UPDATED with Stone comment: After an outpouring of concern from Hollywood notables prompted by Joe Biden‘s performance in the first 2024 presidential debate, Sharon Stone offered a counterpoint today in a video she posted to Instagram.
“I’ve been thinking a lot about last night’s debate,” Stone says to camera from the passenger seat of a car, “and I’ve been thinking about he fact that more women the fact that more women are registered to vote than any other singular group. So, ladies, remember this: No matter how sleepy Joe may have seemed, he’s wide awake for you. So vote, for yourself.”
The tenor is a far cry from the panic registered by many last night. More on that below.
PREVIOUSLY on Thursday night: It’s no secret that Hollywood is a largely liberal town. But the optimism that was flashed before Thursday night’s first 2024 presidential debate began has apparently given way to a largely glum outlook in the wake of the Joe Biden-Donald Trump battle.
A few of the early reactions:
As MAGA and pro America as I am…. I take no happiness in this debate. Biden is clearly not here. This is sad. Obama is sacrificing his friend to push his radical policies and I don't want any of us celebrating after this.
Yes Trump is clearly the better choice… but let’s take…
Tonight will be remembered in the history books in one of two ways: as the moment adults in the room stepped up & convinced Biden to step aside. Or it will be remembered as the night Trump solidified his path back to the White House.

— Michael Smerconish (@smerconish) June 28, 2024I love Joe Biden. I know he’s a good man. I know his heart is good. I know he’s dedicated to our country and is surrounded by good people. Tonight was heartbreaking in many ways. This is a big political moment. There’s panic in the Democratic party. It’s going to be a long night.
