Happy birthday, Betty White!

The Golden Girls and Hot in Cleveland alum turned 94 on Sunday and is as busy and active as ever; The actress appears with Rob Riggle and Joel McHale in a new ad for Bandwagon.net, during which she absolutely steals the show.

The commercial, which debuted during FOX's NFL Sunday pregame show's "Riggle's Picks" segment, before the Seattle Seahawks-Carolina Panthers game, sees White chatting on the phone with NFL personalities. A Star Wars Stormtrooper also makes an appearance.

"Don't worry Dez, I'll put in a good word for you with [Dallas Cowboys General Manager] Jerry Jones," White pretends to tell Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Dez Bryant over the phone. "I'm seeing him later at a swingers' bar."

"No Rodger, Luke Wilson looks nothing like you," she says to NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell. "You're much sexier. What are you wearing right now?"

Wilson plays Goodell in the 2015 sports film Concussion.

White also pokes fun at Michael Strahan.

"Yes, I did see you in Magic Mike XXL," she pretends to tell him in the ad. "I thought it was very brave of you to do so little ad work before filming."

White posted on her Instagram page photos of her and her ad co-stars.

"Nothing like spending your birthday with a friend," she wrote. "…and spending your birthday with 8 friends is even better—especially when they're good looking!"
