Kim Cattrall feel insecure

Kim Cattrall says she's no maneater.

The star of Sex And The City has revealed she's nothing like her character Samantha.

In fact, she says she's too insecure to approach men.

As Samantha in the hit TV series, and blockbuster movie, this gorgeous actress has no qualms about picking up men in bars.

But in real life Kim is nowhere near as confident: "I mean, not go into a bar and pick up a man – that is so foreign to me it's not even in my hemisphere. I am totally insecure.

"That is predatory behaviour, and I don't consider myself a predator. In fact, I feel sometimes that I am the pursued."

Kim is currently single since breaking up with her boyfriend of five years, chef Alan Wyse, and she's still finding her feet when it comes to dating.

She explains: "I've been so busy since we split that I haven't had much time to adjust.

"I'm starting to date; it feels all right. It’s very hard to be private about that. Whenever you step out for a drink or dinner, whomever you're with becomes your latest beau. Which is a bit of a laugh for my gay friends."Sarah Jessica Parker Sarah Jessica Parker agrees there's no rivalry with co-star Kim

In the meantime, Kim's keen to dispel the rumours that she doesn't get on with her SATC co-star Sarah Jessica Parker.

Sarah recently told US Elle: "I don’t think anybody wants to believe that I love Kim. I adore her. I wouldn't have done the movie without her."

And Kim agrees: "I think Sarah was right: people don't want to believe that we get on. They have too much invested in the idea of two strong, successful women fighting with each other. It makes for juicy gossip and copy.

"The truth of us being friends and getting along and happily doing our jobs together is nowhere near as newsworthy.

"I think Sarah is fantastic. She is a born leader and she guides the crew and the cast in such a strong but gentle way.

"She and I are sick of this. It's exhausting talking about it, and a real bore."

That's told us.
