Sex & The City

HERE’S SOMETHING YOU DON’T SEE VERY OFTEN

A couple and their dog took a moment to unmask and casually relax on the ground in front of a massage parlor in West Hollywood – and it happens to be a well-known actor, James Remar! He played Samantha’s high octane boyfriend on Sex & the City, but Remar has an edge, and frequently plays sociopaths and sexually aggressive characters. We fondly remember him in the 1979 film The Warriors. James and his wife Atsuko have been married for 36 years and have two very good looking children, Lisa, a singer, and Jason, an actor. Lisa says she has a “sweet dad” and he’s nothing like the characters he plays…

WHAT’S NOT TO LIKE ABOUT SARAH JESSICA PARKER?

Like Friends star Jennifer Aniston, Sarah Jessica Parker is still enjoying incredible popularity among females, thanks to Sex & the City. She’s in Sydney where she has scheduled a series of seminars for women where she shares her experiences in the business world. Among her successful endeavors is her SJP shoe collection – she is seen here arriving at the David Jones store where she autographed her shoe collection for fans until the store closed.

DENZEL’S SON JOHN DAVID WASHINGTON IS NUTS ABOUT SEX & THE CITY!

Here’s an unexpected skill. You may or may not be aware that Denzel Washington’s son John David Washington is the breakout star on Ballers – and he’s a former NFL player. Considering his background, we were flabbergasted to learn (via Hollywood Reporter) that John is a HUGE fan of Sex & the City. No kidding. In fact, he considers himself an expert on SATC trivia and can quote verbatim from all 94 episodes! He rewatches the series every year and his favorite characters are Charlotte and Samantha. How delicious is THAT!

MIRANDA HOBBES FOR GOVERNOR!

Cynthia Nixon IS a candidate of the people- she can be seen riding the subway in Manhattan almost every day. When she announced herself as a candidate for Governor of New York, she nearly arrived late thanks to “Governor Cuomo’s MTA.” What a great storyline this campaign could have been for the girls in Sex & the City 3! Cynthia’s character Miranda was the brainy workaholic with a law degree, so it makes sense. The drama of Miranda running for office would almost make up for the absence of Samantha (who would have been in charge of her publicity, of course!)

THE SARAH JESSICA PARKER/KIM CATTRALL FEUD IS ALL ABOUT MONEY

Okay, let’s clarify this whole Sarah Jessica ParkerKim Cattrall feud- it’s about MONEY. Jason Lewis played Samantha’s boyfriend on the series and he admitted HE’s siding with SJP. He raves about how he adored and appreciated Sarah’s kindness on the show but held back at saying ANYTHING nice about Kim Cattrall. WE have never met anyone who didn’t love Sarah and our personal experience with her has always been delightful. Here’s what destroyed Sarah and Kim’s friendship: Sarah was the star of the series and producer and undoubtedly paid more, but Kim’s character really caught on – especially with gay men who identified with her playful promiscuity and sexual openness. Kim KNEW her character was popular – she had tons of fans – and expected more money. Apparently she was never paid what she thought she was worth and resentment grew. When Kim turned down the third Sex & the City movie despite the good script, she knew she was denying her costars and crew money and jobs they might need. Not nice. We wish they’d recast Samantha.

WILL THE REAL KIM CATTRALL PLEASE STAND UP

Kim Cattrall’s bold character Samantha on Sex & the City was probably the most popular of the four leading women – especially among gays. Maybe that’s why she was resentful toward Sarah Jessica Parker because her Carrie was officially the STAR of the popular show. Personally, we would love to have followed these women into their 50’s and 60’s in a third movie. Everyone loved the script- so why did Kim lead everyone on and then back out at the last minute? Why wouldn’t she go through with the movie to please her costars and pocket the money? How many offers does she GET? Kim called HER COSTARS “toxic.” In reality, Kim was always the toxic one – Sarah happens to be a genuinely decent and kind person. Kim’s decision means a lot of people won’t be working and fans will be disappointed. Actually, we’d be happy to see the movie made without Kim.

Cynthia Nixon’s post- “Sex & the City” fashion is nothing to rave about. The actress, 49, is wearing a no-frills grey and black outfit to run errands in New York. Her character Miranda the lawyer on the series had a LOT more style and clout. Meanwhile, Cynthia’s wife of three years, Christine Marinoni, took her four year old lookalike son Max to school.

KIM CATTRALL STILL ENJOYS THE COMPANY OF YOUNGER MEN

Sex and the City’s“ Kim Cattrall, 56, has moved on to a far more mature – and tragic – role onstage in London. She’s playing the lead in Tennessee Williams’ “Sweet Bird of Youth “ about an aging, drug addled actress and her young gigolo. The younger man is played by Seth Numrich, 26. Her SATC character Samantha Jones enjoyed romances with younger men and didn’t have to pay them! Kim has always loved Broadway and looks to be aiming for a career onstage.

ANNASOPHIA ROBB IS PLAYING CARRIE BRADSHAW IN HIGH SCHOOL

#thecarriediaries #janetcharlton

Nothing can replace “Sex & The City” but we’re willing to give “The Carrie Diaries” a chance. Candace Bushnell wrote both Sex” and “Diaries” so we’re hoping for the best. “Diaries” is the prequal to “Sex” and starts with Carrie as a senior in high school in the 1980’s and follows her to Brown University and on to New York City as a struggling writer. This series however, is on the CW, and HBO and producer Darren Star are not involved. So it’s a tossup. But we WILL give it a look when it debuts in January. (Above, AnnaSophia Robb as Carrie, is filming on location in Douglastown, New York. She’s got the HAIR)
