Sandra's career is once again on a high thanks to box office hit The Blind Side in which Sandra puts in a wonderful dramatic performance.

Miss Bullock won a well deserved Oscar for her great acting in The Blind Side.

Sandra was thirty years old when her movie career took off with the 1994 sleeper hit Speed.

She followed up her part in Speed with roles in While You Were Sleeping, The Net and A Time To Kill. She also made a few misfires such as the sequel to Speed that Keanu Reeves turned down and Sandra later admitted was a mistake to make.

Her star sign is Leo.

Her performance in Miss Congeniality ensured her star status and she would re-unite with her Speed co-star in The Lake House.  To this day Sandra remains good friends with Keanu.

Sandra was a cheerleader in high school and can speak fluent German.

She enjoys drinking Heineken which most people will tell you tastes like piss.

Known to be very generous Sandra donated $1m dollars after the Haiti earthquake disaster.

I'm going, One Mississippi, two Mississippi, three and break. It's like choreography. Sometimes you have actors who feel it's their job to get as far down into your throat as possible. You're like, Excuse me, I like you, but not that much.

Everyone told me to pass on Speed because it was a bus movie.

On Speed 2: Cruise Control. That was a mistake but, in retrospect, how are you supposed to know?

I don't like to talk about personal things. And by keeping it private, you have a better shot at a healthy relationship. I learned at a young age that there are certain things you just don't talk about.

Why do you need one? I don't understand why there needs to be a love interest to make women go see a film. I think society sort of makes us feel that way – that if you don't have a guy, you're worthless.
