And thats exactly how Sharon Stones PR will deal with it.
Why bring up Karma at all and I dont hear her saying how terrible it was the 80,000+ have died instead she'd rather name drop the Dalai Lama.

thats it

she is no longer my

pastor

Why, exactly, do we expect Hollywood types to be anything other than complete and utter fuckwits?

Hey, are we forgetting her turn in Police Academy 56?

Genesia said:

and why do we expect people reading about hollywood types to take everything they say out of context simply to be able to bash them?



works both ways.

Don't put the stupidity out there...ain't nuthin' to bash. In context or out.

JustErin said:

Read her hilarious interview with Time about it.

So much for Mensa, the dumb bitch.

Cut her some slack, she's blonde.

ThreadBare said:

yep, karma's a bitch!

sosgemini said:

China's PEOPLE died. Still innocent victims of the government. I'll stick by my stupid cow statement.

Not defending her comment either way but I heard she has a genius level IQ and went to college at the age of 15. Not saying she can't make a dumb or insensitive statement, just saying she ain't a stupid broad.

Stupid is as stupid does.

SCNDLS said:

Not saying she's stupid.

She's nuts.

JustErin said:

Now that's more accurate.

Sharon Stone = Pat Robertson

Xcalibre said:

Now that's a stretch don't ya think?

It trips me out how everyone is so quick to judge/dismiss her based on one public instance of foot in mouth disease. Shit happens, doesn't mean it should suddenly negate the YEARS of exemplary charitable work and good she's done.

It's a good thing that the sum of who each of us are is not measured by ONE off-color remark or we'd ALL be in serious trouble.

SCNDLS said:

Wel thats the truth! However, is there anywhere where she retracts the implications?

SCNDLS said:

Pat Robertson said basically the same thing about 9/11 and Hurricane Katrina.

JasmineFire said:

no, she considered that competition.

Anxiety said:

She didn't say it was Karma, she ASKS if it is Karma, huuuuuge difference!

nothing wrong with her statement, at least from my perspective.

missmad said:

semantics. by asking the question she is saying that it is.

Xcalibre said:

sometimes that is the case, but i truly don't think that is what she meant, a question can sometimes be just that.

Xcalibre said:

see, and i don't think she was....it's obvious to me that she was sharing her own conflicted thoughts on the matter...but thoughts how i took it...others have obviously felt otherwise.

missmad said:

All due respect to you lady but if I loosely imply something rather then call it out that makes me innocent?....or does it make me deceitfully clever?


The idea that some 60,000 suffer as justification for a corrupt government...

Muse2NOPharaoh said:

but thats not what she is saying...she obviously points out her concerns about China first:


that's the precursor to how whatever poem she wrote (at the request of Tibet) came across....she follows that by saying:



She's questioning her initial feelings at this point...and concludes with:



like it or not, people feel this way...if an earthquake had struck Germany during war world 2, dont you think people would have felt conflicted about helping the Germans?

in the end, she decided to help and shared the lesson learned...

why is that so bad?

I'd like to know what we, as Americans, are Karmically paying for.....or shall I say Karmically financing. 'Cause 8 years is a really long time.

SHARON STONE IS FOR THE CHILDREN, PEOPLE. DO NOT HATE.
