Fan Pays $52,100 To Accompany Davis To Movie Premiere

A Japanese SEX & THE CITY fan has paid $52,100 (#26,050) for two VIP tickets accompanying KRISTIN DAVIS to the New York premiere of the hit TV show's upcoming movie spin-off.

The woman, whose identity is unknown, outbid other wealthy Sex & The City fans to land the prize in the charity auction on website eBay. The $52,100 raised will go to charity Oxfam.

The winning bidder and a friend will have their hair and make-up professionally styled, receive a pair of Jimmy Choo shoes and accompany Davis down the red carpet at the May (08) screening.

Davis recently said, "Oxfam's mission is to alleviate poverty and injustice by helping people learn skills and create lives.

"I just got back from Africa and saw firsthand that we're making a long-term difference. It gives me a sense of satisfaction."

The actress has become the late in a long line of celebrities auctioning off movie premiere 'dates' for Oxfam - Colin Firth offered one last month (Feb08) and one Scarlett Johansson fan recently bid $40,100 (#20,050) to accompany her to a film premiere in 2009.

What a wonderful charity. I have a friend who's in Namibia with the Peace Corps. I fully support any efforts to improve Africa. I trust Kristin will be fully clothed.

Wow, crazy.

It's good that all these celebs are doing thisfor charity though!

wow...that's quite a bit of money to be someone's date. But if I were rich I'd do it to accompany Chester Bennington to pretty much anywhere. Even to the junk yard. LOL

I think this is a great idea! I just wish I had the money to accompany Jake Gyllenhaal if he were to ever auction himself!
