Did Sarah Jessica Parker Find the Fountain of Youth While Out-of-Town in Boston?

She's turning into Iggy Pop!

I couldn't believe that photo. She can't be happy with it.

Or how the article keeps saying how she and Matthew are NEVER seen together by anyone in NYC.

Whoa, she's turning into Baby Jane Hudson!

That long hair does her no favors

B/W photography isn't her friend in this case. Too many shadows. I don't think she looks terrible but it's harsh. Sarah needs to stop with that dark overlined eye look and ditch the long hair.

Is Matthew supposed to be feeding her that bucket of flowers?

Smoking and anorexia.

I kind of love that she isn't botoxed and juvadermed to high heaven, though.

She looks like Barbra Streisand...... an even fuglier and older version of Babs that is.

If this picture doesn’t say EVERYTHING there’s to say about this particular marriage, then I don’t know what does.

Jesus.

She actually needs Botox

That was mean of NY Times to run that

lord I hope that's just bad lighting!

Doesn't Sarah know that there are a million videos on YouTube with makeup tips for women over 50? She's pretty much got every single "don't" going on here...too much eye makeup settling into crows feet, long, straggly hair emphasizing sagging jowls, dark eyeliner going completely around the eye. Time for an update, dearie.

Here is a link to the article.

The picture is H U G E in the story.

They should be doing "Who is afraid of Virginia Woolf" - given the picture, that somehow seems more appropriate

This is a joke, right? She looks like a HAG!

I actually thought she looked very pretty throughout SATC's run. She has not aged well and by that I don't mean she has (obviously) stayed away from botox and fillers. She doesn't look good for her age, either.

I can't help but think that Plaza Suite is going to seem very dated in 2020.

I hope they are doing it as a period piece. Not that SJP gets those anymore.

you CAN be too rich and too thin.......

Even SJP is quoted in the article as saying the two of them haven't been out to dinner together in ages. Are they not even trying to beard anymore?

Yeesh, bullet dodged!

R15 I thought it had that vibe, too.

But I bet SJP wouldn't do that play because she wants to be loved.

R21 Tell me about it!

That photo feels like ironic performance art.

My sister does that horrible black eyeliner, too. She has blue eyes, and as she's aged, they've gotten smaller. I think she thinks the black makes them pop and look bigger. No one in the family has the guts to tell her she looks like a fucking raccoon. The woman is a ball buster.

She would look so much better with about 30 lbs . Why do those older hollywood bitches think being anorexic is attractive ?

I can honestly say she's never looked lovelier.

God, Broderick was so adorable in Ferris Bueller's Day Off-it just proves, the young, cute ones age the worst.

I think she looks pretty great for her age.

If she were 94, R29.

But WHY does she keep doing the straight, long hair/black liner thing? She really looks in the mirror and thinks it's a great look for her? How is that possible?

I know the joke is overdone, but I nearly spit my coffee when I read R5...

[quote] I wish her a warm hand on her opening.

I'm not grabbing that one!

Oh wow, she's looks awful, and she's always been pretty butt ugly. Poor thing

[quote]just proves, the young, cute ones age the worst.

Hold my beer.

I love her ensemble.

Why did she marry Broderick, again????

[quote] SJP looks rested and flower-fresh

If you think that is "flower-fresh," I'd hate to see your garden.

[quote]"rested and flower=fresh"

Serving Daily Mail snarky caption realness.

Usually she looks 20 years older than she is. She should do whatever needs to be done.

I saw Plaza Suite in Boston, and its actually quite good. They do play it as a period piece(s), which adds to the fun. It's probably one of Simon's best comedies, maybe after Sunshine Boys. The set and costumes were gorgeous.

R1 for the win!

My first thought at seeing photo was "since when did Matthew Broderick get married to Iggy Pop?

Why do a pic like that to promote a COMEDY???

Anyone want to buy a townhouse in West Village?

The only thing that would make that pic better is if SJP had a cigarette dangling out of the side of her mouth.

R4

Honey those are extensions!

Broderick looks like an old Lesbian in that photo in r24.

^ should be r14

For a long time Broderick had grown fat, but he lost most of the weight and has been working out. However, he forever lost his chin.

Matthew Broderick looks like Martin Mull in R43’s pic.

That's the most interesting picture I've ever seen of her.

She looks like a seriously artsy French or Italian actress (of a certain age).

It certainly gives off an "It's 10:30. I'm on my 3rd glass of wine and the fucking meth dealer is late again" feeling.

I had to laugh reading that article.

I wonder how often those salt-of-the-earth two take a public bus when a NYT writer ISN'T with them to note that they do.

On the other hand, Matthew in OP's pic looks like Kathy Bates.

The interior in OPs pic is so 1962.

Isn't SJP a bit long in the tooth for tight leather pants?

R54 That pic was taken in 2020 at the Copley Plaza hotel in Boston.

Take it up with them.

"Hello,...Copley Plaza Boston?" "Your interiors are so 1962" "Hello....Hello?

R56 Are you happy now?

But, I've NEVER been fat! NEVAH!!!

That interior isn’t anywhere near “1962”. It’s just cheap, assembly line from China or Indonesia, run of the mill, crap furniture people buy and think “Wow, this is so nice!” And look, for some, it is, so I’m not knocking it. But “1962, it is not, R57.

R50, spot on - agree w/ you 100%

The Copley Plaza hangs pictures like that? Uncentered, over lamps with crooked shades?

Those pictures were bugging the shit out of me, too.

Yikes! Tan mom has really let herself go!

R59 Wrong.

Actually, I work in art direction (and I was around in 1962 but that's another matter). That interior as seen in OPs photo is very, very much of that era for luxury hotel interiors..

The star-burst mirror is a classic for the era. The wood trimmed scalloped headboard. The form of the lamp. The reproduction comodino and bench. The trellis design of the carpet (granted it has had a revival but it's a design that was popular back then). The stylized illustrations of European landmarks. All say early '60s.

It looks like a hotel room Roger Sterling would take a whore.

It looks like a hotel room Roger Sterling would take a whore.

I still like her. I've been to her hometown.

In the wise words of Lorelei Gilmore “And that’s why you don’t go to bed with your make up on. “

SJP in August 2004 at GAP!

Neigh! Neigh!

SJP responds to comments about her photos in the NYT:

She looks great. who's her embalmer?

Yeah, R50, if that "certain age" is somewhere around 98.

The photo was certainly MEANT to evoke something akin to George and Martha; it looks like the kind of strange, quasi-witty photo a Broadway couple would pose for in LIFE in 1962.

It's a little weird that everyone here thinks it's just a bad picture that accidentally looks dated and crazy. It was staged to look like that. You may not agree with the aesthetics but let's not go pretending like they're just weird ugly people who were caught in a candid snap that revealed their hideousness.

The best the bitch has looked in years.

We know Matthew Broderick is a GAY boy. Is SJP a lesbo?

She looks every day of her age. And ironically, Ive always thought that horse faced woman aged rather well.

WE FUCKING HATE SARAH JESSICA PARKER!

A no-talent, social climbing, asexual, purse puppy’ing fag hag of the highest degree, with a face only a mare could love. She’s got a work ethic and the attitude of a back-stabbing Cunt, that’s how she’s succeeded. If she has any actual talent I’ve yet to witness it. Truly an American example of a media creation and someone who doesn’t deserve what they have.

I ❤️ Sarah

r77, please take your meds, kiss your mother good night, and go back down to your basement and read your romance novels until you sleep. Thank you.

Bad lighting..

I think it’s a cool picture, very Diane Arbus.

More like she tripped on the spigot of grisly.

It must really suck that everyone knows Matthew cheated on her with a 25 year old and yet she stayed....They look old and miserable and completely disconnected from one another in the photos in that article. And yes 31, she is clinging to that same hair and makeup look for dear life. She's the woman we all know from high school who still wears feathered hair and Aquanet with blue eye shadow.

R31^

Her last movie bombed so bad no one has even heard of it.

How are the tickets selling?

I agree the pic gives a WAOVW feel.

Imagine the tons of makeup they're going to have to apply to her face with a trowel and all of the special lighting they'll have to use once she reprises her role of Sarah Sanderson for Hocus Pocus 2.

I think she's a swan.

Broderick would probably look fine if he lost a little weight. He's been looking like a penguin for over a decade now. He went from cute leading man in the 80's/90's to quirky character guy who's been playing the same role for the past 20 years.

Exactly.

The photo is too smart for today's sensibilities. Goes right over most people's heads.

It's the kind of photo you would have seen of Uta Hagan and Herbert Berghof.

R77 = Jackie On Assistance or Caroline Bessette Kennedy, typing and posting from the great beyond.

A list of other possible posters @ R77, from DL’s “gated” community include:

*. Matthew Broderick

*. Madge

*. RDJ

*. All theatre/Broadway queens who are on DL’s cc-op board.

*. Former crew members and featured guest starts of SATC

*. Ivanka Trump (who couldn’t even beard for prime dick, despite multiple plastic surgeries, wealth, and access, & was forced to settle for Jared Kushner. That said, at least Kushner’s far more preferable than settling for Steven Miller. Ugh 😑 ).

[quote] darting out after 30 minutes, and leaving the girl “passed out on her bed in her panties

r83 MB is apparently a lot better in bed than I expected. Or they started watching Godzilla and she OD'd to get it to end.

Call back?

She was pretty when she was young , ya bunch of haters . And she fucked some prime hollywood dick . I like her ,I always have,but I do wish she'd gain about 30 lbs.

R94 yeah I wish she’d gain weight too... in lacquered wood and brass handles.

R93 I was just going to post that!

(R95) Oh that's terrible...

[quote]The photo is too smart for today's sensibilities. Goes right over most people's heads.

Yes, because SJP WANTED to look ugly.

You have to get up pretty early in the crack den to slip something past you.

I guess the picture in the attic got destroyed.

She was not "pretty," R94.

She always has been jolie laide, which is why she was tolerated and encouraged by arts and NYC sets.

And now she looks like what happens with jolie laide women. Same with Anjelica Huston, but at least she's the High Witch of the old Hollywood Coven, which gives her immense power.

Sarah J. can only do.... what we see in the NYT here.

R94, R100 she looked cute when she was with Robert Downey Jr...which was over 30 years ago...

Definitely considered 'pretty' back then compared to now, that's for sure.

She HAS to stop drinking -- and smoking. And yeah, that straight long hair just elongates her already LONG face...

See hairstyle in R91's photo. Proves my point.

I think it`s a promo shot from the upcoming Sex and the Senior Citizens' Home.

A color shot.

Karma face.

She should fire her publicist immediately.

R83 - Matthew cheated on Sarah with a 25 year old BOY TOY.

Enjoy Being A Girl! (At GAP in Spring 2005!)

Without filming Kim Cattrall separately and digitally cutting and pasting her into every scene featuring SJP, there's no way in Hell that Sex and The City 3 is going to get made. That and the poor reception of the second film.

The amusing thing to me is that R93's pic was from an episode where SJP was MORTIFIED that all of Manhattan saw a pic of her looking haggard.

But that fake pic looks better than the real pic all of Manhattan DID see.

Whether you think SJP was pretty or not, R109 proves that she did.

[quote]Yes, because SJP WANTED to look ugly. You have to get up pretty early in the crack den to slip something past you.

You're wrong about that.

She looks exactly like she wanted to in that photo. She has final approval.

R6 wins this thread

[quote]She looks exactly like she wanted to in that photo. She has final approval.

I doubt that for two reasons:

1. She looks really awful; and

2. SJP is smart enough to know that that picture is totally wrong for marketing a comedy.

She looks like crap. If that's the fountain of youth, count me out.

The Haggard Hag

[quote] She looks exactly like she wanted to in that photo. She has final approval.

Sorry--that may be how Vanity Fair worked in the Pat Kingsley days; but that's not how the NYTimes works.

Gag me with a spoon.

Whoever that preoccupied lesbian on the bed in photo-left and the thirsty old gay man downing a drink on the right are, they're a couple who certainly appear to have horrible taste by selecting a hotel suite to stay in possessing such atrocious décor.

She was attractive with some weight on her back in the day. Guys I know always found her hot for her curvy figure and curly hair. She’s wasted away to nothing. Plus she’s a known smoker. That can’t help.

[quote]Yes, because SJP WANTED to look ugly.

That is the aesthetic she's going for, yes. Same with the photo at R93.

I don't know when Datalounge was overrun by basic bitches who don't understand the concept of going for quirky rather than beautiful, but threads like these have been absolutely PAINFUL for a couple of years now.

Imagine seeing SJP dressed like this and thinking she was trying to look glamorous, trendy and beautiful.

I actually really like the OP pic. She looks interesting and Matthew has found something pretty to look at.

R122 curvy?? 🤣

[quote] SJP looks rested and flower-fresh

I've seen more rested and fresh looking faces in caskets.

Yes she was athletic/curvy in the 80’s and some of the 90’s. Remember L.A. Story? She was considered a sex object then believe it or not. Lol. She started to starve herself when she went all high fashion around SATC.

In OP's photo, SJP looks like Kay Thompson near the end.

Looks like fountain found her.

R127 never seen L.A story, but I do agree with you on the athletic part. Not so much on the curvy.

Sarah "Dark Shadows" Jessica Parker.

I don't know who DL QUEENS hate more Lens Dunham or SJP.

I didn't realize SJP was married to Natalie Merchant.

YIKES! Is she like the male celeb's that go out of their way to look bad?

R132 Lens

It's the Nun from the Conjuring.

She actually has the same shaped face as Lisa Rinna who manages to not look horsy with sideswept bangs and a choppy shag. The heaviness manages to shorten the length of her face.

The color would look good, too.

R136 Yes! I was about to post something similar. Why do her eyes look so tiny, beady and MURKY? Like a demon possessed old nun with cataracts?

R137- She always reminded me of Linda Gray from DALLAS.

I like SJP's hair.

The eye makeup though ... I think she can still do a smoky eye. She just needs to lighten the color from black to gray.

SJP would not be caught dead with Lisa Rinna's hairstyle.

The photo does remind me of Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf.

Except Liz still looks pretty in that pic.

[quote]Is Matthew supposed to be feeding her that bucket of flowers?

Thanks, R6. Exactly the laugh I needed today.

[quote]I don't know when Datalounge was overrun by basic bitches who don't understand the concept of going for quirky rather than beautiful, but threads like these have been absolutely PAINFUL for a couple of years now.

There is a big difference between looking quirky and looking old/ugly.

SJP would go for the former, but not the latter.

When she did the magazine cover for SATC, the message was she didn't REALLY look like that.

The pic in the NYT does not send that message.

R6 made me laugh out loud

What does these old queens know?

[quote] Except Liz still looks pretty in that pic.

For Liz, that's ugly (photo at R140 ). Liz was only 34 when Virginia Woolf came out. Here's another photo from Virginia Woolf. Burton's holding flowers, just like Broderick.

Whoa, Nelly

Now she'll have to play Samantha.

PHOTO CREDIT: Mademoiselle Kimette Cattrallette.

R136 don't do Valak like that.

I hate Bill Murray's mincing queen routine in R145. It's like the sexuality version of blackface.

PLETHUH

(R151) Bill Murray is accurately playing John Cabell (drag queen Bunny Breckinridge) who was a notorious, over the top queen. For realsies.

^ Over the top KA-WEEN!

Full page ad in last Sunday's NYT theatre section is better, if only just.

Sneak peak!

Anyone care to handicap chances for Tony nominations or even wins? Early days yes, but have SJP or MB ever won any sort of major award for their work?

Glam:

I don’t think gaining weight would work for her, honestly — her fave shape is her face shape and that wouldn’t change. It would just be a bigger (and I don’t mean wider) version of what she has. It’s not as if all of her weight would suddenly go to her cheeks and fill them out (now if she has a triangular/heart shape face it actually would work that way, but she doesn’t and it wouldn’t).

R85 I saw that movie two years ago, but it had a different title then. Yeah, it was as bad as it looks (maybe worse).

She was never “curvy.” She was a dancer who was always tiny and skinny (but very, very toned back in the day) and then sometime before LA story she got a tit job so she could get sexier roles. But a skinny girl with implants ain’t “curvy.”

I like her, always have. The first thing I ever saw her in as a kid was Flight of the Navigator and thought she'd be a fun friend.

I have the same hair as hers, not be design, I just let it get too long. Today I thought it needs a cut, but no way would I do a Lisa Rinna, hate that hair. I'm thinking shoulder length.

Does she not have any real female friends? I also don't like how much she shills things on instagram.

She was never beautiful, but she was cute and charming and SATC didn't hurt (until movie #2). I'd get tickets to her play but only if it was this weekend.

Someone spill the real tea about her being a backstabber. I feel like she's not the best girl friend, like in SATC, but she's not horrible, is she?

[Quote] I feel like she's not the best girl friend, like in SATC

Carrie wasn't a great friend either.

It's almost as if everyone overreacts on this site.

Almost.

I like her. A lot of people like her. She's likable. Used to be cute and sexy. Now she's not. Like most people.

Oh honey.. With a face like that her only hope is reincarnation

I wonder if one of the reasons why she sticks with that horrific eyeshadow/liner tragedy is because she has rheumy eyes, and she thinks this will help the redness recede and the whites pop more. It doesn't. When you can tell someone has red eyes via a black and white photo...that is a situation. I think she likes her scripted substances. I know, shocking unheard of observation, sorry. Her general vibe seems very Adderall on legs with a Xanax shawl.

[post redacted because linking to dailymail.co.uk clearly indicates that the poster is either a troll or an idiot (probably both, honestly.) Our advice is that you just ignore this poster but whatever you do, don't click on any link to this putrid rag.]

R155 He is more Photoshopped than she is in that pic. They removed 20 years and 50 pounds!

Why is he getting top billing?

She's the bigger star.

It is because he has more Broadway credits?

Or just to keep the peace at home?

I wondered that too R169. She is definitely the bigger star.

R161 True, but she had female friends she was very close with. I don't see that being the case with the real life actress, at least not publicly.

R157 SJP has 4 Golden globes and an Emmy for SATC. I don't see her getting a Tony.

Her lack of beauty and cosmetic work seems to upset the otherwise miserable old gays.

I just hope I look that good when I'm 86!

R173, ready for her closeup.

This is reminding me of when Brad Pitt & Angelina Jolie did “By the Sea” about an unhappy married couple. In this interview, Angelina denied trouble in paradise. AJ said she and Brad could not have made a movie about a couple on the rocks if they were actually on the rocks. Shortly thereafter, divorce.

when they say it is being done as a period piece that can only mean one thing - wigs!

That photo is entertaining.

Her hair situation is tragic. There’s nothing worse than a maiden’s hair on a crone.

Celine Dion is ready to take over the role of Carrie. She would tell the truth about Sex in the City, after 50. Viva La Diva!

Is she really making Hocus Pocus 2?

The promotional materials for this show are very well done.

But I always wonder when a couple do a show together about what type of rivalry goes on between them.

What happens when you spouse is called boring compared to you, do you denounce it while secretly celebrating?

R181, Ask Betty White.

R182 that’s hilarious that’s exactly the first couple I thought of too — I remember Watching once of those biographies where she said they starred in some crappy stock production together. Why do I remember shit like that?

And yeah he was a lot more boring than she, so it’s fitting.

R179 Putain, ouais!

Dear Lord, the PR machine is working overtime on this lot.

R184 holy fuck she looks like Dorothy Michaels — as a corpse.

All of them corpses!

She is NOT the bigger star. He is Broadway royalty!

TV HBO Sex and the City STAR is bigger than Broderick's achievements on Broadway. What I don't get is why people are surprised or outraged that this Plaza Suite is being promoted and celebrated in popular press? They are both well known even if it is a cornball play. More than well known in New York.

With some great costumes and a wonderful chance to show what they can do in character, it's a pretty great idea to be honest. Not as stunting as some stunts. I live in Montreal, but will travel to see this. Not at all interested in Neil Simon, but we hope to be surprised. He didn't write for beautiful people is my understanding. They just have to be funny and sexy and bitter? And in this revival, wear the clothes well. Simon is lucky to be granted ironic revival. I bet Sarica and Matt put some heart in it too.

I can't really see SJP playing the third act Jewish mother of the bride, but then I couldn't imagine Maureen Stapleton doing it in the original production either.

In her case, it would be the Trough of Youth, not the Fountain.

ha ha, the horse jokes are so original. i don't think i've ever heard one before... ancient white fags never get tired of comparing a woman to their favorite dildo.

r192: Hi, Sarah Jessica!

R190, Have you seen Maureen in "Bye, Bye Birdie"?

She did not have a boob job. She’s had a nice rack since way back when. As for her bod, she’s always been tiny. She looked great in Girls Just Want To Have Fun.

[Quote] She looked great in Girls Just Want To Have Fun.

Everyone did. Even Helen Hunt.

It is easier for SJP to lie about her age than the rest of us. She just has to have a couple of teeth removed--and voila! she's an ingenue!

Begone you tired frau at r192. Your dessicated twat has no power here...

I agree with R192 . The horse shit is lame and way tired . Yes shes not very attractive now , but she was 30 years ago. Just like the majority of us were . Hate her all you want but she will always have more money and a much better life than most of us could dream of .

That article in the NYT is so odd.

All that talk about them never seeing each other, never having dinner together, and her saying she sees her husband with other people and thinks, "They would be great together!"

If she was going for "we're so comfortable together," she comes across more like "I wish someone would take him off my hands."

Yeah I thought that was a really weird thing to say too R200.

You agree with the ‘white fags’ comment, r199?...

Upon hearing that Broadway is shutting down her new show, Sarah Jessica Parker kicked a tin pail of water straight across the stall.

See? The horse jokes ARE still funny.

The first time I saw SJP was as a replacement Annie in the original Broadway production. She looked 10 years too old and two feet too tall to be playing a little girl. Also, that part is written for little powerhouse belter. She could just barely carry a tune.

My friends and I used to joke about whether it was she, her mother or her father who had to fuck somebody to get her that job.

R205 she readily admits she didn’t get the part because of her voice. But she was the only one of the Annie’s who could actually act and had that kind of presence and charisma and all of that. She did.

And she was TINY. She was 14 but easily had the height and body of a 10 year old — a small 10 year old at that. I don’t think you would in a million years see a 14 or even 12 year old look like that today.
