BEIJING, May 10 (Xinhuanet) -- Six Emmy Awards winner Betty White proved her popularity again in NBC's TV sketch comedy SNL, according to news reports on Monday.

Betty White, 88, has boosted the ratings of SNL to its highest in the last and a half year since November 1, 2008, when John McCain was a special guest during his presidential campaign and comedian Tina Fey was drawing fans with her impression of his running mate Sarah Palin.

She hosted the special episode of Mother's Day, which included its past cast members such as Molly Shannon, Tina Fey, Amy Poehler and Maya Rudolph.

Ms. White showed in every sketch among other cast members, and gained a large audience despite the "Golden Girls" satirizing her age.
