Sharon Stone opened her mouth and verbal diarrhea came spewing out. She unleashed her karma based belief that China was getting its just desserts after the earthquake that claimed the lives of over 68,000 people.
She might as well have said that she killed Jesus and liked to kick kittens. In response to Stone’s comments on China “not being very nice” and getting some sort of horrific payback, China has had some boycotts put into effect. Cinemas refuse to show her films and even Dior has pulled her images from their campaigns.
“Due to some customer reaction we have decided to pull her image from all of the department stores and from all of China,” Christian Dior China said in a statement.
“We just want our customers and fans to realize that her personal comments are not related to the company and of course we don’t support any type of commentary that will hurt the feelings of our customers.”
Now that she is finding that karma works both ways. Not even being tight with the Dalai Lama can save her sorry ancient carcass.
“In the course of the interview I made inappropriate remarks and for any harm created towards the Chinese people I am extremely sad and apologize.”
Damage is done crazy bitch. China has accepted her “sorry” but pretty much told her to piss off and the boycott remains. Leave it to her to garner the hate of any entire country.

Sharon Stone likes to air it out, on purpose. She’s done it in movies and in every other opportunity that comes up. The difference this time… she appears to be packing.
She SO did that on purpose!
Some have said she’s nude, and some have said that she’s wearing nude panties. Regardless of what you decide, nude or not, clearly there’s something down there that just aint right.
What others said:
I Don’t Like You That Way says, “oh, I give up. I have no idea what the hell that is. I mean, it’s where female genitalia is supposed to be, but it’s not a good sign when “water balloon” is a good guess. It’s unclear whether that’s testicles or stuff she’s storing for the winter. “
Sharon Stone was pictured at Elton John’s Oscar party, wearing a rats paw on her lapel. When asked about it, she said:
“It’s for luck.”
I remember back when I was in high school, wearing fur was popular, but it was mostly rabbits fur that everyone wore [not that rabbits don't matter]. I haven’t worn fur since high school, I’m 42.
When PETA came along, it then became a matter of being humane and for the love of vegetarian. It’s made me look at fur differently. Yes, rats are gross… but that’s all the more reason, no?
What others said:
Dlisted says, “Somebody perform some sort of ritual on that rat’s paw and bring it back to life. Sharon needs a beat down and that rat paw is the one to do it.”
Sharon certainly loves her fur. What say now, PETA?

**UPDATE [allie]:TMZ is reporting that PETA has already responded:
“Maybe Sharon, passed over by the Academy yet again, was jealous of Ratatouille’s Oscar win and thought a rodent paw might go with her haggard look. Her accessories these days are as dead as her career.”
Some major celebrities are hitting the half century mark in 2008 and AARP Magazine is celebrating them a bit early.
AARP The Magazine’s January/February issue is all about the big 5-Oh. We believe that 2008 is the year that will forever change the image of 50. Look at our cover girl for the January/February issue of AARP The Magazine – Caroline Kennedy! Can you believe she’s 50?!
Actually, I can. Her dad was shot two years before I was born, after all.
You heard it here first: 2008 is the year that will forever change the image of 50. Consider the bumper crop of rock stars and sex symbols who will hit the half-century mark—including Sharon Stone, Madonna, Viggo Mortensen, Ellen DeGeneres, Prince, and Michelle Pfeiffer, just to name a few.
Does that mean 50 is the new 30? Not really. Most of us, at 50 and beyond, are happy with the lines we’ve earned and the lives we’ve led. Still, nobody can deny that being a quinquagenarian today is a whole new ball game. Fifty can mean starting a brand-new career or soaring to new heights in an old one (before Lord of the Rings, few would have recognized the accomplished indie actor Viggo Mortensen). It can mean having young children (Stone has three kids under age seven). Or it can mean the freedom and confidence to do whatever the heck you want—whether it’s to spend time with family, write children’s books, take to the stage in a corset, or, like Madonna, do all three.
So in honor of AARP’s 50th anniversary we hereby proclaim: “50 is the new 50.” And when the birthday party’s over, we guarantee you’ll never think of the Big 5-Oh the same way again.
Some others:
* Ellen DeGeneres (January 26) will be throwing a bash on her popular daytime talk show, Ellen, and including some of her signature original dance moves.
* Sharon Stone (March 10) avoids sticking to a regular exercise plan and loves dark chocolate, but stays youthful and full of life by staying active fighting against HIV/AIDS.
* Michelle Pfeiffer (April 29) came back from her career hiatus to appear in three films last year. The mother of two teenagers also just quit smoking and started using sunscreen to protect herself.
* Prince (June 7) is still a prolific one-man band (high heels and pompadour included) perpetually cranking out CDs. The star also launched a new fragrance recently, 3121.
* Madonna (August 16), mother of three young kids, will release a new CD this year and mulling a “Madonna at 50” tour next summer. “Madonna’s 50th Birthday Countdown Clock” can be downloaded from the web and applied to your computer’s desktop.
* Viggo Mortensen (October 20) just recently became a movie star with his performances in Lord of the Rings and Eastern Promises. The Danish American is also a poet, photographer, painter and fluent in four languages.
Frankly, I can’t believe Mortensen is only 50!
