Washingtonienne Resurfaces!In our excitement over nubile, young Spitzer hooker Ashley Alexandra Dupre, we completely forgot about that other politician-probed prostitute that captivated America’s hearts and loins not so long ago: Jessica Cutler, who gained notoriety by writing about the anal preferences of Washington muckety-mucks on her blog, Washingtonienne, back in 2004. But now she’s back.

Stars Reveal ‘Sex and the City’ Movie Might Be Kind of a Downer
In case you didn’t get enough spoilers from the trailer for the Sex and the City movie — which suggests that Steve cheats on Miranda, Samantha cheats on Smith Jared, and Big leaves Carrie at the altar — the four stars sat down with Logo recently and elaborated a little more on the plotlines. For instance, Cynthia Nixon says Steve’s cheating is about “even more than unfaithfulness” and lets us know that we’re going to see a lot more of crazy-eyed Anne Meara swooping around with her Alzheimer’s. “Samantha is older,” Kim Cattrall says, “And that in itself is huge.” And something really bad goes down with Big and Carrie. “Something major happens that fundamentally changes who Carrie is,” says Sarah Jessica Parker, adding carefully that, “basically, it’s about the despair you feel when you’re 20 versus the despair you feel or the loss you feel when you’re 40.” Wow! This sure sounds like it’s going to be a fun night out with the girls! Then again, everyone knows SATC isn’t about the plot. It’s about the clothes. Only 88 more days! We can’t wait!

Some (But Not All) ‘Sex and the City’ Stars Paid Bonuses for Not Being DivasCynthia Nixon and Kristin Davis were given bonuses for their work on the Sex and the City movie, Star reports. Is it because they were willing to bare their breasts again even though they are both over 40? (We all remember that sailor episode and that was half a decade ago.) Or was it because they are just such damn good actresses? No, reports the celebrity weekly. It’s because Kim Cattrall is a bitch. According to the magazine, Nixon and Davis were quietly paid a bonus under the table just for dealing with her divalike antics. Now, Star mastermind Bonnie Fuller loves to cut down her women, and the whole “Kim Cattrall is difficult to work with” story line is older than Samantha herself, so we take this story with a grain of salt. Still, we have to wonder what Star thinks could be so hard about working with her that the two actresses needed to be paid off? Could she possibly be any more cruel than the fifth lady on Sex and the City — Manhattan? Because we hear that bitch is a monster.
