Sarah Jessica Parker named unsexist woman of the year
Charlize Theron, Jessica Alba and Halle Berry are regularly named the world's sexiest women. But who are the unsexiest women alive? A men's magazine decided to find out.
The list, published in the latest edition of Maxim Magazine, named Sex and the City star Sarah Jessica Parker as the No. 1 Unsexiest Woman Alive.
The magazine said Parker was the "least sexy woman in a group of very unsexy women" that ironically starred in a show with the word "sex" in the title.
Troubled soul singer Amy Winehouse was voted No. 2 because of her "hemorrhaging translucent skin, rat's nest mane and lashes that look more like surgically attached bats".
The mag listed Grey's Anatomy Sandra Oh at No. 3 for her "cold bedside manner and boyish figure".
Pop star Madonna took out the No. 4 spot for her "self-righteous bellyaching and rapid postnuptial deterioration".
"Combine a Paris Hilton-like pet accessorising fetish only for dirt-poor foreign babies with a mug that looks Euro-sealed to her skull, and you've got Willem Dafoe with hot flashes," Maxim Magazine said.
Britney Spears came in at No. 5 for "losing the ability to perform".
The mag also said two children, two ex-husbands and a slight weight gain also helped Britney nab the No. 5 spot.
Maxim Magazine's list of the world's unsexiest women:
1. Sarah Jessica Parker
2. Amy Winehouse
3. Sandra Oh
4. Madonna
5. Britney Spears

Sarah Jessica Parker: Heels Ruined My Body
Sarah Jessica Parker insists playing fashionista Carrie Bradshaw in Sex And The City has permanently damaged her physique. The actress, who starred as the iconic journalistic in the hit series, admits constantly wearing high-heeled shoes on set has taken its toll.
She says:
"I used to spend 18 to 20 hours filming in heels. I've totally destroyed my body by running and dancing in heels. My knees are shot."
Parker admits she isn't a fan of character Carrie's signature beverage - the vodka and Cointreau combination of the Cosmopolitan cocktail.
"I've had many Cosmopolitans sent across to me in bars, but I always think, 'God, if I could get this into a bottle, I could clean so much stuff at home.'"

SJP takes a swipe at L.A.M.B
Sounds like Sarah Jessica Parker is hoping to make fashion roadkill out of Gwen Stefani.
Everybody's favorite Sex and the City starlet takes a swipe at Stefani's L.A.M.B. clothing collections while talking about her own debut line, Bitten, in the new issue of Glamour magazine.
Stefani's designs are "much more avant-garde, definitely high fashion," Parker opines. "I don't want to do that for women, because that's not their lives."
Parker says her line won't land you in the poorhouse.
"You're going to be able to buy $200 worth of clothes, leave that store with six bags and be able to pay your utilities and take your kids someplace special for their birthday."
And Parker knows firsthand what it's like trying to raise kids on little money. When she was growing up-she was one of eight kids-her family was on public assistance briefly.
Parker tells writer Bob Morris:
"I got all of my oldest sister's hand-me-downs. And by the time I inherited them, they were really out of fashion."
Parker recalls what she wore on her first date with John F. Kennedy Jr.-a Katharine Hamnett black cocktail dress.
"It was very simple, actually. Except that she let the zipper be the sort of outstanding feature. Very late '80s."
And believe it or not, Parker appears to be getting a bit prudish on us. She's not only against low-rise jeans, but she's sounding an alarm about Young Hollywood.
Though Parker doesn't name names, I think we can figure out who she's referring to.
She says:
"Look how celebrities are acting these days. People are getting attention for doing nothing, for behaving poorly, for abusing themselves in public and being abused, exploiting themselves. I find it vulgar, and I find it awful."

SJP's fashion line, Bitten
Add fashion designer to Sarah Jessica Parker's ever-expanding resume, which already includes actress, mother and perfumer.
The so-chic-you-can't-stand-it actress, who won a Fashion Icon Award from the Council of the Fashion Designers of America in 2004, unveiled her own clothing line, Bitten, yesterday at a private luncheon in New York for fashion editors.
According to an insider at the New York Post, Bitten will include jeans, lingerie, casual wear and accessories (in the $8-$15 price range) and will be sold to fashion chain Steve & Barry's for somewhere between $1 million and $5 million.
She said:
“Women should be able to wear great clothes and not lie in bed at night feeling guilty about how much money they’ve spent. High quality, luxurious clothes do not need to cost as much as we’ve been led to think.”
Can you expect anything less from the woman who launched a thousand (and then some) nameplate necklaces as Carrie Bradshaw?
