Sharon Stone | 10/3/1958 | 63

Sharon Stone has been an iconic fashion symbol for decades. Born in Pennsylvania, she started modeling after being convinced to drop out of her college studies. Stone signed on to Ford Models in New York. She moved to Europe to continue her career there. The young model subsequently worked for commercials and print ads. However, a few years later, the budding runway talent decided to end her modeling career to focus instead on acting. Stone made her acting debut in 1980 and then made appearances in films and TV series throughout the decade like Above the Law, King Solomon’s Mines, and Bay City Blues.

During the 1990s, Stone started to gain attention. Her performance in Total Recall was well-liked by both audiences and critics. However, her risqué role as serial killer Catherine Tramell in Basic Instinct made her famous. Other films and TV series Stone starred in include Casino, Bobby, and Ratched. Throughout her career, she won an Emmy and a Golden Globe, and an Oscar nomination. In later years, she went back to college to finish her degree, which she did in 2016.
