Sarah Jessica Parker's priceless modesty

Sarah Jessica Parker said no amount of money would make her agree to a nude scene. The 'Sex and the City' actress has strictly ruled out stripping off in front of the camera because she doesn't like the way she looks and wouldn't be prepared to accept a body double.

She said: "I'm a modest person. I'm not really proud of how I look. And you couldn't pay me enough to have someone pretend they were me doing a nude scene. No body doubles - that's part of my contract." The star - who has achieved fashion idol status because of her role as Carrie Bradshaw in the hit US TV show and film - also insists she doesn't make a huge effort to keep in shape.

She added to Britain's Star magazine: "I've never had to - it's just my metabolism. I am what I am because of DNA, nothing more. "But I love to eat. I love to cook and I love to go out to good restaurants. And Hershey bars are my guilty pleasure!"
