Prison-Hardened Martha Gets Into The Drug Business

LOLOLOL.

Ok, but for real – it still cracks me up to think MATHA FREAKING STEWART went to prison.

Apparently, she’s using her new-found street cred when it comes to new business ventures.

MARTHA’S GETTING INTO THE REEFER BIZ.

(More specifically, CBD, which doesn’t have THC in it… but let me live. This is fun.)

According to Fox News:

Snoop Dogg’s influence on business magnate Martha Stewart Opens a New Window. keeps “growing.”

The TV personality announced on Thursday that she has partnered with marijuana grower Canopy Growth to develop a new line of CBD-based products for both animals and humans.

Stewart is expected to play an advisory role in the development of the new products along with Sequential Brands Group, a consumer brands company that works with the homemaker. Shares in Sequential surged on the news.

So we’re talking like REALLY gourmet pot brownies here? OR…?

“I am delighted to establish this partnership with Canopy Growth and share with them the knowledge I have gained after years of experience in the subject of living,” Stewart said in a statement. “I’m especially looking forward to our first collaboration together, which will offer sensible products for people’s beloved pets.”

“Experience in the subject of living?” is this high mom talk for “I’m old?”

Canopy added that it already has several clinical trial underway for these products and it plans to lean on Stewart’s “vast knowledge of consumer products while exploring the effectiveness of CBD and other cannabinoids” as they relate to animal and human care.

Canopy Growth chairman and co-CEO Bruce Linton said the move was a no-brainer as Stewart’s brand is “one of a kind” and he is both thrilled and excited to work alongside the icon to sharpen his companies’ product offerings.

However, Stewart isn’t the company’s first celebrity partnership. Her co-host rapper Snoop Dogg of “Martha & Snoop’s Potluck Dinner Party,” teamed up with company’s subsidiary Tweed in 2016.

Ontario-based Canopy is currently the world’s largest pot producer with plans to invest between $100 and $150 million in a hemp industrial park in New York State.

If there’s one thing we know about Matha Stewart, it’s that she thinks money is a “good thing.” …and there’s apparently A LOT of money to be made here.

I guess none of this should be surprising because Martha Stewart has been up to THIS lately:

Oooookay then.

So…thoughts?
