'Being voted unsexiest woman alive hurt so much', says Sarah Jessica Parker

As Carrie in 'Sex and the City' she might not always get the right man. And being voted "unsexiest woman alive" was a hard pill to swallow.

But in real life actress Sarah Jessica Parker hasn't gone home totally empty-handed, having raked in an estimated £12.5m since the end of the popular TV series.

But Parker, 43, has had a hard time dealing with the news that men do not find her as attractive as advertisers do, claiming the result of the Maxim poll was "brutal" and also affected her husband, actor Matthew Broderick.

No one will understand this, but I guess the inside of her mouth is all chewed up over this.

Jan. 11, 2001 | If there's anyone out there who's just desperate to know what the inside of Sarah Jessica Parker's mouth is like, it's your lucky day.

The "Sex and the City" star wants the world to know that her inner cheeks are bitten, blistered and bloody, thanks to her nasty habit of chewing on the inside of her own mouth. And try as she might, she can't get herself to stop chomping -- her New Year's resolution to kick the habit bit the dust just 20 minutes into 2001.

"It's born of insecurity and lack of self-esteem and anxiety about the world," Parker tells the World Entertainment News Network. "It's like a minefield in there."

She's pretty bummed that she wasn't able to sink her teeth into the new year with a clear cheek. "I'm very disappointed in my character," she says. "I'm not trying to kick heroin or anything really serious. It seems relatively small."

Too funny!

In a way I do kind of feel sorry for her. Voting for the least sexy is a pretty meanspirited thing to do in the first place.

helen thomas would get my vote, if she qualified as a female.

Women see all the hot men she's dated in her life and think there has to be something there.

Plus, she has an incredible figure.

I thank God every day that some gay guy invented makeup...

SJP is one of those women who are considered beautiful by only other women.

I think she has a good body, though.

"Did someone call me???"

[Gay State Conservative]

Although she's not the prettiest woman alive she's far from being the ugliest,IMO.And as far as “sexy” goes...judging by her looks (which is all I can do...I'm clueless as to her her personality) she's also far from being the “unsexiest”...IMO.

BWAHHAHAHAA!!! I was gonna post the Peter Griffin quote “She looks like a foot.”

[gundog]

Ron Jeremy without the moustache.

[PLMerite]

She’s not unattractive. She does need to dress better and smile more. Smiling does wonders for attractiveness.

When did Uncle Fester get a sex-change?

[redstates4ever]

LMAO!!!

[Mr. Jeeves]

I didn’t know she was in Lord of the Rings... but there she is, dressed as Legolas with the hair and everything.

Legolas has a much prettier face. ;)

SJP has been with the same guy for what...ten, fifteen years? The TRULY unsexy women are the Paris Hiltons of the world. She’s as skanky as it gets, and there’s nothing sexy about being a total skank.
