'Sex and the City' star Sarah Jessica Parker gets tongue-tied in awkward response to Lauren Sánchez Vogue cover question
During a game titled 'Hello, Lover, or Leave It?' on Sunday's episode of 'Watch What Happens Live,' host Andy Cohen asked his guest — and longtime pal — how she felt about Sánchez's cover story with the prestigious fashion magazine.
Parker, 60, raised her eyebrows and let out a high-pitched 'um' before shrugging her shoulders and lifting her hands up in the air.
'I … I … I … I mean …' the 'Sex and the City' star stuttered with an uncomfortable grin on her face.
Eventually, Parker — who has been on the cover of Vogue multiple times over the years, most recently in 2021 — said, 'Why shouldn't she? I was fortunate enough. Why shouldn't she as well have that opportunity?'
As for Sánchez, she got her time to shine last month.
Mere moments after the former news anchor, 55, said 'I do' to the billionaire Amazon founder in Venice, Italy, in front of a gaggle of famous faces, Vogue.com published an article titled, 'Lauren Sánchez and Jeff Bezos Are Married! See Inside Her Final Wedding Dress Fitting.'
For both her cover shoot and the star-studded nuptials, which cost around $50 million, Sánchez wore a lace long-sleeved Dolce & Gabbana gown.
The dress featured a corseted waist, turtleneck and buttons from the neck to the floor, culminating in a mermaid-style skirt.
The mother of three wore her dark brown hair pulled back into a loose bun, leaving some pieces out in front underneath her lace-trimmed veil.
She accessorized with Dolce & Gabbana Alta Gioielleria Miracolo earrings featuring four diamonds cut from a single stone and inlaid in white gold as her 'something borrowed.'
Sánchez — known for showing off her fit physique in revealing outfits — drew her inspiration from the high-necked lace wedding dress Sophia Loren's character wore to marry Cary Grant's character in the 1958 rom-com 'Houseboat.'
'It went from 'I want a simple, sexy modern dress' to 'I want something that evokes a moment and where I am right now,'' she told Vogue, acknowledging that the look is 'a departure from what people expect.'
But according to Sánchez, she is 'a different person than [she] was five years ago.'
As Page Six previously reported, Anna Wintour — who recently stepped down as Vogue's editor-in-chief — helped Sánchez come to a final decision on her gown.

Tom Holland says Bond would be 'pinnacle' of career
Tom Holland has admitted playing James Bond would be the "pinnacle" of his career. The Spider-Man star is said to be in the frame to portray the suave spy in Denis Villeneuve's upcoming movie in the franchise and while the 29-year-old actor refused to be drawn on the speculation, he suggested landing the role would be a dream come true. Speaking to Gordon Ramsay on YouTube, he said of the rumours: "Listen, there's speculation at the moment. We'll keep it to a minimum for now. We'll get there one day." The Hell's Kitchen star then further pressed Holland on the issue. He said: "Can you imagine what's going to happen to your life if you do? First of all, you'd love that opportunity, right?" Holland replied: "I mean every young British actor, it's the pinnacle of working in our industry. I already consider myself to be the luckiest kid alive. I could not have dreamed to have the career that I have." The Devil All the Time actor's comments come shortly after Rocketman star Taron Egerton dismissed the idea he could replace Daniel Craig as 007 because he is "too messy". Asked about the possibility of playing Bond, he told Collider: "I don't think I'm a good choice for it. I think I'm too messy for that. "I think I'm not— I really love James Bond and particularly Daniel Craig's tenure. But I think I wouldn't be good at it, and I think there's so many cool, younger actors who would be great for it. I think it would be wasted on me, probably." Egerton observed that leading the Bond franchise is "quite an undertaking". And he suggested that the scale of the project might not suit him, either. The 35-year-old actor explained: "That's not to say that I don't have aspirations and plans and also that I wouldn't be interested in doing something that's more commercial, because of course I would. "I think I'm a period in my life where, as you say, I've been probably following the things that speak to me on a creative level a little bit more, but, you know, I'm sure I won't feel that way forever. "But James Bond is quite an undertaking and I think, one, as far as I'm aware, nobody's asking me to do it." Egerton suggested that he might find more satisfaction in pursuing other film projects. He said: "It's possibly not quite the thing that would make me happiest. I do think it's a big old undertaking, it kind of consumes your life, a role like that." Meanwhile, Sydney Sweeney is reportedly being lined up to play the next Bond girl. The 27-year-old actress is wanted by new 007 director Denis Villeneuve for a role in the upcoming film and the move is said to have the backing of Amazon boss Jeff Bezos, with the company acquiring creative control of the spy franchise from long-serving producers Barbara Broccoli and Michael G Wilson. A source told The Sun on Sunday newspaper: "Sydney is the top name on the casting sheet for Bond. "Denis believes she is hugely talented, as well as having an alluring appeal to younger generations, vital in modernising the franchise. "They've hung out together a lot and he has admired her stratospheric rise. "Plus Sydney has the quality of being athletic and able to perform physical scenes, as well as being feminine and following in the legacy of the Bond girls."

The Logies red carpet winners
The Logies red carpet continues to be a delightful car crash of old-school taffeta glamour, attention-seeking ensembles and local labels. Here are the celebrities that survived relatively unscathed before the ceremony at The Star in Sydney on Sunday. Poh Ling Yeow in Velani Gold Logie nominee and MasterChef Australia judge Poh Ling Yeow took inspiration for her corseted dress with a voluminous olive green drop waist skirt from the Paris runways. The dramatic gown is by leading Sydney couturier Nicky Apostolopoulos, the creative force behind Velani. 'We played around with silhouettes, but Poh definitely wanted the corsetry,' Apostolopoulos says. 'She wanted to be snatched.' Apostolopoulos used vintage gold lace for the corset, with a lace-up back, popularised on the runway at US designer Daniel Roseberry's shows for Schiaparelli at Paris Fashion Week. Kylah Day in Mariam Seddiq Kylah Day, a nominee for the Graham Kennedy Award for most popular new talent, tapped her fashion knowledge as a former model to nab one of designer Mariam Seddiq's most striking looks from her Australian Fashion Week show in May. Stylist Jess Pecoraro secured the gently ruched sheer gown from Seddiq's atelier in Sydney for the star of the Netflix series Territory. Pecoraro didn't have to look far for the dress, with her model sister Roberta having worn it for its runway debut. Zoë Foster Blake in Amy Lawrance Since her divisive foray into wearing Italian label Dolce & Gabbana for the 2022 Logies, with its strong lingerie influences, Lego Masters presenter Hamish Blake's beauty entrepreneur wife, Zoë Foster Blake, has worn Alemais designs, but this year she gave an emerging designer time in the spotlight. Foster Blake's dress, featuring a skirt with pronounced pleats, is from Amy Lawrance, National Designer Award winner from this year's Melbourne Fashion Festival. Lawrance utilises the needlework technique faggoting, which is popular in lingerie, but unlike that Dolce & Gabbana dress in 2022, the result here is demure and delightful. Ayesha Madon in Acne Studios The stars of Heartbreak High can be counted on to deliver antidotes to the Logies' traditional brand of glamour. While Chloe Hayden took an eclectic approach in a dreamy, bordering on nightmare Romance Was Born dress with florals, lace, sheer panelling and bows competing for attention, co-star Ayesha Madon was more streamlined. Madon's strapless check dress with an exaggerated neckline from Swedish brand Acne Studios added nerd chic to the evening's proceedings. 'We are pushing a vibe and leaning into who she will be after Heartbreak High,' says stylist Tori Knowles. Sophie Monk in Cappellazzo Couture It's been 24 years since former Bardot singer and Love Island host Sophie Monk made her Logies debut in a charming beret and a sweet tie, but now she's stiff competition for fellow red carpet veteran Sonia Kruger in the tight dress and tan department. Monk chose a pure white Grecian dress with a plunging neckline, cinched at the waist with a matching corset. With perilously high white platform shoes, she'll be steering clear of any stray negronis inside The Star.
