July 2, 2008: "Candace Bushnell’s Friends Want Her To Quit Smoking"
Unlike her “Sex and the City” character Carrie Bradshaw, Candace is still lighting up - and her friend, Self magazine editor-in-chief Lucy Danziger, isn’t happy about it. Danziger was spotted in the Condé Nast elevators “confiscating Candace’s unopened pack of Merit cigarettes,” according to our spy. Danziger cried, “You have to give this habit up! I quit 12 years ago, and I’ll help you and you can write about it.” Sounds like a plotline for an upcoming “Lipstick Jungle.” *** Writer Candace Bushnell picture(s)/pic, wallpaper and photo gallery. Born: December 1, 1958, Glastonbury, Connecticut, USA. Nickname: Candy. Spouse(s): -Charles Askegard (4 July 2002 - present). --> NEW pictures of Candace Bushnell at the Chanel Fine Jewelry - Night of Diamonds, Plaza Hotel January 16,2008 <-- Candace Bushnell biography (bio): Candace Bushnell is a writer based in New York City. She is best known for writing a sex column that became the basis of the hit TV-series, Sex and the City. Bushnell married New York City ballet artist Charles Askegaard on July 4, 2002. Bushnell was, upon dropping out of Rice University in the late 1970s, known all over New York as a party-goer and socialite. One of her favorite places was the infamous Studio 54. Later on in life, she got a job as a columnist in the New York Observer. In 1994, her editor-in-chief asked her if she wanted to write a column for the paper, and she accepted the job. She wanted a column based on the adventures she and her friends usually spoke about, and she called it Sex and the City. In 1998, HBO started airing a show, Sex and the City, based on, but not exactly like, Bushnell's column. The Sex and the City television show enhanced Bushnell's already growing fame, making her name known to many non-book readers as well. The television series ceased original production in 2004, with the last episode airing on HBO in February 2004. Many other writers have compared the Carrie Bradshaw character on the television show to Bushnell because Carrie, like Bushnell, is also a newspaper sex and lifestyles columnist who enjoys the New York nightlife. She was one of three judges for the 2005 reality television show Wickedly Perfect on CBS. Trivia: Candace's prom date was Mike O'Meara of the nationally syndicated Don and Mike Show. Candace was referenced on the hit show "Ugly Betty" as a writer that has exhausted her medium. |
