sarah jessica parker


sarah jessica parker was on oprah, but it was the tonight show set. i somehow got stuck watching the taping and because i hate them both, i thought oh great, here's another two hours of my life i'll never get back. as i stood in the wings i felt surprised that sarah jessica parker was actually funny- self-effacing and seemed authentic. uncharacteristically for oprah, she mostly just kept her holier-than-thou dictates to herself and laughed at sarah and her stories so i almost forgot she was there. sarah was talking about what a hausfrau she was in real life and how no one ever recognized her when ever she went out to the grocery store etc. because she dressed like a bag lady. she would then pop back stage and change into her shopping outfits to illustrate the point. each one was funnier than the last and she kept saying, 'go ahead and laugh- i really wear this!' it was hilarious. as the segment was wrapping up oprah said, 'i heard you brought the twins with you, can they come out and say hi?' sarah agreed and soon the twins were carried to the stage by crew members. something seemed a little off and soon it became apparent that each of the twins had a  bone growth on one knee that looked like a jagged star anise and prevented the joint from moving. soon the audience grew quiet, but oprah and sarah wanted to leave it on a high note, so they started calling for more bag lady outfits be brought out for the twins. both oprah and sarah were wrestling clothing over the frozen limbs and laughing as though they could not see the horror of the situation. the twins were quiet and compliant. they stared at the audience as though it was nothing more than a black void.
