‘We've got this idea that you've got to have it all worked out': Kristin Davis on New York, nightclubs and being Charlotte
EXCLUSIVE: Filming in towering heels and a mini dress in a New York City nightclub felt like a homecoming for Kristin Davis. There was a time, of course, when shooting inside one of Manhattan's 'it' bars was a typical day a work for the actor during her six-season TV run (and two films) playing the prim and proper Charlotte York on Sex and the City. Now, as Charlotte, Davis has made her return to a nightclub – this time, on the show's spin-off, And Just Like That… 'Charlotte needs to be more competitive with her younger co-workers – and she tries to keep up with them and goes out at night,' Davis tells Stellar. 'Oh my gosh, it was so funny on the page, and really funny at the shoot because it was very much like the earlier days of Sex and the City. 'I was like, wow, we used to do this [going out] all the time!' Sporting oversized reading glasses, a white Dolce & Gabbana shirt with power shoulders that wouldn't look out of place in Charlotte's wardrobe and with her hair in loose curls, the 60-year-old is speaking to Stellar on Zoom from New York. The mother-of-two has spent most of her career portraying the ultimate New Yorker – and is part of franchise that has been credited for challenging Hollywood's representation of women on and off screen. 'I hope that it's shifting the narrative,' Davis says, of AJLT's depiction of women in their 50s. 'It's hard sometimes when you're in it to be sure about what the impact is or isn't, you know? 'We're helping each other have a louder voice and talking about the fact that we're still here, our lives are still going on. 'And I think if our show can be a part of that, we are here for it.' Davis points to the characters of Charlotte, Carrie Bradshaw (Sarah Jessica Parker), Miranda Hobbes (Cynthia Nixon) – and newer additions Seema (Sarita Choudhury) and Lisa Todd Wexley (Nicole Ari Parker) – for showing the reality of being a modern woman. 'Why should these characters be perfect? We've got this idea that you've got to have it all worked out. 'Don't we all struggle in life? You never know what the right choice is! This is life. I wish there were more women characters [in Hollywood] like us that could live and search for who they are. 'I continually ask myself, 'what do I really want?' It's rare to find [scripts] where women are able to really search and have options. They are pigeonholed in terms of wife, mother, girlfriend, single.' It's a sentiment shared by Davis' co-star, Nixon. 'Miranda was all about work and she was dating a lot of men, and having a lot of sex with essentially strangers – that has not been my experience,' Nixon tells Stellar. 'She was so cynical, and I am not cynical, I am a very optimistic person. 'I feel like I did, as I sort of got older, I gained some confidence from her outspokenness.' Davis pays tribute to her close friendships with Parker and Nixon, with the trio having worked together for nearly three decades since Sex and the City premiered in 1998. 'I'm a single mum, so my [friendships] are super, super important,' Davis says. 'Life is changing really quickly for all of us, it's hard to keep up. That's the challenge – can you stay open and curious and loving?' With every season of AJLT comes rumours of return appearances from past characters (the return of Samantha Jones, played by Kim Cattrall, in the second season broke the internet). So who would Davis like to see make an appearance? Her answer: Charlotte's ex-husband, Trey MacDougal (played by Kyle MacLachlan). 'I feel like there could be many scenarios where it [Trey's return] could work,' Davis says. 'I feel like in New York, you do run into people from your past pretty frequently. 'It would totally make sense that Trey and Charlotte would be at the same events or at the same restaurants. 'I don't know if that would be enough for them to explore their relationship but it would be fun to do it, if we could?' The third season on And Just Like That... premieres in Australia on Friday, May 30, on Max. New episodes are released weekly.

Leonardo DiCaprio's bikini-clad girlfriend Vittoria Ceretti kisses White Lotus hunk in steamy ad
Leonardo DiCaprio 's girlfriend Vittoria Ceretti brought the heat in a sizzling new Dolce & Gabbana campaign co-starring The White Lotus hunk Theo James. Daily Mail reported on the steamy coupling last year while the two were shooting the promotion in Capri. Ceretti, 26, showcased her fit form wearing a tiny white bikini with a triangle top. Her long, dark hair was wet and brushed away from her face, allowing the camera to focus on her piercing blue eyes. James, 40, who earned an Emmy nomination for his work on The White Lotus season two, showed off his ripped body in tight fitting white swimming briefs. The promotion celebrates the 25th anniversary of G&B's Light Blue fragrance and is an homage to the 2007 Light Blue Pour Homme ad, with David Gandy and Anna Jagodzinska. The campaign was deemed one of the sexiest of all time in a study published in 2008 by One Poll, according to Women's Wear Daily. 'Back in Capri with the iconic fragrances that have defined over 25 years of Mediterranean vibes,' the fragrance company wrote next to the spot on Thursday. 'Join #TheoJames and @vittoria as they bring the allure of #DGLightBlue to life in a new chapter of summer sensuality.' While Ceretti's online posts often receive some sexualized comments, it was James who got hearts racing. 'Theo James looks like he sprays D&G, stares in the mirror, and whispers 'perfection.'' wrote another. One stated, 'Whoever choose Theo James for this add deserves a raise.''Lord have mercy,' commented a grateful viewer. 'Wow, this makes me feel things. I had the perfume, I was on the boat in Capri… but somehow, the man didn't get the memo,' wrote one somewhat sarcastic follower. While Ceretti's online posts often receive some sexualized comments, it was James who got hearts racing Ceretti showcased her fit form wearing a tiny white bikini with a triangle top in the ad for the fragrance Light Blue Pour Homme. James showed off his ripped body in tight fitting white swimming briefs Stylists wet Ceretti's long, dark hair and brushed it away from her face. This allowed the camera to focus on her piercing blue eyes The Gentlemen star is considered the frontrunner to be the new James Bond after Daniel Craig stepped away from the iconic role. The actor recently completed work on the thriller Fuze, about an unexploded WWII bomb found in London, and the effort to save lives before it detonates. Ceretti was most recently spotted at Cannes, where she modeled a bronze toned one shoulder gown by Armani Privé. She was there supporting DiCaprio, 50, as he honored longtime friend and co-star Robert DeNiro, who received an honorary Palme d'Or.
