"Bad karma bites Sharon Stone
If the Basic Instinct star is so deeply concerned about the Chinese occupation of Tibet, why did she agree to be Dior's emblem in the far east?

It is one of the great truisms of life: that stuff happens and what goes around comes around, and if you cause pain to other people then sure enough there's some bad **** coming your way, buster. I think it was the Dalai Lama who said that.

Let's take a random example. A few years back I attended a Sharon Stone press conference in Cannes that was so anodyne, stage-managed and cynical that it made me want to unplug her microphone and stick my finger in the socket. This year the exact same actor shows up at the exact same festival, sparks an international incident and now finds herself derided as "a dirty swine", the "public enemy of all mankind" and (ouch) an "old lady". Now that's karma for you.

Here, for the record, is what Stone told newshounds last week (we've reposted the YouTube clip above, too, for the one or two people in the world who may not yet have seen it). "I'm not happy about the way the Chinese are treating the Tibetans because I don't think anyone should be unkind to anyone else," she said. "... and then this earthquake and all this stuff happened, and then I thought, is that karma? When you're not nice that the bad things happen to you?" In the wake of this outburst she was unceremoniously dumped by China's largest cinema chain and jettisoned as the face of Christian Dior's Chinese marketing campaign................................"

Blah - I never liked Sharon Stone anyway... I never saw what the big rage was about her.

i was afraid to say that .....

I saw her say that on TV, it seemed so bad

Undid all that 'caring, sharing, deep, sincere celebrity' rubbish they try to put out.

Is she an actress? I think she loves the cast couch. Her movies suck.
