Sex and the splitsy for SJP
Updated 12:00pm on 25 Mar 2009Sarah Jessica Parker knows more than most that flashing your knickers in public is the ultimate fashion faux pas.
Thigh high: Sarah Jessica Parker's stunt double does the splits between two balconies
So it came as a surprise to onlookers to see the stylish actress clambering on a high-rise balcony with her underwear on display. Parker, 44, who played Carrie Bradshaw in Sex And The City, was shooting a scene for her latest movie, Did You Hear About The Morgans? in New York. In it, her character, Meryl, who has a phobia of heights, has to climb into the next apartment because she is in danger.
Balcony scene: the real SJP before the stunt
On closer inspection, however, it turned out not to be Parker whose pants were on show on the 17th floor, but her stunt double, standing in after closeups of the star's face had been filmed.
Parker's co-star, Hugh Grant, was also spotted filming a scene for the romantic comedy, about an estranged couple being put into a witness protection programme. It is a reunion for SJP and Grant, 48 - they starred in 1996 thriller Extreme Measures alongside Hollywood veteran Gene Hackman.
