Dior Dumps Stone Over China Comments

Christian Dior has dropped ads featuring Sharon Stone from its advertising campaign in China.

Last week, Stone apparently suggested last week that the recent earthquakes in Sichuan Province were karmic retribution for Beijing’s treatment of Tibet.

Facing the possibility of a boycott of its products, Dior quickly dropped Stone like a hot lava rock.

Here's what Stone said last week during the Cannes Film Festival: “I’m not happy about the way the Chinese are treating the Tibetans because I don’t think anyone should be unkind to anyone else. And then the earthquake and all this stuff happened, and then I thought, is that karma? When you’re not nice that the bad things happen to you?"
