Sex And The City actor Kristin Davis, known for her role as Charlotte York on the HBO television series, is fulfilling the time-honored tradition of reflecting on previous roles she auditioned for, and on how everything could have been different if she landed this role instead of that one.
As it turns out, Davis was “one of like 8,000 young ladies who read for Monica” on another popular New York-based ensemble series—Friends. Davis was also yoga buddies with Courteney Cox, who would end up landing the part.
“Courteney and I were in the same yoga class at the time, and we used to hang out,” Davis says on The Late Late Show with James Corden. “The rest of us were, like, unemployed actor-waitresses types and we would hang out after class.”
