Bushnell at War with 'Sex and the City' Producer
Sex And The City writer Candace Bushnell is reportedly at war with
former best friend Darren Star, after he sold a TV show based on one
of her novels to a TV network without telling her. Star, who produced
the hit TV adaptation of Bushnell's book, was asked by the author to
also turn her novel Lipstick Jungle into another hit television series
and wanted to air the project on network NBC. But when the author's
agents couldn't reach an agreement with Star he created his own
version of the pilot, changed the name to Cashmere Mafia and sold it
to rivals ABC. A source tells gossip column PageSix, "Candace is hurt
and upset by Darren's betrayal. She was shocked. He was one of her
best friends." The pilot episode of the TV adaptation of Lipstick
Jungle stars Brooke Shields.
