In another sign the world is collapsing as we speak, Sarah Jessica Parker is claiming that the apartments surrounding her apartment are now not filled with regular tenants, but instead are filled with paps who basically have her surrounded 24 hours a day. Now, I know that my math skills do not extend much beyond what I can do with my fingers and toes but to me this seems, if true, a colossal waste of money.

How much money can a juicy photo of Sarah Jessica Parker generate? I mean do they really think she is going to bring some guy back to her place and have sex with him on the front stoop just so the paps can get a good photo? The only photos anyone ever gets of her are her walking down the street, going into a store, out of a store. Who the f**k cares? They can do all of that from outside in the street. I just don’t think that Sarah or Matthew are going to do anything stupid enough to warrant the prohibitive cost of renting a NY apartment. Does seeing a photo of Sarah walking with her kid on page 63 of a magazine make you more likely to buy the damn magazine? So, where is the market?

The only thing I can guess is that perhaps the paps are in the apartments for other reasons or have other tools other than cameras to catch some type of illicit remark or conversation. Of course that would be illegal, but can always be attributed to an unnamed source or insider. I guess if you have a parabolic mike or a bug that would certainly be an insider and would probably actually lead to revelations that would get a cover story and sell magazines.

“Photographers moved into apartments next door to us and we really found ourselves kind of living like a spy movie… I feel like they think they have to be there. Like they punch in or something.”

According to NY Magazine, Sarah and Matthew have had enough of the intrusion and so are about to purchase an $18M home that would keep all their secrets a secret.
