Sarah Jessica Parker And The Curious Case Of The Missing Mole
Posted by Molly Friedman at 4:05 AM on July 17, 2008
The Daily Mail, that notorious rag that deconstructs celebrity faces and performs detailed analyses of every miniscule wrinkle, inflated pout, and sagging rump, has finally turned its eagle eyes towards Sarah Jessica Parker. And unlike fellow plastic surgery obsessed sites, the tab has gone beyond simply accusing the SATC behemoth of getting nips and tucks, choosing instead to focus on the famously anti-surgical enhancement star's cute, albeit sizable, mole above her chin. You see, the British body part attack squad spotted a recent photo of SJP taken at last night's MLB All-Star Game and jumped to the thrilling conclusion that the actress has had her trademark imperfection — the one that inspired Rex Reed to spend an entire paragraph of his mean-spirited SATC review begging her to laser off — removed once and for all. But paired with Parker's decade-long (sometimes downright bitchy) assault on peers who dare halt the aging process with needles and knives, the photo in question does little to convince us Sarah Jessica is guilty of anything more than having enough money to hire a proper makeup artist:

In past interviews, Parker has responded to the many accusations in the press that she's undergone all sorts of rhinoplastic magic, the actress has said:
"I've had no Botox, no collagen, nothing. I have lines, but if some of my peers weren't having things done, I wouldn't think about it."
"It's mad. It seems no one can move their foreheads any more and their faces are all fluffy and bouncy."
"I don't want to do things that I think are unnecessary and I wish that more of us felt that kind of courage. I think it'd be better for everyone...It's just genetics and I don't deserve it. I'm one of the lucky ones I guess."
As any fellow SATC devotee knows, Carrie Jessica Bradshaw Parker spent every episode of the series proudly refusing to hide that beauty mark, endearing her to women across the globe and making the iconic lovelorn heroine that much more relatable. And taking into consideration yesterday's display of what a little moonlight and makeup can do to a girl like Gwyneth Paltrow, we're tempted to take Parker, self-righteous as she may be, for her high and mighty word.

I don't think she did anything...she still looks equine.

It looks to me like she just covered it with makeup. But if she did have it cut off, I wouldn't blame her. It is one ugly mole. It ads to her long chinned witchy look.

Actually, though, I think you're right that she didn't do anything - it just looks like it's covered up with makeup.

@CourageousCoward: First Corey Haim, now Matthew Broderick? Will you stop at nothing to crush the egos of former teen stars from the 80s?

I'm hardly one to defend people getting plastic surgery, but this isn't really on the same level. People get moles removed all the time for valid medical reasons (they can turn cancerous).

If she wanted to "slice off that annoying little mole" she would have dumped MB years ago!

Second photo taken from a more flattering angle, better light, better foundation. Instead of picking on her damn mole, can't we beg the woman to eat something? Her sinews have sinews at this point.
