Martha Stewart Is No Lush, But She Sure Loves Getting Talk Show Hosts Trashed
Posted by Molly Friedman at 8:30 AM on March 20, 2008
After gleefully watching along as Martha Stewart doused Conan O'Brien with all sorts of lush-inducing cocktails, from Guinness to gin to mystery concoctions, we put on our thinking caps and sorted through our clip-clustered memories. After we cleared the cobwebs a bit, we remembered that this wasn't the first time Martha shared her love of liquor with television hosts. Loyal Defamer readers will recall her 8am rise-and-shine mixers with Meredith Vieira on The Today Show last month, and insomniacs will certainly remember her booze-on-the-brain appearance on The Late Show last week (in which she listed at least four indecipherable drinks she calls her "favourites"). But her fondness of ladylike cocktails doesn't stop there. Intrepid Defamer Videographer™ Molly McAleer put together a burp-filled mashup of our favourite Professional Housewife's alcohol-drenched appearances of late; as always, video is available the jump.
Whether she's introducing her audience to the magic of whiskey sours, or waxing enthusiastic about her love of vodka to Mer, or simply listing every single drink imaginable to poor perplexed Dave (um, did she really just say "wine spitzer"? We knew she had a funny bone, but among all the Luv Guv-related scandalicious terminology thrust at us from every media outlet we tune in to, that's gotta top our lists), Martha is no longer just the Queen of napkin-folding and flower arrangements. We're hiring her to bartend our next birthday party.

It's an old bar trick; the drunker they get, the funnier she sounds.

America is so funny. There are violent and sexual scenes and headlines all over the media, yet the sole mention of booze is SO EVIL and using wine to cook is suddenly equal to getting your guests "trashed."
Pff, lighten up (and have a glass of wine while doing it).

Makes me think of the fine fine fine toilet wine we shared in the big house.

@iAlreadyHateYou: Hey! Not me! I'd knock back a couple with Martha any day... it's just fun to see someone who everyone thinks is so uptight have a little fun like the rest of us normies, right?
