None of the four stars were able to make the trip, much to the disappointment of fans.

Norika, looking non-too-shabby as usual.

The stylist? I'm not sure I'd ask her for grooming tips, unless I wanted to look like Sylvester Stallone's mum.

Mmm, Bette Davis...knees.

Daughter and Mother?

LOL. The Stylist???? None of the main stars. The Stylist! London got all four of the main women. Ditto for New York. And Japan gets The Stylist.

you said it eresay!

only 10 years age difference between them. wonder how the stylist will look in another 10 years.

One could also ask how Norika will look when she is in her 60's...

0 ( +0 / -0 )

Yeah, the one on the left.

The age difference is more like 25+ years

Chances are they didn't want to cringe at the way their lines were translated into Japanese.

From the movie:

Samantha Jones: Hey dick-wad, I'm speaking.

Japanese translation: gomene

Talk about a slap in the face to the fans... The Stylist? who gives a rats about the stylist??

RomeoRamenll - was that an actual quote/subtitle combination from the movie? Not out yet here in Japan so haven't managed to see it.

That's what you get for your all-round bizarre behaviour in your bizarre location. Strange and inconvenient for the rest of the world.

Man, I was hoping they'd at least send "Tall Man 2"

Pathetic. Norika blows them all away,whenever i start to miss home I pop in sex in the city and living in japan dont seem so bad.

Talk about sending the B team.

Norika is hot

No, age-wise, they could be mother and daughter. The stylist has worked in the industry for 42 years, which is about 5 years longer than Fujiwara has been alive.

Lifeissweet is right. Field was born in 1961, which makes her 47. Norika was born in 1971, which makes her 37.

0 ( +0 / -0 )

Field Opened her Greenwich Village boutique in 1966. So you are trying to say that she opened her first shop when she was 5??? She is probably between the age of 60-65.

Sex and that woman on the right DO NOT MATCH!

Japan could not even con "Big" to show up? Always liked Chris Noth in "Law & Order".

RR

why would righty do that to herself?

0 ( +0 / -0 )

I think to be fair, you should be comparing her to an average 60-65yr old Japanese woman.

They do realize, don't they, that they have lost about 30% of their potential audience by not sending the stars. Great loss of buzz. It may be hard to imagine, the SSC is not that well known here in Japan, even in Tokyo. Only one season of the show aired on CS TV, which you don't get without a subscription. Anyway, I only watched 3 shows and couldn't get into it. As an asside, Field doesn't look very 41, and not in the good way, and Horiko does not look very 31, but in a good way.

0 ( +0 / -0 )

Now, this is a real mystery - Fields was born in 1961, yet she opened her first shop in Greenwich Village in 1966! I think it's one or the other!

Re the stars not coming for the opening: Actually all four were scheduled to be in Japan for the original premiere which was supposed to be October. However, the opening date was pushed up to August and their schedules could not be adjusted.

Sex symbol Norika san does not suit standaing with old lady.

0 ( +0 / -0 )

How can anyone looking at the woman on the right think that there is any possibility she is 47?!! She is at least 60 if she is a day. And comparing Norika and a much older woman is ridiculous- does anyone here find Tetsuko Kuroyanagi hot?

0 ( +0 / -0 )

I mean, motytrah is right...talk about sending in the "B" team. Of the two ladies above, one should NOT be dressed in a pink miniskirt. Guess which one.

0 ( +0 / -0 )

Ha,ha ! This picture should really be titled, "A Japanese female partner or a western female partner, the choice is yours but the answer is obvious".

0 ( +0 / -0 )

According to biography base.com, Fields was born in 1961. Hard to believe...

Personally, I like Ms.Field's flaming red hair! I'd like to see Norika with flaming red hair! Woo hoo!

0 ( +0 / -0 )

Women that age should never wear their skirt length above the knee (or showing the knee for that matter). For the love of Pete, please cover yourself woman and learn some self-respect!!!

0 ( +0 / -0 )

I also can't understand why someone would wear a belt when there is no waistline. Anyway, it disgusts me this show is so popular here and every where else it seems.

0 ( +0 / -0 )

wonder if she has staffers telling her she still looks 30 beat!

Obviously a lot of the posters today are not big Sex in the City fans or they'd know a bit more about Patricia Field. She's well into her 60's and opened her first boutique in 1966. She is well famous for her flamboyant outfits and eccentricity. She's also the unseen star of Sex in the City since the outfits she had the women in, especially Carrie, garnered nearly as much talk among fans as the men they dated and the things they did and said. As for this specific outfit, it may not be the most flattering but I give Ms. Field credit for looking as good as she does at her age and for defying the "you're over 50 now so you'd best dress in ugly, dull, gray, yellow and brown clothing done up in synthetic fabrics and unflattering cuts which clearly tell the world you are no longer interested in looking in the least bit like a sexual person" attitude which as so ubiquitous in Japan. Japansese women may maintain their figures but to me that doesn't make them look any younger or even better than their western counterparts when they seem to purposely make themselves devoid of any sexuality. Ms. Field looks like she loves life and could give a lot of grown women here a run for their money!

Norika has no breasts...sorry

0 ( +0 / -0 )

so... is she promoting the movie? sorry, but this cannot be "the picture of the day", its second class PR

0 ( +0 / -0 )

well, then she lies about her age to biographers

0 ( +0 / -0 )

northlondon- no it shouldn't be titled that. An actress in her 30s and a behind-the-scenes person in her 60s- apples and oranges. I don't know why anyone even bothers comparing the two. It's like having Johnny Depp standing next to Prime Minister Fukuda and me saying "See! American guys are much better looking than Japanese guys!"

Or for that matter, standing Odagiri Joe next to the former Aussie PM John Howard and then saying "Japanese guys are much better looking than Australian guys!"

For me the only sexy aussies are those who came from the middle east. Otherwise - yada!
