Sharon Stone says she's 'open for business' after her dating profile is unblocked
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}Sharon Stone is single, and once again, ready to mingle.
In December, the 61-year-old actress announced via social media that her account on the dating app Bumble had been blocked. Now, however, her account has been restored, and she's back in the game.

Stone was told that her account was blocked after several users reported that it was a fake profile, and she has her own theory as to why.
"I think that I said no to a couple of people that thought that it would be a nice way to be not-so-kind back," said the "Basic Instinct" star. "I think some people don't like to hear, 'No, no I don't want to go out with you.'"
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}The actress then said that things on the app are "going OK."
"I'm actually having a nice time," said Stone. "I've met a couple of nice people, and I've actually made a couple of nice friends by doing that."
Despite being an Oscar-nominated, world-famous movie star, Stone is looking for a loving relationship, just like anyone else on the app.

"I'm looking for someone who wants to have a caring and compassionate and loving relationship like anybody else," she explained.
After being blocked last year, the actress shared a photo on Instagram, calling out the dating app for the mistake.
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}"I went on the @bumble dating site and they closed my account," she wrote in the caption. "Some users reported that it couldn’t possibly be me! Hey @bumble, is being me exclusionary? Don’t shut me out of the hive."
Bumble tweeted shortly after, ensuring the actress that they'd restored her account and prevented it from being blocked in the future.

We hope that everyone in our community takes a sec to verify their profiles. (Catherine Tramell from Basic Instinct gets a pass today!)"
