About Sandra Bullock

Known for: Starring in 'Speed' and 'The Blind Side', for which she won the 2010 Oscar for Best Actress.

Sandra Bullock is an outstanding, Oscar-winning actress for 'The Blind Side.' Sandra's high from winning the Oscar didn't last very long, though. When news exploded on March 17, 2010 that her husband, custom motorcycle creator, Jesse James, had cheated on her with a tattooed model and stripper named Michelle Bombshell McGee.

As a result of her husband's infidelity, Sandra didn't show up at the London premier of 'The Blind Side' and issued the following statement: Due to unforeseen personal reasons, a trip abroad to support 'The Blind Side' has been deemed impossible at this time. I apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused and thank you for your continued support of the film.

On April 28, 2010 Sandra revealed to People Magazine that she was raising an adopted son, Louis Bardo Bullock, alone after filing for divorce from Jesse. The couple had brought the baby home in January 2010 but wanted to keep it quiet until all the Oscar hubbub was over. Little did they know that the Oscar media noise would be totally dwarfed by Jesse's cheating scandal.

Sandra rose to fame in the early 1990s and is known for her roles in hit movies such as 'Speed', 'While You Were Sleeping', 'Miss Congeniality', and 'The Proposal'. She also topped the list in 2007 as the 14th richest female celebrity.

Although she is an American actress, Bullock's mother, Helga D. Meyer, was a German Opera singer. She lived in Germany and other European countries as a child and now, as an adult, speaks fluent German. Although Bullock attended college, she left during her senior year just a few credits short of graduation to follow her dream of acting. She eventually completed her coursework at East Carolina University and is not only a successful actress, but a college graduate.

Bullock is more than an accomplished, award-winning actress. She is also an entrepreneur and owns a production company, Fortis Films, as well as a restaurant, Bess Bistro, in Austin, Texas. Additionally, she opened a floral and bakery shop in Austin that also focuses on event planning.

She became a bride for the first time in 2005 at the age of 41. She married Jesse James, a motorcycle builder and host of 'Monster Garage'. Bullock doesn't have any biological children, but she is step-mother to his three children, two girls and a boy. Bullock is known for her love of dogs and has a two-legged chihuahua, Ruby, and three-legged pup, Poppy. Beyond caring for her family, she is also an avid supporter of charities and has been known on multiple occasions to donate up to $1 million dollars at a time to particular causes.

In 2010 her divorce from Jesse James became final and she was listed as the highest paid actress in Hollywood by Forbes magazine. Between June 2009 and June 2010, Bullock, 46, raked in $56 million from her box office hits The Blind Side and The Proposal.

Sandra Bullock was nominated for a 2010 Kids Choice Award in the category of Favorite Movie Actress.
