does anyone know how much money brands pay for product placement in sex and the city? as a guy, ive refused to watch this show, until recent..now i'm hooked... however, i really wish they had better music running in the background...i could so hear this song called 'end of the day' by ben arthur at the end of the most recent rerun on hbo...

This interview with Sarah Jessica Parker, in which the actress equated rescuing either Manolo Blahnik shoes or a Kelly bag from her burning apartment to the heart-wrenching decision made by the title character in William Styron's "Sophie's Choice" was disappointing. To compare the nightmarish dilemma of a mother forced to value the life of one child over another to the choice of saving either a pair of designer shoes or a handbag is insensitive and misguided. During the Holocaust, people were forced to make choices which haunted them for decades, yet for many survivors like myself, these choices saved lives, not anything purchasable in a boutique on Fifth Avenue. Shame on Sarah Jessica Parker, and shame on the reporter for calling her "Sophie's Choice" comment "perfect" in Newsweek.

Perhaps they are trying to muscle in on People Magazine's demographics.

Those questions make me think the Newsweekers have been reading Black Table.

I'm more interested in her opinion on Big Murakami Balls.
