Yahoo5 days ago
Sharon Stone's mother, Dorothy Marie Stone, has died. She was 91.
'My hilarious, complex mother died,' Sharon, 67, shared in a heartfelt Instagram post on Monday, July 21. Her words captioned a picture of a smiling Dorothy and laughing Sharon sitting on a sofa together.
Dorothy 'passed away peacefully with her family and close friends by her side on March 26, 2025,' per Montana newspaper Daily Inter Lake.
Dorothy was born in 1933, as the Oscar nominee noted in her post. 'A product of the last depression, let's NOT do this again. 🇺🇸 Let's protect and care," Stone wrote.
The native Pennsylvanian is survived by Sharon and her two other children, daughter Kelly and son Michael, as well as several grandchildren. Dorothy — known as 'Dot' among friends — married her husband Joseph Stone in 1950. They remained married until his death in 2009, just before their 60th anniversary, per the Daily Inter Lake.
Dorothy worked as a bookkeeper at the tool and die company her husband founded, Aggressive Forge. After his death, she split her time between Lakeside Montana and Beverly Hills.

In a 2021 career retrospective at the Zurich Film Festival, Sharon described her mother's parenting style as 'tough,' adding that feminism was among 'the rules of my household." She recalled asking Dorothy, ''Why [do] you never let me lean on you?' She said: 'Because I taught you to stand on your two goddamn feet.' "
The Basic Instinct star has paid tribute to her mother multiple times on social media, sharing a picture of her in November 2023. "MOM, born in '33. Looking gorgeous," she wrote at the time. In November 2021, Sharon announced that Dorothy had suffered an acute stroke.
Among those voicing support for Sharon on her new update were Gwyneth Paltrow, Allison Janney, Billy Eichner, Melanie Griffith and Uzo Aduba.
Stone has three children. She and her then-husband Phil Bronstein adopted son Roan, 25, in 2000. She also adopted son Laird, 20, in 2005, and son Quinn, 19, in 2006.

Taylor Swift's Surprise Album Reaches A Major Milestone

Taylor Swift's Folklore celebrates 260 weeks on the Billboard 200, marking five years on the chart ... More and climbing to No. 68 as it hits half a decade. BEVERLY HILLS, CALIFORNIA - JANUARY 05: Taylor Swift attends the 77th Annual Golden Globe Awards at The Beverly Hilton Hotel on January 05, 2020 in Beverly Hills, California. (Photo by) Taylor Swift shocked the world in the summer of 2020 when she surprise-released her album Folklore in the middle of the COVID-19 pandemic. Nobody was expecting a brand new full-length from one of the world's biggest artists, especially as she had recently been promoting her pop set Lover, which had its campaign interrupted by the global shutdown. Folklore was immediately welcomed as both a critical and commercial behemoth, and it went on to win her another Album of the Year Grammy. Half a decade later, the title remains present on several Billboard rankings, and it even reaches a special milestone this time around. Folklore Reaches Half a Decade on the Billboard 200 Folklore advances on the Billboard 200, pushing from No. 77 to No. 68 at the moment. This week marks its two-hundred-and-sixtieth frame on the most competitive albums tally in the United States, which means it has now lived on the roster for exactly five years. Luminate reports that as Folklore reaches the milestone, it moves another 14,000 equivalent units, almost all of which come from streaming activity. Taylor Swift's Sixth Time Hitting This Milestone Five years on the Billboard 200 is a major accomplishment, one that most artists will never approach…but it's something Swift has managed before. Folklore is her sixth project to rack up 260 stays somewhere on the tally. It follows 1989, Reputation, Lover, her self-titled full-length, and Fearless, which have all previously made it to that landmark. Folklore Nearly Ties Fearless At present, Folklore sits just one week behind Fearless in terms of lifespan on the Billboard 200. Fearless is nowhere to be found at the moment, while Folklore continues to live inside the upper half of the list. There's a good chance that next week, Folklore will tie Fearless as Swift's fifth-longest-running success on the Billboard 200. Then, just days later, it also seems plausible that Folklore will pass Fearless — perhaps for good — and continue to add to its cumulative total. Taylor Swift's Cross-Chart Success Folklore reaches 260 weeks not just on the Billboard 200, but also on the Top Alternative Albums chart, where this week it sits at No. 9. The project also climbs a few spots on the Top Rock & Alternative Albums list, jumping from No. 19 to No. 16. Swift's first pivot into the alternative space lags behind in terms of the number of weeks spent on that ranking, as it is almost exactly 100 frames behind its tenure on both the Billboard 200 and Top Alternative Albums rosters.

Pirates unveil plans final bobblehead night giveaway of the season

The Pittsburgh Pirates have unveiled plans for the team's final bobblehead night of the season. The team announced that the final bobblehead night of the season in September will feature outfielder Bryan Reynolds. Pirates' bobbleheads are a hot commodity as fans have lined up hours before gates opened for the first two giveaways of the season that featured star pitcher Paul Skenes and Pittsburgh's own Mac Miller. The final bobblehead night of the season will be September 6 when the Pirates host the Milwaukee Brewers. The team says the first 20,000 fans in attendance will receive the bobblehead, which features Reynolds wearing a shirt with the sleeves cut off. "One thing's for sure, he likes sleeveless shirts… even on his bobbleheads," the team said in a video announcing the plans for the giveaway. Tickets for the game are available online. The first pitch is scheduled for 6:40 p.m. at PNC Park.
