Sharon Stone, 67, is wearing sexy lingerie again now that her 3 sons have moved out of her Beverly Hills mansion
Sharon Stone has discovered there are benefits to being an empty nester.
The actress, 67, who made a rare appearance with all three of her sons on the red carpet recently, revealed she is 'back wearing lady underwear' after 25 years of raising kids.
The Basic Instinct star joked she has spent the last few decades living in a 'stinky fraternity house' with adopted sons Roan, 25, Laird, 20, and Quinn, 19, but now that they have all moved out, the Basic Instinct star has taken the opportunity to embrace her femininity again.
Speaking on Late Night with Seth Meyers, she explained: 'I've been wearing boxer shorts. Because you do not wear lady panties when you have so many boys.'
Stone joked that while raising her boys she had morphed into 'a dude, just a dude,' but things have changed that her boys have flown the coop.
'I hope you notice. I feel really feminine again,' she told Meyers. 'I grew my hair back. It's amazing!'
Stone shares her oldest son, Roan, with ex-husband Phil Bronstein, 74. She adopted Laird and Quinn on her own.
The actress, who was promoting her new film, the dark comedy Nobody 2, said she wouldn't have been able to survive as a single mom without the small town values she grew up with.
'I wouldn't be a sober, healthy, working mom who was able to take three adopted kids — which is just different, let's just say — and do it by myself with the help of wonderful nannies if I didn't come from grounded, moral values.'
'And there have been hiccups,' she added.
'My kids were off school during COVID. We all went through this. Our kids are online and then they are confused about their value systems. It's been a complicated period to raise children,' she said.
Referring to the Nobody 2 premiere in Hollywood, Stone continued, sharing, 'And then I see these pictures of them... All of us on the red carpet. I called them all last night, and we were all talking about it. And I just [told] each one of them how proud I was of them because I looked at them as individuals in that picture. Grounded, centered, handsome, organized. I was so proud of them.
'I said to my youngest, I said, "You know what? We did it." And he said, "Mom, we're a family that weathered the storm."'
Stone opened up in 2022 about motherhood in an emotional Instagram comment .
'I hope you notice. I feel really feminine again,' she told Meyers. 'I grew my hair back. It's amazing!' Seen with Basic Instinct costar Michael Douglas in 2009
Stone, who's also been seen in movies such as Sliver , Last Action Hero, and Total Recall, bravely spoke about her own journey to becoming a parent.
'We, as females don't have a forum to discuss the profundity of this loss,' the actress said in a June 2022 comment on Instagram. 'I lost nine children by miscarriage .'
She continued: 'It is no small thing, physically nor emotionally yet we are made to feel it is something to bear alone and secretly with some kind of sense of failure.'
Stone said that 'instead of receiving the much needed compassion and empathy and healing which we so need,' women have been let down by gender discrimination due to a predominantly 'male ideology.'
The outspoken star added, 'Female health and wellness left to the care of the male ideology has become lax at best, ignorant in fact, and violently oppressive in effort.'
Stone, who released her memoir The Beauty of Living Twice in 2021, took to Instagram Stories on Monday with a clip as she left her house for the premiere.
'On our way to NOBODY 2 Premier @nobodymovie,' Stone captioned the clip, which was set to NEU SONG's are you ready?.
Stone stars opposite Christopher Lloyd, Bob Odenkirk, Connie Nielsen, and Colin Hanks in the motion picture from director Timo Tjahjanto.
The storyline focuses on 'suburban dad Hutch Mansell,' played by Odenkirk, according to a logline for the film.
It continued: 'Mansell, a former lethal assassin, is pulled back into his violent past after thwarting a home invasion.'
The action sets 'off a chain of events that unravels secrets about his wife Becca's past and his own.' Nobody 2 arrived in theaters August 15.
