"A lot of people give up as they get older," she told the outlet. "They let go of their body because it’s collapsing anyway, or it’s like, 'I’m not defined by my body any more.' But you still have to love that body. I joke that my underarms have pleats now."
Actress Sharon Stone, renowned for her role in "Basic Instinct," recently shared her candid and humorous perspective on aging and body positivity. At 66, she emphasizes the importance of embracing one's body despite its natural changes over time.
In a recent interview, Stone quipped about her body's transformations, saying, "My underarms have pleats now." She elaborated on her outlook, stating, "I had beautiful arms and now they're strong and painting and like angel wings. So what if they have pleats? Maybe that's what makes them wonderful now."
Reflecting on aging gracefully, Stone recounted advice from her late friend, novelist Jackie Collins, who humorously suggested, "After 40, never get on top and never wave goodbye."
Stone's insights encourage self-acceptance and a positive attitude toward aging, inspiring others to appreciate their bodies and the experiences that come with growing older.
