Martha Stewart sat down with Al Roker, Savannah Guthrie and Natalie Morales of Today to discuss some hot topics when they approached a sore subject for the crafty chef — Jennifer Aniston’s new Smartwater ad.
The beverage company recently released a viral promo that shows Jen, 43, pretending to be pregnant with triplets. “I don’t really like it,” Martha said. “I just think it makes fun of some things and shows some bad examples to the youth of America.”
Well, if this isn’t the pot calling the kettle black, we don’t know what is! It could be argued that Martha isn't exactly the best role model for our nation's youngsters, considering she served time in prison following her conviction in a major insider-trading case.
The “bad example” Martha was referring to: wrapping a pregnant belly. That’s not all the 71-year-old was upset about, though. Martha also took issue with the fact that the ad might be insensitive to parents with oversized children — a criticism stemming from comedian Jimmy Kimmel, 44, playing Jennifer's young son in the ad.
“People learn from YouTube,” Martha said. It’s funny to a point and then it sort of steps over the bounds, I think, of sensibility.”
