Sarah Jessica Parker Hates Samantha Jones, Jess Seinfeld; Doesn't Mind Streep's Kid

Ok, so some gays sat next to Sarah Jessica Parker and her gays at a restaurant in New York the other day during lunch time. They learned the following things:

SJP does not wear Bitten (her Steve & Barry's line) or Covet (her new fragrance).
SJP "never forgive what she [Kim Cattrall] did." Also, everyone on the cast of SaTC hates Cattrall. Also, SJP took KC to lunch in an attempt to make things less awkward between them. It only sorta worked.
SJP hates Jessica Seinfeld, even though they, like, both vacation in the Hamptons and shit. SJP thinks Jessica is a social climber. No shit.
SJP does not hate Meryl Streep's daughter, actress Mamie Gummer, even though Gummer cornered SJP hubby Matthew Broderick at a party and pulled an "OMG-I-love-Carrie-Bradshaw-SOOOOOO-much!" which both M. Brod and SJP think is like a totally annoying thing to have done to them. But because she's Streep Spawn, it's all good.

The end. You may now go back to contemplating just how monumental the opening of the Sex and the City movie is going to be and how our lives will never be the same afterwards.

Last night when we couldn't sleep we decided...

Last night when we couldn't sleep we decided to engage in one of the favorite activities of insomniacs everywhere: Internet stalking vis a vis MySpace! Only, we didn't even get to examining ex-boyfriends' MySpace pages, so distracted were we by the large announcement on the MySpace homepage that not only did Sarah Jessica Parker's fragrance Covet have its own MySpace page, but that it was the featured MySpace page of the day! We had to look. And we couldn't look away. It seems as if the page was created both by and for a group of 10-year olds. There are chances to play investigator and track down the perfume thief, create your very own inspector ID card — complete with photo from your MySpace page, and way, way too many really, really bad pics of SJP. Seriously, it kept us busy from at least 4 to 5 am. It's horrific. There is even a link labeled "Covet Yourself" which sounds weirdly masturbatory and we were too scared to check that one out, though. So maybe you will and will report back to us? [Covet @ MySpace]

Stop The Presses! Sarah Jessica Did NOT Exploit Her "Sex And The City" Character For New Fragrance!

Yesterday, we bitched about the news of Sarah Jessica Parker's new, sassy-sounding scent Covet, accusing the actress of cashing in on her years as Sex And The City's stylish, lovable goofball Carrie Bradshaw in the fragrance's new ad campaign.

But we were wrong! Or so says Sarah Jessica, who says she finds all the SATC-derived offers that come her way just so, so distasteful:

"There have been so many opportunities to trade on Carrie Bradshaw, and I decline those so much because they really feel vulgar to me," she said. "The difference between this and taking advantage of an audience that way is that we're not ending with this romance; we're not telling a story. We're not throwing a man in there. We're making this about your own, individual sort of unleashed act."

Get that? Think of Sarah Jessica's latest performance as a stylish, adorable klutz not as Carrie Bradshaw, fashion-obsessive but as Carrie Bradshaw: Deranged but well-dressed spinster!

Sarah Jessica Parker: Still Confusing Herself With Carrie Bradshaw

Anna — Thu, 12 Apr 2007 12:49:21 EDT

Almost a decade after Patricia Field made her into a style icon to millions of young women, Sarah Jessica Parker is continuing to torture the innocents of America with her, em, "contributions" to the fashion and beauty industries. Parker, having already slapped her name on a fragrance for Coty and an apparel line for retailer Steve & Barry's, is coming out with a new scent called Covet that will be available beginning in July. And she's got a charming new TV ad to go along with it!

A TV commercial, shot by Jean-Paul Goude in the Place Vendôme in Paris, depicts Parker bashing in a window with a stiletto, attempting to get to a factice of her fragrance. Before she can spritz even a drop, however, the gendarmes have the brass handcuffs on our heroine, and she's off to a jail cell. Clad in a couture Christian Lacroix ballgown, however, she's clearly the best-dressed woman on the prison block.

Window-shopping in Paris? Stilettos? Couture ballgowns? Sounds a lot like a scene from the series finale of a certain hit HBO series. Not that we'd ever accuse Sarah Jessica of being derivative or anything!
