Here's a Macy's commercial that pits Martha Stewart against Marcus Samuelsson to satisfying and hilarious ends. After the two compare awards bling (three Beard Awards to Samuelsson, 18 Emmys for Stewart), Stewart really digs in deep: she makes fun of Samuelsson's cooking. To her 2.5 million followers on Twitter. Burn. Samuelsson, by the way, recently did an interview with the Wall Street Journal in which he said "he rejects 95 percent of the opportunities that come his way" but that "he does like to focus on ventures that speak to his key interests." Like tea, for example, or vodka, or, you know, massive department store chains.
