'Sex And The City' Star Kristin Davis Says She Didn't Feel 'Protected' Filming The Show's Sex Scenes

The actor revealed she hid in her dressing room after filming a sex scene without an intimacy coordinator during the show's earlier days.

Kristin Davis, who starred as Charlotte York in the TV series “Sex and the City,” is opening up about her experiences filming intimate scenes on the hit show.

In a new interview with People, the actor, 59, said she felt “scared” of filming the show’s racier moments, as intimacy coordinators, who advocate for a safe work environment for actors during nude scenes or simulated sex scenes, weren’t widespread back in the ’90s. The show first aired in 1998.

“I did not feel protected,” Davis admitted in the story published Thursday. “I had to hide in my dressing room at the end of the scenario. I had to hide in my dressing room and call my manager in L.A., at 2 in the morning.”

Davis also confessed she felt “confused” about how many sex scenes the show featured, because she thought it would be off-putting to the show’s primarily female audience.

“I don’t know how the men would feel watching, ’cause I’m not a man. But it would be more for the male gaze than for the female gaze,” she said. “A female gaze — they don’t wanna see that.”
