Martha Stewart is no more impressed with Gwyneth Paltrow’s efforts to be a lifestyle guru than she is with Taylor Schilling’s efforts to play a woman’s prison inmate in Orange is the New Black.
Stewart has been the reigning queen of the lifestyle and homemaking business for decades.

She said, “All of these things I thought made me dramatic or demanding or high…
