Parker 'kicked by cow'

Sex And The City star Sarah Jessica Parker has revealed a cow kicked her during filming of her latest movie Did You Hear About the Morgans?

Speaking to US magazine Parade she said: "The cow kicked me in the middle of the scene and they left it in."

The 44-year-old added: "But I sympathised with the cow. I didn't belong there and she knew it."

Despite that experience, Parker admitted she had enjoyed making a film with co-star Hugh Grant.

"I have wanted to play opposite him in a romantic comedy for basically as long as Americans, especially women, have known and loved Hugh Grant," she said.

"I didn't make any demands in terms of the interpersonal connecting of body parts. I just did what I was told by the director. But, every time I kissed Hugh, I told him I was doing it for America."

The actress, who is best known for playing Carrie Bradshaw in US series Sex And The City, said she hopes there are no plans for a third film.

"I hope not, for all of America's sake. I mean, we're lucky to have been able to manage to run around in heels on the sequel. So we'll see what the future holds, but this one has been really fun."

Jackson UK tribute gig in doubt

A Michael Jackson tribute concert in London next year is in doubt after the company organising the show dissolved.

The Austrian firm, World Awards Media, said the decision to wind-up was made in November.

No further details have been released but liquidator Martin Schneider said the company had lost the financial support of its main sponsor.

It is not yet known if Jackson's brother Jermaine will still put on the gig himself.

The concert was set to take place in June.

It was initially planned to take place outside Vienna's Schoenbrunn Palace in September, but it was moved London's Wembley Stadium after running into problems.

Organisers said too many performers were unable to commit because of scheduling conflicts.

The Austrian media was also accused of stirring up a negative atmosphere.

Former chief promoter Georg Kindel told the Austria Press Agency that he and Superfund founder Christian Baha - the majority owner of the now defunct company - split in October.

Neither Mr Kindel nor Mr Baha could be reached for comment.

Jackson died in June in Los Angeles aged 50.
