Melbourne
(ANI):
Sharon
Stone
has
incurred
the
wrath
of
many
by
claiming
that
the
Chinese
earthquake,
which
killed
at
least
80,000
people,
was
"karma." The
actress
made
the
trouble
inviting
statement
at
the
Cannes
film
festival
after
being
asked
if
she
had
heard
about
the
disaster
that
hit
China
recently.
"Of
course
I
have.
Well
you
know
at
first
I
thought
I'm
not
happy
with
the
way
the
Chinese
are
treating
the
Tibetans...
and
I've
been
concerned
with
should
we
have
the
Olympics
because
they're
not
being
nice
to
the
Dalai
Lama
who's
a
good
friend
of
mine," the
Daily
Telegraph
quoted
her,
as
saying.
She
added:
"And
then
all
this
earthquake
and
stuff
happened
and
I
thought,
'Is
that
Karma,
when
you're
not
nice
and
the
bad
things
happen
to
you?"
Meanwhile,
a
similar
gaffe
is
credited
to
sex
tape
star
Kim
Kardashian
who
was
taped
making
a
joke
about
the
Burmese
cyclone
which
claimed
the
lives
of
134,000
dead
and
left
2.4
million
in
need
of
aid.
