About Martha Stewart being on Sports Illustrated’s annual swimsuit issue…
Face it, she’s an octogenarian – yet there she is in the flesh – with plenty of cleavage, a carefully revealed amount of leg flesh and a soft focus covering her however many facelifts and beguiling, sexy smile. Enough to make any number of red-blooded dudes think twice.
Or as Fox News puts it…
“Martha Stewart’s Love Life Heats Up After Poising in Daring Swimsuit For Sports Illustrated Cover. Stewart, 81, recently made history as being the oldest woman to cover Sports Illustrated Swimsuit.”
Ah, but this isn’t Stewart’s first trip the sexy lady plate.
And the fact that there are four (count ’em) SI cover models for this year’s swimsuit issue doesn’t take away from her accomplishment. One of the cover models is a trans dude and the other two appear to be more traditional swimsuit cover grrrrls.
In point of fact, in June of 1999 I interviewed fabled local BBQ icon Ollie Gates of Gates B-B-Q after he made an appearance the Martha Stewart Living show.
And I gotta tell you, Ollie was smitten.
That was 24 years ago and Ollie – who’s turning on 92 in July – was 68 to to Stewart’s 57.
So how smitten was KC’s BBQ legend?
“She stuck her finger in the bowl and licked it and said it was great,” Gates told me.
Stewart’s rib-eating technique was anything but a turnoff for Ollie, I replied.
“She picked them up like a lady and very delicately started to eat – very delicately, very sexually – she knows how to eat ribs. You know, I’m telling you, she makes it look very sexy.”
There’s more.
So taken was he, that Gates said he was thinking about naming his bbq beans after her.
True story.
“We’ve got to do something to let people know we had an audience with Martha Stewart,” he said. “May invite her to the opening of the new Gates (along Brush Creek) or to come do something for the opening of Liberty Memorial.”
So with the chemistry flowing freely was there any romantic action, I asked.
No, we didn’t get that intimate,” Gates said. “She did kiss me. She was real receptive. We kissed each other on thew cheek at the same time.”
Go Ollie!
Gates take on then sexy new Sports Illustrated cover pic of Stewart ?
Gates couldn’t not be reached for this column.
Interesting lady but not my type and I’m sure I’m not hers. I think she is overrated but millions of other ladies will disagree. Yes I will agree she don’t look too bad at 81 which is proof if you got the money you too could look as good as she does.
You know if Glazer were still here, his take on this would be a hoot.
Exactly…
I suspect he’d give her something approaching a thumbs up.
As for Facelifts, etc. ..
Not all cosmetic surgery is created equal. I’ve seen a lot of aging hotties with super scary facelifts.
Hey Hearne! The wife and I are looking to retire in Tucson metro. We’re looking at the Oro Valley area and also Saddlebrook, north of town. What other areas should we look at? Or avoid? Any input would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance!
Oro Valley is where I am, and poised to start The Oro Valley Oracle…
Saddlebrook is nice. IO have a very user friendly lady friend that we used I could hook you up with. Saddlebrook is kinda older, smaller, far more remote top the extent that you want some of the comforts of civilization.
