Sex & The City

CARRIE’S NEW FASHION IS NOT SO DELIGHTFUL

Sorry to say that And Just Like That is NOT living up to the fashion standards of  predecessor Sex & The City. The original wardrobe designer for City, Patricia Field, chose not to continue working for the new series. We really miss her!  And here’s WHY! (see photo above)  Sarah Jessica Parker’s Carrie looks quite uncomfortable in this peculiar pink and red combo with the plaid overcoat.  The sequin top is matronly and the hat is just plain goofy. And we usually LOVE bright colors! Our beloved Carrie deserves better…

KIM CATTRALL MIGHT GET THE LAST LAUGH

As you know we were the first to tell you that despite all that infighting, Kim Cattrall was set to make a guest appearance on And Just Like That. Kim’s cameo in this season’s finale is expected to bring in HUGE ratings. If these predictions are correct, my source reveals Kim will likely be BACK in season 3! Cynthia Nixon’s character Miranda has moved to LA this season and films her scenes separately from the original cast. Kim could come back for a few more appearances with the explanation that her character lives outside of New York, so she would NOT have to film with the others. My source insists that if the ratings deliver, Kim could earn millions of dollars just to appear in a few episodes next season – and she’d never have to come in contact with her costars…

SAMANTHA IS COMING BACK: WE TOLD YA SO!

Back in 2021 we told you that Kim Cattrall would make an appearance on the Sex and the City reboot, And Just Like That, in a special episode dedicated to beloved star Willie Garson. While it didn’t happen in the first season (since his character’s death was never addressed) it’s happening in the upcoming one! This is especially surprising because Kim has been openly feuding with Sarah Jessica Parker. People magazine just revealed that Kim filmed her guest appearance this past March and while they didn’t reveal the episode’s plot, our source says it’s a memorial tribute to Willie’s fan-favorite character, Stanford.

KIM CATTRALL: LIVING WELL IS THE BEST REVENGE

Looks like Kim Cattrall is living happily ever after since that disagreement with her Sex and the City costars that caused her to be written out of their new series And Just Like That. Kim seemed to resent Sarah Jessica Parker for some reason. Of the two actresses, Sarah has always seemed to be the most reasonable and downright nice. But Kim’s colorful character was much loved on the show. Nowadays she’s living in both New York and London with her boyfriend of 6 years, Russell Thomas. He’s 14 years younger than Kim (good for her!) and they met when he was working at the BBC- not sure what he does for a living now. Above, Kim was a guest at the Glamour Magazine Women of the Year Awards where she received the Screen Icon award.

SEXUAL ASSAULT IN THE CITY: WHAT WILL HAPPEN TO CHRIS NOTH?

If Chris Noth had not reluctantly agreed to appear in the SATC series And Just Like That, this sexual assault scandal probably would NEVER have come to light. Noth ONLY returned to the series because he liked the offer of a brief appearance and a spectacular ending for his character. The Peloton story turned out to be so hot that it brought back bad memories for two women, and they coincidentally brought their stories (over 10 years apart) to the Hollywood Reporter without knowing about each other. Both young vulnerable girls were enchanted by the popular mature actor who played Mr Big. As yet, the women have not filed charges with police or even mentioned lawsuits. They just wanted to tell their stories. Since Noth was married during the 2015 alleged assault, he must be in hot water with his wife. (and more women might come forward!)Just one episode into the series and And Just like That is getting an astonishing amount of publicity!

WILL KIM CATTRALL SHOW HER LOVE FOR WILLIE GARSON?

If you were saddened about the sudden death of Sex & the City actor Willie Garson (he played Carrie’s gay BF Sanford) you can imagine how the rest of the cast and crew feel. We hear that And Just Like That writers plan to honor Willie by writing an episode all about Sanford’s “death” – and here’s the BIG news: they want Kim Cattrall to guest on this special episode dedicated to Willie and his character. And she has NOT said no! How could she? Like her costars, Kim WAS fond of Willie and this would be a great way for her to mend fences with the SATC people and finish off her connection to the show in a nice way. We shall see…

LET’S HEAR IT FOR WOMEN IN THEIR FIFTIES!

Every time we see a photo of the Sex & The City girls filming in New York, we get excited thinking about the revival series And Just Like That. This reboot would NOT have happened 20 years ago, because the main characters are now in their 50’s! Viewers have grown up watching these beloved women and we are eager to see how they are living their lives as mature women. How will Samantha’s absence be written into the script? Two new girlfriends of color will be a welcome and realistic addition to the cast. We hear that Carrie is now divorced from Mr Big – will she take up with Aiden (John Corbett’s character) again? Carrie’s funny gay friends are returning, and we wonder if Charlotte and Miranda are still happy with their guys Harry and Steve. Most important: we hope the brilliant writers from the original series are on board!

CAN CARRIE BRADSHAW SAVE “AND JUST LIKE THAT?”

SOMEBODY (Kim Cattrall) looks really happy that her friend Patricia Fields (with the hat on) is NOT doing wardrobe for the new SATC revival And Just Like That. Fields was responsible for the eye-popping fashion innovations that made the series so delicious to watch. Kim disappointed everyone when she turned down the movie, and Patricia did too – but she had a good excuse. Fields says she’s too busy working as costume designer for Emily in Paris. From what we’ve seen so far, the wardrobe for And Just Like That is NOT thrilling, but we’ll give it more time. (We’re just happy to see the SATC women again) The question is: Can the revival succeed without Kim and Patricia? We hope so…

SARAH JESSICA PARKER: TIME MARCHES ON – IN SJP SHOES

How many A-list celebrities do YOU know who would get down on their knees to fit shoes on a customer in a New York shoe store? Sex & the City star Sarah Jessica Parker continues to amaze us as she waits on customers in her SJP shoe store on W 54th Street. Coincidentally (or not) this SJP store is located in the former location of the Manolo Blahnik shoe store that Carrie Bradshaw frequently visited and gushed about on the show. (Sarah fondly remembers filming there – Carrie wore Blahnik shoes to her wedding) Certainly business must have picked up since Sarah started pitching in to work there…

SARAH JESSICA PARKER: “CAN I TRY THIS IN A SIZE 9?”

A few weeks ago we told you Sarah Jessica Parker made a surprise appearance at her SJP shoe store in Manhattan and she worked as a salesperson. Shoppers loved it and sales went through the roof. Last weekend, the E! channel had one of their Sex & the City three day marathons featuring every episode from the six seasons of the beloved series.(It’s still fabulous!) Coincidentally or not, Sarah is BACK in the busy store waiting on customers with the rest of the staff this week. Sarah was just one of the girls when she and the other salesclerks went out for a taco lunch – she was happily masked and unrecognized.
