on larry king now the time was joan when i started my career i couldn't get the glamorous parts because people didn't think that i was sexy and they didn't think that i was beautiful enough now you've had a tough time of life you've had some rough themis people are regular people whose jobs have a great big window in the office i think people forget that plus they were a ball with. none of your business mr i've been married fifteen times mean moment my systems all next on larry king now. welcome to larry king no hold to do for them we're in larry's kitchen he has one of

these on the kitchen table oh stop it sharon stone one of the stars of an incredible lead lovelace. i've known you to use we've had a thing for you is. not a bad doctor anyway movie comes on you come on why did you you don't look like you you're a frumpy woman you're playing a mother and you're a devout christian. splaying why you took this world at a mean it's a great script it's a great great movie it's a great great directors we have these wonderful two directors two time oscar award winning directors peabody award winning directors wonderful actors amanda's i'faith plays linda lovelace peter scar scar plays the kind of villain is always a friend come husband just wonderful i mean it is just such an. amazing opportunity to be in a great movie with great people but you're a glamorous star you would be. you're golden globes you're great on the on the no

no larry stop you drop dead gorgeous and you knew that of miss film no one's going to say boy i want her to write. like that i have women who love about heiresses would not have to take a bit well but you know i think the thing to do is to take good parts with good people i mean it's not a vanity contest it's the opportunity to play good parts and you see pictures of the mother did you yes we did a lot of research i mean now you can go on the internet and find anything really so be careful larry. there she was like that but she was like that as she was i mean we didn't try to impersonate her we really just tried to capture the essence of the character which is which i think that we did and and the directors were really they were wonderful you know we tried all these different things we tried prosthetic teeth we tried fat or fat suits we tried all different kinds of things and

ultimately they really encouraged me to just find the essence of her and to act it not really to look for. these kind of this gear to impersonate her they really wanted me to find the truth of the character within beautiful story you have a to see the things that sort of stick to power looked about to go to beauty both the two hours when you saw your show and you have any has of the sea about wanting to play this no i mean for me when i started my career i couldn't get the glamorous parts because people didn't think that i was sexy and they didn't think that i was beautiful enough no because i'm is you know me a long time i'm really a bookworm and i'm a shy person and it was harder for me to pull myself together to get people to find me beautiful and sexy and once i crossed that hum. then i got

kind of pigeonholed into the beautiful sexy parts because i really i really figured that to them as he gives the group well it it sort of doing a movie it helped me but i got very you know i got into it and it was really fun it was so fun for people to find me pretty and sexy and and it was very flattering and i had such a good time with that i think when you're thirty two years old and suddenly everyone thinks you're the pretty girl it's such a blast to be a pretty girl and i really enjoyed it and then i got kind of like can i do anything else. and apparently no so it took a long time in my career to get to this point where i could play other things i just tweeted out. about seven episodes of you on law and order. you were terrific so thank you but those of the interesting character the prosecutor yeah that was a good way that the whole season no no i just did those episodes but that was very

intriguing to research i i went on drive around with the drug team and we went out at night and i got to do the whole thing with the bulletproof vests and the helmet and go with the guys on the drug raids with the dogs which is just phenomenal those dogs are amazing you know when they bust down the doors the dogs go in first and the dogs can literally open cupboards pull open the drawers and they go through these buildings and the dogs will indicate every where the the drugs are and then the team pulls out the drugs they bring out the people and handcuff them on the streets it's a fascinating thing there's whether it's a liberation series are you a terrific you're a hard nosed prosecutor well i know as i said i take the good parts and good book and it was a good part it was an interesting part i had. i had in half which i thought was a. fascinating show with an amazing cast i don't and the practice which i want an

emmy for and really enjoyed that of again fabulous cast and great david kelly phenomenal writer so it just depends i mean if it's good material i'll do it but you know. not all the time for t.v. but just when it's something quite good back to deep throat so would you wake me up in the mill a night for. i was really hoping that i could have. back in here for a while. here. you know that's possible i know how would it work for a married woman to move in with her parents apart from her. parents name i. can't say i'm surprised. what you do what do you mean what i

to what did you do to make him angry he didn't just hitch out of the blue. i guess i didn't do what he wanted me to. do you took a foul a very serious foul. can i just sit like a few to please and then what are you going to get a divorce where you think we are protestant ma you just don't understand i mean linda lovelace in order strategy we should be on it but call it. she got to dislike the whole thing about before the game against pornography like did you see before i've never seen a pornographic film. that was the fall

was why i had no interest no it just doesn't really has never really drawn me to it of course when i'm in europe. particularly scandinavian countries when you just change the channel it's on regular television so it had a seed so i've seen pieces of it as i flip the channels but it's funny to me it's actually kind of silly but deep through me was a great one graphic i don't want to of be thrilled and it was funny that's what i heard that it was funny to pack them in it was hysterical when she had even after making a movie had no desire to see before you know the movie does there's a lot more but it's about get over it so about the most abuse yes she went through and i felt particularly by playing her mom that for me that was the pull of the peace that you know she had been she had had a very difficult childhood herself the mother and i felt that in that period in the

seventy's there wasn't what we have gleaned from women's rights and from human rights the ability to come forth and talk talk about what's happened there wasn't language that women had to talk to each other to talk to their children there wasn't that kind of education i feel that's one of the reasons why it is so important that we continue to hold onto our rights our human rights and our rights as women because these things are invaluable to raising children who are healthy and protected. and you kind of disappeared for a while. you stop me to movies well i got married i started raising children of my own and as you know i had a very severe stroke i had a brain hemorrhage you know yes it i had a nine day brain hemorrhage before they found out that i had a ruptured vertebral artery and so i had a very long recovery from that i had a couple years of very difficult recovery though so to go to go to losing custody

of the boy is because as i was recovering my husband divorced me a married his girlfriend and they sent me for custody of my son and i wasn't really i would say certainly in retrospect i wasn't strong enough and healthy enough to be in court several times fighting for custody knew you do in that period i was a tough time it was a very difficult time the boys were born the same day ten in the same may twenty second i was you know you see a lot of his thirteen year i see a lot of him and he spends all his summers vacations and stuff with us and we spent the summer in italy with my three boys and i have three i adopted two other children on my own so i would you decided to urge combat well of course you know it's my job and it's the job that i love and as i became stronger and more well and

of course you know from my brain hemorrhage i initially lost my short and some of my long term memory so i had to recover all of my brain functions and it took time off before i was really well enough to work consistently and film even when i did law and order i was still struggling with my short term memory it to be able to be consistently powerful enough to work the long hours on the sets did you panic when you did. i would say that i. as much as i saw that i wasn't going to have a lot of compassion and her on a set you have to be ready and you have to be ready to work you know people don't have time for that as hollywood james was used to we you know were in digital film when i left working we were still working on regular film and now it's digital so you have to be on it you have to be fast and you have to be ready was what is the difference of technically just continue to roll there's not

a lot of breaks and cut down time and is faster to light it's faster to shoot it's faster to work so you have to really be prompt and efficient and you have. less time to do a movie everything takes less time movies and television which is of course a blessing all the way lead the way it was then we used to say on pay to work they pay to wait and see game but when you come back strong we know you must feel it's a river eight now it's wonderful and my kids are big or now you know they're really they're in school they're doing well everything's great so you're in a boat with you and no. under your business as tr i've been married fifteen times. none of my business your business is our business is in belong to them to us don't you see just what was it like being a single parent you know it's good it's good it's hard work of course and you never do it alone you have to have a nanny you know to have a great one which we do we have a wonderful girl kathy who's with us and and and kathy who comes in sometimes to

help us so i'm blessed to have great help this is to my sister kelly is good but. as you know my sister has lupus and so we work with the lupus foundation and that's been great because there's been breakthroughs in that area you had a tough time of life a lot you know the people she used glam was the most of them you had some role famous people are regular people whose jobs have a great big window in the office everybody's just a normal person you know and i think people forget that they think that famous people are somehow different or how are immune from real life things but we aren't and so we go through our normal struggles like everyone else and we do fun but we try to be treated to get regenerate it is again there are many times when we bid you the miscarriages yes you keep you do survivor right yet you get up off the floor and well i am my philosophy is it's not how you fall it's how you get up and

do you have the dignity and the courage and the integrity to get up and keep your moral compass together we'll be right brown with sharon stone. what defines a country's success. faceless figures of economic growth. standard of living.

and could you intimidated the sense that it was. as a tale about approaching you figuring that she's well i do believe that everybody has to have a moral compass not just me and i think that people will use these excuses not to show up and not to be straight out not to be. not to come with fair play to their side of the street clean but i say. well i wouldn't say that they lie to me i think that there are great people good people and people that are you know perpetually immature so there's takes all kinds of you learn but as to how to spot them. i would say sooner i know sooner what is happening but you

haven't. thing right there. do you want to do that yeah i think it's time i think it's time for our ritual. oh is dead famous do with. need to vent if you're still involved. if you want yes we had a great dance yes we have done well and this year in cannes which is was our twentieth year anniversary and the can in our am far festival at the cannes film festival in the south of france we raised thirty four million dollars and all of that goes to scientific research and we've done so well we had a pediatric cure in the last year we've had adults who have now through stem cell research all of this is been through am far funding so we're very proud of our work we're really getting somewhere now you've met with new moves would tell you

that you need to yes. it's been almost twenty years for me now as well when elizabeth couldn't come to cannes and they asked me to fill in for her and they asked me to fill in for one night and they asked me to fill in for three years why did you get so personally involved with aids well it just happened that way and and i think that it's where integrity meets opportunity through these years i put on a hazmat suit in the beginning and looked at aids under a microscope then i started going to the research laboratories and meeting with scientists to become informed then. i went to orphanages and spent a lot of time with babies whose parents had already died and spend holidays holding these kids i spent a lot of time with moms who were dying of aids who would die before their children i spent a lot of time i went to camp pendleton and spent time with marines who were coming

back from fighting in wars and through their injuries found out that they were hiv positive some of whose families disowned them because even though they were valiant veterans they would not take them home because they found out that they were gay so through these very. very profound experiences i just continued to feel that there was a place for me to be of service and as that need continued to be present i felt that my fame had. had a purpose and that sense of dignity that sense of you know my faith really guided me and. you know it was very hard there were years when i just felt buckled by. i think i lost a lot of work i would say that i didn't get hired for

a long time and during the bush administration you know there wasn't a lot of support. we weren't supposed to say condom. publicly which was very disturbing to me. i was there was a lot of aggression. i didn't get any movie work for a long period of time there was a lot of things that happened. just because it was a controversial subject and ultimately we have you know. aids is one and hiv is one of the leading killers of women. you don't seem to hear a lot of people think that if you live with it well you live longer and more productive lives but we just don't have an available cure for aids aids is still a death sentence and aids is very prominent with with young people and we really

still have to impress upon people the danger of hiv and not just i.v. as t.d. it's you know there are a lot of very dangerous as and i think that it's very very important that we stress to people how important safe sex is banos banos red foundation two thousand and ten thousand babies were born with a drug the every day in two thousand and eleven was down to nine hundred eighty says that by two thousand and fifteen the number could be zero it could be if we. protect ourselves and we become as active and involved as we should be and we get the governmental funding that we need and we get the education that is so needed yes but it could be you brought in i'm told is the correct word or more than fifteen thousand dollars for. despite kissing kate moss. you brought

in fifty three thousand five hundred twenty dollars allotting lips. i would think it we should also not say that i kiss kate moss i think we should say that kate offered this. as an option item she is really a wonderful active participant is raised up to do as you she and she offered her signature on on an item a she offered to give things too far she came to the event in brazil she's she's a terrific girl and kate is such an icon that people really wanted to see her on the stage they wanted to see her donate items and she was such a great sport so and she kissed also she kissed the guy who. gave this money so she was such a terrific sport yes did you enjoy it. you know yeah but i could have been in a phone though so i know they only as you good journalist you good come out of the

news or lovelace by the way are my the original b. and a great great performances all the way around yeah thank you there's still a buddhist of course you know whether what you think happens when we when we depart . you know i can say. we lost my dad going on three years ago in december and i so clearly felt my father's presence for a long time after he died at my at my house he died in our home. my dad beat esophageal cancer seven years before he died the unbeatable cancer they gave him three percent chance of living three months and he used both eastern and western. medicine to be his offer joe cancer he meditated and and it was a wonderful situation and he he had a. he had a tumor that was through the esophagus that was in operable and he meditated and

visualise the tumor and it went back inside the esophagus and they were able to give him the surgery that saved his life and he became a real active meditator through those years before he got cancer again seven years later and you think he's somewhere in the well i really felt him and and heard him and feel his presence and feel him communicating with me i do feel there's a very thin thin membrane between us and the people who have passed over yeah i i just don't feel i feel that when we leave the body that the soul is ever present. hope you're right i do to one of the questions. so should be of scenes of people want to know are you happy with your life i am i'm a happy person but i believe that happiness is

a discipline i think that we choose happiness and it's a lot like working out you have to stay present with it and work with it and make decisions to be happy and let go of the negative globalism and killing it's good to see them do it again. you know such a high. but you know. if sharon stone the movie is lovelace and you will love it and her and q. lovelies opens in theaters friday august ninth then remember didn't find me on twitter. things i'll see you next time.
