In an interview with Sports Illustrated, Martha spoke about her friend Snoop Dogg who coincidentally texted her in the middle of her interview. “Snoop!” she said while pulling her phone out excitedly. “Let’s see. ‘Love you! Coming right up.” The 81-year-old laughed loudly as she read out loud, “Let’s see. ‘Love you! Coming right up.'”
Martha revealed what she found charming about the rapper in their initial meeting. She recalled, “Well, Snoop came on my show, and what was really charming about Snoop, first of all, was his giggle.

Martha recalled, “All he did was smoke, and everybody was in such a good mood … we were all roasting each other. And luckily, Snoop’s secondhand smoke really kind of eased the pain for me a lot.” Martha called the incident “hysterical,” saying she decided to “go with the flow.”
“After like 6 billion views around the world, it turned out to be one of the best things, and it cemented my relationship with Snoop,” she added.
