Actress and singer Carol Burnett celebrated her 90th birthday on April 26, 2023, on television. The celebration took place on Carol Burnett: 90 Years of Laughter + Love on NBC, and it featured popular faces from the entertainment industry.
Co-executive producer Linda Gierahn had been planning the event for a year when she noticed how enthusiastic the artists were to take the stage and perform. Vicki Lawrence, Kristin Chenoweth, Katy Perry, and Bernadette Peters were a few among those who appeared on the show that aired on Wednesday at 8 EDT/PDT.
Burnett said that she was not planning to celebrate a birthday party and planned for a show featuring singers and music. The television special was filmed at the Avalon Hollywood Theater in March 2023.
The show covered everything about her career, including her iconic performances and the popularity of her CBS show, The Carol Burnett Show, which aired from 1967 to 1978. There were also moments when Burnett shared the screen with her late co-stars, Harvey Korman, Tim Conway, and Lyle Waggoner.
Viewers particularly enjoyed a few moments. This includes Vicki Lawrence's tribute and designer Bob Mackie flaunting the dresses he designed for Burnett.
Carol Burnett has been a mother of three children and tied the knot thrice
Carol Burnett was first married to her college love, Don Saroyan, from 1955 to 1962. She later married actor and television producer Joe Hamilton, with whom she had previously worked on several projects.

Carrie became popular for her performances in various projects, including Love Lives On, Tokyo Pop, Checkered Flag, Equal Justice, Cool World, The X-Files, and more.
