Yes you read that headline correctly, I do not want to stick it to SJP. Obviously, there is her resemblance to Dee Snyder. It is well documented so I won’t waste ink on it, but it really is uncanny. Also, in Flight of the Navigator - she kind of shouts out Twisted Sister - almost foreshadowing the hilarious reality.
Maybe the real problem is that I can’t divorce SJP from Carrie Bradshaw. Sex and The City never entertained me and as a straight teenage guy living in New Haven, it didn’t have much for me to relate to. And that would be fine, if there weren’t an ‘epic’ movie being shoved in my face.
Parker hit the career-making-role jackpot with Carrie - but it’s a double-edged sword. While she’ll be remembered for popularizing Cosmopolitans and Manolos - she’ll also be associated with Carrie’s narcissism and selfishness. As occasional AS contributor Kirsten ‘The Kitchen’ notes, “…whenever one of the other girls complains about her life, Carrie finds a way to make a pun and bring the conversation back to herself.”
Perhaps I’m just too hung up on SATC, but I’m sorry SJP: I do not want to stick it to you. My sincerest apologies.
