Lifestyle icon Martha Stewart celebrates her 83rd birthday today, making her nearly two years older than President Joe Biden, a year older than Harrison Ford, and a full decade younger than Rupert Murdoch. 

Despite this, she appears more joyful than many of her peers. Could it be because she marked her special day 1) in Paris, 2) at the Olympics, and 3) surrounded by Snoop Dogg, a Muppet, and a macaron cake? It’s possible!

Stewart, who humorously remarked in 2022 that she was too busy to date, spent the day before her birthday making the interview rounds. 

She appeared on Access Hollywood with Snoop Dogg, the ever-present Paris Olympics enthusiast and “ambassador of happiness,” with whom she co-hosted a TV show in the 2010s.

During the Friday interview, Martha Stewart and Snoop Dogg's on-screen segment was unexpectedly joined by Cookie Monster, a Muppet known for his interactions with John Oliver, Sesame Street's Big Bird, and E.T. 

However, Cookie Monster's appearance on Friday was friendly and non-contentious, even though he sneaked up behind Stewart as the interview continued.

“Martha! Hi! Happy birthday,” the Muppet greeted, as shown in a TikTok video shared by Access Hollywood. 

“Cookie Monster, what's happening baby?” Snoop exclaimed.

After calling out “bring it in” to someone off-camera, the Muppet gave Stewart a cone-shaped cake made of macarons, a meringue-based treat that was famously liked by French Queen Catherine de' Medici.

On Saturday, her actual birthday, Stewart continued to work diligently. Accompanied by Snoop once more, the supposed Trump bird-flipper arrived in Versailles dressed in full equestrian attire, where they both offered commentary for that day's Olympic dressage event.
