Sharon Stone's rare red carpet appearance with all three of her sons

Sharon Stone's rare red carpet appearance with all three of her sons

Sharon Stone is a proud boy mum.
The actress, 67, was joined by her three sons, Roan, 25, Laird, 20, and Quinn, 19, for a rare red carpet appearance at Monday's premiere of her new film, Nobody 2, in Los Angeles.
Stone wore a navy dress, glasses and a gold bangle bracelet as she posed for pictures with her boys, who all wore suits.
Roan had on a pink suit, Laird opted for a grey suit, and Quinn went with a navy pinstripe suit.
Along with her kids, Stone took photos with her co-stars Bob Odenkirk and Christopher Lloyd.
The action thriller, also starring Connie Nielson, RZA, Colin Hanks, Michael Ironside and John Ortiz, is a sequel to 2021's Nobody, which follows a family man (Odenkirk) who returns to his former life as an assassin.
Stone adopted her oldest son with her ex-husband, Phil Bronstein, in 2000. After the pair divorced in 2004, she adopted Laird in 2005 and Quinn in 2006.
The Oscar nominee and Bronstein initially shared custody of Roan, but Roan ended up primarily living with his dad in San Francisco during the school year. Stone tried, and failed, to challenge the agreement.
'It broke my heart,' she said on the Table for Two with Bruce Bozzi podcast in 2023 about losing custody of Roan. 'I ended up in the Mayo Clinic with extra heartbeats in the upper and lower chambers of my heart.'
Stone alleged that her role in the erotic thriller Basic Instinct affected her custody of Roan.
'When the judge asked my child – my tiny little boy, 'Do you know your mother makes sex movies?' This kind of abuse by the system, that it was considered what kind of parent I was because I made that movie,' she said.
'People are walking around with no clothes on at all on regular TV now and you saw maybe like a sixteenth of a second of possible nudity of me – and I lost custody of my child,' Stone added.
Stone, who has been a single mum since her divorce, has maintained a close bond with her boys.
In May, Stone shared a throwback photo of her sons swimming in the pool to celebrate Mother's Day.
'They boys, now young men, have made my Mother's Day EVERYTHING,' she wrote.
Nobody 2 is in cinemas this Thursday.

South Korea's Supreme Court dismisses Baby Shark plagiarism court case

South Korea's Supreme Court has rejected a US composer's allegation that the children's song Baby Shark had plagiarised his work, ending a six-year legal battle. The top court upheld lower court rulings dating back to 2021 and 2023 that found no sufficient grounds to conclude the South Korean kids content company, Pinkfong, infringed on American composer Jonathan Wright's copyright. The 30 million won ($33,124) damages' claim was based on a battle over the catchy "doo doo doo doo doo doo" hook. Wright, also known as Johnny Only, released his version in 2011, four years before Pinkfong's. But both were based on a traditional melody popular for years at children's summer camps in the United States. The courts ruled Wright's version did not differ enough from the original melody to qualify as an original creative work eligible for copyright protection, and that Pinkfong's song had clear differences from Wright's. The Supreme Court said its ruling reaffirms the established legal principle on existing folk tunes as derivative work. "The Supreme Court accepts the lower court's finding that the plaintiff's song did not involve substantial modifications to the folk tune related to the case to the extent that it could be regarded, by common social standards, as a separate work," it said in a statement. Pinkfong told The Associated Press that the ruling confirmed its version of Baby Shark was based on a "traditional singalong chant" that was in the public domain. The company said it gave the tune a fresh twist by adding "an upbeat rhythm and catchy melody, turning it into the pop culture icon it is today." Chong Kyong-sok, Wright's South Korean lawyer, said he had not yet received the full version of the court's ruling, but called the outcome "a little disappointing." "Anyway, the matter is now settled," he said. Pinkfong's Baby Shark became a global phenomenon after it was released on YouTube in 2015. The original Baby Shark Dance video has exceeded 16 billion views and peaked at No. 32 on the Billboard Hot 100. Baby Shark remains a crucial product for Pinkfong, which earned 45.1 billion won ($49.79 billion) in revenue in the first half of 2025, according to its regulatory filing. The company has turned the five-member shark family — Baby Shark, Mama Shark, Papa Shark, Grandma Shark, and Grandpa Shark — into TV and Netflix shows, movies, smartphone apps and globally touring musicals.

Why Sarah Jessica Parker was forced to confront Sex and the City co-star Kristin Davis

On the latest episode of her Are you a Charlotte? podcast, Kristin Davis claimed that Sarah Jessica Parker confronted her about her body image issues when they were filming Sex and the City. 'There were times when Sarah Jessica would be like, 'You have body dysmorphia,'' Davis, 60, told guest Benito Skinner, reports the New York Post. 'I'd be like, 'I don't think I do,' because the world is literally telling me daily that I am pear-shaped,' Davis continued. 'So much to the point where you can't think straight'. The And Just Like That star added that the talk about her body at the time led to her having 'disordered eating'. 'You're starving yourself. I remember fainting in a parking lot one time, because I was on some crazy diet,' she recalled. Davis also explained how her interactions with fans further complicated her body image struggles. 'There was a good number of years when we were on the old school, in your televisions, HBO proper, and when people would see me on the street here or in New York, they would say, 'Oh, but you're not fat,' ' Davis said. 'I know they didn't mean anything bad. They mean it as a compliment,' she told Skinner. 'But it's because I'm standing next to Sarah Jessica.' Davis and Parker, 60, starred on Sex and the City with Cynthia Nixon and Kim Cattrall from 1998 to 2004. The stars, except Cattrall, returned for the sequel series And Just Like That which is ending on Thursday after three seasons. Before SATC, Davis played Brooke Armstrong on Melrose Place and similarly dealt with body image issues during that time. In February, Davis revealed that she was told not to gain weight when she was on the Fox soap opera. 'There was a general vibe on the set though, that was difficult, about the thinness situation,' she told the US magazine People, adding, 'Every single person was gorgeous and super skinny. So I was like, 'This is what I have to do.' ' Davis said that she hired a running coach and did back-to-back 90-minute spin classes to look a certain way. 'I was frustrated. I was trying to do the thing,' she shared. 'Of course, I'm sure I wasn't eating, I have no idea. I don't remember the eating part.'
