Sarah Jessica Parker ends long relationship -- with her mole

Spectators at the MLB All-Star game at Yankee Stadium this week were shocked to see Sarah Jessica Parker without her famous beauty mark (aka that wierd little mole) on her chin.

Now comes confirmation that the "Sex and the City" star has indeed ended her long relationship with the mole. "Yes, she's had it removed, a source close the actress told E! this week. The procedure was reportedly "no big deal."

No big deal? I beg to differ. That little mole was more than just a cluster of melanocytes. It was a symbol for SJP's staunch refusal to bow to modern conventions of celebrity perfection. It made her seem real and unique.

There's no word on what went wrong. Perhaps Sarah and the mole simply grew apart. Maybe the mole was getting bigger and getting more attention. Her dermatologist may have even warned her that the mole was becoming (shudder) precancerous.

Looking back, there were tell-tale signs of trouble in paradise. Parker had even tried to cover up the mole with makeup recently. (See above photo)

What was the last nail in the coffin?

Probably seeing how GINORMOUS the petite skin growth looked on the big screen in those "Sex and the City" close-ups. Insiders say the mole may have even required digital retouching to make it less noticeable during those tender love scenes with Mr. Big (Chris Noth). And with another SATC film in the planning stages, well, something had to go.

Whatever Sarah Jessica's reasons, I think I speak for many when I say, I'm gonna miss that gosh darn little mole.

That mole was a real pain. Just as bad as Owen Wilson's nose. I never hear anything they say because I'm looking at "the flaw" thinking "Get rid of that @#$%!@# thing. One down one to go!! Happy Happy Joy Joy

Im glad she got rid of it. It did not make her original. It was ugly!

I'll take the mole anyday over the disgusting smoking habit.

Now if Obama will just get his obnoxious mole removed, we can all move forward in joy.
