Her leg-crossing scene in hit 1992 movie Basic Instinct is one of the most iconic in modern movie history.
The famous interrogation scene in Basic Instinct saw Sharon’s character Catherine quizzed by police including Michael Douglas.
Amid the bombardment of questions, Catherine distracts them when she uncrosses the recrosses her legs, leaving the men flustered seeing as she was underwear-free at the time.

The scene was highly controversial at the time, and now has gone down as one of the most infamous in movie history.
Sharon has previously described the scene as one that had ‘changed my life’.
She said: ‘Some years ago I was sitting on a sound stage, and my director said, ‘Can you hand me your underpants because we’re seeing them in the scene and you shouldn’t have underpants on but we won’t see anything’.
‘I said, ‘sure.’ I didn’t know this moment would change my life.’

In the past, the Academy Award nominated actress has maintained she was ‘tricked’ into exposing herself for the cameras.
In her memoir The Beauty of Living Twice, Sharon described how she slapped her director Paul Verhoeven in fury and walked out of a preview of the erotic thriller after discovering his assurances that it wouldn’t show up on screen had been a lie and that the audience could — as she put it — ‘see all the way to Nebraska’.
For his part, Verhoeven has vehemently dismissed her claims that she was taken by surprise in the leg-crossing scene.
He said: ‘Any actress knows what she’s going to see if you ask her to take off her underwear and point there with the camera.’
But the Hollywood veteran has also been adamant she didn’t have any regrets about making the film.
‘Regrets are like farts, you can’t get them back. Once they’re out, there’s stinky and gone,’ she quipped previously.
