Kim Cattrall Spotted on Virgin Atlantic

July 2, 2008 at 11:30 AM | 0 Comments

Anthony Bourdain may fly Continental, but Kim Cattrall doesn't mess with American carriers, a tipster tells us. The "Sex and the City" star was spotted in Virgin Atlantic's Upper Class lounge on the way to New York after enjoying Nelson Mandela's birthday party in London.

Says a passenger:

She looked gorgeous--even in the black Virgin sleep suit. Sorry I don't have any pix.

Funny: We never thought of Samantha as the classy one.

Radar Takes a Ride on the SATC Tour Bus

June 6, 2008 at 12:05 PM | 2 Comments

"Sex and the City"-themed bus tours were rolling around New York long before the movie came out. So Radar Magazine sent two intrepid reporters to ride along with On Location Tours and see the streets the way Carrie and her friends would. And as you can imagine, the tour took them vibrator shopping, bar hopping and stoop-spotting.

Movie Set Travel: Sex and the City

May 30, 2008 at 7:11 AM | 0 Comments

Gather your gals (and Anthony Marentino-types!) and get fabulous because the big day is finally here. Sex and the City opens today and we can hardly wait to run to the theater in our Manolos and outrageously patterned prints! All of the ladies--Carrie, Charlotte, Miranda and Samantha--make it back to the big screen.

The movie picks up about three years after the series ended, with Carrie as Big's fiancee, Miranda as a Brooklyn mom and Charlotte as a happy adoptive parent. Samantha meanwhile has decamped to Malibu with the ever-stunning Smith. Of course there are cosmo-laden reunions, a big wedding day to plan, fights, changes and all the inner dialogue a gal could ask for.

In the spirit of the sexiest city of all, we offer you some spots to check out in The Big Apple, where the film was mostly shot. Don't forget your tutu!

Where to Host a Smashing Party: New York Public Library, 5th Avenue The main branch of the NYPL has it all: old school glamour, stunning architecture and plenty of marble steps to ascend. You can rent it out for private parties (event planners are required) or just visit any day of the week from 11 am-6 pm. This is where the big event in the film takes place...

Where to Check in: Hotel Giraffe This hotel may look unassuming, but the building's Piano Suite area was actually transformed into Big's apartment for sections of the movie. With interiors inspired by the 1920s and 30s, rooms feature 10-foot ceilings, original photographs and Egyptian cotton sheets and towels. Book their "Diva's Only" weekend package (at $445 per person) and get all kinds of groups treats like prosecco, a pole dancing class and manicures.

More, you ask? Why, just keep reading....

Shopping with Classic NYC Movies

April 3, 2008 at 3:00 PM | 0 Comments

With the release of the "Sex and the City" movie, a new wave of tourists is poised to enter the Big Apple with one question in mind: Where would Carrie shop? But she's hardly the first person who has looked at the fleet of taxis and seen a shopping-bag-friendly mode of transportation.

Of course with the influx of cheap-chic mall stores like H&M and Forever 21, New York trends reach the rest of the country much faster than they used to, but there's nothing like indulging in a little retail therapy in New York. Let these movie scenes get you started:

Tiffany & Co., as seen in "Breakfast at Tiffany's" and "Sex and the City." Fully 90 percent of the foot traffic in this grande-dame store on weekends is comprised of curious tourists, not engagement-ready moguls. Still, even if you can't afford the wares, window shopping is free. (BYO croissant.) 727 Fifth Ave.

Fictional Travel: Don't Go Anywhere With Carrie Bradshaw

March 6, 2008 at 8:50 AM | 0 Comments

Love ain't so grand after all for Carrie and Big... errr, Sarah Jessica Parker and Chris Noth in these promo shots for the upcoming "Sex and the City" movie. What, Bradshaw couldn't get hold of the "Darjeeling Limited" suitcases?

The film's trailer and spoilers posted on the Internet suggest that Carrie and Big--uh, big spoiler alert!--get married, or close to the altar at least.

Also, Carrie takes a tropical trip with Samantha, Charlotte and Miranda. No wonder she needs so much luggage! Good thing she has Big around to haul it all--keeps her looking way more classy than notorious over-packer Paris Hilton.
