'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.

(snip)

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.

I'd have voted for Kelly Osbourne. But that's just me.

With that horse face, she could be a Kerry.

I would hit it.

[cripplecreek]

She had looks in the early days but she shouldn’t despair, she still blessed with all her stupidity.

[oust the louse]

I would hit it....

with a board?....

I’m sure she’s (SJP) nice enough in person, but she’s no beauty by a long shot.

Making 25 million dollars should ease the pain!

re: that first pic

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

I always thought her body was her biggest asset. Of course at my age she looks pretty good. At my age I don’t see many ugly women any more.

[misterrob]

Nice horsey!!!

I never understood how she got her second job...unless horses watched TV.

For whatever reason, I think women think she is good looking (maybe because she is thin or maybe because she is famous). Most men find her stunning . . . stunning as in so unattractive they freeze for a moment before they flee or change the channel.

[Ditter]

Since I am a woman I don't have a real clear picture what makes a woman sexy but I can sure tell when I woman is ugly and SJP is defiantly UGLY.

[The_Republican]

Nope. Maybe on a board...

[Thrownatbirth]

also affected her husband, actor Matthew Broderick.

Yikes! Grab his car keys.

The problem isn’t that she’s hideous. She’s not. She has a good figure and a plain, but not hideous face.

The problem is that she is frequently cast as some kind of hot sex-kitten — and acts like she thinks she is — when she isn’t. That annoys people. The “unsexiest” vote resulted from that annoyance, IMHO.
