Actress Sarah Jessica Parker is nothing like her Sex And The City character Carrie Bradshaw - she only owns two outfits. The 42-year-old says she has an empty closet because she hates shopping for clothes - but admits to sharing her fashionista character's love of shoes.

She says, "Friends came by recently and after looking in my closet said, 'Wow! You don't have a lot of clothes' I'm not a big shopper, but I do splurge on shoes. I have about two main outfits which I wear to death and that's it.

"I feel I have to measure up to Carrie and that's hard."

That's pretty funny. I guess it just goes to show that the actor/actoress behind their characters don't necessarily have the same personas as their characters.

The actors/actresses behind the characters are often very different from the roles they play. An excellent example is Carroll O'Connor, who was warm, passionate, genuinely interested in bettering society, erudite, and at one time taught English. A pretty far departure from Archie Bunker, the character he is probably best known for portraying.

thats totally obvious, stylists choose her clothes not her, same goes for all of the s.a.t.c girls. they do always look totally amazing though.
