OHMYGOSSIP — Sharon Stone is crushing on Gerard Butler! The 55-year-old is hot on the hunky Scottish actor’s tail after the two hit it off Nov. 7 at a Los Angeles party, reports the National Enquirer.

“Sharon has a major crush on Gerard, and she’s pulling out all the stops to snare him in her web,” revealed a close source.

“They giggled and held hands at the party after Gerard made the first move by compli­menting Sharon on her acting in Basic Instinct, telling her the interrogation scene was the sexiest movie shot ever filmed.”

“Sharon doesn’t want to be Gerard’s girlfriend – she just wants a fun fling in a ‘friends with benefits’ sort of way.

“She’s had a crush on him ever since (his 2004 movie) ‘Phantom of the Opera.’”

Although Gerard is still involved with his on/off girlfriend, model Madalina Ghenea, Sharon appears up for the challenge: “Having a younger hunk lusting after her is the best self-esteem boost in the world.”
