Sarah Jessica Parker Is a Bit of a Control Freak

Sarah Jessica Parker Is a Bit of a Control Freak

You know what they say: If you want something done right, give your staff very specific instructions about how you want it done. That's how Sex and the City star Sarah Jessica Parker reportedly runs her household. Sources say that Parker has very specific wishes about how she wants tiny things done in her house, and she gives her staff detailed instructions on how to do things like refilling the body wash container in the shower.

We all know how it is, right? There's nothing worse than being in the shower and discovering that your maid hasn't checked the body wash level properly.

Sarah Jessica Parker runs a very particular household.

As part of her “Magic Mich” comedy show on Wednesday, Michelle Collins read aloud from emails she said Parker sent to a friend of hers who works for the “Divorce” star and her husband, Matthew Broderick.

In the emails that Collins, 36, claimed were written by Parker herself, the actress, 52, instructs staffers to refill a tiny 1.75-ounce container of Vaseline with a small spoon or knife for her children’s use. She stresses that the refill jar not be too big (so as to not clutter the house), and that the cutlery used to handle the Vaseline must be hand-washed using a paper towel followed by a cycle in the dishwasher.

She also requests that a bottle of face wash and Neutrogena body wash be continually replenished for her 14-year-old son, James Wilkie, in his personal shower.

But for those looking for a shortcut, no such luck. Parker insists the staff not buy multiples of anything and instead prefers them to check the levels of each product daily, replacing only once the product has completely run out.

Collins also claimed that when the New York City-based family was plagued with pinkeye, Parker sent the team instructions on how eyedrops should be administered, including how hard the children should blink.
