Martha Stewart Name-Drops 'Especially Attractive' Hollywood Actors

Martha Stewart  has worked with the best of the best, but there are a few A-list celebs that really left her feeling starstruck. 

In a new interview with PEOPLE  published Wednesday, Sept. 18, the lifestyle guru and cookbook author boasted about the "fabulous movie stars" she's had the pleasure of hosting on her TV shows over the years—including some "pretty attractive" actors in Hollywood. 

But, as Stewart, 83, admitted, there were a few heartthrobs in particular that really had her smitten. 

Among them is none other than Russell Crowe , who appeared as a guest on her show in 2008. 

"When Russell Crowe came on, he was still fit and gorgeous, just having done maybe Gladiator. He was pretty attractive," Stewart confessed. 

Additionally, she said, "Matthew McConaughey, he still is pretty attractive." Stewart previously hosted the  Wedding Planner  actor on her  VH1 cooking show  with  Snoop Dogg in 2019. 

And last, but not least, Stewart name-dropped Top Gun  actor  Tom Cruise , who she said "was so cute and attractive" in his earlier films. 

"There's all those memories of especially attractive actors," she further added. 

But even after coming face-to-face with some of Hollywood's hottest hunks, Stewart said she's "not very fearful" when it comes to being in the limelight or interacting with other A-listers. 

"I like intermingling with people," she confessed. "I like going on television. I like being interviewed. I like all that stuff." 

Stewart's career in the spotlight has certainly served her well, as she is now gearing up for the release of her 100th cookbook, Martha: The Cookbook , officially dropping on Nov. 12.
