Sarah Jessica Parker gasps and screams as she is overwhelmed by eclipse in bizarre Instagram video
Many people were excited to see the solar eclipse on Monday night, but apparently none more so than Sarah Jessica Parker.
The Sex and The City actress swooned, gasped and throatily screamed as she described the awe-inspiring moment.
She filmed herself enjoying the eclipse, complete with special eye-protection goggles, and posted it on Instagram.
Broadcasting from a boat in South Carolina, the actress described the experience as “maybe one of the most thrilling moments of my life.”

“We did it. We made it. Oh my god. We saw it,” she said in awed, hushed tones.
“Matthew, yes exactly. It’s so humbling. It’s so...extraordinary.”
