Live from New York, it was not Martha Stewart. During a recent appearance on “The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon,” the lifestyle expert was asked if she’d ever host “Saturday Night Live.” “I wanted to and they asked me as I was coming out of Alderson, that camp that I was in for a while, and my parole officer wouldn’t give me the time to do it,” she told a laughing Fallon. The remark tickled the late-night host given that the “camp” was Stewart’s 2004 stint in Alderson Federal Prison related to a stock trade. Stewart explained that she was only allowed to be out of the house for eight hours a day. “And the parole officer said ‘No?’ ” Fallon asked.
