[ # ] WTF Sharon Stone co-hosting the Nobel Peace Prize concert?
October 10th, 2006 under Sharon Stone

Sharon Stone is going to cohost the Nobel Peace Prize concert in Oslo, Norway, on Dec. 11, and no one deserves it more. This is considered a plum job, previously held by Michael Douglas and Catherine Zeta-Jones, Julianne Moore, Anthony Hopkins, Oprah Winfrey and several other Hollywood stars. Stone, more than most, really deserves this accolade. Her fundraising for amfAR is without peer, as is her devotion to the cause of finding money for AIDS research. Now the Nobel committee just has to find a nice guy to cohost the show with her. And sorry, Mel Gibson is out of the question. This is shaping up to be Stone’s year. Her performance in "Bobby," Emilio Estevez’s film about the day Robert F. Kennedy was assassinated in Los Angeles at the Ambassador Hotel, is going to win her Oscar and Golden Globe nominations. Sharon plays the hotel’s hairdresser, who is also married to hotel manager, played by William H. Macy. In many ways, she is the anchor of the multiple-character drama, and she does her job with unexpected skill. Stone was on her way to accolades like this last year, when she costarred with Bill Murray in Jim Jarmusch’s "Broken Flowers." But her part was a tad too small, and the film — Jarmusch’s best work in years — fell by the wayside. Maybe it was just a warming up, though, for "Bobby" and her role as Miriam. Stone told me the other night that she brought in her own makeup woman — Tricia Sawyer — whose previous jobs for Stone included "Casino" and "Basic Instinct," among others. The result was that Stone — who looks pretty ravishing in real life — plays a character who wears her life on her face. "I’m through with all those other movies," Sharon told me. "Now it’s just movies and parts for me, like this one. There’s nothing else to do." In the meantime, Stone has some other problems. On Friday night at the Robert Kennedy Memorial Dinner, she was accompanied by one of the most obtrusive and least gracious security guards I’ve encountered in some time. The word is that La Stone may have an overly enthusiastic fan out there.

I just hope she wears a better dress.
