Not the most retiring woman around…

In general, teenage boys are impossible to shut up – teachers can be driven to the edge of a nervous breakdown by their incessant shouting. And yet, one thing is guaranteed to induce a shocked, sweaty silence – the Sharon Stone leg crossing scene from Basic Instinct. A sequence played to shreds on delicate VHS players back in the 1990s. Before that she’d had a little role as Arnie’s sassy wife in Total Recall, but it wasn’t until she took her clothes off to reveal her actual breasts that people started to appreciate her acting work. And what work! Basic Instinct, Basic Instinct 2, the one where she has it off with Billy Baldwin. Meryl Streep would kill to have those on her CV. In seriousness, she did an excellent job in Casino. What a gal.

Of course, there will be no Sharon Stone for the boys, without a bit of something something for the girls. Below is Tom Selleck.

You’re welcome.
