Hours after Sex And The City star, Chris Noth was accused of sexually assaulting two women, former Law & Order guest actress Zoe Lister-Jones has also gone public with her own account of alleged sexual misconduct against the SATC star. Sharing her experience on Instagram, Zoe accused Chris Noth of being ‘sexually inappropriate’. The writer, director and actress wrote; “Last week, my friend asked me how I felt about Mr. Big’s death on ‘And Just Like That,’ and I said, honestly, I felt relieved.“He asked why and I told him it was because I couldn’t separate the actor from the man, and the man is a sexual predator. My friend was alarmed at my word choice. And to be honest so was I. I hadn’t thought of this man for so many years, and yet there was a virility to my language that came from somewhere deep and buried.“Part of being a woman in this world is taking a certain amount of pride in knowing how to handle yourself in these situations,” it continued, in part. “In denying their impact as a means of survival. And burying the feelings that come with the transgressions that we have been taught are simply to be expected.” Zoe added; “In my twenties I worked at a club in NY that Chris Noth owned and on the few occasions he would show up, he was consistently sexually inappropriate with a fellow female promoter“That same year I was a guest star on ‘Law and Order’ and it was his first episode returning as a detective after ‘SATC'. “He was drunk on set. During my interrogation scene he had a 22 oz. of beer under the table that he would drink in between takes. In one take he got close to me, sniffed my neck, and whispered, ‘You smell good.’ I didn’t say anything. My friend at the club never said anything. It’s so rare that we do.“My experiences are small in comparison to the accounts of assault that have so bravely been shared today.“Navigating predation at any level is a burden all women have to bear. And for the most part there is no accountability, and no consequence. Chris Noth capitalized on the fantasy that women believed Mr. Big represented.“F–k Mr. Big”
67-year-old Chris Noth who played Mr. Big in Sex And The City movie, was killed off in the first episode of the “SATC” follow-up “And Just Like That". The Hollywood Reporter had reported that he allegedly preyed on two women in 2004 and 2015 after luring them to private areas. Noth has “categorically” denied the allegations to the publication. Brooklyn native Lister-Jones guest-starred on “Law & Order: Criminal Intent” in 2005, the first year Noth returned to the series, in an episode called “Diamond Dogs.” Noth co-owns The Cutting Room in Manhattan and was an investor in The Plumm, along with Damon Dash, supermodel Petra Nemcova, nightlife mogul Noel Ashman and ex-New Kid on the Block Joey McIntyre which closed in 2009.The post
