American Actress Sharon Stone has revealed a traumatic experience from her past when she was going through surgery to remove benign tumours in 2001.
The Basic Instinct star had the operation, but when she woke up, she revealed she had a "full cup-size bigger breasts" than before because the surgeonthought it suited her better.
She told the Times newspaper: "When I was un-bandaged, I discovered that I had a full cup-size bigger breasts, ones that he said, 'go better with your hip size'. He had changed my body without my knowledge or consent ... He thought that I would look better with bigger, better boobs."
Stone previously admitted she lost her "radiance" during her seven-year recovery from a stroke, which she suffered in 2001.
"My radiance went away. It isn't so much your beauty as your radiance. It's a radiance and a magnetism and a presence ...

"Yes, it comes from health and wellbeing and youth. It comes from confidence too. And when you are in this business that we're in, they start telling you that you don't have it anymore and you start believing it."
During her health battle, Stone revealed her late grandmother visited her when she was in hospital as she had an out-of-body experience.
"One night I awoke to my grandmother Lela standing at the foot of my bed. I know that sounds reasonable, except my grandmother had been dead for 30 years. She looked beautiful. She smelled beautiful: she always wore Guerlain perfume, Shalimar. She was at her best, wearing her favourite suit and hat. She said, 'We don't really know what's wrong with you - we are working on it. But whatever you do, don't move your neck'.
"Then she was gone. I took the teddy bear my dad had brought me, squiggled to the side of the bed, and stuffed that bear by my neck and DID NOT MOVE. No matter what, I immobilised myself. I did not roll onto my side."
