She has posed for anti-fur advertisements by PETA, [76] and also filmed a public service announcement on downed farm animals for Farm Sanctuary. [77] She was involved in the creation of a bill offering protection to diseased and crippled farm animals, which Governor of California Pete Wilson signed. [78] Basinger was interviewed by Samaritan magazine in August 2018 to raise awareness about the inhumane dog meat trade that remains rife in parts of Asia. BASINGER: Pale-pink shirts. My God, he looks beautiful on Friday night. But Don was always cute to me. "Miami Vice" has changed his image, but there was always something very pleasantly humorous about him, and he amused himself through the tough years, because he had this sense that it was just a matter of time... But that waiting can really be a bitch.

Bradshaw, Peter (July 16, 2009). "Film review: The Informers". The Guardian – via www.theguardian.com.BASINGER: [Laughs] Oh, my God. When I was in the, uh, most vulnerable position, my gynecologist said, "Boy, were you mean to Roy Hobbs." Can you believe that? What a hell of a place to be when this guy is getting so involved in "The Natural." I couldn't believe it.

Starting in the mid-1990s, Basinger was estranged from her mother, Ann, and all but one of her four siblings.

[74] Basinger was still estranged from her mother as of 2002. [75] However, they appeared to have reconciled by 2015, when Ann told RadarOnline in an exclusive interview that Kim would be coming home to Georgia for Christmas. [67] Activism edit BASINGER: When I cook, it’s such a joke that everyone says, "Why don't we just go to the Mexican restaurant?" If I had a specialty, it would be fettuccine made with red pepper and vodka. A guy at Orsini's restaurant taught me. The secret is putting the hot Italian peppers in the vodka and letting it all age for a month or two. Basinger is an alumna of the William Esper Studio for the performing arts in Manhattan, New York City. [13] Career edit Early roles (1976–1982) edit Basinger as Officer J.Z.

It's a very scary thing to have someone discover who you are before you discover who you are—and then have him tell you about yourself before you are able to let it sink in. It's almost like watching a bus hit someone before it happens and then have it happen three seconds later. It's more than seeing the future. It's somebody else seeing your future.Davis, Ruth (September 23, 1996). "A Man, a Plan, a Town". Newyorkmetro.com. New York Magazine: 24. ISSN 0028-7369 . Retrieved August 11, 2012.

Basinger starred as the wife of a children's book author, with Jeff Bridges and Jon Foster, in The Door in the Floor (2004), a drama with heavy sexual themes adapted from the novel A Widow for One Year by John Irving. The film found a limited audience in theaters, but in his review, Peter Travers of Rolling Stone, felt that "Basinger's haunted beauty burns in the memory" and called it "her finest work". [31]
