Brooke Empowered By Lipstick Jungle

Brooke had fun joking around with her daughter Rowan while out for afternoon tea in Santa Monica this week. Brooke just finished shooting the pilot for Candace Bushnell's Lipstick Jungle where she plays a high powered movie exec. If this show does for Brooke what Sex and the City did for SJP then Brooke has quite a lot to look forward to (including a fabulous wardrobe). When asked if she could relate to her new character Brooke says absolutely. She told Life Magazine:

I relate to not apologizing anymore for my power. Women are taught to undermine it, because it’s so threatening. But I don’t have to be self-deprecating anymore to be funny or to be liked.

Obviously she's been able to rise above it and get cast in one of the most talked about new shows of next season. Hopefully Lipstick Jungle will be able to fill the gaping void that Sex and the City left behind but that's a very hard challenge.

    I defiantly don't know if I could have taken the highroad and sucked up my pride to go to the wedding.

    I am looking forward to this show.

    Zerg- was the book a lot like Sex & the City? I am thinking about picking it up before the show starts.

    I had the pleasure of "working" with Brooke a few years ago, when she was doing a MOW in SLC, Utah. I was an extra in a scene with her, I don't know I would be in a scene with her. I played a nurse, I walked in and she was already sitting there reading a copy of rolling stone. I was like OMG that Brooke Shields. She looked up and smile, I was star struck and tongue tide. The whole day, she interacted with everyone. It was her b-day and she even gave an extra a piece of her b-day cake. She was so sweet. Vanessa Williams was also working on the movie, she was the total opposite. Nobody even dared look at her. She wasn't friendly at all. "Mr Big" was also in the movie and he was hot. Smiling

    GemStone, isn't she just the nicest person? My sister was actually somewhat friendly with her when they were younger - her dad lived in the same town on Long Island as we did when we were growing up (Glen Cove, NY)
