Sharon Stone is opening up about a pitch for a Barbie film she had in the 1990s that didn’t go well with studio executives then.

Zack Sharf Digital News Director Sharon Stone surprised fans in January when she revealed on Instagram that she tried and failed to pitch a “Barbie” movie in the 1990s, decades before Greta Gerwig and Margot Robbie would make their own “Barbie” movie to the tune of $1.4 billion worldwide (the highest-grossing film of 2023) and eight Academy Award nominations. Stone said she got “laughed out of the studio” back then, and she recently dropped some new info about her axed “Barbie” movie while visiting Dana Carvey and David Spade’s “Fly On The Wall” podcast.

Sharon Stone has made a critical comment about Johnny Depp’s artwork in a recent interview.The Basic Instinct star, who switched her focus from acting to art during the COVID lockdown, has just opened her own exhibition in Berlin, and is due to open another in San Francisco in April.In explaining her road to success to The Guardian, she made comments referring to an art collection created by Depp, which sold for more than $3.6million within hours.The collection, titled Friends And Heroes, featured portraits of individuals who inspired the actor: Keith Richards, Bob Dylan, Al Pacino and Elizabeth Taylor.According to Business Insider, Depp sold all 780 pieces within hours of his announcement that the art would be on sale at Castle Fine Art’s 37 gallery in Birmingham, England.Stone however, didn’t seem to be quite so enamoured with the portraits, saying: “Johnny Depp is printing pictures of people, putting some paint over it and signing it, and making a fortune.”Depp followed up the original collection with some more prints in 2023, which featured other famous faces including Bob Marley, Heath Ledger and River Phoenix.Seemingly referring to Depp’s recent sale of his self-portrait, in which he donated $200 from every sale to Mental Health America, Stone shared that she had received similar requests from galleries.“I had galleries approach me and say, ‘Could you please make prints of your face?’ I think it’s my duty not to do that,” she said.

feud with Sharon Stone, the actor was spotted having what appeared to be an intense discussion with his wife, Chynna Phillips.The “Basic Instinct” actress, 66, publicly tussled with Baldwin, 61, after Stone revealed on Louis Theroux’s podcast that producer Robert Evans told her to have sex with Baldwin during filming of their 1993 movie “Sliver” to improve his lousy screen performance.“He called me to his office,” Stone recalled about Evans, who died in 2019 at age 89. “He had these very low ’70s, ’80s couches, so I’m essentially sitting on the floor, when I should have been on set.

Sharon Stone has revealed the identity of a film producer who told her to have sex with her co-star.The Total Recall actor originally shared the story in her 2021 memoir, The Beauty Of Living Twice, but did not include the names of those involved.Now, speaking on Louis Theroux’ podcast, Stone revealed that Robert Evans, the former head of Paramount Pictures, who produced films including Rosemary’s Baby and The Godfather, suggested she should sleep with her 1992’s Sliver co-star William Baldwin, to better Baldwin’s performance.She explained: “[Evans is] running around his office in sunglasses explaining that he slept with Ava Gardner and I should sleep with Billy Baldwin, because [then] his performance would get better.”“If I could sleep with Billy,” she explained, “then we’d have chemistry on screen and save the movie. The real problem was me because I was so uptight, and not like a real actress who could just fuck him and get things back on track.”She added: “The real problem was I was such a tight-ass.”Stone, now 66, criticsed the casting of her Sliver co-star, comparing him to Michael Douglas, with whom she starred in the 1992 movie Basic Instinct.

told her to have sex with Baldwin during filming of their 1993 movie “Sliver” to improve his lousy screen performance.But the ugly fight goes back more than 30 years.During the fraught production of the sexually charged thriller, the pair quickly developed an antipathy for one another.“Thin lips, OK breath,” Baldwin, Alec Baldwin’s brother, reportedly said after shooting a love scene with the “Basic Instinct” star, according to Entertainment Weekly.The hatred was mutual.“He’s a boy,” Stone complained, according to “Sliver” screenwriter Joe Eszterhas in his book “American Rhapsody.” “Give me a man.

Karl Wallinger, the multi-instrumentalist and solo force behind the band World Party and former member of The Waterboys, has died.Wallinger, 66, passed away Sunday, his publicist said. No cause of death was announced.Wallinger had worked as musical director for a production of “The Rocky Horror Show” in London’s West End when he was recruited on keyboards for The Waterboys in 1983, playing synthesizer and singing backup vocals on their most commercially successful song, “The Whole of the Moon.”Waterboys founder Mike Scott called him “one of the finest musicians I’ve ever known” in a post Monday on X, formerly Twitter. “Travel on well my old friend,” he said.Creative differences with Scott led Wallinger to go his own way in 1985 to start World Party, where he created a sound infused with influences of the Beatles, Bob Dylan, Van Morrison and Sly Stone.“It just became obvious that it wasn’t going to go anywhere than where it’s gone,” Wallinger told Penny Black Music in 2022 interview.

pushed her to have sex with the actor while they were filming “Sliver” in 1993.“Not sure why Sharon Stone keep [sic] talking about me all these years later?,” his tirade on X, formerly Twitter, began.“Does she still have a crush on me or is she still hurt after all these years because I shunned her advances?”And then Baldwin, brother of Alec Baldwin, became vaguely threatening.“I have so much dirt on her it would make her head spin but I’ve kept quiet,” he said.“Wonder if I should write a book and tell the many, many disturbing, kinky and unprofessional tales about Sharon?,” Billy, 61, said.

Sharon Stone has finally revealed the pair’s identities. The “Basic Instinct” actress told Louis Theroux on his podcast that the filthy producer was onetime Paramount head honcho Robert Evans and the actor was William “Billy” Baldwin, brother of Alec Baldwin.

snooze-o-rama Oscars, “Oppenheimer” deservedly took home seven trophies: best picture, director (Christopher Nolan), actor (Cillian Murphy), supporting actor (Robert Downey Jr.), cinematography, score and editing.It wasn’t a brutal beatdown. “Poor Things,” starring Emma Stone, snapped three technical awards away from it (as well as a Best Actress honor for Stone), and Cord Jefferson’s “American Fiction” deprived the atom bomb movie of Best Adapted Screenplay.

2024 Oscars were hosted by Jimmy Kimmel on Sunday, March 10, airing on ABC (in the new earlier time slot of 7 p.m.). The Christopher Nolan flick starring Cillian Murphy was this year’s frontrunner, with a staggering 13 nominations — including for Best Picture, Best Director, and Best Actor and Best Supporting Actor for Murphy and Robert Downey Jr., respectively. The Best Actor race was a battle between Murphy, Bradley Cooper (“Maestro”), Paul Giamatti (“The Holdovers”), Colman Domingo (“Rustin”) and Jeffrey Wright (“American Fiction”).Murphy took home the expected win, and Nolan and Downey Jr.

In a very competitive race, Cord Jefferson won his first Academy Award in the Adapted Screenplay category for the dramedy “American Fiction.” Based on the 2001 novel “Erasure“ by Percival Everett, “Fiction” overcame a slew of worthy nominees such as Christopher Nolan‘s screenplay for “Oppenheimer,” Greta Gerwig and Noah Baumbach‘s bizarrely categorized script for “Barbie,” and Tony McNamara’s adaptation of “Poor Things” to take the prize.
