Sandra Tells All to “People”

If there’s one thing that could take the attention away from People’s Most Beautiful list, it’s Sandra Bullock’s cover story. After keeping mum about her estranged husband’s cheating scandals, Sandra is finally breaking her silence for an exclusive cover story with People.

The cover photo shows the actress in happier spirits with her adopted baby boy, Louis Bardo, who was born in New Orleans. In the story, you’ll find out how the baby’s arrival may actually be the ultimate medicine to ease Sandra’s heartache.

According to People, Sandra and Jesse began the adoption process four years ago. They finally took Louis home in January, but Sandra’s family and close friends decided to keep it a secret until the Oscar Awards was over. However, their plans of announcing the baby were put on hold because Jesse’s cheating scandals exploded in the media in March. What a way to dampen Sandra’s Oscar win.

Sandra’s fans need not to worry about her anymore. She’s ready to put the past behind her with a more positive attitude. Not only is she finally filing for divorce, she is also finalizing the adoption as a single parent.

Check out People’s latest issue for a more in-depth interview with Sandra, as well as photos of her baby.

Sandra Was Broody All Along


Sandra Bullock’s decision to adopt a baby didn’t spring from her separation from Jesse James, as many of you have speculated. Turns out she has been broody all this time.

When she was a guest on The Ellen DeGeneres Show in November, she praised people who have decided to adopt. “Just because a child didn’t come from inside your body, doesn’t mean it’s not your child,” Sandra said. “It just arrived [from] somewhere else. The thing that affected me the most profoundly was: When people think of adopting a child—oh I want a brand new little baby—there are so many children that are just dying and waiting to be loved and give you back love a thousand times more than what you can ever give them.”

Sandra and her husband Jesse James began the adoption process about four years ago. They brought home the 3½-month old baby named Louis Bardo in January, but Sandra’s family and close friends decided to keep the adoption under wraps until after the Oscars.

Unfortunately, things didn’t go according to plan. The couple wasn’t able to announce the baby after Sandra’s March 10 Oscar win, because Jesse’s cheating scandals surfaced. The two are now separated, and Sandra is filing for divorce.

The good news is: Sandra has motherhood to look forward to. In a bid to move on from the scandals, Sandra is finalizing the adoption as a single mom.

We wish you all the best, Sandy!

Mistress #2 Writes to Sandra


I don’t know what’s worse—Jesse James repeatedly lying and cheating on his wife Sandra Bullock, or one of Jesse’s mistresses writing a letter to Sandra.

TMZ has obtained a copy of the letter that Melissa Smith, Jesse’s mistress #2, faxed to Sandra’s agent on Sunday.

She apologized and wrote, “I felt I needed to reach out to you and tell you how deeply sorry I am for everything that you've been through.” Other highlights of the letter include:

“I am sorry for any hurt or pain that I have caused you. My actions of engaging with a married man are unforgivable.”

“I compromised my beliefs on several occasions and as a result will never forgive myself.”

“Please contact me if you wish to discuss on the phone or in person.”

LMAO!

Yes, Melissa, I’m sure Sandra is dying to fax or write you back so you could become penpals and have girly lunches together.

First Post-Breakup Photos of Sandra Bullock Surface Online


Sandra Bullock post breakup photos

Sandra Bullock has been photographed for the first time since the news of her husband, Jesse James lurid affairs were made public, and it's not hard to tell the 46 year old has been under a tremendous amount of stress.

UsMagazine acquired the photos (embedded below) and hired a body language expert to to analyze them. Patti Wood says:

"She is gripping the coffee cup very high up," notes Wood. "That's what you do when you really want to grab a hold of something and show your power. She's really making it obvious and playing toward the camera to show that empty finger."

Bullock also is wearing a black North Face jacket, black ball cap and scarf around her neck.

"She's chosen a heavily padded jacket and has it zipped up very high," observes Wood. "The choice of her scarf, which is tied over heart, means that she is hiding her heart window and throat window, which is the communication window."

Sandra was photographed in Northern California and was not wearing her wedding band at the time.

Sandra Bullock: Oh, The Irony!

Oh, Sandy! The 45-year-old actress was honored and dishonored in the same weekend. She took home the Worst Actress trophy for her movie All About Steve at the Golden Raspberry Awards on Saturday, March 6th, a day before bagging the Best Actress award at the Oscars for her role in The Blind Side.

At the Razzies, Sandra was given a standing ovation when she picked up her award; she was the first Worst Actress recipient to actually attend the show since Halle Berry was shamed for her role in 2005’s Catwoman.

The good-humored actress was armed with a box of All About Steve DVDs, as she told the crowd they all need to watch her performance again because she’s not convinced she deserves the dishonor. She got another trophy that night for Worst Screen Couple with her co-star Bradley Cooper.

The Oscars was a different story. In her Best Actress acceptance speech, she paid tribute to the other nominees—Gabby Sidibe, Carey Mulligan, Helen Mirren, and Meryl Streep. She also gave an emotional tribute to her late mother, Helga Bullock. View the full transcript of her speech here.

Congratulations, Sandy—for both awards!

I’m getting quite tired of the predictable jewel tones and monochrome gowns that the stars usually wear to awards shows and red carpet events. For last Saturday’s SAG Awards, my picks for best dressed were the stars who donned prints and beads.

16th Annual Screen Actors Guild Awards - Arrivals
True Blood’s Anna Paquin strayed away from the dark side with her printed Alexander McQueen dress.

The 16th Annual Screen Actors Guild Awards in LA
Award presenter Michelle Monaghan sparkled in a one-shoulder gun metal, beaded Calvin Klein gown.

Although I love Meryl Streep’s belted printed gown, I’d do without those sunglasses.

16th Annual Screen Actors Guild Awards - Show
Nicole Kidman (third from left) took a break from her usual monochrome red carpet gowns and slipped into a sequined and embroidered Oscar de la Renta gown. Here, she is onstage with fellow actresses (L-R) Marion Cotillard, Kate Hudson, and Penelope Cruz.

16th Annual Screen Actors Guild Awards - Press Room
Sandra Bullock not only won Outstanding Performance by a Female Actor in a Leading Role for The Blind Side, but also got the fashion police’s nod in this black and blue-trimmed Alexander McQueen gown.

Sandra Bullock was the Comeback of the Year

Sandra Bullock

When trying to figure out the comeback star of the year it was pretty easy. Sandra Bullock, who is 45 and still looking suhweet, starred in a couple of blockbusters after having a couple of flops previously. I mean did anyone see The Blind Side doing this well? I sure didn’t. It’s on pace to do over 200M+ domestically for a film that doesn’t tell the real story of a football player. I mean the story is pretty much fake. Yeah I said it, fake.

The football guy it is supposed to be about has been playing football since 6th grade, not high school. Does that matter to these writers? Nope. They could learn a thing or two from Celebrific about sticking to the facts and only presenting what is real to people. You don’t see any of us writing down fantasies just to increase our revenues. We don’t do that kind of stuff here because we believe the truth wins in the end.

The picture of Sandra above is a private one that I had for a number of years. I took it when she first saw me. I’m not surprised by her reaction, but I must admit this is the first time I was able to capture a woman ripping off their shirt when they see me. They usually do it so fast that I am unable to capture the moment, but I was on my toes for this one. I liked that shirt, shame she had to waste it, but at least some good came out of it.

I hate having to get up to get a towel.

Sandra Bullock, hubby in car accident

Sandra Bullock’s career was partly catapulted by her role in Speed, but she’d probably like to keep those high-impact crashes on the Hollywood set.

She and her husband Jesse James,were hit by a drunk driver whose gray Subaru station wagon jumped lanes and smashed into their car. Luckily neither of them were hurt. “They were shaken up, needless to say,” said Gloucester Police Lt. Gerry Cook. “but he was hugging her. They said they were fine, they didn’t need medical attention.”

When the drunk driver was told who she hit, she started laughing.

Sunday night was probably filed under ‘worst night eva’ for Sandra Bullock & her motorcycle enthusiast hubby Jesse James.  Late Sunday evening, a fan of James’ almost killed him after an attack at the couple’s home in Orange County.

Police are revealing that Bullock & James’ 10-year-old child, could only look on as Marcia Valentine ”attempted 3 or 4 times to run Jesse James over with her silver Mercedes.”  Thankfully, Jesse was never hit by the vehicle.

The cops are also stating that Valentine also ”laid in the driveway and wouldn’t move.”

The Orange County sheriff’s department responded to the scene, but Valentine had left before they arrived.  Shortly after the incident, Marcia was located & is now being held on suspicion of assault with a deadly weapon, death by Mercedes I assume.

Bullock & James’ rep just recently stated, ”The incident did occur. Both Jesse James and Sandra Bullock are fine and it is now in the hands of the authorities.”

Jeez, talk about a ‘I”m your number one fan’ kinda thing.
