How much would you pay to join the stars of Sex and the City on the red carpet at the premiere of the movie?
One woman from Japan won Oxfam's auction to attend the New York event with Kristin Davis.
The winning bid? $52,100 – which goes entirely to the international relief and development organization.
The winner, who found out about the auction from an interview with Davis in last week's Us Weekly, plans to go to the premiere with her fiance.
"Oxfam's mission is to alleviate poverty and injustice by helping people learn skills and create lives," Davis explained to Us. "I just got back from Africa and saw firsthand that we're making a long-term difference. It gave me a sense of satisfaction."
The prize includes a pair of Jimmy Choos for the occasion and an on-air meet and greet with Davis, who plays Charlotte York.
Earlier this month, a man from the U.K. placed a winning bid of $40,100 at an Oxfam auction to join Scarlett Johansson at the L.A. premiere of He's Just Not That Into You.

Seeing as how Kristin's sex shots just came out, maybe he thought he could get some action!

[cmmdee]

^^ Exactly. Perfect PR. Samantha would be so proud!

[Karistiona]

Oh I'm jealous, if I was really rich I'd love to do something like that! I can't wait for this movie

[MissVenus]

This is the first movie I have been excitedly counting down to for ages! I have already informed my husband that I will be going to see this movie the day it comes out so he needs to be thinking of what to cook himself for dinner that night.

^That's so cute. I've been counting down too, except I informed my Fiance that he has no choice but to go with me.

[MissVenus]

Yeah, there is no way my husband will go to this movie with me! He goes crazy cause I watch re-runs of S&TC on TV every night when I've seen the whole series (about 10 times) and own all 6-seasons on DVD!

He complains that even he has seen every episode by default.

Nope, he is not coming with me... this is strictly best friend territory!

[sparkly]

^LMAO, I don't blame him for refusing then.

My fiance has pretty much lucked out by not having to watch the show with me. But I told him that if he goes, I'll give him whatever he wants. Surprisingly, no one I know likes the show, and I'm not going alone.

[MissVenus]

I don't make 'whatever he wants' deals with my hubby... I've been caught out on that one before.

PS... I've still got carpet burn scars on my knees to prove it!

LMAO. Men are funny, and they take that offer literally, don't they? We'll have to see what happens. If he gets out of line, I'll just give him "the look."
