Speaking on The Howard Stern Show this week, And Just Like That… star Sarah Jessica Parker revealed the perils of ageing in Hollywood.
Parker, who resumed her role as Carrie Bradshaw in the Sex And The City sequel And Just Like That…, shared her story about how she landed the part to star alongside Steve Martin in the satirical romantic comedy film L.A. Story, before Stern pressed her on whether she sees 'a good-looking human being' when she looks in the mirror.
'I’m presentable,' the actress replied honestly, before revealing, 'I don’t really like looking at myself. I think I'm fine.'
Stern then asked whether she considers doing ‘a facelift, botox, and all this other s**t,’ to which Parker responded, ‘I think about all of it. I ask people all the time, is it too late?'
The actor admitted that while she feels she ‘missed out on the facelift, the old-fashioned good one you have when you’re 44’, she does see a dermatologist for treatments, referencing skin peels specifically.
The Sex and the City alum added that she also doesn't begrudge people for getting things like Botox and other cosmetic procedures due to the stigmas surrounding beauty and ageing in Hollywood.
'I do understand why people make the choice because there is so much emphasis put on primarily women about looks,' she said.
The second season of And Just Like That… debuted earlier this month to lower viewing figures than its predecessor. Season one of AJLT averaged 1.1 million households during the live-plus-three-day viewing period, according to data provided by Samba TV, which measures TV engagement. Season two’s debut episode was watched by 463,000 households during the same period, a decrease of 59%.
