‘Sex and the City’ star Sarah Jessica Parker caused a few problems when she did an unauthorized photo shoot at 66 Perry St in the West Village on the famous Carrie Bradshaw stoop.
According to Page 6, “The owners are up in arms as they deal with relentless tourists, and SJP has ignored their requests for an explanation on how she could endorse the shoot, even though ‘no trespassing’ signs are posted. SJP used their house during the years of filming, and now won’t acknowledge that she and her company used the steps and facade, this time without permission, to promote her shoe line.”
A sign has been placed near the stoop, which Parker ignored, asking people not to step on the stairs in order to keep the fan craze at bay. The neighborhood is up in arms about the issue due to crowded streets and constant attention. Though Carrie Bradshaw may not actually live there, real people do and they want their privacy respected.
According to Gerald Banu, president of the Perry Street Association, “The only thing I could suggest to SJP is that when they write the next script, please have Carrie move to a new address.”
