about the pressures she faced when, early in her career, Hollywood was “literally a place of stick-skinny women with blond hair and blue eyes.”
She also recalled how playing Charlotte in “Sex and the City” only made her body image issues worse, including experiencing body shaming. Davis recalled hearing comments, “‘Kristin’s hips are bigger than her shoulders,” and I’m like, ‘But they’re not! And then I’m like, well, who cares? What if they are?’ But I mean, it’s just ongoing.”
Davis’ statement is also a nod to her character’s evolution on the series sequel “And Just Like That”. In an episode, Charlotte layers up shapewears to get a certain look, which she later ditches it and walks off confidently.
