The 50-year-old actress had said some inappropriate remarks at the 2008 Cannes Film Festival about the devastating quake that shook China on May 12th, 2008. Sharon said that it was karma that the quake hit China for the way the Chinese government treated the Tibetans. Needless to say that the Chinese found this offensive and refuse to show anything that featured the actress. This affected Christian Dior who Sharon is modeling for. The office in Shanghai for Dior issued a statement where Sharon will no longer be shown in any advertisement in China.

Sharon has now apologized for the remarks she made during her interview at Cannes. The statement was released by Dior and stated that Sharon will help with the relief efforts. Here is what The Telegraph reported:

"Due to my inappropriate words and acts during the interview, I feel deeply sorry and sad about hurting Chinese people. I am willing to take part in the relief work of China's earthquake, and wholly devote myself to helping affected Chinese people"

She should of never said those things in the first place. In my opinion it's just wrong. It's fine speaking your mind but sometimes you have to know when to say it and when not to.
