Sharon Stone is being sued by a former nanny who claims the actress insulted her Filipino heritage and fired her after discovering she had been paid overtime.
The woman (Erlinda T. Elemen) filed the lawsuit seeking unspecified damages on Wednesday, 15 months after she was fired. She says she worked for Stone for more than four years and was promoted to head nanny, but was fired after the actress demanded she return overtime payments.
The woman claims Stone’s accountants made the overtime payments because the nanny worked on vacations and holidays, but Stone did not approve. She claims the actress insulted her accent and also denigrated her religious beliefs.
