Continued Success and Plastic Surgery Endeavors

In 1993, she starred in the films Sliver and Last Action Hero, followed by Intersection and The Specialist in 1994, for which both films earned her a Razzie Award for Worst Actress. In 1995, she starred alongside Gene Hackman, Russell Crowe and Leonardo DiCaprio in The Quick and the Dead.

Stone’s performance also earned her awards such as a Golden Globe for Best Actress and nominations that include an Oscar and Chicago Film Critics Association Award for Best Actress.

Stone’s seductive years are over now that she’s in her 50s, 56 to be exact. But her photographs in various magazines say otherwise as the Basic Instinct star continues to draw attention for her undying sex appeal. Because many people consider her as someone who still looks really good despite her getting older, Stone inadvertently sparked rumors of plastic surgery.

But Stone vehemently denied these claims, saying she has never had anything done. Although she admitted that there was one point that she was almost talked into having a facelift but instantly changed her mind before it happened as she realized there was really nothing to “lift”. Of her thoughts on plastic surgery, the actress said:

“If you have things that you want to fix, you should go right ahead and fix them. I don’t think there is anything wrong with cosmetic surgery at all. I think it’s great. But I don’t think it’s alright to distort yourself.”
