Martha Stewart Responds To “Naysayers” Claiming She Went Under the Knife
How did Martha Stewart look so fabulous posing for Sports Illustrated at 81? Well, the businesswoman, in responding to a few “naysayers,” told us.
“They’re very good,” Stewart told Variety of her fans’ reactions to the pictures on social media. “There are only a few naysayers saying, ‘The pictures are over-retouched.’
But they’re not. They are incredibly accurate pictures. I was really pleased that there was not much airbrushing.”
She then went on to shoot down claims she’s had plastic surgery just to keep looking young and beautiful, saying, “I’ve had absolutely no plastic surgery whatsoever.”
Her secrets? “I have very healthy, good hair. I drink green juice every day. I take my vitamins. I eat very healthfully. I have very good skin doctors. I’m very careful in the sun. I wear hats and I wear sunblock every single day.” Stewart added, “Every now and then there are certain fillers that I can do for a little line here or there, but I hate Botox. It’s a weird thing for me. I really and truly don’t do a lot.”

Don’t think that Stewart did not put in work to look as good as she did on the cover of Sports Illustrated. The “Martha Stewart Living” star upped her pilates game by taking pilates classes thrice a week to get in shape. She also started eating healthier and stopped taking alcohol completely.
But perhaps the achievement Stewart took most to heart was the way it changed people’s perception of age and beauty.
“It certainly has aroused an interest in many, many different places. I just got an email from Gayle King. She wrote, ‘Congratulations, this is really great. You look stunning, and blah, blah, blah.’ I wrote back to her, ‘Next year is your year.’ She wrote back, ‘I would have never even considered that it would happen, but now?’ That’s what’s happening. People are now reimagining their future,” she revealed. “And that’s what it’s all about. You can call upon the past but reimagining the future for yourself, for your family, for anybody is a very good thing right now, because of the chaos this world is in.”
