Sharon Stone Says She Lost 'Half My Money to This Banking Thing'

received the Courage Award on Thursday night during the Women’s Cancer Research Fund’s An Unforgettable Evening fundraiser and offered some remarks that left her in tears.

The 65-year-old actress stood behind the podium inside the Four Seasons Beverly Wilshire ballroom and spoke to a crowd that included Rebel Wilson, Nia Vardalos, Rachel Zoe, Lisa Rinna, Harry Hamlin, Julianne Hough, Chord Overstreet, Maria Bello, Dominique Crenn, Lori Loughlin, Olivia Jade Giannulli, Paul Wesley, NJ Falk, and Kathy and Rick Hilton.

"Those mammograms are not fun," she said."And for someone like me who was told that I had breast cancer because I had a tumor that was larger than my breast and they were sure that I couldn’t possibly have a tumor without it being cancer, it wasn’t. But I went to the hospital, saying, 'If you open me up and it’s cancer, please take both my breasts,' because I am not a person defined by my breasts. You know, that might seem funny coming from me since you’ve all seen ‘em.

Stone then broke down in tears as she tried to get the crowd to open their checkbooks again, this time for HIV/AIDS and other causes on behalf of organizations like amfAR.

A fool and her money are easily parted.
