Television legend Betty White was honoured at the 70th Primetime Emmy Awards for her more than 80 years in show business, including several decades in television.
The 96-year-old star took the Emmys stage to a standing ovation.
White, who has eight Emmy Awards, reflected back on her seven-decades-long career in her speech.
"Somebody said something the other day about first lady of television, and I took it as a big compliment, White said.
"And then I heard her talking to her daughter a little later, and she said, 'First lady, she's that old. She was the first one way back.' "
"I thought the biggest, most exciting night I'd ever had I'm talking to Lorne Michaels now was the night he gave me an honour, but boy you topped yourself tonight, Lorne."
