ALL eyes are once again on homemaker diva Martha Stewart who was released from prison on Friday after serving a five-month term at the Alderson Federal Prison in West Virginia for conspiracy, obstruction of justice and lying to federal investigators. 

She is not out of the woods and will have to spend another five months under house arrest in her US$16mil 153-acre farmhouse estate in Bedford, New York. She is only allowed out for 48 hours a week for specific reasons.
