3 Jun – Set in Abu Dhabi, and yet banned in Abu Dhabi. That's what the United Arab Emirates' (UAE) media regulatory body National Media Council (NMC) decided on "Sex And The City 2" recently. The same censorship would also apply to its predecessor "Sex And The City". According to NMC, the film's 'salacious contents' and the word 'sex' in its movie title were already not compliant to its media regulations. The plot thickens when most of the nightlife and sand dune scenes that were shot in Abu Dhabi, were not set in the city itself, but in Morocco! Officials previously had contemplated censoring kissing, sex and bad language from the movie; rumours were also abounding when the movie's title could be changed to "Love And The City". Unfortunately, moviegoers in UAE will not be seeing the ladies from New York anytime soon.
