Now that I've taken the weekend to recover (and in appreciation of our beloved Canadian icon bringing Samantha back to life again) — here are 17 times Kim Cattrall was super iconic:
To warm us up, let's start with some of Kim's best Samantha Jones moments:
1. When she officially made her debut as Samantha Jones, changing pop culture as know it.
2. When Samantha Jones defended Charlotte’s baby name.
3. When Samantha Jones was perfectly Samantha Jones after getting caught by anti-fur protestors at New York Fashion Week in Sex and the City: The Movie.
4. When Samantha Jone's British altar ego, Annabelle Bronstein, made her first appearance.
5. When Kim showed off her acting chops in the incredibly vulnerable SATC episode where Samantha takes off her wig during a speech at a breast cancer benefit.
6. When Samantha gave women everywhere the mantra:
7. When the world was completely shocked to learn Samantha Jones would be (briefly) returning to And Just Like That…
8. When Samantha Jones was the only one to be styled by Patricia Field, the original SATC costume designer in the rebooted series.

9. While we’re on the topic of Sam's style, when Kim Cattrall was able to pull off literally any outfit on SATC. Like this power suit:
10. Or this 2000s girl band look:
11. When she became a three-time published sex author.
She also released Sexual Intelligence in 2005 as a companion to the documentary special of the same name. In it, Cattrall explores the origins of sexual desire, offering heartfelt and sincere advice to her readers. How very Samantha Jones of her!
12. When she went on an infamous date with Canadian Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau.
Kim, who was 24 at the time and one year away from appearing in the blockbuster film Porky's (the second-highest grossing Canadian film of all time), later revealed she simply called the PM up for a date. And he said yes. That easy!
13. When, because of the date, she was mistaken as the actual First Lady of Canada years later — and had a hilarious response.

14. When she starred in Ice Princess (2005). Yes, this is more iconic than anything above.
15. When she openly negotiated a pay raise before agreeing to participate in Sex and the City: The Movie.
Kim Cattrall’s refusal to participate in the Sex and the City reboots may have disappointed fans of the franchise once or twice but…you can't blame her for getting what she deserves!
16. When she scatted. I could try to explain, but it’s better if you just watch:
