Sarah Jessica Parker to raise awareness about sex trafficking

Sarah Jessica Parker to raise awareness about sex trafficking
New York: Sex and the City star Sarah Jessica Parker has joined hands with up and coming actress Gabourey Sidibe to raise awareness about sex trafficking.

The Hollywood A-listers lent their voices to public service announcements drawing attention to a new hotline for trafficking victims, reported New York Post online.

"At least 100,000 American children are trafficked into prostitution in the United States each year," Parker said in a radio spot.

"It's important that we fight this plague that affects the lives of so many of our children," added the 45-year-old mother-of-three.

"These kids can be runaways or victims of abusive parents ...they're desperate, they're vulnerable and they're lost," Sidibe, who received an Oscar nomination for her role as a sexually abused teen in 'Precious' said in a radio spot.

"It makes me sick to think of those animals taking 12, 13, and 14-year-old girls and renting them out to a John," said Sidibe.
