Actress Sharon Stone gushed about “arrogant adolescent” America during a long-winded rant in which she called American voters “uneducated” and “ignorant.”
The 66-year-old made her salty comments during a press event during the Torino Film Festival in Turin, Italy, where she shared the blistering criticism following the recent presidential election.
Stone said her fellow Americans elected Donald Trump because they are “uneducated” and don’t travel enough.
‘My country is in the middle of adolescence. Adolescence is very arrogant. Adolescence thinks it knows everything,” the Basic Instinct actress said.
‘Adolescence is naive, ignorant and arrogant. And we are in our ignorant, arrogant adolescence.
‘We have never seen this before in our country. “So Americans who don’t travel, who 80 percent don’t have passports and who are uneducated, are in their extraordinary naivety,” she continued.
Stone compared Italy’s long history to America’s before saying that Italy has “seen fascism,” “seen what’s happening” under a fascist government and that “the only way we can help with these issues is by to help each other.’
The actresses added that “helping each other” requires recognizing “good men”:
“Good men should help good men,” she said. ‘And those men must be very aware that many of your friends are not good men.

Stone’s shocking rants come after the millionaire actress vowed earlier this year that she would leave America for a new life in Europe if Trump won the election
“You have to be very clear-headed and understand that your friends who are not good men are dangerous, violent men, and you have to keep them away from your daughters, your wives and your girlfriends.
“This is a time when we can no longer look away when bad men are bad,” she concluded.
Her scathing, nearly three-minute rant, clearly aimed at the incoming president, sparked strong reactions from users online, with some calling the celebrity an outrageous elitist.
One user on “X,” formerly Twitter, lambasted Stoney: “The Hollywood elite are out of touch and irrelevant.”
‘You can’t write a better script for a Hollywood celebrity than this. Hilarious,” said another.
‘I don’t think she heard it yet. We don’t give a damn about Hollywood anymore, especially when it’s been irrelevant,” another user added
Another noted that her stance is “exactly why Americans voted for Trump – he stood up for everyday people who were being ignored by these self-proclaimed experts.”
Stone’s comments come after the millionaire actress vowed earlier this year that she would leave America for a new life in Europe if Trump won the election.
She said in July that she is considering buying a house in Italy if Trump is re-elected: “I am definitely considering a house in Italy. I think that’s an intelligent construct at this point.”
She added, “This is one of the first times in my life that I’ve seen someone actually run for office on a platform of hate and oppression.”
