Sharon Stone Says She Told Michael Douglas To 'Step Outside' In Heated Fight

Michael Douglas and Sharon Stone together in 2009Sharon Stone is telling all about her tumultuous relationship with Michael Douglas, claiming the two had tension even before they became co-stars in Basic Instinct.“Michael Douglas did not want to put his bare ass out on the screen with an unknown,” Sharon said in an interview with Business Insider published last week.“And I understood that. He wouldn’t even test with me. But that was also for a different reason; we had an argument prior to that.” Sharon said the dispute in question began during a Cannes Film Festival, when the two were sitting with a group and Michael “was talking about someone and their kids”. “I really, really knew this person he was talking about. So I said something and he responded to me, saying, ‘What the fuck do you know?’” Sharon recalled, claiming: “It was in regard to a father-child relationship. Clearly, it triggered him.“So, he screams this at me across a whole group of people. And I’m not the person who goes, ‘Oh, excuse me, superstar’. I pushed back my chair and said to him, ‘Let’s step outside’. That’s how we first met.” The two, indeed, took things outside, according to Sharon’s account. She said she “explained to him what the fuck I knew about this family he was speaking about, and that I was best friends with the children and the parent”. Apparently, the two then parted ways “amicably,” but “I wouldn’t say as best friends”. “So, fast forward to casting Basic Instinct, I don’t think he wanted me to be his co-star,” she alleged. Sharon then said their initial encounter worked well for the relationship in the movie, because she “was not rattled if he yelled at me”. “That worked very well in our dynamic,” the Casino star shared. “Eventually, we became the greatest of friends, to this day. I admire him tremendously.”Allen Burry, a representative for Michael Douglas, disputed parts of Sharon’s story when asked for comment.

Reps for Sharon Stone didn’t immediately respond to a HuffPost request for comment.
