Kristin Davis recently revealed that she and her Sex and the City co-stars, including Sarah Jessica Parker, Cynthia Nixon, and Kim Cattrall, were apprehensive about on-screen nudity during the show’s original run from 1998 to 2004. They feared such scenes could lead to being "shunned" by the entertainment industry. Davis reflected on how drastically Hollywood has evolved, pointing out that today’s red carpets often feature sheer dresses revealing far more than they ever imagined back then.
Davis, who will reprise her beloved role as Charlotte York in the upcoming third season of And Just Like That... in 2025, shared these insights on her podcast Are You a Charlotte?. Sarah Jessica Parker also spoke about her decision never to appear nude in the series, a choice supported by creator Darren Star. Parker admitted she was simply too shy for such scenes, though she respected others who felt comfortable.

Two decades later, Sex and the City remains iconic, sparking continued conversations about its cultural impact, evolving standards in Hollywood, and the fearless women who brought these beloved characters to life.
