The New York premiere of “Sex and the City” took Radio City by storm last night. Not even the scattered showers deterred the die-hard fans and Carrie wanabees. Vibrator.com was there to capture the night in full.

From mid-morning, fans lined up outside of Radio City Music Hall to catch a glimpse of the “Sex” stars and claim their seat for this year’s most sought-after ticket. At one point, the line extended from 50th Street and 6th Avenue to 51st Street and 5th Avenue - an entire city block! Fans were dressed in their best evening attire and the sheer magnitude of the evening felt more like an awards show than a movie premiere. Thousands of Swarovski crystals adorned the pink carpet, and Vibrator.com stickers, t-shirts, and postcards (coincidently of the same color scheme) decorated the lapels and pockets of the masses.

Spokesmodels Desiree and Agathe worked the crowd, spreading a sex-positive message and introducing Vibrator.com to throngs of onlookers already familiar with vibrators like the Rabbit Pearl. While some mothers shielded their daughters’ eyes, many were receptive to Desiree and Agathe and happily accepted the swag. Others couldn’t get enough!

HOT 97 were there to catch Desiree ‘in the act’ with an interview on camera. We’ll be tracking down the footage to post whenever we can get our hands on it.

Cynthia Nixon, Kristin Davis, Kim Cattral, and Sarah Jessica Parker arrived on the pink carpet for photo ops and to greet adoring fans. Celebrities and proud New York residents Donald Trump, Regis Philbin, Ashley Olsen, and Eli Manning all came out for the celebration.

Hundreds of general admission ticketholders were turned away as the 6000 seat Radio City Music Hall became full to capacity.

Two and a half hours later, the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) hosted the premier’s afterparty, where countless A-list celebs gathered to party like they seem to do in Hollywood every other week. The “Sex and the City” series, and now the movie, depict an iconic New York in which an entire generation fantasized about living. While many of us could never afford an apartment like Carrie’s on a freelance writer’s salary, we can at least afford a movie ticket (and maybe some popcorn) when the film opens on Friday.
