Sex And The City Ruined Sarah Jessica Parker's Body

Aug 2, 2007 AT 12:15 pm

Who would have thought that Sex and the City had ANY negative impact on Sarah Jessica Parker. She is who she is today because of that amazing show. It's all about the heels... too many of them in fact. Sarah's knees are shot because of the endless time she spent trotting around in stilettos.

"I used to spend 18 to 20 hours filming in heels. I've totally destroyed my body by running and dancing in heels. My knees are shot."

And get this! Carrie, I mean Sarah, doesn't like Cosmopolitans!!!

And Parker admits she isn't a fan of character Carrie's signature beverage - the vodka and Cointreau combination of the Cosmopolitan cocktail. She explains, "I've had many Cosmopolitans sent across to me in bars, but I always think, 'God, if I could get this into a bottle, I could clean so much stuff at home.'"

Did I ever mention that I was an extra on that show? I might have a long time ago. You saw my pink scarf in the .005 seconds I was on the screen. But I got to shoot a scene with her which was something to always remember.

It was "To Market, to Market" Season 6 Ep. 1.. Carrie has overslept and rushes like crazy trough bogged down traffic, she has the honor to open Wall Street by ringing the bell...

Ok.. I know way to much about SATC -- I will re-watch the episode to see you or your scarf in it!!
