Sarah Jessica Parker Answers The Age-Old Question… Is She Really ‘A Carrie’?


If ever you find yourself at a loose end in a conversation with someone you barely know, pivoting to which Sex And The City character they most identify with is usually a good way to swerve an awkward silence – even more than 20 years after the original show aired.

Sarah Jessica Parker recently shared her take on the debate during a video interview with W, and her answer was a little more nuanced than simply “oh, I’m such a Carrie”.

“I would say, probably like many women, I’m probably a combination of Carrie, in terms of some of her interests, and certainly the way she feels about New York City, and in a far less fevered way, her affection for shoes and fashion,” she began.

“But Carrie’s is heightened and otherworldly.”

However, SJP added that “as a wife and mother, there are times that I appreciate the things that Charlotte says, even though she says them in an often sometimes hysterical – literally hysterical – [way]”, and there are also “things about Miranda that I really appreciate”.

“So I think a bit of each,” she concluded. “But I think there’s a kind of sentimentality about Carrie that can muddy the waters even for me.”
