+1. I thought that's what most people would do if they had manners.
That’s different. It was a co-worker.
If somebody I hated or caused me harm/grief in the past and I wasn’t in friendly or speaking terms and never planned to be—seeing their condolences very soon after a loved one’s death when I knew it wasn’t sincere would cause me further pain. Not something to inflict on the grieving.
I totally disagree. I would be touched and consider it an olive branch, of sorts.
Anonymous wrote:They should do another movie, and it should be realistic.
Miranda should hate her life at Big Law. She should be sick of the sexual harassment and being screwed over by male partners. She should be sick of her bartender husband who contributes nothing financially. She should be stressed out by NYC private schools and kid drama. She should be 10 pounds overweight, and she should wear yoga pants and athleisure.
The brunette should be uber stressed out about NYC private school drama. She should be engaged in mommy wars. Sexless marriage. Her husband should be cheating. She should have a fling with her ex in a moment of weakness and get pregnant. Then he should tell her he's gay.
Big should be struggling with alcohol and opioid addiction due to his old man back pain. His business ventures are failing, and they need to downsize and cut back. Carrie grapples with having to move into a one bedroom walk-up with only one closet and having to be nursemaid to old man Big. Lots of whining about how this wasn't the life she signed up for. Aiden is very successful and happily married with a handful of kids. Carrie reads about him in a profile in Architectural Digest, and she's shocked that he is ridiculously wealthy with homes all around the world. She runs into him on the street with his oldest child and she wonders what her life would be like had she stayed with him and had kids.
Samantha is MIA throughout the entire film. There are references to her through phone calls and media coverage of her glamorous life. She's too busy traveling and dating an A list actor (think: Pierce Brosnan/George Clooney). Sadly, 2/3 of the way through the movie she dies in a car crash thanks to paparazzi (a la princess Di). The girls come together for the funeral and take stock of where they are, whine about their boo hoo problems, and ultimately realize that Sam lived her life to the fullest to the very end...and only the good die young. They make a pact to put themselves first and agree to dump their husbands. Carrie moves back to her old apartment, Miranda gets a rental in the city, and the brunette still has her fabulous apt.
The gays make an appearance near the end of the film. They're happily married with children and have a perfect NYC life. Thx girls are a little disappointed that the gays aren't up for partying, and for a moment they wonder if they made a mistake. Nonetheless, they preservere and continue to go shoe shopping and have brunch...just the girls (who are now old ladies), single and "fabulous."

I'm still so upset to learn they aren't all best friends in real life! Don't they all hang out together in the city with their families?
Why? Are you BBF with your coworkers?

She is on the record as supporting Kim Cattrall asking for more money and saying Kim should not be vilified for it.

After people realized the manipulative stuff she was pulling to try to force Kim in to another train wreck of a movie. More importantly, Kim says she didn't ask for more money. Kim said there weren't even conversations. See what SJP did?

Kim and SJP may have been "friends" as characters on the show, but they were co-workers in real life.

Isn't this basically equivalent to when an acquaintance posts about the loss of a loved one on social media and even if you are not close, had a falling out or haven't talk to that person in years, you take 10 seconds to respond and say "sorry for your loss" because even though you may not be close to them, you can still feel for anyone who is hurting and you do not wish them pain but then the receiver responds to said condolences by saying "Sorry, everyone else can say sorry but not YOU!" Whether you are a celebrity or not, it's weird.

She's grieving for ffs and SJP does seem pretty obsessed with projecting a nice girl persona. She should have expressed her condolences privately if they were sincere!
Where is the IG post from SJP that is as rude at KC?
"Dearest Kim, my love and condolences to you and yours and Godspeed to your beloved brother. Xx."
The issue is that while I'm totally okay with believing that SJP is fake or that they have bad blood between them, Kim's response just makes Kim look bad.
This. Kim should have just completely ignored SJP's very gracious post, because she's only made herself look bad.
