Sound off: Sandra Bullock/Divorce/Adoption
Re: Sound off: Sandra Bullock/Divorce/Adoption
First of all, I am totally shocked that they adopted a baby in January and manged to keep it a secret. Between his kids, all the media attention from her Oscar and their issues, and that someone sometime must have spotted this baby! Amazing!
Secondly, I'm glad she's divorcing his sleazy ass.
Thirdly (is that a word?), she has handled this with so much grace, and I really respect her for that.
"My whole life has been full of hard decisions. The decision to let my wife end our marriage, and continue the adoption of Louis on her own, has been the hardest."
His "reaction" makes me so angry. Hard decisions? Was it a hard decision to cheat on your wife (many times)? Was it a hard decision to unfairly go forward with an adoption knowing you weren't faithful? He's letting her end the marriage? I don't think you have any choice in that matter, buddy!
I'm happy for her for moving forward and doing what makes her happy. I hope her and her little boy come back to Austin.
P.S. I've always been an OCC girl and anti-WCC and I'm even more glad for it now.

Ugh, I didn't even read his response, and now I'm really glad I didn't!
Interesting--the People article stated it didn't know what jurisdiction she filed for divorce in. I assumed it would be Cali since that's where the marriage took place. According to the Statesman, she filed in Austin! Weird...
ETA: And that little article totally made me forget my entire purpose of going on the web site...to look at jobs! lol

if I remember correctly, they got married in TX.
Total respect for Sandra! I hope they come back here too!
I wonder if she'd get any benefit to filing in Texas over California. Hmm.
You're supposed to file where you've resided for the last 6 months. She must be claiming Austin as her permanent residence even though they live in Cali.

Oddly enough, I worked at the BCM location of Fox Photo when that was going down. The builder guy came to my store and had several rolls of film developed and I mentioned to him that it looked like a big house in the pics. Then he got all worked up and was asking me (accosting) what I thought of it, telling me he was in a lawsuit over it blah blah. He never said it was w/ Sandra but I realized it later when I saw the pics of the house in People mag. Ah, my brush with fame.
You are totally going to be my 6 Degrees to Kevin Bacon from now on!
Not to try to one-up joyco (even though I totally am) but I was in a scene with her in Miss Congeniality!
That reminds me, I need to get a screen shot of that one of these days...

Uh, yes please!
Not to one up AustinBride (but totally am, hee), John Travolta came into my store and had some pics from "Michael" developed. My husband actually did them for him. They did that scene at Gruene Hall and those are the pics that he developed.
And I sold a camera to Earl Campbell. So, nanny nanny boo boo.
Alright, FINE!
I worked for the lawyer who repped Matthew Machoney. The first time he called, I totally thought it was a prank call, refused to put him thorugh, and took a message. He laughed the whole time. Thankfully one of the other lawyers saw my, "MM called, YEAH RIGHT" note and said, "Oh no! That was really him. Always put him through!" I saw him once. He only came in after hours, and I was still in the parking lot when he arrived
I don't think he's cute AT ALL, so I'm not impressed.
I saw Matthew Broderick in NYC when I was 17 and my friend who was with me said, "Bueller. Bueller." to him. Yeah, b/c I'm sure he *never* gets that! And I've seen Jude Law naked. In person.
ha ha ha!
um, I had to google earl because I didn't know who he is.
can you tell I'm not a sports fan?
you win.
Kudos for her to not drag it out Elin style. I hope she is able to maintain an integral relationship with his other children, they need some sort of class in their life.
Oh, I have Sandra Bullocks Viking stove in my house that was taken out of her house that was involved in the lawsuit.
Well if we're playing *that* game, here's mine.
I was at Mother's Egan's trivia night and ended up playing with the Dixie Chicks and Adrian Pasdar.
Also, when that movie "Hope Floats" was filming, I ran into (as in literally ran into) Harry Connick, Jr. at Central Market. And since he was canoodling with Sandra Bullock in that movie, then it was kind of like bumping into her. Full circle!
