I love that gorgeous bloggers around the world are taking pictures of Samantha (Kim Cattrall) wearing my Cleopatra earrings on screen during Sex and the City 2<\/a>! That said, I discourage you from doing this without permission because people are very uptight about movie piracy. If someone thinks you’re recording the whole movie,\u00a0 your ass can land in jail. I don’t really have the budget to travel around the world bailing y’all out.<\/p>\n

It started with Fashion Herald<\/a> in New York, who sneaked a picture on the movie’s opening day but wasn’t arrested, to my great relief.<\/p>\n

I didn’t realize this was going to be an international fad until Julia<\/a> of The Thank You Project<\/a> surprised me with a photo from SATC2’s Moscow premiere.<\/p>\n

From Russia, with love from Julia. Samantha in a coy moment.<\/p><\/div>\n

Then the Philippines chimed in. The Bag Hag<\/a> got permission to take photos at a private screening sponsored by Mercedes Benz<\/a>, so she went wild. Here are two cute shots of Samantha and the Cleopatras.<\/p>\n

Here’s a cropped close-up.<\/p>\n

But this one is my favorite because it’s taken just after Samantha says her “Lawrence of my labia” line. All the critics hated that line but most of the people I’ve spoken to about the movie loved it. My theater was definitely screaming with laughter.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Thank you, ladies! It’s very touching to know that people are thinking of me in such far-flung places.<\/p>\n

UPDATED TO ADD: Lenya of The Fashion Loving Stylist<\/a> didn’t get a picture but she did elicit a gasp for me in Australia. Wow! When I did this interview in 2008<\/a>, I said my plan was world domination. I feel like it’s finally coming true. Mwah ha ha ha. MWAH HA HA HA!<\/p>\n
