Kathy Najimy supports Kim Cattrall over co-star Sarah Jessica Parker amid feud
Kathy Najimy seemingly took a side in the “Sex and the City” cast drama, sending “love and support” to Kim Cattrall instead of her “Hocus Pocus” co-star Sarah Jessica Parker.
“@KimCattrall Sending you alll the love and support in the WORLD today!! one of the best, most authentic humans in the ‘business’ and maybe the world! dinner soooon my love!” Najimy tweeted on Thursday, one day after Parker called her feud with Cattrall “very painful.”
Najimy added in another tweet that she was “sending love” to the “brilliant authentic talented beautiful hilarious” Cattrall. Cattrall has yet to reply to either of the messages.
Najimy’s tweets come a few months after she and Parker wrapped filming “Hocus Pocus 2” in January. Several fans, who have been looking forward to the 1993 sequel for years, joked about the co-stars’ tension on their upcoming press tour later this year.
“popcorn ready for the Hocus Pocus 2 press tour,” someone tweeted.
“Not Kathy Najimy joining in on the SJP / KC feud!!! The Hocus Pocus 2 press tour’s about to be awkwardddd,” another added.
“Hocus Pocus 2 press tour ’bout to be real fun!!!!,” a user chimed in.
Najimy’s comments came one day after Parker addressed her bad blood with her former “SATC” co-star.
“I’ve spent a lot of years working really hard to always be decent to everybody on the set, to take care of people, to be responsible to and for people, both my employers and the people that I feel I’m responsible for as a producer of the show,” Parker said on Wednesday’s episode of THR’s “Awards Chatter” podcast.
“And there just isn’t anyone else who’s ever talked about me this way, so it’s very painful.”
Parker, 57, claimed that the two were on good terms until 2017 when Cattrall, 65, made certain demands before signing on for a third “SATC” film. However, Parker insisted that they’re not in a “fight.”
“There is not a ‘fight’ going on. There has been no public dispute or spat or conversations or allegations made by me or anybody on my behalf,” she said.
“I wouldn’t do it. That is not the way I would have it. So I just wish that they would stop calling this a ‘catfight’ or an ‘argument,’ because it doesn’t reflect actually — there has been one person talking.”
Meanwhile, Cattrall and Najimy hung out in April, posting a selfie together.
“Catching up on all the gossip with my pal @kathynajimy ..💋,” Cattrall captioned the snap.
“I love this brilliant wise TALENTED resilient interesting compassionate beautiful fun funny HONEST gorgeous ‘woman’s Woman’ @kimcattrall,” Najimy, 65, wrote.
