Grazia: How Sarah Jessica Parker Ended Sex And The City
SARAH Jessica Parker is telling Grazia readers: “How I ended that feud.”
The that is underlined. It is not this feud nor is it the other feud. It is that feud. When it comes to feuding, Sarah Jessica is one up on Cliff Barnes and JR Ewing. If thar’s a-feudin’ to be done, Sarah Jessica Parker’s the gal to do it.
And turning the page, we read “SJP: ‘HOW I ENDED THAT FEUD”’ and learn that SJP “couldn’t be happier”.
Many feuds end with one party enacting a revenge killing, a Japanese katakiuchi, an eye for an eye, a Moldavian massacre.
“I really wanted it to happen,” says SJP, and it was a bitter pill to swallow that it didn’t happen for so long.”
Such is way of a vendetta. Patience is all. You may wait one, two or three generations, but blood will out. Blood will be spilled. You will have your day.
So here is SJP stood in NY, meeting the SATC gang. Can you repair the damage of a friendship lost? Can you be bosom buddies again. Can you… etc. etc.
“Making the show was one of the best experiences of my professional life,” says SJP. “It gave single women a voice and showed that being single is not a disease.”
Those among us who stand in the precinct on a Friday night and hear single women crack out a lusty rendition of It’s Raining Men on their way to the STD clinic, may question SJP’s pioneering credentials.
But SJP is in conciliatory mood, and we do not want to raise her hackles, lest she begin a feud with us…
TTFN…

Rab:
“An affront to feminism, it taught that liberation was women aping the worst aspects of men whilst holding the stereotypical feminine side of blindly consuming all that glitters.”
So being sexual/frankly discussing sex are some of the worst aspects of men? I’m not sure I agree completely, but men are still allowed to do it and it is “accepted” so, in the feminist way, shouldn’t women be free to take on aspects as well? I don’t know, I suppose people have different ideas of what exactly “feminism” entails. I’m not a man nor do I live the ever-consumptious lives of one of the SATC girls but I look at the show as entertainment and to each their own (it is a bit of an after-school type show but for adults because it addresses topics some people are wary/shy about bringing up sometimes, that’s just my opinion though).
And yes, I’ve watched the show and probably will see the movie eventually.

Insidious tosh. Promotion and glorification of vacuous nonsense masquerading as empowerment.
An affront to feminism, it taught that liberation was women aping the worst aspects of men whilst holding the stereotypical feminine side of blindly consuming all that glitters.
Its main character was also the most self-satisfied, pseudo-intellectual, arrogant horse.

Thanks for setting the record straight Girly Girl Chat. It’s keenly evident your faithful nightly devotion to Sex AND the City is paying off in spades.

As Carrie Bradshaw would say when stumbling upon a pair of shiny new Manolo Blahnik’s: “Hello Lover” …..Personally, I can’t WAIT for this movie - I watch reruns of SITC every night without fail - what a great NY chick show……
For the record it was Samantha - Kim Cattrall who got so greedy and walked off the show and the movie set. She was a raving B’tch from all accounts - demanding as much money as SJP when she was clearly not the stars show…..Carrie was. Oh, I hope that Carrie and Big finally get married!

That’s a lovely picture of SJP you’ve got there.
Much better than some of the ones I’ve seen recently in which she looks a bit -you know - ‘horsey’.
