RICHARD EDEN: I can be saucy at any age! Sharon Stone hits back after being criticised for recreating her iconic Basic Instinct scene (32 YEARS after starring in the film!)


The star, 66, has hit back, telling me: 'We get to grow older. It's ridiculous that you're only supposed to be OK when you're 20. What the f***.'

When Sharon Stone reprised her crossed-legs pose from 1992 film Basic Instinct for social media this month, while wearing red lace underwear, she was criticised for being too old for such a saucy post. In her memoir The Beauty of Living Twice, Sharon described how she slapped her director Paul Verhoeven in fury and walked out of a preview of the erotic thriller after discovering his assurances that it wouldn't show up on screen had been a lie and that the audience could — as she put it — 'see all the way to Nebraska'. Sharon claimed the $18 million she had accrued after more than two decades in the film industry evaporated during the years she was unable to work due to brain damage from the stroke.
