They may seem like an unlikely pair, but Martha Stewart and Snoop Dogg are thick as thieves. The rapper and actor finally shared his thoughts on his friend’s historic 2023 SI Swimsuit Issue cover, and the feedback was worth the wait.

“She was thirst trapping!” Snoop Dogg recently told Insider. “I said, ‘Martha, you playing games right now—you thirst trappin’. You go girl.”

With the release of this year’s issue in May, Stewart became the oldest cover model in the publication’s history at 81. She posed for Ruven Afanador in the Dominican Republic.

The Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia founder and best-selling author revealed the origins of her friendship with Snoop Dogg with SI Swimsuit earlier this year. The two met on the set of her cooking program, The Martha Stewart Show, in 2008.

“Snoop came on my show, and what was really charming about Snoop, first of all, was his giggle,” Stewart divulged to SI Swimsuit. “He giggles in a very, very nice way. And his quest for learning, he is a real student, and that’s what really appealed to me.”

The two have been an inseparable pair ever since, appearing on the Comedy Central Roast of Justin Bieber and supporting each other’s professional endeavors along the way.

As Snoop Dogg pointed out, Stewart is no stranger to “thirst trapping” on social media, either. While her original poolside Instagram thirst trap went viral in July 2020, she followed up with a similarly-styled moody pic inside the Hotel Castello di Reschio in Italy in early September.
