MANILA, Philippines -There’s been a lot of buzz about SM Aura Premier opening this May. And the big news is that international screen, stage actress and style icon Sarah Jessica Parker will grace the launching of the mall’s SM Store.
Parker, who played Carrie Bradshaw on the HBO television series Sex and the City (1998-2004), has won four Golden Globe Awards, three Screen Actors Guild Awards, and two Emmy Awards. She served as a producer and reprised her role in the screen adaptation of the hit series, with the theatrical release of Sex and the City and Sex and the City 2.
Her Carrie character, who has been described as someone who lives for fashion — as well as her own incredible personal style — make Parker the perfect guest for the store opening, which Manila’s stylish set is looking forward to.
In the fall of 2013, Parker will return to the stage in the world premiere of The Commons of Pensacola by Amanda Peet opposite Blythe Danner.
Past film credits include I Don’t Know How She Does It, Did You Hear About the Morgans?, Smart People, Failure to Launch, The Family Stone, State and Main, Mars Attacks!, Ed Wood, The First Wives Club, Miami Rhapsody, Honeymoon in Vegas, and Footloose.
Parker also lends her time to charitable causes. She currently serves as a member of the board of directors for the New York City Ballet and is a UNICEF ambassador. In November 2009, the Obama administration elected her to be a member of the President’s Committee on the Arts and the Humanities. In April 2012, she adopted the Martin Luther King Jr. School in Portland Oregon for the Turnaround Arts Initiative.
