News that Kim Cattrall didn't sit through the premiere of Sex and the City the other night doesn't, on its own, suggest that she loathes her co-stars and hates the film, or any of the other things that are being suggested. It's quite natural for the stars of movies not to watch them at the public premieres, although of course they are contracted to show up for the red carpet.
Unfortunately the PR didn't say this. Instead, she said something like 'Oh bloody hell, the Mail has pictures of Kim going out for dinner.' And the Mail heard her saying it and so went to town with lots of secret 'sources' saying the set of the movie was awash with rivalry and riven with dispute.
Maybe it was. Maybe it wasn't. Kim Cattrall has said - as this blog mentioned some time back - that she only took the work for the money. Nobody is expecting it to be a work of art, or true to life.
In fact, if they did all hate one another it's a bit of a turn up for the books as far as I'm concerned: at least it means that in the moments of on-screen friendship, the stars are actually having to act.
