Sharon Stone, the timeless femme fatale, is back and hotter than ever inside the pages of L’Officiel Australia magazine. The leg-crossing vixen has laid low over the few years to concrete on raising her family, but readies a return to the silver screen with the upcoming movie What About Love.

On the subject of her past controversial roles, the 56 year old actress had this to say, “I can play a provocative character, that doesn’t make me provocative.”
