Sharon Stone, 67, reveals she went on precisely one date with rapper Nelly, 50
The 67-year-old actress has been in the spotlight for decades, thanks to her head-turning stints in Basic Instinct, Casino and the Mighty.
In that time, she has walked down the aisle twice – to Michael Greenburg and Phil Bronstein – and been engaged a further two times.
During an appearance on Watch What Happens Live, alongside Nobody 2 co-star Bob Odenkirk, they touched on her love life during a game.
When asked if it was true that she went on a date with Dilemma rapper Nelly, 50, she initially remained tight-lipped.
'I mean … this is crazy enough that I actually might believe it,' host Andy Cohen quipped, while her castmate agreed: 'I'm gonna say yeah.'
She was greeted with gasps from the audience – and Bob – when she eventually replied: 'Yes, I did.'
Questioned over whether she saw him again for a second date, she simply added: 'No, I did not.'
Sharon didn't go into any details about the time she spent with the Hot in Herre musician, or why they didn't reconnect for another meeting.
Despite their failed romance plot, Nelly sent fans into a spin when he reunited with ex Ashanti in 2023, 10 years after they ended their decade-long romance.
The couple secretly tied the knot and went on to welcome son Kareem together last year.
He is also father to children Chanelle and Cornell with ex Channetta Valentine, and adopted his sister's two kids, Shawn and Sydney, after her death in 2005.
Meanwhile, Sharon has been married twice over the years, and kept much of her love life behind closed doors following her divorce from second husband Phil Bronstein in 2004. More Trending
In 2024, she declared that she was ready to find love again and had turned to online dating – but hadn't been fruitful.
Shedding light on her romantic life in an interview with the Times, she insisted: 'I don't look for anything. I've never looked for anything. Because I don't think that's what happens.
'You're standing somewhere, someone walks up and starts talking to you and you turn around and think, 'What?' And the next thing you know, two years have gone by.

'You don't look for a list and then your list arrives. That's what people do who don't have relationships. So that they can comfort themselves with the fact that they don't have a relationship and feel that they're actively making an effort towards that happening in their lives.'

Basic Instinct writer promised 'anti-woke' reboot days before Sharon Stone launched rant at project
The controversial reboot of Sharon Stone 's 1 992 erotic thriller Basic Instinct will be 'anti-woke' as the film's writer seeks to hit back at modern day 'political correctness' Joe Eszterhas, 80, who also penned Flashdance and Showgirls, recently revealed he had been paid $4million by Amazon MGM Studios to pen the new script and hoped Stone would co-star in the film - days before the actress slammed the project. Eszterhas told The Wrap: 'It means that dialogue-wise she will be open about her sexuality, character-wise she will be raunchy at times, funny, iconoclastic and all of those things. 'I can't talk very much about the storyline at this point because much of it isn't formed yet. It begins in 2025. The Catherine Trammel character I will write and I hope Sharon [Stone] agrees to do the picture because I thought she was brilliant the first time out. 'In my reboot she is not the star of the picture but she is the main co-star of the picture. It's about the serial killers. It's about copycats. There's a demonic element to it that I think will be spooky.' He added that a 'segment of the population has had it with woke culture', saying: 'The absurdities come when a woman who is sexual and open about her sexuality, you know, the culture that that I grew up in would describe that woman as a nymphomaniac. If a man did the same thing he would be a stud.' The writer's comments last month came weeks before Stone, 67, lambasted the reboot during a chat on The Today Show this week. She said: 'It goes the way the one that I was in. I would just say, '"Why do you do it?' Go ahead, but good f*****g luck.'' 'I'm at that stage in my life where I already retired once. And I already died a couple times. I'm like, what are you going to do? Kill me again? Go ahead.' Stone reprised her role as femme fatale Catherine Trammel in panned 2006 sequel, Basic Instinct 2. Basic Instinct first hit screens in 1992 and sees Detective Nick (Michael Douglas) investigate the brutal murder of Johnny Boz (Bill Cable). The blockbuster follows the police officer, who points suspicion towards Tramell, the victim's girlfriend. Catherine manages to seduce Nick into falling in love with her. Basic Instinct features a well-known scene where Catherine is being quizzed by police. Amid the bombardment of questions, she distracts them when she uncrosses then recrosses her legs, leaving the men flustered seeing as she was underwear-free at the time. Last year Sharon said that the iconic and controversial interrogation scene now seems 'very ordinary' compared to raunchy present-day films. Appearing at the Taormina Film Festival, Sharon said - per Deadline -that while the scene was considered X-rated at the time, nowadays it would have lost its shock factor. She said:'[at the time] it seemed like a scandal, and now it seems very, very ordinary. 'I think that now that women are writing, directing, producing, filming and more and more a part of filmmaking, films are less about men writing films about their fantasies of the way women are 'And actresses are less asked to portray the male fantasy, and then critics are less asked to tell us if we fulfilled the male fantasy or not. It's more, are we fulfilling the human condition?' She previously told The Guardian the film ruined her image, saying: 'They said I was just like the character, like, somehow, they found someone who was just like that, and she slipped into the clothes, and it was magically recorded on film. 'Then, as it played everywhere on the globe for the next 20 years, people started to go, "Do you think this really has anything to do with the fact that we thought we saw up her skirt?" I think maybe it's actually a pretty good performance." 'So it went from me being nominated for a Golden Globe and people laughing when they called my name in the room to people giving me standing ovations and making me the woman of the year... 'And then I got nothing. I never got any more parts. Why? I really wish you could tell me," she said. "Sometimes I think it was because I was too good.'
