Even celebrities sometimes have trouble finding a date.

Award-winning actress Sharon Stone, best known for starring in “Basic Instinct” in 1992, got bumped from dating app Bumble after users thought her account was fake.

But turns out it was actually her.

Stone shared on her official Twitter page Monday that her account was closed and she plea, “Don’t shut me out of the hive.”

Bumble replied to her post a few hours later and restored her account.

“Trust us, we definitely want you on the Hive,” said Bumble’s editorial director Clare O’Connor, according to BBC.

Stone, 61, who grew in Meadville, Crawford County, has been married twice - first to the producer Michael Greenburg and then the journalist Phil Bronstein.
