Jimmy Fallon made his debut on “The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon” last night, exciting, right? Well, a dozen or so A-list celebrities came out to help Jimmy celebrate the exciting debut and Sarah Jessica just so happened to be one of them. You can check it out below:
With her highly anticipated shoeline set to hit Nordstorm stores this spring, Sarah Jessica Parker scored a feature in the March 2014 issue Marie Claire.
During the interview, the “Sex and the City” star dished about herself, including her hidden talents and superstitions.
Highlights from Miss Parker’s Q&A session are as follows. For more, be sure to visit Marie Claire!
On her acting talents no one knows about
“I can do a good working-class English accent.”On one thing that surprises people about her:
“I can tie a beautiful bow and a proper necktie, and I’m an excellent ironer.”On her first dollar:
“When I was 8, I was paid $500 to play [the lead in] The Little Match Girl for a week, but I was more excited about the $5 lunch stipend.”On the superstition she believes in:
“On the first of every month, I say, ‘Rabbit, rabbit.'”
For six seasons, Sarah Jessica Parker played Carrie Bradshaw, a columnist and even a contributor for Vogue magazine on HBO’s Sex and the City. Now in real life, the star is putting on her own writer’s hat.
The actress will be a guest editor for Nordstrom blog The Thread. Her inaugural article will go live at midnight PT on Feb. 14. Then just two weeks later, Parker will have another debut: Her first shoe line —the SJP collection—will launch exclusively in Nordstrom stores.
And as if that wasn’t amazing enough, there’s a bonus: In addition to popping up for in-store meet and greets, SJP will also be interacting with shoppers on her blog. Meaning, here’s your big chance to have the style icon answer your burning questions (like say, what’s her favorite shoe ever?).
And speaking of burning questions, we had a few for the star, starting with: How did this guest editor position come about?
“Funny enough, from a text message I sent to The Thread’s Qianna Smith. We were given each other’s information for a phone interview on the announcement of the collection and just got to talking…I was just so impressed with The Thread and so excited to get to contribute in any way,” she shared with E! News exclusive. “I think it’s a really wonderful opportunity for me to connect with Nordstrom customers and fellow fashion enthusiasts in a personalized way. I’m thrilled!”
She went on to add that getting feedback from her shoppers is essential to being a designer:
“For someone in business, it’s so important to have that kind of intimate connection, where someone can really share their thoughts. We know they will share with me what they liked about the shoe, what was confusing. How it felt to wear a purple shoe to the office, to be the first person. How hard it was to integrate these ideas into their lifestyle. Or what they feel they’re missing from their wardrobe. What I can do better the next time. What they’d like me to continue, and what’s missing. That kind of conversation is invaluable, and The Thread has made that connection already with the Nordstrom customer, so it’s a great gateway for me to have.”
And what were her most surprising design moments?
“Oh my gosh, the whole issue of grosgrain: The quality of grosgrain, the expense of grosgrain, the right color of grosgrain, and which grosgrain ravels and which one doesn’t,” she says. “I would never have expected there would be so many options and opinions on it. But grosgrain is one of my favorite signature details on the shoes.”
To ask SJP your own questions, visit her blog tomorrow night or meet her in person at one of the below Nordstrom locations.
Feb. 28-March 2: Pop-Up Shop, 372 West Broadway, New York City
March 5: Nordstrom Flagship, Seattle (She’s also doing a live Twitter chat that will be streamed on The Thread)

Sarah Jessica Parker paid tribute to Pete Seeger, who died Monday at age 94, while Rob Lowe reminisced about his time on The West Wing before President Obama’s State of the Union: See Us Weekly’s roundup of the top 10 celebrity tweets from Jan. 28!
1. Sarah Jessica Parker: “Pete Seeger, some of my happiest memories from childhood include you. Your distinct sound making its way through our home. Day and night…Your musical presence remains for my children. So grateful you shared your music, your principles and yourself for so many decades…We are all better for it. Thank you. Godspeed Pete Seeger.”
PRETTY OLD, Walter Matteson’s crowd-pleasing senior citizen pageant documentary executive produced by Sarah Jessica Parker, has been acquired by GoDigital for domestic release. Produced by Group Effort Films, Boss Films Productions and Parker’s own Pretty Matches Productions, PRETTY OLD will see a simultaneous New York theatrical and nationwide VOD release via GoDigital this March. A theatrical on-demand release courtesy of Gathr Films is also slated for spring.
PRETTY OLD showcases the enthusiastic ’65 and older’ contestants of Massachusetts’ annual Ms. Senior Sweetheart Pageant as they prepare for, travel to and compete in the coveted event. Hilarious and heartbreaking in turns, the film and prized subjects inspire newfound passions and challenge societal stereotypes to ultimately reveal what it truly means to age beautifully.
Josh Alexander, Daniel Chalfen and Walter Matteson produced the film, which last year received the Jury Award for ‘Best Documentary’ at the Santa Barbara International Film Festival. Alison Benson and Joe Berlinger also executive produced alongside Sarah Jessica Parker.
“These incredibly dynamic women embrace growing older with a youthful spirit, and while also full of insightful wisdom, they give us a heartfelt look at what it truly means to age beautifully,” explained Parker.
“With PRETTY OLD, we are trying to show people that being and growing ‘old’ can be absolutely beautiful,” said Matteson. “We’re thrilled that GoDigital is helping us introduce the film and its message to the broad audience it deserves.”
