Who was the actual hottie, Jeanne or Sharon??


Guys,

First off lemme confess that am a die hard fan of Jeanne Tripplehorn. Having said that I would love to get your take on this. We all know who eventually became the Hollywood superstar after this movie, but my question is who was the actual hottie in Basic Instinct. Jeanne or Sharon? Be as objective about it as you can. For me it'll always be Jeanne. She's the MILF of them two even now, isn't she? Remember, 'Big Love'?

They're both gorgeous. I think Jeanne is at her hottest in Waterworld. Sharon is at her hottest in this film.

It's true Jeanne Tripplehorn was super cute and probably didn't have the career she deserved (for what reason I have no idea) but she didn't stand a chance if you compare her to Sharon Stone : Sharon Stone was just a sex symbol and miles ahead. Sharon Stones didn't have that much of a career though, did she.

Definitely Tripplehorn.

The blonde bombshell look never did much for me (except for Kim Bassinger). The hot therapist look is much hotter in my eyes. Like Dr Melfi in The Sopranos
