Kim Cattrall receives the Ultimate Icon award
Kim Cattrall attended the Cosmopolitan Magazine Ultimate Women of the Year
2008 awards
'Sex and the City' star Kim received the Ultimate Icon award at the event,
which was also attended by former Spice Girl Mel B, British girl band
Sugababes, designer Jo Wood and 'The X Factor' judge Dannii Minogue.
Speaking about her award, Kim says: "I will never, ever get
used to receiving these awards because I always think of an icon as someone
so much more important than I am, and especially some of the women in that
room.
"They're saving people's lives - I mean, I make people laugh, hopefully, and
I entertain them and I love to do that, but I am really inspired by these
men and women who really give up so much of their lives and really change
the world
"I'm so proud to be here tonight, just being in the room with all these
people who I believe are real icons."
The awards - held at London's Banqueting House in Whitehall - honoured
achievements by those deemed Britain's ultimate celebrities as well as
real-life women's achievements.
Britney Spears won Ultimate Comeback Star, while Sugababes were given the
Ultimate Mistresses of Music award and R 'n' B singer Estelle was awarded
the Ultimate Believe In Your Talent prize.
Other winners included Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie, who were crowned the

Alesha Dixon who received the Ultimate Confidence Queen accolade.
