Sharon Stone isn’t letting her age define her.
The « Basic Instinct » actress turns 67 next week, and she told The Sunday Times that she still loves her body.
« A lot of people give up as they get older, » she said in the interview published this week. « They let go of their body because it’s collapsing anyway, or it’s like, ‘I’m not defined by my body any more.’ »
She continued, « But you still have to love that body. I joke that my underarms have pleats now. I think, ‘Well, I had beautiful arms and now they’re strong and painting [she is an artist] and like angel wings. So what if they have pleats? Maybe that’s what makes them wonderful now.’ »

She said that she was once at romance novelist Jackie Collins’ house playing billiards when her sister, « Dynasty » actress Joan Collins, jokingly told her two things to never do after turning 40.
« Joan said: ‘Let me give you a tip. After 40, never get on top and never wave goodbye.’ »

She added, « Joan once described a man to me as a ‘bungalow — everything downstairs, nothing upstairs.’ She’s so funny. »
Stone also revealed that she had it added to her film contracts that she gets to keep all of her clothes from every movie after a studio once decided to sell her underwear from an early film she did.
« After I did a television film in the 1980s, they sold my wardrobe at a discount at the studio to make their money back, and they were selling my underwear, » she told The Times. « I was so embarrassed and uncomfortable that the crew guys were rummaging around in my underpants, I thought ‘never again.’ So I had it put into my contracts that I keep all my clothes from films, unless they are studio rentals. »
She said she keeps her infamous white minidress from « Basic Instinct » in a safe, but she « has a ton of shoes from that movie in my closet, like black split-toe Gucci heels and strappy gold-studded ones. »

The rest of her costumes are in storage, she said.
« The clothes from ‘Casino’’ were magnificent. What an amazing job Rita Ryack, the costume designer, did. I took the Pucci jacket that Ginger dies in. »
She also joked that dressing for the red carpet now makes her feel a little like Mrs. Potato Head.

« It’s like an entire transformation, » she admitted. « I call it the Mrs. Potato Head moment. We put on the face, we put on the dress, and we shove her out of the door. »
