Alan Cumming, the host of the popular reality series The Traitors, is eyeing Martha Stewart to join him for Season 3. Cumming has been contemplating the upcoming season and believes Stewart, with her resourcefulness and skills, would make a fantastic traitor on the show. He recalled a past experience on The Martha Stewart Show where Stewart's ingenuity left a lasting impression on him.
The Traitors features a group of game players known as 'traitors' who must eliminate other contestants without revealing their identities to win the grand prize. Cumming expressed his confidence in Stewart's ability to excel in this role, describing her as firm and a temptress.
Stewart is no stranger to reality-competition programming, having previously hosted The Apprentice: Martha Stewart. The Traitors, renewed for a third season, is in the early stages of casting, with plans to introduce a diverse mix of contestants.
Cumming hopes for increased LGBTQ+ representation among the contestants, emphasizing the importance of diversity on the show. The current season of The Traitors features a varied cast, including Phaedra Parks, Shereé Whitfield, Sandra Diaz-Twine, Kate Chastain, Trishelle Cannatella, John Bercow, Mercedes “MJ” Javid, Chris “CT” Tamburello, and Peter Weber.
New episodes of The Traitors Season 2 air on Thursday nights on Peacock, with discussions already underway for the next season's lineup.
