Sandra Bullock has spent much of the year being a hot mess on various red carpets. No, actually, she was just a wreck on one red carpet, but once was bad enough. So it?s nice to see Sandra pull it together for the premiere of The Blind Side, which comes out this Friday. Look at her, she got it right! Good dress, good hair, maybe the earrings are a little too big, but I?ll accept them. Great shoes, and most importantly, Sandra?s not standing like a truck driver! Hurray!
The Blind Side is getting solid reviews, with many critics singling out Sandra?s portrayal of the very real Leigh Anne Tuohy, who adopted a homeless kid, who later became a star football player. Here?s Us Weekly?s review of the film:
Sandra Bullock shows a new sense of maturity and confidence in this uplifting heart-tugger that’s based on real events. She plays Leigh Anne Tuohy, a wealthy Memphis, Tennessee, interior decorator and mother of two who adopts a homeless high-schooler, Michael Oher (Quinton Aaron), when he enrolls at her kids’ parochial school.
Along with her supportive husband, Sean (a lovely ? and unrecognizable! — Tim McGraw), she nurtures the gentle giant from the wrong side of town all the way to an Ole Miss football scholarship and the NFL.
Bullock’s churchloving, hardworking, cashmere-wearing heroine exemplifies the idea that charity begins at home ? and the actress comes across as a real, passionate, take-noprisoners woman.
While the drama?s script is a little formulaic (yes, Oher helps his team win the big game and, yes, joining the Tuohy family helps him get his life together), its message still inspires.

Sandra has been out promoting the film for several weeks - many noted her funny interview in Parade, where Sandy noted that ?I?m aware I can be annoying.? Sandra also sat down with Matt Lauer on The Today Show yesterday, and discussed football, mother/son stories, and how wig looks just like Kathie Lee Gifford?s ?real? hair. Kathie actually made a great joke about that, when Sandra said ?but that?s her real hair? Kathie quipped, ?not really?. Here?s the interview:

Tending to her all-important promotional duties, Sandra Bullock paid a visit to the “Today” show in New York City on Tuesday (November 17).
Spotted returning to her hotel upon finishing her interview, Miss Bullock is in town to promote her new film “The Blind Side”.
“The Blind Side” is a movie about NFL lineman Michael Oher, who went from homeless to a professional football player.
And supporting Oher through thick and thin was Leigh Anne Tuoh, who was a southern belle who took charge while being a mother and took Oher into her family.
Sandra Bullock has the honor of playing the woman who changed Oher’s life.
“I felt a great sense of fear in trying to tackle that person,” Bullock said as Tuohy sat next to her at a press conference at the Four Seasons Hotel in Los Angeles. “You don’t meet an energy like Leigh Anne’s ever.”
Bullock also went blonde for the look of Leigh Anne, but her family didn’t love it.
“I like blond highlights, but there is a very important person in my life,” she said of James, who “just didn’t want me being blond, thank God.”
She smiled, “There was a little person who thought I looked like an angel. Then there is a big person who said, ‘I don’t like the blond on you, take it off.’ You want him to say that. You do.”

Yesterday former pr0n star Janine Lindemulder ? ex-wife of Jesse James ? went on TV and begged his wife Sandra Bullock to sit down and talk with her about their custody case of Lindemulder and James? five-year-old daughter Sunny. Lindemulder, aside from being a pr0n star ? has just gotten out of jail after serving a six month sentence for tax evasion. She also has a long drug problem, and her new husband has a lengthy criminal record.
Jesse and Sandra have been trying to keep Sunny away from Janine, for obvious fears about her safety. They believe it?s best Sunny live with them full-time. Janine seemed genuinely contrite and desperate to see her daughter. But that?s what?s in her own best interests, not necessarily Sunny?s. Today James? lawyer responded to Lindemulder, and basically told her not to play her case out for the press and to leave Sandra out of it.
Jesse James has a message for his ex: Leave my wife Sandra Bullock out of the custody dispute.
The Monster Garage star’s former wife, [pr0n] star Janine Lindemulder, suggested on Good Morning America this week that Bullock was trying to “take away my daughter” and called on the superstar actress to talk with her directly.
James’s attorney Marilyn Slifman calls Lindemulder’s remarks “inaccurate and unfortunate.”
“Sandra Bullock is not a party to this litigation,” Slifman says in a statement to PEOPLE. “Mr. James’s sole concern is for the safety, welfare and best interests of his daughter. The proper forum to resolve this case is in the courtroom.”
Bullock has been helping James raise 5-year-old Sunny since January, when Lindemulder, who has appeared in more than 100 adult movies, was imprisoned for tax evasion. Bullock and James wrote letters to the court questioning her fitness as a parent and raising concerns about the safety of Sunny because of Lindemulder’s alleged drug problem. Lindemulder has since been released from prison and is tangling with James over visitation.
[From People]
Obviously Jesse is the biological parent, and if Lindemulder?s going to go on television and make custody pleas, she should be directing them towards him. Instead it was mostly at Sandra. Probably because Sandra?s more famous, and she?d get more press that way. To her credit, Lindemulder didn?t act as though Sandra was trying to rip Sunny away from a great mother. And I think she was generally very respectful ? but this is about a little kid and it definitely shouldn?t be played out on morning television. To me it?s not about the mother?s rights or the father?s rights. It?s about who will provide Sunny with the most stable and safe home. Some monitored visitation would be a nice step forward though.

America’s favorite sweetheart Sandra Bullock is in a custody battle.
The actress’s husband, Jesse James, is in a custody fight with his ex-wife, porn star Janine Lindemulder, for their five-year old child.
Court documents state that Bullock and James are accusing Lindemulder of being an unsuitable mother who is married to a felon and falls asleep after drug binges.
40 year-old Lindemulder appeared in over 100 adult movies and has been released from jail recently for tax evasion.
In a recent interview, she claims she is a changed person.
“I am the best mother I can be. Yes, I have absolutely made horrific choices in the past. I’ve had my share of drugs. But then there’s a huge portion of my life, a 10-year span, where there’s nothing - I didn’t need it.”
In a letter to the judge at her sentencing, Bullock regards her concerns for the daughter’s life.
“I myself have stopped working like I used to in order to be here with Jesse and the kids because we are on constant high alert,” Bullock wrote. “Never knowing what condition Janine will be in, and even more concerning, the condition [the girl] will be in. I know the term ‘stepmother’ carries many connotations, one of them being ‘glorified babysitter. My commitment and responsibility to [the girl] ... goes beyond that.”
Bullock and James have received a temporary order of full custody over the little girl when Lindemulder did her six-month sentence, but the couple wants to make it permanent.
Lindemulder, however, is not giving up.
“What would give her the right to take away my daughter?” Lindemulder asks about the actress. “Sandy doesn’t know what goes on in my house. I’d love for her to. Please come over, you know, I’ll make dinner, you know, let’s sit down, [as] two women.”

Things are going great in her professional life as well as her marriage to husband Jesse James, but Sandra Bullock is dealing with some drama surrounding James’ ex-wife, porn star Janine Lindemulder.
According to a report, the “Proposal” actress is being dragged into a legal battle between Jesse and Janine over their 5-year-old daughter Sunny.
James has asked the court to determine whether or not Janine is a fit mother, as he’s hoping to get full custody of his daughter for himself and Bullock.
He told the court, “Good cause exists for the court to conduct a review to determine if [Sunny] will be safe with [Lindemulder]. She should be restrained from allowing the child around pornographers, drug addicts, guns and firearms, felons and other unsafe environments.”
As for having her own kids, Sandra told press, “I may never hear that word ‘mom’. But being a parent is not about breeding. It’s about caring. And it’s easy to say, but it’s harder to do. When you don’t have that title, you flounder and it hurts. But this is the best test of being a parent. And I just have to keep reminding myself I don’t care what I get. I care what I give.”

| | Sandra Bullock's message to girls: be unique, don't try to fit in | | Added 14 years ago | Source: CeleBitchy |

I?m doing this one because I know Sandra Bullock is beloved in many quarters around here. Sandra is doing a few interviews to promote the DVD release of The Proposal, her hit summer film with Ryan Reynolds and Bette White. While Sandy was talking to Fox News’ Pop Tarts, she was asked about the message of her other summer film All About Steve (costarring Bradley Cooper), which bombed at the box office.
Sandra has talked about the ?message? of All About Steve before, using very similar language. So similar, I think Fox News has combined some old quotes from Sandy?s interview with Parade a few months ago with a new interview. In Parade, Sandra told the interviewer: ?Why is it that men are called ?unique? and ?eccentric? and ?mavericks? when they?re different, but women are labeled as ?odd? or just plain ?weird?? It?s about being unconventional and being true to who you are. Not fitting in often means you?re really standing out. If I can do anything in this time of my career, it?s to make it easier for girls who are growing up not to feel they have to wind up with someone to complete them. You know, I complete me. I?m just lucky that after I completed myself, I met someone who could tolerate me.? Sandra had some new stuff to say to Fox, you just have to get through the older quotes:
Sandra Bullock played the sexually pent-up, over-informed nerd Mary in the comedy “All About Steve,” and the experience of being ridiculed onscreen made her remember her own childhood difficulties.
“Why is that young boys and men are unique and eccentric and mavericks when they’re different but women are ?odd? when we are eccentric or different? Would I have wished someone would have said to me when I was 12 or eight when I had my speech impediment? Uniqueness is something my mother pounded it into me,” Bullock recently told Tarts. “She said be unique and I didn?t understand it then, now I look at it and I go I wouldn?t want to be like anyone else and I know I?m off. I had a lisp as a child, it?s all these things that made me different and I tried to squelch and then once I realized I had squelched them I didn?t feel like myself anymore.”
Bullock is so upset with the unwritten rules and regulations in today?s world she wants to spread a strong message to young girls.
“Don?t change, be who you are. Society is really strong in their opinions so I made peace with the fact that the things I thought were weaknesses or flaws were just me,” she added.
“Why are we forcing people to follow another person?s path in life taking away their real happiness? What is about us that is a culture that tries to get rid of what we consider the runt? Sometimes the runt turns out to be the best of the litter.”
Meanwhile Bullock?s co-star, man-of-the-moment Bradley Cooper, played coy when it came to questions about his personal life and romantic affiliations with the likes of Jennifer Aniston and Renee Zellweger.
“My imaginary personal life,” Cooper said. “There is a lot other worse things that could be happening than (the press) talking about stuff like that.”
Bullock, on the other hand, was quick to reveal what it is that has Hollywood hotties falling at their feet for Mr. Cooper.
“Innocent yet not. There is a real innocence to Bradley and a kindness. He is a girls’ guy and a guy’s guy,” she said. “He will come hang out with all of us girls. Then you forget he is there as a guy. Not in a bad way, in a very good way. He is very attractive to the ladies it’s a nice balance to have. No wonder all the girls are crazy about him.”
[From Fox News Pop Tarts]
Aw, I had a little lisp when I was a kid too. It still comes out when I?m drunk, tired or excited and not paying attention. Just some softening of the ?S?. She sells seashells by the seashore. That was my Iwo Jima, that one. I also had problems with ?hiss?. Or, as I used to say it, ?hith?. Anyway, I totally love what Sandra is saying, and I hope more parents do teach their little girls that it?s totally cool and great to be unique and weird and special and say ?hith? damn it.

It?s no secret that Sandra Bullock and Ryan Reynolds are friends. The two have apparently known each other for years - but they also starred together in this year?s hit film The Proposal. I know some people just adore both of them, or just Sandra, or whatever, but I didn?t care for that particular publicity tour. It sometimes seemed like Sandra and Ryan were trying to out-smug each other during joint interviews - and I know Sandra isn?t really like that, so I?ll just blame Ryan. In one particular interview, Ryan and Sandra praised each other?s marriage, with Ryan telling Sandra ?I love that your marriage ? and forgive the ineloquence here ? is not for sale.? To which Sandra replied, ?We?re very similar in that way.?
Sandra?s marriage might be in good standing - but there have been quite a few rumors about Ryan and his wife Scarlett Johansson the past few months. They?ve allegedly been fighting about everything from her career (something about how she works too much) to all of the fanboys falling all over themselves for her, to babies, to Ryan?s ex-girlfriend Alanis Morissette?s tell-all book, to all of those rumors that Ryan is really, really unpleasant in person. According to multiple reports, ScarJo and Ryan got into some kind of huge screaming fight just before Comic Con, which ?caused such a rift between them that Ryan refused to attend the conference and he told Scarlett she could go alone. She got so angry she threatened to take off her wedding band.? After the drama settled, it seemed Ryan turned to his good friend Sandy for some marriage counseling:
Sandra Bullock has gone from ?Miss Congeniality? to marriage counselor.,, she is helping Ryan Reynolds save his rocky marriage to Scarlett Johansson, say sources.
?Ryan and Scarlett have been going through a rough patch,? revealed an insider. ?Sandra is helping them weather it. She told them that every marriage has its problems - hers included. But she says they can get through it if they?re willing to put the time and effort into making things work, even if it means going to couples counseling.?
Scarlett, 24, was upset because of Ryan?s motorcycle riding, which she considers too risky. Then his former fiance, singer Alanis Morissette, threatened to write a tell-all book.
The couple, who were married in Vancouver last September, reportedly had a major blowup in San Diego.
Sandra - an old friend of Ryan?s - saw what happening and stepped in to provide some wise relationship advice.
?No one knows better than Sandra how to juggle marriage with a Hollywood career,? said the insider. ?Her relationship with Jesse James has been solid since they got hitched more than four years ago.?
?Because Sandra and Jesse seemed so different, no one gave their union much hope for lasting as long as it has. Sandra told Ryan the most important thing is that he and Scarlett need to make time for one another, even though they both have busy schedules.?
?She told him, ?There is no substitute for togetherness.? Sandra pointed out that she and Jesse take quick vacations together - just hopping on the back of his bike and hitting the road.?
Ryan listens to Sandra, says the insider, because ?he has tremendous respect for her as a person and an actress.?
[From the National Enquirer, print edition, September 14 2009]
I know a lot of people like Scarlett and Ryan as a couple - even my mom likes them, for goodness sake - but I really don?t think it?s going to last. Maybe I?m way off-base, and I totally admit I?ve read some relationships incorrectly in the past. But I just don?t get a happy vibe off Ryan and ScarJo. I think he seems like he would be a massive pain in the ass as a husband, and ScarJo seems like her top priority is her career (which is fine, in my book - she?s 24 years old, if she wants to work, she should work). It won?t really matter if Sandra brings her magic touch - not even The Bullock can save this union.

Sandra Bullock has never been any kind of fashion icon. I think that?s part of the reason women love her - she usually gets something wrong on the red carpet. She?ll put on a beautiful dress, and her hair will be crazy. Or she?ll pair some low-key, romantic dress with rocker-chick, too-heavy makeup. Or she tries to be ?high-fashion? and she just looks ridiculous. Which is what happened at last night?s All About Steve premiere in Hollywood. Take a good look at everything that?s going wrong with Sandra. It?s not just a horrible-looking (and what seems to be a horribly-constructed) dress. It?s the ankle booties that cut off the line of her beautiful, toned legs. It?s the screwed up, too-messy-to-be-classy/not-messy-enough-to-be-high-fashion hair. The topping on the cupcake is that in most of the pictures from last night, Sandra Bullock is posing like a truck driver. She?s such a hot mess, I can?t stop giggling. Bless her heart. She?s one of us.
Of course Bradley Cooper was at the premiere too - but he didn?t bring his new (squinty) girlfriend Renee Zellweger. He walked the carpet solo, when he wasn?t posing with his truck-driver-stanced costar Sandy. He looked incredibly dashing in a dark charcoal three-piece suit with no tie, working slicked-back (greasy?) hair and a little stubble on his face. His look is actually doing it for me, even if he looks more ?stock broker? than ?Hollywood?. Bullock told Radar Online at the premiere that as a producer on the film, she hand-picked Bradley to star with her, saying ?It was important for me to get the actor that I wanted, which was Bradley, which was before The Hangover. So I wanted Bradley the actor who I loved from Wedding Crashers.? She also joked that she kept her figure looking so good with ?Lipo - lots of it - tons of liposuction!?
I keep seeing the ads for this movie, but Bradley and Sandra haven?t been promoting the hell out it with tons of interviews. The only big one I could find from Bullock was this one from Parade. Here are some of the highlights:
On Stalking: “How else do you get dates? I learned that you have to stalk and then make it look very innocent. Then once you get them you sort of shred receipts and you do things that sort of cover the paper trail of your stalking. I think it’s a necessary evil to sort of lure in your prey.”
On the sexism of labeling women ?weird?: “I didn’t want [my All About Steve character] Mary to change. I wanted her to continue being who she was and being okay with it. She didn’t think she was flawed. Society made her feel flawed and question how she lived her life. And let’s not ignore sexism. Why is it that men are called ‘unique’ and ‘eccentric’ and ‘mavericks’ when they’re different, but women are labeled as ‘odd’ or just plain ‘weird?’ It’s about being unconventional and being true to who you are. Not fitting in often means you’re really standing out.”
On the message of rom-coms, and reflections on her career: “If I can do anything in this time of my career, it’s to make it easier for girls who are growing up not to feel they have to wind up with someone to complete them. You know, I complete me. I’m just lucky that after I completed myself, I met someone who could tolerate me. I love good romantic comedies, but there’s more to life than just looking for the right guy.”
[From Parade]
There is more to life that looking for the right guy. So why keep making movie after movie about that very thing? Although I will Bullock credit - she infuses many of her romantic comedies with a heavy vein of genuine feminism. Unfortunately, most romantic comedies aren?t produced by Sandy.

She’s no stranger to big movie events and last night (August 26) Sandra Bullock was all smiles at the premiere of “All About Steve.”
The “Miss Congeniality” actress looked lovely as she arrived at Grauman’s Chinese Theatre in Hollywood sporting a red and purple top with a black skirt and black heels.
And there wasn’t any shortage of man candy either- costars Bradley Cooper and Thomas Hayden Church were both in the house for the big shindig as well.
“All About Steve” is about a woman who is convinced that a CNN cameraman is her true love. An eccentric crossword puzzler, she trails him as he travels all over the country, hoping to convince him that they belong together. It hits theaters September 4th.
