Sharon Stone reveals that Mick Jagger told her to put aluminum foil over hotel windows to help her sleep

Sharon Stone has revealed that she covered her hotel windows with aluminum foil after Mick Jagger told her it would help her sleep.

The actress, 63, was told by the Rolling Stones frontman, 77, that the handy hint would be her only hope for ‘a decent sleep’ on the go.

In her book, The Beauty of Living Twice, she said, ‘I did this. My room was a tomb. I would come in and fall on the bed fully clothed. ‘

The Basic Instinct star explained, ‘Hey [Mick] told me to get a decent sleep, when he arrived in a new city he bought several rolls of aluminum foil and masking tape and then put the foil over the windows in the hotel rooms,

‘I did this. My room was a tomb. I came in and fell on the bed fully clothed and my cat, Boxer, would wrap around my head, dig its claws into me and stuff me up until I fell asleep. ”

The title of Sharon’s memoir The Beauty of Living Twice refers to the star’s second chance at life after surviving a stroke and brain haemorrhage in 2001.

“I feel like I’m dead,” the actress told Closer Weekly. This kind of giant whirlpool of white light was on me and – poof! I left a little bit in this glorious bright white light.

At the time of the stroke, Sharon was alive in San Francisco with her husband journalist Phil Bronstein, whom she later parted ways in 2003.

When the hemorrhage happened in September 2001, the actress thought she was having a stroke and waited three days to go to the hospital.

The incident caused her to take a break from acting as she learned to talk and walk again. “It almost feels like my entire DNA has changed,” she said.

While in the white light, she said she had met her dead friends.

“I started seeing and meeting some of my friends … people who were very, very dear to me [who had died]I took a real journey with this that took me to places here and beyond. ‘

Sharon added: ‘But it was very fast – whoosh! Suddenly I was back. I was in my body. ‘

The mother of three said, “It has affected my life so profoundly that it will never be the same again.”

And she said there are benefits to the near-death experience.

Sharon explained, “I don’t have to fear dying and I can tell other people it’s wonderful and death is a gift.

“When death comes to you as it pleases, it is a wonderful and beautiful thing. I had an incredible sense of well-being and the feeling of being so close. Dead – it is very close and very safe. It’s not far away or scary. ‘

“I feel like God has kept me close for a reason,” said The Muse star.
