Sharon Stone Not Coming to Cannes amFAR — Says She’s “Prepping a Film”

Share

Are Sharon Stone and amFAR on the outs again? Seems like it. Stone Tweeted yesterday

Stone has worked tirelessly for the charity. But they haven’t always treated her so well. A few years ago they really dumped her unceremoniously. I reported it and amFAR banned me too. It’s just as well. The annual Cannes dinner has gone from movie chic to Eurotrash creep, with low level models and odd types showing up to fill out the tent.

And as I reported a few weeks ago, amFAR gave a lot of money in their federal tax return to a company that not only went out of business but also almost bankrupted the city of Port St. Lucie Florida.

Stone was AWOL last year, too, which suggests that the deep rifts between her and the clowns at amFAR are still not healed.
