US actress Sharon Stone has brushed off Hollywood in favour of humanitarianism, saying “it took 35 years, but I’m in the right room”.

The star found fame in 1992’s Basic Instinct opposite Michael Douglas, and later lost out on winning an Oscar for Martin Scorsese’s crime thriller Casino to Susan Sarandon in Dead Man Walking.
