Sharon Stone Says Her Comments About China Were Because Of Miscarriages

Obviously any kind of publicity is better than no publicity in the world of Sharon Stone. I can see no other reason why she would choose to dredge up her comments about China from earlier in the year and all the negative publicity she received after her statement.

When China suffered an earthquake earlier this year and all those children died, Sharon suggested it was karma for the way they treated Tibet. She says now though that the reason she made those comments was because she was in "crazyville." In an interview with Prestige Magazine she said the following:

"I was in some kind of crazyville. The horrific loss of those people's children caused me tremendous grief. I was relating to this earthquake like some kind of crazy mother.

"In that moment, I was so grief-stricken, and I was really relating to their grief. I had lost children myself. All of that was really heavy upon me. I was really speaking as a heartbroken mother.

"I had two pregnancies that I lost in the late fifth month. And this is so awful because I had to go have surgery when my children died. This is a trauma that you just cannot bear."

I agree that miscarriages are truly awful and to lose children in your fifth month of pregnancy has to be even worse. However, trying to use those miscarriages which happened years ago as an excuse for what she said just seems to be a big reach. I think she wants us to feel sorry for her and now reporters will ask her about the miscarriages and she will get a chance to cry and be emotional and hopefully the world will feel like she has suffered enough and that she really didn't mean what she said about all those Chinese children dying.

Why did she wait months to tell this story? From now on will she blame everything bad she says on those miscarriages? All she is doing is trying to get publicity for herself. Nothing more.
