Still, as far as this election cycle is concerned, the bumbling economy is public enemy number one, and apart from its raunchy plot lines and brunch conversations, SATC is best known for its materialistic excess. And SJP might not literally be Carrie Bradshaw, the character she played on the long-running HBO series, but she’s just as much of a fashionplate. The frequent Vogue cover star is even co-hosting the fundraiser with the glossy’s editor Anna Wintour (who released her own, more frightening ad, which you can watch below). The glitzy event will surely attract a lot of attention (and raise buckets of cash), but from who?
Look, the under-30 hope-and-change idealists who worked for Obama’s 2008 election campaign are by no means immune to the glitter of big-name celebs, but Sarah Jessica Parker and Sex and the City are ancient news. When the series premiered in 1998, today’s college kids were way too young to watch it. In fact, in its latest effort to milk the SATC cash-cow with a CW prequel series, the franchise signed on a whole new cast of stars. Sarah Jessica Parker is not the future!
Next time, bring on Rihanna or something, okay?
