I’m sick at home today, and just finished watching Martha Stewart’s special on knitting. It got me thinking… what would I love to see Martha do? Something crazy… something wild…
I personally would love to see her learn to use a machete, blow something up (a la Mythbusters), or make out with Marilyn Manson.
Perhaps my brain is just in a weird place today, but the way you couched your question immediately made me think that Martha should have a showdown with Chuck Norris. I think she would kick his ass.
I’ve seen on YouTube. I actually liked the fact that they were both in character the whole time. If she had gotten all soft and giggly over a Muppet it would have wrecked it.
Stewart once appeared on David Letterman’s show to shill for a home repair book she had “written.” When she attempted a demonstration, Letterman mocked her for not even knowing how to hold a hammer correctly. There’s a difference between telling people how to do something and knowing how to do it well yourself.
Yeah, I was a little creeped out. Okay, sure maybe she was “in character,” but it seemed to be she was genuinely pissed at the guy. Did you see her face when he knocked over the cookies in her haste? One day Cookie’s going to wake up with the Pillsbury Doughboy’s head in his bed.
