In an interview with “Entertainment Tonight” at the Gala, Burrow revealed the detail when speaking about the event and the buildup to it.
“I got my friend Justin here, we went to college together so it’s always a great time when I get to see him,” Burrow reported. “It’s always a fun day to just sit around, we watched some ‘Sex and the City’ and just hung out a little bit.”
The popular television series, which premiered in the United States in 1998 and ran for six seasons and 94 episodes, follows the lives, careers and relationships of four women in New York City. A movie that follows up on the storylines of the television series was released in 2008, with a sequel in 2010.
Asked which character he related to most, Burrow declined to answer.
“That might not be a question for me. That might be a question for somebody else that knows me.”
