Sarah Jessica Parker was on the Conan O’Brien show last night to promote her new movie Smart People, which opens in the US tonight. Conan brought up the fact that unlike her character Carrie Bradshaw on Sex and the City, Sarah Jessica isn’t comfortable talking to her friends about sex. She tried to describe why she gets nervous and embarrassed and avoids discussing intimate issues with her friends, and her face and neck got flushed and she had some trouble even talking about it in general terms:
Sarah Jessica Parker: “I am not comfortable having any kind of intimate conversation at all… I don’t like the tone and I don’t like the subject. It’s not like I think others who do it are morally corrupt and vulgar and crass. I’m just simply embarrassed.
“I don’t even want to think about what they’re talking about. And sometimes when I feel the landscape changes and all the heads move in, literally a friend will say ‘Oh wait, Sarah Jessica’s here.’ You know, and then they will talk about the primary or some other less ribald, salty, cheeky…”
Conan O’Brien: “Even the way you’re talking about it, it’s clear you’re not comfortable. You’re using 18th century language! ‘This cheeky display of emotion between man and his lady!’”
Sarah Jessica Parker: “Look I’m getting a rash… I wish I was inclined, because people love the topic, people like to be intimate…”
[Transcribed from Sarah Jessica Parker’s appearance on the Conan O’Brien show, 4/10/08, video below]
Parker said she has no moral objections to people talking about it, and that it’s a good thing that other people feel comfortable enough to discuss it.
Given how much trouble Parker had talking about sex on Conan you have to give her credit for getting over that and being able to have the frank sexual discussions that were common on Sex and The City. She must be able to separate that from her personal issues talking about it, because she looked completely mortified describing her problem with sex talk to Conan.
Parker’s “Sex and The City” costar and rumored on-set rival, Kim Cattrall, has authored two frank books on sex, “Satisfaction: The Art of the Female Orgasm

oh please she make a fortune off sex
in sex in the city the woman also had high profile lovers Robert Downey Jr , John kennedy Jr
I hate it when ho’s get all coy in their middle age but aren’t above exploiting the $ in Sex case in point, Madonna. -
Daisy, Sarah Jessica Parker and Carrie Bradshow are not one and the same. It’s called acting. On SitC she was READING a script. That’s a little different from talking about your personal life.
-
I’d break my ankles trying to walk in those shoes
-
point taken she is private about her personal life. till her sex tape leaks out ( just Kidding ! )
-
“Sarah Jessica Parker? Her face looks like a foot.”

Couldn’t agree more with you Megan, and for the record, I do think she’s gorgeous, her slightly bigger nose can’t change that.
-
Everyone has the right to their opinion, but sometimes people are just shitty, bottom line. I think she’s lovely, inside and out. I get so bored with the perfect ones, I don’t care if I never see another Marisa Miller post. Besides, SJP has an AMAZING body.
-
And those shoes are fucking awesome, even though I could never wear them either.
-
OMG! I want those shoes so bad it hurts…and it looks like it would but I don’t care. Also, I love the fact that SJP never got a nose job. It makes me respect her as a person…and yeah, she’s got that killer body. Lucky her!
-
what is that thing on her chin……..it makes her look like the witch in snow white
but she seems a sweetie though
-
god she is adorable
-
It’s Sex AND the City, not Sex IN the city.
-
I can’t believe that!
-
She’s always had that stance; she made comments like that years ago. She claims to be very modest and is uncomfortable wearing bikinis at the beach and only wears one-pieces. If you look at her red carpet and street photos, she usually isn’t wearing anything skanky.
Apparently there’s a lot of things she’ll do for her roles that she doesn’t do otherwise. She wears a gold bikini in some of the opening sequences of Sex and the City.

Those legs are begging for hosiery.And yes she does look like a Foot!

scout7pg, shut up, she’s an actress, she doesn’t look like a supermodel, what’s the big deal? She’s a lovely woman who is very talented, and it’s nice to see unique-looking people in Hollywood rather than the usual cut and paste face that all the women seem to have.
