Say goodbye to Demi Moore and hello to SJP!

Despite Moore being treated for "exhaustion" on Monday, the film's lead actress, Amanda Seyfried, 26, has been hard at work shooting scenes in L.A. all week. The movie, which also stars James Franco and Peter Sarsgaard, tells the story of '70s porn star Linda Lovelace.
AUDIO: Hear Demi Moore's chilling 911 call
Moore pulled out of the project earlier this week after she was hospitalized for "exhaustion." However, in a 911 call released Friday, a friend of Moore's said the actress "smoked something" and seemed "to be having convulsions of some sort" prior to being admitted to the emergency room.

God SJP looks so much like a horse!
Awesome! I love Sarah Jessica Parker! I watch Sex and the City all the time and just love her acting! Can't wait to see it
Still using the exhaustion thingy even after all the drug reports and 911 tapes, well at least Sarah is a better actress and takes her work seriously. Move on over Demi....much better actresses and everyone at this time can use the extra cash.
That's too funny lol
