40 is old age
40 is old age

How old do you think Arina Rodionovna was when Pushkin addressed her as "my decrepit old lady"? Surprisingly, the "old lady" was barely 41 years old. Tolstoy's Anna Karenina was only 26. And what is the "Balzac age"? After all, the great Frenchman was referring to women in their early thirties.

Nowadays, all this is already perceived as an anachronism. The twentieth century gave a woman a luxurious gift, pushing back the age limit of her active life by at least twenty-five years.

Earlier this year, the whole of Hollywood was spreading sensational news — Sharon Stone is getting married, "The smartest bitch in Hollywood," famous for her intelligence no less than her sharp tongue, has finally found her prince. Her attitude to marriage was a byword in Hollywood. Someone claimed that she had solemnly promised to get married before the age of forty. Someone, on the contrary, said that she had sworn never to do it again. It would seem that the whole of Hollywood was lying at the feet of this blonde beast, but in each of her interviews, over and over again, Sharon never tired of repeating how unhappy and lonely she was. What was missing from the sex symbol?

Sharon Stone broke into Hollywood's "star team" late but quickly. For ten years she languished on the sidelines, playing the supporting roles of smiling blonde fools. The newspapers always wrote about her phenomenal intelligence. Conversations about this carried a fair shade of surprise — why would such a beautiful girl need such brains? Anyway, these same brains helped Sharon realize that the situation was unlikely to change by itself. The producers and the public wanted to see her exclusively as a sex symbol, and Sharon decided to build her path to stardom on this.

Needless to say, the consequences of this ingenious maneuver have exceeded all expectations — the picture has not yet appeared on the screen, no one has really seen anything yet, but because of the hype and scandal fanned by the press, Sharon has already become a new global sex symbol. She earned both money and fame in abundance. Was she satisfied with the dividends that her new "star" status brought her? Well, maybe only at first.

Her life was now under the gaze of the press, the army of fans had turned into a multimillion-dollar one, Hollywood's most enviable suitors were at her feet, but Sharon's dream was still a dream — no one wanted to see her as anything but a "body", even the most desirable in the world.
