Holy moly SJP
I nearly choked on my tea this morning as I caught the little box dedicated to Sarah J P’s latest facial modification in this morning’s paper. Yes folks, we no longer need to run and hide from ‘the mole’. Her unique look, often described using power words like ‘horse’, has celebrated unconventionally pretty things like curly hair and pale skin. I personally have often been tickled by her sense of style and the outfits she wears - as have many SATC fans. But the mole was a bit of a focal point and stole too much of the limelight.
So yes the second most popular mole in celeb history (after Cindy Crawford, who in her day made moles seem like the thing to have) is no more. Others are lining her up behind Enrique Iglesias who de-moled to up his sex appeal. And while some celebrate the step to rid themselves of these very human eye-sores (how on earth they made it to fame with them in tact is a mole ‘nother story, ha ha) I have news for those snivelling into the tissue of betrayal. This is not the first move gutsy SJP has made to fit better into the celeb scene as seen in the picture below:
But through all this I can’t help but wonder if it sends the wrong message to people who have their own little moles? Does it change how they are perceived by fans and followers who ‘loved them for who they were’? And more to the point if you can step out wearing the gaudiest of outfits, how dare you shun your mole?
Perhaps it’s an affirmation that celebrities are actually, cue the violin, people too and, like us, conform to the pressures to look as prototype as possible to fit the mould. I’m tempted to go off on a soliloquy here about loving what we were given, but then again as I do not have a facial mole that wouldn’t really be fair. Congratulations SJP, may you be just as charismatic without your little friend.
