Sarah Jessica Parker doesn't watch And Just Like That...
The 60-year-old actress reprised the role of Carrie Bradshaw to star in the Sex and The City sequel series - but Sarah doesn't enjoy watching herself on-screen.
During an appearance on Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen, Sarah explained: "I don't not watch it because I'm being cavalier about my relationship [to the project]. I don't watch it because I don't love watching my work [and] myself."
Despite this, Sarah insisted that she cares enormously about the TV show.
The actress explained: "It doesn't touch on how I feel about the experience or how much I care. In fact, it's because I care that I can't watch it.'
Earlier this year, Sarah stressed that she feels proud to play Carrie.
The actress has played the iconic character in Sex and The City and the show's revival series, And Just Like That... - and Sarah admits that she's always relished the experience of playing Carrie.
During an appearance on the Call Her Daddy podcast, the actress shared: "First of all, the way she was speaking, like her choice of language, I'd never seen or heard a woman talk like that."
Sarah then explained that she respects Carrie's "curiosity about sex and sexual politics".
The actress - who stars in And Just Like That... alongside the likes of Kristin Davis and Cynthia Nixon - added: "Which is not like me - I don't talk about that at all even with friends. I'll talk about it globally, but I don't sit and share intimate details of my life that way."
Sarah thinks of Carrie as being a "little survivor".
The actress - who is married to Hollywood star Matthew Broderick - explained: "I admired that she was scrappy.
"She was a little survivor. She had instincts to keep her head [up], not always making smart choices and falling short of being the best friend or the best girlfriend or her best self, but I also was very happy that they were writing her that way."

The siblings behind Via Porta open an Italian-inspired cafe in Melbourne's leafy north-east
Previous SlideNext Slide Cafe$$$$ The latest venue by siblings Sarah, Simon, Ryan and Jonathan Cosentino (Via Porta) has opened on a quiet strip of shops on Waterdale Road in Ivanhoe. Its name honours their mother, Lucia, who instilled in them a love of food and hospitality. But it also translates to 'light' in their native Italian. The warm and welcoming eatery with its large open kitchen is inspired by the Cosentinos' upbringing, including the homely pastas that graced the family table. The menu includes a punchy puttanesca and 'nonna's' bolognese. But there are also fresh ideas on show. Chicken schnitzel showered in parmesan comes with a sidecar of vodka-tomato sauce. Ricotta hotcakes served with maple syrup, mascarpone and blueberry compote are 'like a hybrid between your standard pancake and your Japanese pancake'. A few Via Porta favourites are also in the mix. There are fried eggs in spicy all'arrabbiata-inspired sugo; crab spaghetti with fermented chilli and lemon crumb; and doorstopper French toast, made of croissant dough that's baked in a loaf tin then topped with poached pears, almond brittle, caramel sauce and creme anglaise.

Jennifer Love Hewitt says she has ‘not talked' to Sarah Michelle Gellar since she was 18 amid feud rumours
Jennifer Love Hewitt revealed she hasn't spoken to Sarah Michelle Gellar for almost three decades, breaking her silence on rumours of a feud with her I Know What You Did Last Summer co-star. In a recent interview with Vulture, the 46-year-old actress downplayed online speculation of a falling out with Gellar, 48. However, Hewitt shared that she hadn't seen or communicated with Gellar, 48, since she was 18 when the hit 1997 slasher film was released. 'I honestly don't even know what that was or how that all came to be,' Hewitt said of the rumoured bad blood between her and the Buffy the Vampire Slayer star. 'I just think people don't want the narrative to be easy. Why do we always have to be against each other and out for each other?' 'I haven't seen Sarah,' the former Party of Five star added. 'Literally, we've not talked since I saw her at 18 years old when the first movie came out. That's why it's so funny to me. People were like, 'Say something back.' And I'm like, 'What am I going to say? I've not seen her.' On my side, we're good. I have no idea where this is coming from.' Hewitt played the lead character of Julie James in I Know What You Did Last Summer and reprised her role in the 1998 sequel, I Still Know What You Did Last Summer. The actress made a surprise return to the franchise in its fourth instalment, I Know What You Did Last Summer, which was released Friday. Gellar's husband, Freddie Prinze Jr., who portrayed Julie's love interest, Ray Bronson, in the original films, also reprised his role in the 2025 sequel. Neither star appeared in the direct-to-video 2006 stand-alone sequel, I'll Always Know What You Did Last Summer, or the short-lived 2022 TV series, I Know What You Did Last Summer. Gellar and Ryan Phillippe co-starred in the original movie alongside Hewitt and Prinze Jr. However, they did not return for the following I Know What You Did Last Summer projects after the first movie since both of their characters, beauty queen Helen Shivers and boyfriend Barry Cox, were killed off. However, Gellar made a brief cameo appearance during a dream sequence in the latest instalment. On Monday, The Ghost Whisperer star accompanied Prinze Jr. to the premiere of the movie, which was also attended by Hewitt. During Hewitt's interview with Vulture ahead of the premiere, the actress was asked if she planned to see Gellar at the event. 'I hope so,' she told the outlet. After the premiere, social media users pointed out that Gellar and Hewitt did not appear in red carpet photos together. After being questioned by fans about the rumoured feud, Gellar later confirmed she didn't encounter Hewitt at the event, though she praised her former co-star. 'For everyone asking - I never got to see @jenniferlovehewitt who is fantastic in the movie,' Gellar wrote on Instagram. 'I was inside with my kids when the big carpet happened. And unfortunately JLH didn't come to the after-party. 'If you have ever been to one of these it's crazy,' she added. 'I sadly didn't get pics with most of the cast. But that doesn't change how amazing I think they all are. Unfortunately some things happen only in real life and not online.' Speculation of a feud between actresses began to swirl in December 2024, when Gellar was asked by an Extra reporter about Hewitt's potential return for the 2025 movie. 'I have nothing to do with that,' she said before abruptly ending the interview. Gellar later took to her Instagram story to explain her response was due to her wariness over violating a nondisclosure agreement that prohibited her from spoiling casting announcements. 'Aspiring actors, please note: This 'deer in the headlights' reaction is perfect for when you are excited to see so many old friends in one project but have already stupidly forgotten what NDA means once this month,' she wrote alongside a photo taken on the movie's set. That same month, Hewitt confirmed she would be reprising her role in the sequel with a post on Instagram. In April, Gellar further fuelled speculation of bad blood between her and Hewitt when she shared the trailer for 2025's I Know What You Did Last Summer, tagging members of the main cast, including Prinze Jr., Madelyn Cline, Gabbriette Bechtel, Sarah Pidgeon and Chase Sui Wonders and director/screenwriter Jennifer Kaytin Robinson and co-screenwriter Sam Lansky but notably leaving out Hewitt. While some fans on social media took the omission as a definitive sign of a feud between the stars, a few Reddit commentators noted that Hewitt has activated an Instagram feature that prevents her account from being tagged by other users.
