Life imitates art for SATC's Kim - Nov 12 2007
Kim Cattrall has apparently revealed that she shares one similarity with her Sex And The City alter ego Samantha Jones - they're both dating younger men.

The 51-year-old actress is currently seeing Canadian chef Alan Wyse, who is 23 years her junior, reports the Daily Telegraph.

She is quoted as saying: "When Alan and I first got together three years ago I was a little embarrassed about how close to the storyline it seemed.

"I was dating men closer to my own age and I thought that Alan would just be a nice little interlude in my life. But he kept calling and pursuing me."

And Kim, whose SATC character Samantha falls for 20-something Smith, revealed that she has no complaints about being with a younger man.

"I've discovered that it's really interesting to be with a man of another generation because he has different ways of looking at the world.

"Plus, irrespective of his age, Alan has a lot of wisdom that comes from just being him," she added.

Kim is set to star with Daniel Radcliffe in World War I drama My Boy Jack on Sunday,



Kim: It’s about the money - Nov 6 2007
Kim Cattrall has apparently revealed that the only reason she is doing the Sex And The City film is for the cash.

The actress, who plays man-eater Samantha Jones in the successful TV series and forthcoming flick, told Reveal magazine: "It will be nice to step into Samantha’s shoes again, but I’m only doing it for the money.

"Samantha is very dear to me and I have such a wonderful time playing her, but I can say for experience than wanting financial security. We did it, we did it well. But it was always about the money."

She continued: "When I made a stand about not being in the movie because I thought the money was terrible, there was a backlash of very negative things from some of my co-stars. The role is very much a double-edged sword."

The blonde, 51, also revealed she is happy to see the character age.

"I really wanted Samantha to turn 50 in the film and she does, so I’m grateful for that. I’m glad she isn’t hiding her age. After 50, you can still be a woman - you can go shopping, have friends and do lunch. At 50 - you can love and be loved."

Kim and Sarah are friends again - July 20 2007
All seems to be looking rosy again between Sex And The City co-stars Kim Cattrall and Sarah Jessica Parker.

The actresses, who play Samantha and Carrie respectively in the hit series, found their friendship deteriorated over the years, as the show became more successful.

They may have played best friends on-screen, but off-screen it was a different story with money and fame at the core of the problems.

As the lead character, Sarah Jessica was reportedly paid more than the others, causing tension between the women, and Kim’s popularity among the viewers and her exciting plotlines was said to have ruffled her co-star’s feathers.

"Now the women are pals again," a studio insider told In Touch magazine.

"Kim broke the ice by sending Sarah Jessica flowers to congratulate her on her clothing line, Bitten, and Sarah Jessica responded by sending Kim a few items from the collection."

It’s a good thing too, as production is expected to start soon on the much-anticipated film version of the show.
