is safe from his wit. I want to see a movie starring Ed and Betty...with Galifianakis as their child.
Preverts.
