    Okay, maybe not huge.  But I was reading on this site, by someone who claimed to know one of the best friends of one of the golden girls and according to this woman on this posting site, the hatred between bea & betty was so real, and so violently intense that one time, bea arthur went into betty white's dressing room and delibrately and spitefully shat on betty's floor.

    does anyone know about this incident and what happened during it and how it all came to that. . .unfortunate conclusion?

    That's disgusting, and the sort of thing I would rather not read about.

    However, I'm not saying you or anyone else doesn't have the right to find it interesting.

    I certainly do not find that interesting. If Bea Arthur actually did that I have very little respect for her. I am only wondering if there is a grain of truth to it.

    Can anyone help?

    Also, Bea Arthur is known for being rude and obnoxious on the Golden Girls. I still do not think she would do that, but again, if she did, I have very little respect for her. Considering most people say the reason the two didn't get along was because Bea was more professional, I certainly don't find doing that professional.

    I have read that article too. I hope there is no truth to it. If it is true, than I have no further respect for Ms. Beatrice Arthur.

    That IS completely disgusting, and I vehemently refuse to believe it, and what is such garbage doing on what should be an positive open forum to come and celebrate our Golden Girls anyway?! I certainly don't want to read it either!

    Ask the Enquirer.. sounds like some smut they'd conger up anyway!

    Beatrice Arthur is a woman of class and distinction, not to mention enormous talent, and I will stand behind her any day rather than giving some nut, in whatever article, whatever publication, even one speck of creedance, who has nothing better to do than spread vile rumors like that!  .. To even court that such a reprehensible report might be true is to degrade and betray the good name of our friends we come here to celebrate!

    I've gone on about it too much already! Suffice to say, I do not want to ever read anything of the sort ANYWHERE!

    am'

    I must say while it does seem disgusting, I don't think the poster came on here to degrade either of the characters. He or she was simply reporting what some other joke had the nerve to say. I'm sure it's not true, but SITCOMFREAK, do not worry, I do not blame you. Whoever wrote that is a jerk though.

    That's just awful.

    I doubt Bea would do something like that.

    This is false...EP Marc Sotkin said that nothing of the sort happened on the set.

    Hi, guys! I have to say sitcomfreak is not creating drama. I found the site she was talking about and whether the story is true or not, the site says it. He or she is merely repeating what they read and is not doing this with any intent other than to inform. Leave them alone.

    I found this on the website SITCOMFREAK was talking about, and it proves that it is not he or she making it up.  Some other vile slime is.

    Bea Arthur on her fellow cast members: "One was lovely, one was wonderful, the other was a effing c**t" Said **** c**t was Betty White. Bea apparently once shat in Betty's shoe - which is another reason WHY I LOVE HER -- j0e (j_o_e_...), April 12th, 2003

    http://ilx.wh3rd.net/thread.php?msgid=3461867

    There's something I found on that site. SITCOMFREAK is not causing trouble. The rumors are trash probably though.

    *There's another portion of the article. Maybe you all should shut up before blaming someone else for doing nothing wrong. They only repeated what these trashy websites are saying.

    from alt.gossip.celebrities:

    Subject: Re: Betty White vs. Bea Arthur? Date: 1999/08/23 The master of all I see recently wrote:

    >Okay. I just read a post that Betty White and Bea Arthur can't stand each
    >other. This is news to me. Does anyone have any information on this alleged
    >feud? How did it start, and have either of them ever said anything publicly
    >about the other?

    All I've heard was that Betty is accused of being a
    goody-two-shoes, though that hardly seems like enough
    to create a feud over.

    But the hatred is real. At one point Bea allegedly went into
    Betty's dressing room---and shat in the middle of her floor.

    I agree with you, but don't go blaming someone when you don't have the facts, because, in this instance, you were wrong and the poster was doing nothing more than repeating what he/she read. So just think before you pounce on someone.

    So then if Bea Arthur was suppose to do this, why hasn't she said anything in any interviews that she has done since Golden Girls.  I mean there were 4 Intimate Portraits on all of the ladies.  Rue, Betty and Bea have gotten together to promote the Golden Girls DVD sets and there hasn't been anything on E! about the 101 most shicking things that you didnt' know about ?? 

    So I very seriously doubt that Bea did anything that article is saying.  Why would someone work with someone for 7 years if she didn't like them.  If Bea or Betty didn't like each other, one of them would have had the other one fired or what not.  Look what happened with Shannen Dohertry from Charmed.
