==Legacy and revivals== Betty Boop's popularity has continued into popular culture. In the ''[[Green Acres]]'' episode "School Days", Oliver quips that Lisa "has a lot of Betty Boop in her". In ''[[Drawn Together]]'', Betty is the inspiration for [[Toot Braunstein]]. Rapper [[Betty Boo]] based her voice and image on Betty Boop. The 1933 ''Betty Boop'' cartoon ''[[Snow-White (1933 film)|Snow-White]]'' (not to be confused with ''[[Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs (1937 film)|Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs]]'') was selected for preservation by the U.S. [[Library of Congress]] in the [[National Film Registry]] in 1994. Betty appears in the Ink and Paint club scene in ''[[Who Framed Roger Rabbit]]''. Betty is parodied in the ''[[Animaniacs]]'' episode "Girl with the Googily Goop", with the Boop character called "Googi Goop". The episode, made predominantly in black and white, is also a parody of "[[Little Red Riding Hood]]". Googi was voiced by one-time Betty Boop voice actress [[Desirée Goyette]]. Beatress Johnson, a character in ''[[American Mary]]'', has had extensive plastic surgery to resemble Betty Boop. Betty Boop appeared with model [[Daria Werbowy]] in a commercial for [[Lancôme]]'s Hypnôse Star Mascara, directed by [[Joann Sfar]].<ref>[http://www.elle.com/news/beauty-makeup/betty-boop-daria-werbowy-team-for-lancome-ad Betty Boop, Daria Werbowy Team for Lancome Ad].
