Russ Says: WWE Diva Kelly Kelly Wants To Give Betty White The Stink Face! EXCLUSIVE!

Russ Weakland — Thu, 12 May 2011 18:02:31 +0000

After Snooki flipped her way into the hearts of wrestling fans at WrestleMania 27, I spoke with WWE Diva Kelly Kelly on who she’d like to see in the ring in the future! Call me happily surprised when she mentioned America’s favorite octogenarian!

When I caught up with WWE Diva and #82 on the Maxim Hot 100 list Kelly Kelly during the Maxim Hot 100 Party at Eden May 11, I had to ask the stunning 24-year-old blonde her thoughts on who she’d like to wrestle. Without hesitation she gushed, “Oh my gosh, that’s a hard one… Betty White. I would love to get her in the ring and show her some moves! Maybe show her the stink face!”

Now for those that are not familiar with the stink face, how can I put this lightly… basically Kelly Kelly would shake her butt in the face of a fallen Betty White. Something tells me the video below would give it more justice. Plus I don’t think it should be called the stink face because Betty might not enjoy it but I would probably enjoy the same move done to me if I ever was in a match with Kelly Kelly. Yeah, I just went there…

As much as that would be fun, Kelly Kelly also has acting aspirations and would love to be in a WWE film in the future, “I hope so, whatever comes my way I am excited about, we’ll see what happens!” she said. Kelly Kelly excitedly revealed which Hollywood hunk would be her leading man: “I would have to say Chris Pine, he’s a hot one!”

I’m not one who lives others dreams, but I would be very excited to see all of Kelly Kelly‘s dreams come true from Betty White to acting! I’m definitely looking forward to it!

Hollywood Life Staff — Sat, 23 Apr 2011 12:43:03 +0000

From your stint on ‘Touched By An Angel’ to hilarity on ‘Hot in Cleveland,’ you are a TV legend!

Valerie Bertinelli has had huge success in television through the years. She first became a sensation on the beloved sitcom One Day at a Time, and was a staple in many other shows from Touched By An Angel to the hilarious new Hot In Cleveland. She’s currently filming the upcoming third season of Hot In Cleveland, which she anchors with the brilliant Betty White.

Valerie was just married to her second husband Tom Vitale in January. She has a 20-year-old son named Wolfgang “Wolfie” William Van Halen with her ex-husband Eddie Van Halen.

In her 2009 book Finding It, Valerie talked about the difficulties of seeing her son transition from a boy to a man.

“My son doesn’t always want me around as much as I want to be around him,” she wrote.

We hope Valerie has been able to reach an understanding with her son and he comes to visit her on her big day! Happy birthday!
