LOS ANGELES, July 18 (UPI) -- Betty White" class="tpstyle">Actress Betty White says she is unable accept a U.S. Marine's invitation to a ball because she will be working on her sitcom "Hot in Cleveland."
Sgt. Ray Lewis' YouTube proposal to White followed invitations extended by his fellow Marines Scott Moore and Kelsey De Santis to "Friends with Benefits" co-stars Mila Kunis and Justin Timberlake.
Kunis and Timberlake have agreed to accompany the Marines to separate events.
Appearing on YouTube first in fatigues, then in his dress uniform, Lewis invited White, 89, to be his guest at a third ball.
"She's funny, she's sweet, she's mature. She's the all-around perfect woman," People.com quoted Lewis as saying of White in his video clip. "I really think we'd have a good time. I'm fun, you know. … I think I can make her laugh. I think she can make me laugh. I think we can laugh together. … So, call me!"
However, the Los Angeles Times said White had to turn Lewis down.
"I am deeply flattered and truly appreciate the invitation," White said in a statement issued by her publicist. "As everyone knows, I love a man in uniform ... but unfortunately I cannot accept, as I will be taping an episode of 'Hot in Cleveland.' Love, Betty White."
