Sharon Stone to record an album?

Sharon Stone is setting her sights on a singing career after her latest film Basic Instinct 2 flopped at the US box office last weekend.

Stone previously co-wrote Come Together Now, last November's all-star song for US hurricane relief, and is now aiming for the pop charts herself.

After her appearance on a US talk show last week, Stone reportedly hit a Manhattan, New York, recording studio, and insiders claim the actress has been writing songs with collaborators for the past year.
