Assuming the mantle from Barbra Streisand
Looks like Barbra has a legitimate heir in Sharon Stone when it comes to the subject of vapid pronouncements. My favorite phrase: "We can choose to have this alternative kind of growth that is a collective nuance of understanding. " Why didn't we think of this before? (Now if we'll all just cross and uncross our legs, can peace be far behind?)

A peaceful co-existence between the peoples of the Middle East is but a breath away, Hollywood star Sharon Stone said after a highly publicized visit to Israel.
"It feels to me that we have an opportunity ... to choose understanding in a new way," she told a press conference in Paris when asked about her trip.
"And it really is just a breath. It's just an agreement that's just a breath. We are not far apart. We can choose to have this alternative kind of growth that is a collective nuance of understanding.
"We are just that breath away from a peaceful co-existence," she added after her visit to Israel as a guest of the Peres Center for Peace, a foundation run by Nobel laureate and former Israeli prime minister Shimon Peres.
Stone, 48, who visited several projects aimed at promoting peace, including a kindergarten for Israeli and Palestinian children in Jaffa, was also photographed praying at the Wailing Wall in Jerusalem, the holiest Jewish shrine.
Stone, who is also an ardent champion of women's rights, was in Paris ahead of the release of her latest film "Basic Instinct II".
She told journalists that she was delighted that women were stepping up to take their place in the world, taking on new jobs to which they brought something unique, "their feminine instinct."
"This is a new and very exciting time for women, because women by their very nature are creative and not destructive. And this is an extraordinary and important thing that we can bring into a world that awaits the opportunity for peace."

Here’s my favorite part:
She told journalists that she was delighted that women were stepping up to take their place in the world, taking on new jobs to which they brought something unique, "their feminine instinct."
Blogball theory behind this statement:
Stones Agent: “Hey Sharon when you are telling the reporters about your spiritual visit to Israel make sure you remind people about your Basic Instinct II movie coming to theatres soon. But don’t make it too obvious”
Man, that flew right by me. That Sharon -- ya gotta love her!
Sigh. I don't even understand anything she said. I guess I don't have that feminine instinct. Luckily for her it's not so much about her instinct or the puffs of hot air that come out of her mouth...it's all in the legs, I suppose.
I absolutely love the "women are... creative and not destructive." That coupled with her unabashed enthusiasm for being a complete sex object in the film(s) ought to have Gloria spinning in her grave...
