Martha Stewart admits she's never ordered takeout despite being Uber Eats spokesperson

Fox News29-04-2025
Martha Stewart revealed she refuses to order food delivery despite being a spokesperson for Uber Eats.
Stewart appeared on "The Kelly Clarkson Show" alongside celebrity chef José Andrés. The two were talking about their filming experience for NBC's new cooking competition show, "Yes, Chef!"
"I tried to go to every great restaurant in Toronto," Stewart claimed. "And they have great restaurants in Toronto."
"And I go, 'Do they deliver?'" Clarkson joked. "No, I do like going out …"
Stewart chimed in, "Do you want to know a secret? I have never ordered in."
"Are you kidding me?" Clarkson asked. "You've never been like, 'It's a Taco Bell night. We're just doing it?'"
"My daughter will vouch for me," Stewart explained, before adding, "Never ordered in. So I will go out or I will not eat."
"She's so pure," Andrés joked.
Fox News Digital reached out to Uber Eats for comment.
Stewart starred in Uber Eats' Super Bowl commercial this past February alongside pop sensation Charli XCX. The ad spot played into the social media trend game, "We listen, and we don't judge."
"Honestly, Charli, when my agent first gave me your name, I thought it was the Wi-Fi password," Stewart said.
"Well, when my agent told me you were doing this, I thought you would be doing the catering," Charlie shot back.
"We listen, and we don't judge," the two said together.
The two were also joined by Matthew McConaughey and Kevin Bacon.
McConaughey played multiple characters in the Super Bowl ad and his method acting "scared" Stewart.
"He is a method actor," she explained to Kate Hudson during an episode of her "The Martha Stewart Podcast" in March. "He had to play 10 characters, and he got into each character, and it takes him about 15 minutes."
"He's grunting and breathing and jumping," she noted, adding, "that scared me."

Jason McCourty recalls his roasting of Kansas City Chiefs fans at the 2023 NFL Draft

This week, Chiefs Wire's Ed Easton Jr. spoke to Super Bowl champion and CBS Sports NFL analyst Jason McCourty about his role as Pro Athlete Community (PAC) Board of Advisors Co-Chair, inviting fellow athletes and reflecting on his infamous roast of Kansas City Chiefs fans at the 2023 NFL Draft. "The cool thing about it is that everyone's brutally honest when you're in locker rooms and have guys you've played with. I will say, when guys have had the chance to experience it, they've wanted to pass it on to other guys. I think that's helped it a lot, because everyone who goes has such a transformational experience that you wish other guys to be a part of it, guys that you may know who are struggling, or guys who are thriving, that you feel it'll help them." Said McCourty, "About 30 former players were on a call, and Devin and I spoke about our experiences with PAC. As soon as we finished the Zoom call, I had two teammates text me, Hey, can you jump on the phone? Got on the phone with one of them. He first said to me, "Alright, Cut The B.S. Is this real? Is this worth it? I think when you can have those open and candid conversations, and he ended up going and he loved it, but I think that's been the cool part is that once guys take part in it, and you can have those conversations about what it is, you can tell people this is the real deal." McCourty was a guest on behalf of the Tennessee Titans during the 2023 NFL Draft in Kansas City. The former New England Patriots star taunted the crowd about his last visit, winning the 2018 AFC Championship. "I want the people of Kansas City to know it is all love. I have no beef. It is purely entertainment. It was so funny." Said McCourty, "The Titans had called me and asked me to do the draft pick, and at the time, I was on Good Morning Football, and Kyle Brandt had done the Buffalo Bills draft pick a year ago, and he had the chicken wing, he had the pants, and he had everything. It was an awesome announcement. I remember going in. I was leaving that afternoon after I finished Good Morning Football, and Kyle asked me, "So what will you do for the announcement?" And I'm like, say the name and get off the stage. And he's like, No, you gotta come up with something. The reason they're asking you is that you gotta be entertaining." "So my two-and-a-half-hour ride on a plane, that's all I did, was research, like, what I would say, how I would present it? I remember agreeing to go out. They've always said, You've seen guys go out there and take too long, and it's just like, Yo, the clock's ticking. Get off the stage." Said McCourty, "Roger Goodell says to me, 'Take your time and have fun'. I was like, Oh, that's all right, we're good. So, you've got to come up with some stingers, no matter who it is you're going with. I said something about McAfee. I think of that too. So my kids thought it was hilarious when they went on YouTube, and people were like Jason McCourty trolls. So it was a lot of fun." Pro Athlete Community (PAC), the first-of-its-kind network built exclusively for pro athletes to navigate life beyond sports, has officially opened its membership to all current and former professional athletes from verified leagues.

'Basic Instinct' writer promises 'anti-woke' reboot as Sharon Stone claims original film ruined her image

Catherine Tramell will be at it again. Joe Eszterhas, 80, who wrote the 1992 erotic thriller "Basic Instinct," is now writing a reboot to the iconic, controversial movie that is expected to be "anti-woke," after signing a deal with Amazon MGM, according to The Wrap. "It means that dialogue-wise she will be open about her sexuality, character-wise she will be raunchy at times, funny, iconoclastic and all of those things," Eszterhas told the outlet. Asked about the reboot, Eszterhas told Fox News Digital that he thinks political correctness in film has "stripped" away the way people really talk. "I think that the language has been, for political reasons, the truth has been gutted in some ways," he explained. "And yes, I hope that this 'Basic' renewal will be as successful, language-wise, as the first one was." Eszterhas said that he gets standing ovations and people cheer during revival showings of "Basic Instinct" after certain iconic lines, like Michael Douglas' character wanting to "f--- like minks, raise rugrats and live happily ever after" and him referring to Tramell as the "f--- of the century." He said some people in the industry are "beginning to speak out about" political correctness in the industry, "and I hope that goes into the filmmaking as well. DEI, it may be a noble concept, but it doesn't work in drama and in film." Eszterhas is also hopeful that Sharon Stone will return to the role that made her a star. "Catherine Tramell will be an important character. She will not be the dominant character, but she will have a terrific role. And I have great hope that she can turn it into the same iconic performance – and I think that's what it was – that she did in the original," he told Fox News Digital. He added, "She was a terrific actress, and she wanted to get the part. Thankfully, she did. And that's one of the reasons the movie was such a hit." Eszterhas hasn't talked to Stone about the reboot, and the 67-year-old actress doesn't sound like she's interested. "If it goes the way the one I was in went, I would just say, 'I don't know why you do it. I mean, go ahead, but good f------ luck," Stone told the "Today" show this week of the reboot. The "Total Recall" star reprised her role as Tramell in 2006 for "Basic Instinct 2," which was a box office flop and widely panned. Despite the fact that "Basic Instinct" was her breakout film, Stone told "The Daily Mail" that the film's success brought her fame but not respect, and that she lost roles because casting directors couldn't see past Catherine Tramell. "They said I was just like the character, like, somehow, they found someone who was just like that, and she slipped into the clothes, and it was magically recorded on film," she said, adding, "Then, as it played everywhere on the globe for the next 20 years, people started to go, 'Do you think this really has anything to do with the fact that we thought we saw up her skirt?' I think maybe it's actually a pretty good performance.'" "Well, I think that the language has been in a period where it's been devoid of real meaning and in some ways stripped of the way people really talk." She continued, "So it went from me being nominated for a Golden Globe and people laughing when they called my name in the room to people giving me standing ovations and making me the woman of the year. People came to recognize: 'she's not going away, the film's not going away, the impact of the film is not going away.'" But she said she couldn't book any more parts because of the film. "And then I got nothing. I never got any more parts.' Why? 'I really wish you could tell me," she said. "Sometimes I think it was because I was too good." She did do "The Quick and the Dead" in 1995 and "Casino" in the same year, for which she was nominated for an Oscar. She said Francis Ford Coppola came up to her before the Academy Awards and told her she wasn't going to win. "He said, 'I need to tell you something... you're not going to win the Oscar'. I went, 'Why?' And he went, 'I didn't win it for 'The Godfather' and Marty [Martin Scorsese] didn't win it for 'Raging Bull' and you're not going to win it for 'Casino.'" She said he added, "'You will lose with Marty and you will lose with me, but you will always be in our losers' circle' So that is what I have carried through my life – that I am a big fat loser like Marty and Francis Ford Coppola." The actress believes "Basic Instinct" even made her lose temporary custody of her son when she and her ex Phil Bronstein divorced in 2000. "They had my eight-year-old on the stand at one point, asking him if they knew his mother did sex movies," claiming she was perceived as nothing but a "soft pornography" actor. "I think very beautiful, smart people are perceived in very specific ways," she added. "Because I'm a woman who is beautiful, it's easier to have me not be emotionally intelligent." Eszterhas agrees that critics have reversed the way they think about "Basic Instinct" since it came out 33 years ago, with some calling it a "post-feminist classic." "And that it gave women the right to be whatever they wanted to be, not just on a commercial business level, but also on a sexual one," he told Fox News Digital. "You know, the days when I grew up in the '60s, a woman who was sexually active would immediately be tagged as a slut, a hooker, a nymphomaniac, if you remember that preposterous word, and a guy who did the same thing was a stud and cool and all of that. Well, that, of course, is insanity and women have the same rights that men do." After writing "Basic Instinct," Eszterhas said he left California's beaches for Cleveland, Ohio. "I'm very happy to be living in Cleveland and not in Malibu. Naomi [Baka] and I raised four boys in Cleveland," he said. "Maybe more people should come and live in Cleveland, and some of that rub off," he added, going back to political correctness. "You have to understand, I grew up here as an immigrant kid. And there have been some nice things said about my life in Time magazine, I think, or People, one of them very flatteringly said once, you know, 'If Shakespeare, were alive today, would his name be Joe Eszterhas?' Well, that was bulls---. But the guy who ran a bar next to where I grew up on the West Side was once asked about me, and he said, 'Well, Joey is just a s----a-- refugee kid from the West Side, trying to make his way in the f------ world.' Perfect." He also joked that if anyone has an issue with an 80-year-old writing a sexual thriller, he tells them, "Well, I have a co-writer. And my co-writer is a twisted little man. And that twisted little man listens to the characters. And then he was born 29, he will die 29, and he promises that this will make everyone a truly orgasmic ride." When asked how he would top the famous interrogation scene from the first film, Eszterhas told Fox News Digital: "You'll have to see the movie. Go back and see it five or six times, and then we'll have a discussion."

Cowboys legend Michael Irvin reveals details of cocaine arrest

Dallas Cowboys legendary wide receiver Michael Irvin opened up about an incident where he was arrested for cocaine possession in the prime years of the team's 1990s dynasty. During the seventh episode of the Netflix docuseries "America's Team: The Gambler and His Cowboys," Irvin spoke about the March 1996 incident that saw him arrested and eventually tried for cocaine possession. It came just one month after the team won its third Super Bowl in a four-year span, as Irvin had cemented himself as a league superstar and future Hall of Famer. "I had a routine, after you win the Super Bowl, before the next season starts, you get about a month, and that month you cut loose and have a good time," Irvin said of the incident that occurred just before his March 5 birthday. The documentary showed that, on March 4, 1996, police found Irvin, his former Cowboys teammate Alfredo Roberts and two females in a Texas hotel room with drug paraphernalia, sex toys, marijuana and cocaine. A hidden camera video showed Irvin discussing doing cocaine while in the passenger seat of car. Irvin faced potentially 20 years in prison. But he ultimately pleaded no contest to felony cocaine possession in exchange for four years of deferred probation, a $10,000 fine and dismissal of misdemeanor marijuana possession charges. He was also suspended the first five games of the 1996 season. Still, the incident resulted in a difficult conversation with his wife, Sandy Harrell. "My wife, she looked at me and she said, 'Don't say a word, God has already told me I am your wife and I am not going anywhere. But you have to make your peace with God,'" Irvin said in the documentary. "I don't think I ever felt worse in my life."
