Sharon Stone Says LAPD Protected Her During O.J. Simpson Car Chase And Stood Guard
HuffPost
Despite her massive "Basic Instinct" fame, Stone was still living in a small home without a gate when Simpson fled police.
Sharon Stone is recalling yet another wild blip from her life — one involving O.J. Simpson.
The “Basic Instinct” (1992) star revealed Tuesday to InStyle that she was so famous at the height of her career that the Los Angeles Police Department issued her protection during Simpson’s infamous car chase on June 17, 1994 — and sternly told Stone “he’s dangerous.”
While “Instinct” had made her famous, Stone said she only earned $500,000 for the role and was still living in a modest home without a gate. This spurred regular trespassing and required a constant police presence, particularly after Simpson, or “The Juice,” was loose.
The former football player had just been accused of murdering his wife Nicole Brown and her lover Ron Goldman, but failed to turn himself in — and was instead barreling through Los Angeles in a white Ford Bronco in the most famous televised cop car chase in history.
Stone recalled in the interview that an officer knocked on her door to whisk her away after stating: “He’s dangerous. And we don’t know how dangerous, and we don’t know what this is.” Stone said police gave her 10 minutes to pack a bag before they moved her to a hotel.
