Bless any celebrity that takes on the unenviable task of entertaining the wealthy and powerful at a charity event in an effort to raise money for a good cause. That's what Sharon Stone did at the annual Cannes event for amfAR, the AIDS research organization whose capitalization nobody can quite get right, hosting the four-event auction that nabbed a cool $10 million, with an assist from Madonna.
But Stone's method of scrounging up cash didn't win everyone over.
A scathing Page Six report last week had a spy recounting her jokes about Diddy's budget for crack and all the sob stories she told about herself. "Her whole speech was about her," said P6's source. "What she has done, how her crusade had affected her . . . all with the backdrop of dying kids on the screen behind her. Then, it was [bleep] this, [bleep] that throughout the whole auction. It was vulgar beyond belief … At one point she actually said one of the items from the auction could be hung from 'your [beep] ring.'"
That didn't sit well with Fox 411 gossip Roger Friedman. Which is why he's on the attack today against Page Six's report. CONTINUED »

Sometimes, the truth hurts, y'all.

At the Speak Truth to Power event on Friday night at Chelsea Piers, Bill Clinton stopped for a moment to pose with Bobby co-stars Joshua Jackson, Sharon Stone, Christian Slater, and Martin Sheen, as well as Ethel Skakel Kennedy and Kathleen Kennedy Townsend — before the group played one final round of "Whose Jowel Measures the Longest?" That's Clinton's (and, it turns out, Slater's) second favorite game; the former president's favorite, meanwhile, involves a rulebook that fiercely prohibits "measuring from the taint."

We may not have hard evidence, but we know for sure this is not the first time Cindy Adams has admitted "I forgot what he said" or "I didn't understand what she was talking about" or "I wasn't paying attention to my interview subject."
And while we understand it is probably meant to be funny, it only increases the crazy factor in the mind which is Cindy Adams. Today, Cindy gets distracted by Sharon Stone and her super hot bod.
I forget whatever else she told me because I was staring at her nude perfectly manicured beige-polished toenails and examining her face, which hasn't a blackhead, an enlarged pore or a single hair you'd want to pluck. And the body? Not one nodule of fat. Slimmer than the whippet that went missing.
She goes on to admit that, actually, she would hate Stone had Sharon's sister not gone on and on about how fabu she is. But she doens't remember what the actual celeb said. That one is tough — especially when you're 80. So, in addition to the prescription for anti-crazy pills, we're considering sending Cindy a tape recorder.
NOT ONLY HOT STUFF, BUT A HEART OF GOLD [Cindy Adams, New York Post]
Know what we love more than has-been female stars trying to reclaim their youth? Has-been female stars trying to reclaim their youth by participating in bisexual threeways.
And thus, we bring you Sharon Stone's deleted scenes from the upcoming Basic Instinct 2.
You might also be interested in the email that accompanied this footage that was circulated among a whole heap of bloggers.
A friend of mine in Italy got a hold of all the NC-17 deleted scenes from Basic Instinct 2, the stuff they
were forced to cut to get an R rating in the USA, and has started posting online. The first clip up is a bisexual threesome scene with Sharon Stone trying to still look hot at her age… dancing around, exposing her breasts, which look pretty damn good I must say. Must be nice to have lots of $ for surgery. The scene's a little on the Zalman King cheesy side, but still, I hear Stone turns 48 this week on Friday, which is almost my Mom's age, so she looks pretty amazingly hot considering, in a skanky, Hollywood-hasbeen drunk MILF kind of way. She must be
insane. Anyway… FYI. More to come in the next few days, assuming he doesnt get shut down soon, including
unintentionally hilarious orgy, rough sex and nasty sex talk scenes.. all cut from theatre version.
In the end, we're just hoping it came from a blog-smart PR firm that knows an anonymous email account with a rambling "my friends says" explanation goes much further than something you'll fine on PRWeb.
• The actor you refer to as "that guy locked up in the basement" on Desperate Housewives will hereto be known as "the guy that exposed himself on the set of Desperate Housewives — and no, not Joey Buttafuoco." And yeah, he (Page Kennedy) has been fired. [AP]
• Anna Wintour isn't taking The Devil Wears Prada movie sitting down — at least not in an ergonomically correct throne. She's warning fashionistas and actors that any involvement in the Meryl Streep movie will make them invisible in the eyes of Vogue. Unless they're fat, and in that case they should've given up hope long ago. [Radar]
• Britney Spears saw a copyright infringement lawsuit against her dropped, after the songwriter accusing the poptart couldn't prove her "Sometimes" track copied one of his tunes — which, we're told, is often necessary in a copyright infringement suit. [AP]
• The Apprentice edits footage to make contestants look stupid? The audacity! [Lowdown]
• Lindsay Lohan is reportedly eager to marry Jared Leto for the most romantic of reasons: to piss off Paris Hilton and beat her to the aisle first. [The Scoop]
• Following in the great footsteps of couch jumper extraordinaire Tom Cruise, Marc Anthony has re-hired his brother to manage his career. Brilliant move, Marc! [Page Six]
• So this is why Michael Jackson couldn't get anyone to croon on his hurricane charity single: Celebs were already belting out Sharon Stone's self-penned ditty. [AP]
• If playing the bongos nekkid and showing your six pack abs every chance you get are the qualifications, then the rumors are true: Matthew McConaughey is People's "Sexiest Man Alive" pick this year. [Page Six]
• Lindsay Lohan is continuing her Jared Leto fetish, pushing to the front of Hammerstein Ballroom to catch his band 30 Seconds to Mars before joining him at the Table 50 after party.
• After Tom Cruise dropped longtime publicist Pat Kingsley in favor of his sister Lee Ann DeVette, she's finally getting her revenge. She's been enlisted by none other than Brooke Shields, Cruise's pharmaceutical foe, to do some repping.
• Condi Rice isn't doing much to fend off those lesbo rumors, hitting the U.S. Open with Monica Seles as part of her three-day vacation.
• Victoria "Posh Spice" Beckham is playing damage control over her never-read-a-book comments. In fact, she has read books but she "never seem[s] to get the time to finish" because she's a mommy with three small boys. Oh, and David Beckham to handle.
• Vivica A. Fox vowed to beat ABC's Jimmy Kimmel with a shoe over his nasty comments about The View's favorite Bridezilla, Star Jones Reynolds. But that's unfair fight from the start, since Ms. Jones Reynolds just happens to be Payless Shoes' talking head.
• NBC prez Jeff Zucker is on clean up duty after Dateline and the Today show royally screwed George Clooney, pulling the actor in favor of Eva Longoria. Right away, Diane Sawyer plucked him up for Good Morning America, leaving Zucker red-faced and begging for a plea deal.
• Sharon Stone got stabbed by producers of the Lana Turner biopic, supposedly choosing the 12-years-younger Catherine Zeta-Jones for the part — though Scarlett Johnansson is still on the radar.
