“Sex and the City” was a revolutionary show that brought millions of women together every Sunday night to watch realistic career women discuss life, fashion, and Sex-mostly sex- in the Big Apple.

Carrie Bradshaw - Sarah Jessica Parker, who played narrator and main character Carrie Bradshaw, has hardly been able to stay out of the public eye since the show wrapped.
