Sharon Stone - I Got NO Freebies From Designers After Basic Instinct

Saying she had to pay for her own designer gowns at awards shows - instead of getting freebies from designers

"I made not enough money to buy my dress to go to the Oscars the next year. I was in this weird limbo where I was suddenly famous but didn’t have any money.”

So sad.

Is that why she wore that hideous GAP men shirt?

OP - well then she had a bad PR or management team.

I'm calling bullshit on this. She and The Truth aren't very close friends.

Well maybe you should have worn underwear.

She should have called Loretta and asked to borrow. You just know she still had it.

Hmm she had a ton of buzz after Basic Instinct. Find it hard to believe that not a single designer would lend her a dress.

I call bullshit. Vera Wang was one of her best friends.

This is such fucking bullshit. She was notorious for “borrowing” dresses - and jewelry - without actually returning them.

So let's parse this a bit - she said she got no freebies. Ok - that doesn't mean she wasn't LOANED dresses, it's that she wasn't allowed to keep them.

Isn't that sort of how things work? Did she expect free expensive dresses to be hers afterwards? It's not like you're allowed to wear the same dress over and over and over again.

And she received plenty of freebies in gift bags and in other compensation. So, she's at best stretching the truth -

Tough! Actors are overpaid. Buy your own dress bitch!

She wore GAP to the Oscars twice. Once with the black turtleneck in 1996 when she was nominated for Best Actress. And then again in 1998 when she wore this white GAP men’s buttondown shirt with a purple Vera Wang skirt.

R15 that is her husband's shirt, as she just got married and wanted to announce to the whole world she got married - so what better way than to wear her husband's dress shirt.

Boo hoo.

Anyway, I thought her GAP looks were great. If you have a great body and some panache, you can pull off a lot.

Like Jane Birkin and her wicker baskets.

Not the whole story. As she became miss freebie in her decades as a charity benefit queen hostess.

She says when things went crazy for her after "Basic Instinct" was a smash, Miss Dunaway told her:

"Don't do what I did", and I am, like, "What did you do?", and she's, like, "I got got high and ran off with a rock star to London."

She also has kind words for Shirley MacLaine, who kept her grounded by serving dinner on the floor.

R13, true. I worked in PR back when Sharon was a big deal and designers were throwing clothes at even B-list celebrities to wear to major events. These were all loaners, and many times I had to beg clients over and over again to return them to the designers, and after many months, I'd get them back crammed in fedex boxes, wrinkled, dirty, torn and worn out. Sharon may not have bought the clothes, but she did benefit from loaners.

R24, that sounds horrible. I'd be so disgusted. People can be so ungrateful and disrespectful.

She's insufferable. A friend of a friend did some work on Phil Bronstein's (ex-husband's) SF Bay Area house. Overheard a voice mail from Sharon, ranting about child custody. (They adopted a son together.)

So Stunning and Brave of her to Speak Her Truth!

Her Truth also includes being in Mensa - which they have denied many times.

I guess no graphic designer gab her freebies for that memoir either - the key art for the cover is Tacky AF.

Why has she been complaining so much lately? Recently it was about how she didn't know her flaps would show on cam.

by Anonymousreply 31May 29, 2021 10:02 PM

Sharon lies. It's probably the reason that she is an actress even though many question her ability and talent. I remember Rosie O'Donnell had a great take on Stone's vagina scene as Stone professed to never knowing that it happened. Basically, Rosie did a "Come on, Sharon! The cameras, lighting, and direction, and you want us to believe that you didn't know?"

Sharon Stone will do anything to keep her name in the papers and have people talking about her. She lies. She makes things up. She creates her own truth.

Honey, you were more famous in that movie for what you were not wearing for than for what you were. Who were you expecting a gift basket from, Victoria’s Secret?
