That hairstyle is all wrong for her, it ages her something terrible. I never would of guessed it was Sharon.
'It's Sharon Stone!' sounds cheap as well, like something from a pantomime.

 

[MON]

The hair shouts "BLOW DRYER MESS".. and the tagline "IT'S SHARON STONE" is cheap and uninspiring

Hahahaha, I love the way the cover shouts out, "It's Sharon Stone!", as if just in case we didn't recognize her face for all the airbrushing. Which, by the way, I didn't.

Tatler covers are almost always boring beyond rescue, and this is really no exception, but I do sometimes wish the bigger fashion publications would pick up maturer stunners like Sharon Stone for their covers, like Tatler has here. I would love to see someone like the gorgeous Stone, styled in some less obvious way, on the cover of say, even Vogue Paris. I know some people will cringe at the mere thought, but I think there is potential in it for something fabulous and unexpected.

(Though I have to say her October cover for Spanish Vogue was really something I would've expected more of Elle than the former. Though at the same time, it was kinda great. I'm so confused now.)

On another note, anyone able to identify what she's wearing here? Because from the looks of it, I love it.

As always, thanks for posting, tarsha!

[tigerrouge]

I saw this today in the store and it doesn't look as bad as that scan suggests.

 

[Northern Star]

To be honest when I fisrt saw this, at first glance I thought it was Ellen DeGeneres Then I saw her name and nearly crapped myself......it is really bad IMO and such a shame because the pics in her feature inside are gorgeous.

Sharon Stone: 'Meryl Streep looks like an unmade bed'

Sharon Stone has described fellow Hollywood actress Meryl Streep as looking "like an unmade bed".

By Anita Singh, Showbusiness Editor
Published: 5:49PM GMT 06 Jan 2010

In what could be mistaken for a backhanded compliment, the Basic Instinct star said women can relate to Streep because she looks so ordinary.

"I think that's why Meryl Streep is working so much, because she looks like a woman we can all relate to," Stone told Tatler magazine.

"I look at her and I think, 'I'm chasing my kids, I've moved my parents in with me, I'm coping with food spills - that looks like me in real life'.

"Meryl looks like an unmade bed, and that's what I look like. To me, that looks true."

Streep, 60, is currently on the big screen in the romantic comedy It's Complicated, and is tipped to pick up her 14th Oscar nomination next month for Julie & Julia.

Stone, 51, insisted that her own glamorous good looks are entirely natural, and that she looks fantastic at 51 thanks to exercise and good genes. She is currently the face of Dior's anti-ageing skincare range.

"I have had zero, nothing done to myself: no lifting, no Botox, no injectables," she said.

"I did try something once and I saw myself in a movie and didn't like the way I looked. I thought I looked like I had a giant balloon head, and I felt it wasn't for me.

"I think everyone here [in LA] looks like everyone else. It's goldfish number one, two and three, and I didn't want to be goldfish number four. I'm not saying I might not do a little something later on but it's just not me now."

Instead, she prefers to maintain her looks "the old-fashioned way - to go to the gym and take care of your internal life. It might take more effort but you get something nicer to give back to the world."

She went on: "I'm not one of those ladies who won't say their age. I'm very grateful for it. We get different faces as we go through our lives. If you try to hang on to the face you had when you were younger, you end up desperate. I'm happy with the way I am now, with this 51-year-old person."

Sharon, beds have been a big part of nearly every character you've ever played, so I can see why the comparison springs so easily to mind, but it's not one that'll do you any service.

 

[ForChicSake]

can someone id the dress she's wearing

 

[Kanna]

I think it's a beautiful cover, though she doesn't look like herself.

 

[Deleted member 116957]

She looks like a weird version of Lauren Hutton to me on the cover.

I think it's a beautiful cover, though she doesn't look like herself.

That's why they have to put IT'S SHARON STONE! in massive letters, so people can i.d her!

 

[liberty33r1b]

she looks like SJP on this cover, but not in a good way...

 

[Cinthia]

i dont remember the last time she was relevant. does she still have a career?

 

[Harumi]

"I have had zero, nothing done to myself: no lifting, no Botox, no injectables," she said.

Yep, yep, she's all natural.

Just like Nicole Kidman and Demi Moore.
