Sharon Stone emerged as an iconic sex symbol during the vibrant era of the 1990s. However, her celebrity status came at a high cost.
The actress-producer felt extremely stressed about her weight gain during her twenties; she reportedly ‘wanted to die’ due to the unwanted attention that her curvaceous figure attracted.
The star-making role, coupled with the infamous leg-crossing scene, generated significant controversy and only heightened her allure.
Stone’s confident and assertive on-screen presence, coupled with her striking beauty and charisma, contributed to her widespread appeal and cemented her status as a sex symbol during that era.
