Actress Sarah Jessica Parker (C) is held back by co-star Cynthia Nixon (L) as she hits actor Chris Noth with a wedding bouquet as they film a scene on the set of

“Sex and the City” fans and entertainment bloggers such as Perez Hilton are peeved that the premiere of the much-anticipated flick, based on HBO’s hit television comedy about single women in New York, is going to be in London — two whole weeks before the New York debut on May 30.

The film’s producers downplayed the decision after coming under fire from New Yorkers.

London will be much smaller,” a New Line Cinema spokesman told New York’s Daily News. “The whole cast isn’t even going.”

“It was simply a question of logistics and scheduling. We’re still planning the big premiere to be in New York,” he said.

Do you think New York “Sex and the City” fans have a right to feel snubbed?

Hell yes New Yorkers have a right to feel snubbed. Why should the 5th girlfriend of SATC, NYC, get a fashion-hand-me-down-movie? The other four women get couture and the 5th gets consignment? Jojo, even you have to admit that’s just wrong!

Get over it you septic tank. I’d rather not have that lot disturbing me in London.

Has no one ever noticed that SJP is grotesquely ugly? That ‘Lovely’ perfume campaign was horrible to watch. Made me wince every time the advert came on TV.

Why should New York fans feel any more snubbed than the fans all over the world that do not have the premiere in their home town?
