Sarah Jessica Parker was on Jimmy Kimmel Live yesterday and she talked about making the pilot for Sex and the City.
Parker was always working at the time, and she wanted to stay that way. When she was offered the role of Carrie Bradshaw, she shot the pilot for the then male centric HBO and forgot about it. Then one day, she got a call from the network telling her that they were picking up the show to series. She didn’t know if she still wanted to do it, until several people convinced her to do it.
She went to the set on Day One and never looked back. She loved the experience that truly made her star.
Imagine if she turned it down, Lisa Edelstein would’ve probably gotten the role that was technically hers.
Whether it was Porky’s, one of Kim Cattrall‘s first roles, or Sex and the City, her most famous one, the actress has been seen acting along with an erect wood. Even when she is not acting, she can’t help herself. Here she is a hugging a tree, proving that she truly is a method actor. Although this one might leave her with an STD, Splinter To Dermis!
Remember when one of your favorite scenes in the Sex and the City movie was when we got to see Gilles Marini completely naked? It has been 8 years since that film came out and now he is sharing another photo of his cock. Granted this one is not the same as the one we saw in 2008, but it is just as beautiful.

Before Chandra Wilson was the Chief of Surgery on Grey’s Anatomy, she was a beat cop on Sex and the City. She looks the same now as she did when she was 32 in that 2002 episode.
Believe or not had Sarah Jessica Parker said no to Sex and the City, Lisa Edelstein was all set to play the role. She told Access Hollywood, the contract was signed and she was ready to go. But as we know SJP said yes and Edelstein wound up starring in House and Girlfriend’s Guide to Divorce years later.
Could you imagine if Sarah Jessica said no and Lisa was Carrie Bradshaw? Would that mean that Parker would’ve been Cuddy? Could you imagine how hot things would’ve been between House and her?
In the long run, everything happened just as it was supposed to because I can’t imagine anyone else but them playing their roles. Can you?
