<p>Sharon Stone has confessed she was &#8220;embarrassed&#8221; and &#8220;horrified&#8221; when she first saw Basic Instinct &#8211; as she didn&#8217;t realise how much of her body would be revealed.</p>
<p>The 52-year-old star claimed on CNN&#8217;s Piers Morgan Tonight show that director Paul Verhoeven had led her to believe only &#8216;shadow&#8217; would be shown in her infamous leg un-crossing scene, and she was mortified when he first showed her the film at a screening surrounded by other people.</p>
<p>Sharon said: &#8220;He had told me when we shot the scene that the light was reflecting off of my underwear, and that if I took off my underwear, there would be a shadow, that we wouldn&#8217;t see my pubic hair, as we do in the film, where everybody keeps claiming they see my vagina.&#8221;</p>
<p>She went on: &#8220;He screened the movie with me publicly with many people in a room. He didn&#8217;t give me a chance to see it, digest it.</p>
<p>&#8220;I think more I was just so shocked and I was embarrassed not to be able to process it alone with him than I was so horrified. Because I agree that it was very, very good for the movie. But I didn&#8217;t have the chance to process it individually and get my brain around it.&#8221;</p>
<p>But the actress also said she felt her character, man-eater Catherine Tramell, had sexually empowered women.</p>
<p>Sharon said: &#8220;It has been a film that empowered women in their feminine &#8211; not just their sexual &#8211; but their feminine identity.</p>
<p>&#8220;That kind of fearsomeness allowed women to feel empowered, allowed women to say what they really wanted to say. And men actually really liked it.</p>
<p>&#8220;Men felt like women can tell me what they want and what they like and what they think. And it is exciting to hear that, I think.&#8221;</p>
