Hold onto your Dior hats, folks! Sharon Stone, the queen of killer stares and iconic thrills, declared, 'I still make more money today modeling than in film.' Despite dazzling Hollywood in classics like 'Basic Instinct' and earning an Emmy, Stone revealed her shocking financial plot twist: she was paid a mere $500K for Basic Instinct while co-star Michael Douglas pocketed $14 million! After a stroke wiped out $18 million in savings, this star bounced back modeling high fashion like Dior and Dolce & Gabbana. She proudly celebrates being 'one of the oldest women consistently modeling today.' Who needs Oscars when you’ve got runways, right?
