The “Basic Instinct” star broke down in tears as she accepted the Courage Award during the Women’s Cancer Research Fund’s (WCRF) fundraiser Thursday and said it took “courage” for her to donate given the bank’s failure.

That is so sad.
It would have been so much better if she lost everything she had.

Nope, FDIC, Treasury, and the Fed agreed to guarantee noninsured deposits.

Maybe she was a conservative depositor?
