Sarah Jessica Parker is the ultimate multi-tasker: actress, producer, wife, mother...and manicurist to Hugh Grant!

The star told Matt Lauer on the Today show Thursday that she was "shocked" by Grant's icky fingernails while they made their new comedy Did You Hear About the Morgans? "He's one of the most dashing men in the world!" Parker, 44, told Lauer of Grant, who apparently picks his teeth with unkempt, "ragged shovels." "I think the globe deserved a proper, presentable hand."

So the fastidious Parker took matters into her own hands: "I am exquisitely skilled with a nail clipper," she explained.

Indeed, on Wednesday Grant gushed to Lauer about his "Tuesday manicures" with Parker during their four months shooting the romantic comedy. There were limits to Parker's TLC, though: "She balked at my feet," Grant, 49, said.

"Every man is responsible for his own feet," Parker quipped of her no-pedicures rule.

Did You Hear About the Morgans? -- the pair's second collaboration after 1996's Extreme Measures -- hits theaters Friday.

    It looks like SJP has grooming issues of her own....it is way past time to have her roots done! Her hair looks horrible!!!

    She has the nerve to say something about his nails when she walks around with that horse face.

    Hahaha, that's so nice of SJP, and I'd probably draw the line at feet as well! And, I meant to say, Tiger Woods should know how it feels to be alone, etc.

    Too funny. I'd have thought he would have hair and makeup do that, or at least his agent/ manager notice it w/ everything in HiDef these days.
