Stone Offers Kisses for Mideast Peace
1 hour, 17 minutes ago
TEL AVIV, Israel - Sharon Stone is ready to do her part for Mideast peace: The "Basic Instinct" actress said Wednesday she "would kiss just about anybody" to end the Israel-Arab conflict.
She arrived in Israel on Tuesday for a five-day trip sponsored by the Peres Center for Peace, founded by Nobel Peace laureate Shimon Peres in 1996 to improve relations with Arabs. It's her first visit to the Holy Land.
Stone, joined by Peres at a news conference, said she couldn't solve the ongoing conflict between Israel and the Palestinians, but could use her fame to help encourage peace efforts.
"I would kiss just about anybody for peace in the Middle East," she said, drawing laughter from a throng of Israeli reporters. Stone playfully turned down calls to give Peres a peck on the cheek.
Noting it was International Women's Day, Stone suggested that more women become involved in the male-dominated world of Mideast peace talks. Women consider thoughts and feelings more than men, she said.
"I think (men and women) need to be a team. We were meant to be a team," she said.
During her visit, Stone planned to play soccer with a mixed group of Israeli and Palestinian children, visit Israeli hospitals that care for Palestinian children and celebrate her 48th birthday Friday with a gala to raise funds for children's educational and health projects.
Stone was nominated for an Oscar for her role in 1995's "Casino."
Her upcoming film, "Basic Instinct 2," is due for release March 31.
More proof that Ayn Rand's caricatures of the inane weren't really caricatures.
Save your time, Sharon. Your "part" is on film, and everybody's seen it.
I don't know ANYONE that likes working with Sharon Stone.
In fact, most people I know who have worked with Sharon Stone have promised they will never work with her again...
Another movie no one will watch.
I often consider the thoughts and feelings of men who have the power to blow my brains out..................
You are indeed someone who has the proper grasp on these matters! IMHO
I think she was just waiting until it was 1000% sure that Yassar Arafat was dead before she made this peace proposal.
ROFL ping!
Another celebrity bubblehead who knows about as much of the conflict as pond scum knows about jet engines!
imo
She was a cutie in "Above The Law"....
She didn't specify breathing.<<<
I take it I'm not the only one who thought of Arafat. Now there's something that would fry the ick-o-meter.
Another empty-headed, mindless, druggie, hollyweird skank. This crap is news?
She's from right up the road here in PA............. I'll kiss her.
Better gargle with Lysol. You don't know *where* that mouth's been...
I heard there's a Basic Instict II on the way. Maybe she's shillin' a little early.
Don't Muslims behead whores ?
Well, she has just confirmed the stereotype in the Middle East that all Western women are sluts.
Just a "Sob Visit" to Gaza.
