Martha Stewart and Snoop Dogg don’t seem like a likely pairing. After all, she made her name as a homemaker extraordinaire, while he made his name as a former Crip turned rapper. And yet, here we are…
Both have been big names for decades.
Whether he’s known as Snoop Dogg, Snoop Doggy Dogg, Snoop Lion or Snoop-a-Loop, the man born as Calvin Broadus is reliably entertaining. He’s probably better known for his social media exploits than his rapping at this point in the game.

Martha Stewart’s still at it, too.
Her career hit a speedbump with her stock trading conviction in 2001. But since then, Stewart has bounced back. She eventually reacquired her trademark company and has proven she’s got a great sense of humor.
They’ve teamed up before.
A cooking show would seem to be right up Stewart’s alley, but might be a little bit out of Snoop’s comfort zone. Regardless, the unlikely pairing has worked together to create a VH1 series, Potluck Challenge Party .
It’s an unlikely hit for an unlikely pairing.
Everyone loves a good cooking show, and Potluck Challenge Party uses the natural chemistry between Stewart and Snoop to great effect. It’s been a success so far, and it’s going strong after its first two seasons.
They’ve had lots of fun with the show.
When they were promoting the second season of the show, they parodied the film Ghost with a somewhat sensuous teaser trailer. In this case, they weren’t molding clay — they were making chocolate cake.
Now they’re teasing season three.
They’ve dropped a teaser video that spoofs elements of the 1997 blockbuster Titanic . The reference is a little unexpected — but, then again, just about everything about their show comes out of left field.
It starts with the iconic score.
Everybody knows Céline Dion’s My Heart Will Go On , and Snoop and Marha’s video starts with the distinctive chords of the song. The imagery is on-point too, recalling one of the film’s most famous scenes.
Jack and Rose, meet Martha and Snoop.
They settle into the pose that Jack and Rose struck on the bow of the Titanic , only their pose takes place in the kitchen. It isn’t long before things transform, though.
I’m…frying?
Remember when Rose, played by Kate Winslett, said she felt like she was flying? Snoop reprises this, only he says, “I’m frying…Martha, I’m frying!” Get it? They do a cooking show, so yeah.
They’re on a boat.
If you were having trouble keeping up with the subtle Titanic references, the counter they stand behind transforms into a boat. Snoop’s also holding some deep fryer baskets because, you know, that whole line about frying.
It should be an awesome season.
Season three, which launches on April 3, will reportedly have a star-studded guest list, including names like Method Man, Matthew McConaughey, the Jonas Brothers, Jimmy Kimmel, Paris Hilton and more.
It’s got us geared up for season three.
It might be a bit of a goofy way to promote things, but I like the lack of seriousness. Snoop Dogg and Martha Stewart are an awesome pairing, and we can’t wait to see what they’ve been up to lately. Check out the full video below!
