What's happened to Sarah Jessica Parker? Star is unrecognisable on startling magazine cover after too much airbrushing

Thanks to her Sex and the City days, people the world over recognise Sarah Jessica Parker.
But that wasn’t quite the case for the actress on her latest magazine cover for Harper’s Bazaar China.
The star appears to have been airbrushed within an inch of her life, leaving her looking like an entirely different person.

The resulting image is rather startling as Sarah Jessica’s piercing blue eyes stare intensely into the camera.
With her dark blonde tresses blown into big and bouncy curls, the 47-year-old poses in a colourful pretty printed dress which features a black lace top and matching bra underneath.
Sarah Jessica accessorises with ornate drop earrings and a delicate ring, but all eyes are on the star’s fierce-looking face.

Bundled up: The actress was wrapped up warm as she hailed a cab while her twin daughters stood close by in New York on Wednesday

Fortunately she looked a lot more normal when she was spotted in New York on Wednesday.
Sarah Jessica was seen stepping into the road to hail a cab while a minder held hands with her twin daughters Marion and Tabitha.
The actress was dressed in a striped brown furry coat along with grey skinny jeans tucked into slouchy beige leather boots, as well as a grey knitted hat and large sunglasses.

Meanwhile her three-year-old daughters were dressed in warm hooded plaid parkas, patterned skirts and pink leggings tucked into brown sheepskin boots.
As always the girls looked adorable in their matching outfits, and each sweetly stood on the pavement clutching dolls while they waited for their taxi.
Sarah Jessica seemed cheerful despite the fact that she has just been voted the second unsexiest actress by MenKind, following after Kristen Stewart.
