Sharon Stone<\/strong> is clapping back after fellow attendees rudely accused her of stealing a seat at their table after they failed to recognize the A-list actress.<\/p>\n

The Casino<\/em> star, 67, won a Timeless Award\u00a0 at the Astras Awards and used her acceptance speech to call out the \u201ckids\u201d involved in the awkward encounter.<\/p>\n

While the ceremony took place on January 9, a clip of the fiery speech picked up steam after the event, eventually going viral this week.<\/p>\n

\u201cAnd to the kids at my table who wondered, \u2018Who the f**k took that chair?\u2019 Now you know,\u201d Stone said while accepting her award.<\/p>\n

Further explaining the context but without naming the people in question, Stone continued, \u201cYeah, someone came over and said, \u2018Who are you and why are you sitting here?\u2019\u201d Stone added, \u201cAs she said, \u2018F**k you!\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\tSharon Stone knows what her legacy will be \u2014 and she brought one of her most iconic onscreen moments to mind with a photo shared via Instagram on Friday, July 12. Stone, 66, recreated the most memorable moment from the 1992 erotic thriller Basic Instinct. In that neo-noir film, Stone played murderous crime novelist Catherine [\u2026]\t\t<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

After putting the \u201ckids\u201d on blast due to their impolite treatment at the event, Stone then used the opportunity to urge them to use their fame and success for the greater good.<\/p>\n

\u201cMore importantly, and more to the point, I\u2019d like to say welcome to you. And I\u2019d like to say, this is an opportunity. Because I started my activism work when my fame kicked in. And I\u2019d like to give you an opportunity to start your activism work now that your consciousness has kicked in,\u201d Stone continued. \u201cBecause fame without awareness, success without purpose, is pointless.\u201d<\/p>\n

During the speech, Stone also touched on her iconic role as Catherine Tramell in 1992\u2019s Basic Instinct<\/em> and explained the persistence it took in order to nab the gig in the first place.<\/p>\n

\u201cI wasn\u2019t the first person they offered Basic Instinct<\/em> to. But I was the person who got a manager to bring her to the office and get her the script,\u201d she said. \u201cAnd I was the person who was prepared, because I had that script for eight months. And I was the person who had a manager to call every single f**king day, because I wanted that part.\u201d<\/p>\n

Stone\u2019s tenacity and effort clearly paid off, and she urged others to chase their dreams and not let anything get in the way of making them a reality.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen you want something, as an artist, you should go and get it, because you know what\u2019s meant for you, and you know where you can fit and where you can make a change with your art,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n

In the past, Stone has been candid about the difficulties she\u2019s faced while working in Hollywood, including sharing an anecdote about her famous Basic Instinct<\/em> scene.<\/p>\n
