CATTRALL FEARED DATING YOUNGER MAN WOULD MAKE HER SEEM LIKE SEX STAR

SEX AND THE CITY star KIM CATTRALL was so desperate to separate herself from her youth-obsessed character on the hit TV show, she initially turned down her current boyfriend's advances because he was much younger than her.
The 51-year-old actress, who has been dating 29-year-old Canadian chef Alan Wyse since their meeting in 2004, plays maneater Samantha Jones on the hit TV series-turned-movie.
And she admits fears she would become more like her character in real life led her to have second thoughts about pursuing a romance with Wyse.
She explains, "I thought, 'Am I copying Samantha? This is ridiculous. I can't be doing this.'"
But Wyse's persistence paid off. Cattrall adds of her beau, "He just would not take no for an answer and I'm so glad he didn't."
