Sharon Stone narrates how she lost custody of her child for acting sex role
Sharon Stone, the ace American actress, has opened up on how she lost custody of her four-year-old child in 2004 for taking up a sex role in a movie.
The film star, during a chat with Bruce Bozzi on the ‘Table for Two’ podcast, said her role in ‘Basic Instinct’, the 1992 movie, gave a negative perception of her.
She recalled how a judge had asked her son if he was aware of her nudity roles in movies.
Taking a dig at the US judicial system, the movie producer said she felt hurt by the prejudice she had received.
“When the judge asked my tiny-little boy, ‘Do you know your mother makes sex movies?’ Like this kind of abuse by the system. That I was considered what kind of parent I was,” she said.
“Because I made that movie? Maybe like a 16th of a second of a possible nudity of me. And now I lost custody of my child.
“People are walking around with no clothes on at all on regular TV networks.”
The movie star also revealed that losing her child to her husband got her hospitalised with a heart-related issue.
“I ended up in the Mayo clinic with extra heartbeats in the upper and lower chamber of my heart,” she added.
“When you say broke my heart? It broke my heart. It literally broke my heart.”
Stone and Ron Bronstein, her husband, adopted Roan as their child in 2000.
But after the couple parted ways in 2004, the judge awarded the child’s custody to her ex-husband.
In ‘Basic Instinct’, Sharon Stone played the role of Catherine Tramell, a crime novelist, who became a suspect in a crime. During investigations, she seduced the prosecutor into an intense relationship.

Police arrests actor Orpheus Pledger for assault — after 3-day manhunt
Orpheus Pledger, the Australian actor best known for his role on the popular soap opera ‘Home and Away’, has been arrested by the police after a three-day manhunt.
Pledger was wanted on assault charges stemming from an alleged attack on a woman.
The incident, captured in now-viral CCTV footage, purportedly shows Pledger dragging the woman to the ground and stomping on her head.
The actor appeared in Melbourne magistrates’ court on Monday and was charged with four counts of assault.
He was first arrested on March 25 and was held in pre-trial detention.
The movie star was granted the right to undergo an assessment at the hospital after Matthew MaCuspie, his lawyer, argued that his client’s mental health was at risk if he remained detained behind bars.
He was due in court on Tuesday for a mental health evaluation but failed to show up.
Justin Foster, the magistrate, expressed frustration at attempts to accommodate Pledger’s mental health needs.
“I will never make an order like that again … (I) bent over backwards to try and offer someone mental health treatment as they require,” the magistrate said.
Authorities issued a warrant for his arrest, leading to a manhunt that concluded on Thursday afternoon.
Details of Pledger’s arrest have not been disclosed by the police.
The actor is now required to appear in court on May 10.
Pledger’s assault case is not his first brush with the law.
In 2021, he was arrested on drug charges and received a good behaviour order.
Pledger played the character Mason Morgan on ‘Home and Away’ from 2016 to 2019.
He also briefly appeared on season three of SAS Australia before voluntarily withdrawing due to ‘erratic behaviour’.

I’ve been in love with girls my whole life, says Billie Eilish on sexuality
Billie Eilish, the US singer and songwriter, has opened up about her sexuality.
In a recent interview with Rolling Stone, the 22-year-old revealed that she has had a lifelong attraction to women. She also said she is ready to fully embrace it.
“I have been in love with girls for my whole life, but I just did not understand — until, last year, I realised I wanted my face in a vagina,” she said.
Eilish said it took her time to accept this aspect of herself and criticised the pressure from the internet to disclose one’s sexuality.
She added that it is important to allow individuals to define their identity at their own pace.
“I was never planning on talking about my sexuality ever, in a million years,” she added.
“I have known people that do not know their sexuality, or feel comfortable with it, until they are in their forties, fifties, sixties. It takes a while to find yourself, and I think it is really unfair, the way that the internet bullies you into talking about who you are and what you are.”
