Cher Honors Betty White With New Version Of 'The Golden Girls' Theme Song

NBC’s upcoming tribute special to late TV icon Betty White will feature a new performance of “The Golden Girls” theme song by Cher.

Cher shared a sneak peek of her rendition of “Thank You For Being A Friend,” the Andrew Gold tune covered by Cynthia Fee for the show, on social media Friday. “Every Friend is Golden,” the singer-songwriter captioned the clip.

Watch the video here:

White died on Dec. 31 at the age of 99, prompting an outpouring of love from people nationwide.

NBC’s hourlong special — titled “Celebrating Betty White: America’s Golden Girl” — will air on Jan. 31 with “clips and never-before-seen footage that best capture White’s irreverent tone, spirit and impeccable comedic timing that are a hallmark of her decades-long career,” according to a release sent to HuffPost.
