Kristin Davis has expressed her dissatisfaction with the media’s emphasis on her and her Sex and the City and And Just Like That… co-stars.

She portrayed Charlotte York in the show, and she returned her character in the HBO Max version.

“Everyone wants to comment, pro or nay or whatever, on our hair and our faces and our this and our that. The level of intensity of it was a shock,” Davis, 56, recently told the Sunday Times’ Style Magazine.

“I feel angry and I don’t want to feel angry all the time, so I don’t look at it, I just know it’s there,” she said of the criticism, comparing it to how her body was dissected in the media during the show’s first run.

“That’s the problem with social media, right, is that you don’t know what those people are doing. You don’t know anything about them.”

“They’re just hurling bombs at you. It makes me angry.”

Davis also discussed the backlash she had when filming the original series while she was in her 30s.

“They would write articles every week about how I was ‘pear-shaped,’ which I didn’t feel was a compliment at the time,” she said. “It would stress me out a fair amount because I couldn’t avoid it. I kind of feel like that’s how it is now too.”

“But I also feel — I’m going to be blunt — I feel like, ‘F–k you. F–k you people, like, come over here and do it better.’ You know what I mean? Like, what are you doing?”

Sarah Jessica, also 56, called the conversation on her appearance ‘misogynist.’ Kristin’s comments come after Sarah Jessica’s.

“There’s so much misogynist chatter in response to us that would never. Happen. About. A. Man,” she told Vogue in early November. “‘Grey hair grey hair grey hair. Does she have grey hair?’ I’m sitting with Andy Cohen and he has a full head of grey hair, and he’s exquisite. Why is it okay for him? I don’t know what to tell you people.”

“It almost feels as if people don’t want us to be perfectly okay with where we are, as if they almost enjoy us being pained by who we are today, whether we choose to age naturally and not look perfect, or whether you do something if that makes you feel better,” she added. “I know what I look like. I have no choice. What am I going to do about it? Stop aging? Disappear?”
