Sex And The City Stars Issue Statement Regarding Sexual Assault Claims Against “Mr. Big” Actor
As if the worthless, poorly-reviewed reboot couldn’t be any more of a disaster, now the actor who played Mr. Big (played in the past tense because I guess they killed him off in the first episode, lol), Chris Noth, has been accused of multiple sexual assaults. The three stars of Sex And The City (I refuse to call it “And Just Like That,” which is the stupidest TV show title in the history of television) issued a joint statement today in response to the accusations against the actor who played Carrie’s dead husband, and it reads in part, “We support the women who have come forward and shared their painful experiences.” The full statement:
That same image containing the statement (they couldn’t be bothered to type it out?) was posted on Kristin Davis’ Twitter and Cynthia Nixon’s Instagram (but, oddly, not on either of Sarah Jessica Parker’s social media accounts). Kim Cattrall, meanwhile, has emerged as the only winner here, dodging a major bullet by having nothing to do with this train wreck.

The succinct remarks by And Just Like That.. leads Parker, Davis and Nixon comes just hours after Noth was canned from CBS’ The Equalizer over the rape claims from two separate women.
Shooting to premium cable fame in the late 1990s as the Mr. Big love interest of Parker’s Carrie Bradshaw on SATC, Law & Order vet Noth returned for the first episode of the HBO Max revival of sorts And Just Like That… In fact, the fallout from the death of Noth’s Big from a Peleton workout induced heart attack provides the dramatic thrust of the Michael Patrick King executive produced AJLT.
In real life, fallout from the claims first reported by THR last week involve a rape in Los Angeles in 2004 and a rape in New York City in 2015 has seen Noth’s Peleton ad scrubbed from the world as well as the actor being dumped on December 17 by A3 Artists Agency — to whom he just signed a few months back.
Also losing a reported $12 million sale of his tequila brand, Noth has insisted that the encounters with the two women on separate coasts were “consensual.” Hiring a heavyweight lawyer in Lavely & Singer attorney Andrew Brettler, Noth has gone on to say “The accusations against me made by individuals I met years, even decades, ago are categorically false.”
