2000-OCT-08: MS Windows Media - Today I received an e-mail from Alexandre about the whole new trailers from Sandra's upcoming movie "Miss Congeniality." They are now available for you to view them in two qualities (depending on your connection speed) - 56 kbit/s and 300 kbit/s streaming video at WindowsMedia website. Well, enjoy!

2000-OCT-07: Reuters - French director Barbet Schroeder, best known for suspense movies "Single White Female," "Reversal of Fortune" and "Desperate Measures, may team up with Sandra Bullock on a thriller. He is in final negotiations to direct a Castle Rock project formerly called "Murder by Numbers," but now known as the "Untitled Tony Gayton Project" - a nod to the film's writer.

2000-SEP-26: Sandra Bullock was given an award this weekend. She's got the "Inspiration of the Year" award which is a Sojourn Services award for special deeds made by famous people also to be an inspiration for all of us. This article from Los Angeles Times says that Sandra Bullock won this award for recently supporting many charities for cancer, pediatric AIDS and PETA.

2000-SEP-21: Calgary Herald has another article about "28 Days" which is coming to home video in these days. The reviewer says that "28 Days" (CTS) offers the likeable and bankable Sandra Bullock as Gwen, a New York writer who hasn't a clue she's in serious trouble with booze and pills. The risk here is that the problem is treated more lightly than usual with the apparent plan being to disarm the audience with laughs at her drunken behaviour. Ruining her sister's wedding by falling into the cake then hijacking the limo and crashing it wasn't even the worst thing Gwen did after stumbling through the ceremony. So it's off to rehab for the required period of the title where we meet the usual cast of characters (the suicidal teen, the addicted baseball pitcher-stud, the grumpy introvert and, most of all, the crusty but benign supervisor).

2000-SEP-20: Premiere.com has this short article about "28 Days." It says that although it doesn't come close to the heights of such addiction-classics as The Lost Weekend or Clean and Sober, this melodrama, about a booze and pill addict (Bullock) who's forced into rehab after a drunk-driving incident, is still a surprisingly touching and tender affair. Some of Thomas's attempts at comic levity come off as sitcomish, but Bullock and the fine ensemble deftly avoid the cheap sentimentality so often associated with the genre.

2000-SEP-19: Industry Standard - San Francisco's Food.com is as chic as a neighborhood bistro, with its wrought-iron lobby chairs dressed up like vegetables. But the online meal-ordering company will shift away from focusing on neighborhood hot spots in favor of national chains such as Papa John's. And how is this connected with Sandy? Well, Food.com started after one of its founders watched the Sandra Bullock movie "The Net" and decided it would be cool to order pizza online. The company was originally called Cyberslice. It later morphed into Cybermeals before becoming Food.com. Hehe!

2000-SEP-18: Reuters - Sandra Bullock is in discussions with Castle Rock to topline "Murder by Numbers." The script has caught the eye of Bullock, who insiders say had such a pleasant experience starring in the Donald Petrie-helmed "Miss Congeniality" (due to open Dec. 22 via Warner Bros.) for Castle Rock that she's very much considering starring in the newest effort by "Salton Sea" scribe Tony Gayton. She is also talking with Castle Rock about other projects. No director is as yet attached to "Numbers." The script centers on two gifted high school students who plan and execute a series of perfect murders, and then engage in a battle of wits with an FBI (news - web sites) profiler who is working her first field case.

2000-SEP-17: Here's the article about test screening of "Miss Congeniality" from Ain't It Cool News. As written in the article "Miss Congeniality" is the type of film which, for the crowd that would never see this film because of the trailer, would spew hatred for it as being another bland romantic comedy type of thing. However, for fans of those types of film... this is their heroin. You can read a couple of reviews here (one of them is positive, the other negative). Well, you have to decide for yourself which one is right... But beware - this article contains some spoilers!

2000-SEP-14: PRNewswire - Sandra Bullock will attend PETA's 20th Anniversary Bash Hosted By Chrissie Hynde at The World Famous Viper Room in Hollywood Wednesday, September 13, 2000. PETA stands for People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals. Other celebrity supporters include Alicia Silverstone, Pamela Anderson and Marcus Schenkenberg, Charlize Theron, Thomas Gibson, Spike Jonze, Sofia Coppola, Toby Maguire, Elvira, Rosanna Arquette, Bill Maher, Natasha Gregson Wagner, Owen Wilson and Chrissie Hynde.

2000-SEP-06: JAM! Showbiz: Sandra Bullock is to play boxing manager in the film "Upcoming Ropes." The Hollywood Reporter says Bullock has signed on to star in the real-life story of female boxing manager Jackie Kallen in "On The Ropes." The story follows Kallen as she breaks into the Detroit boxing scene and guides the careers of fighters, including former middleweight champ James Toney. Kallen is also a fight promoter and a former commissioner of the International Female Boxing Association.

2000-SEP-02: "28 Days" also goes DVD! The release date of this movie is September 19, 2000 and we really should look forward to it! According this article from Bergen Record, the DVD version of this film will offer such extras as the "lost episodes" of a soap opera that plays a part in the movie, two "lost songs" from "Guitar Guy," three "character testimonials," an isolated music track, and audio commentary by director Betty Thomas, producer Jenno Topping, editor Peter Teschner, and composer Richard Gibbs. Awesome!

2000-SEP-01: Kansas City Star: Sandra's latest movie "28 Days" is now being released on video. It was a tough sell in theaters, because it looked suspiciously like a Lifetime movie of the week. But director Betty Thomas, screenwriter Susannah Grant and Bullock have made an effective comedy-drama that intelligently explores addiction and the road to recovery. Sandy doesn't ham it up as a hard-drinkin' journalist whose day of reckoning comes after a drunken antic at her sister's wedding. Reluctantly she's tossed into rehab for 28 days and at first ignores the idea that she has a problem. There she meets and befriends a cast of eccentrics, all struggling to overcome their addiction.

2000-AUG-28: This article has some information about Sandra's upcoming movie "Miss Congeniality" which hits the U.S. theaters on December 22, 2000. The article is a part of Corona Productions website and their section called Coming Attractions. It contains some basic information about the film plus the reviews and comments. And what's the plot? Well, it is a story about an FBI agent who must go undercover in the Miss New Jersey beauty pageant to prevent a group from bombing the event.

2000-AUG-10: Reuters - Forest Whitaker and Dwight Yoakam are in final negotiations to star in Columbia Pictures' "The Panic Room." Whitaker, an actor and occasional director, would star with musician and occasional thespian Yoakam as two of three thieves intent on retrieving a hidden stockpile of cash in an old New York brownstone. Between them and the cash lies a "panic room," the centerpiece of David Koepp's script in which a single mom-homeowner (Sandra Bullock) and her daughter hide, battling to defend their lives and home.

2000-AUG-07: JAM! Showbiz: DVD's and video cassettes of the film "Fire On The Amazon" has been in stores for the past several weeks. The never-released-in-theatres movie co-stars Sandra Bullock and Craig Sheffer and was directed by Luis Llosa, who also made Anaconda. So for all of you who always wanted to see this movie, now it's a chance to buy your own copy. The movie is being released in two versions, in both VHS and DVD formats. One is a "rated" version that has less sex, by a few seconds. The other is "unrated" and has the full sex act.

2000-JUL-29: Philadelphia News: The party at the Troc is not a GOP-sanctioned event, but it is one of more than 1,000 parties planned during the Republican National Convention. The party at the Troc is called "Shock the Vote," which is a poke at MTV's "Rock the Vote" effort. It's the brainchild of Grasse, who runs a multimillion-dollar advertising firm that specializes in giving products edgy new appeal. According to Nicole Cashman, a local event planner, Sandra Bullock and some other celebrities have been also invited to this party.

2000-JUL-26: HAPPY BIRTHDAY, SANDY BULLOCK!!! Today is a special day for you. The day like this comes only once a year - don't forget to enjoy it! I wish you all the best, much love and many good people around you keeping you happy and smiling. Keep in mind that work isn't everything... Making people happy, seeing them smiling and enjoying the life - that's the thing we live for. Carry on smiling and the world will smile with you. And remember - age is just a number, don't stop having fun! Happy birthday to you!

2000-JUL-17: Mr Showbiz: Sandra Bullock will swap her high heels for a martyr's crown in her new picture, a thriller about a woman trapped in an abusive relationship. Bullock, who has been busy filming the beauty pageant adventure "Miss Congeniality," will relink with producer Irwin Winkler for "Enough," according to The Hollywood Reporter. The two worked together on 1995's "The Net," an X-Files rip-off that featured Bullock in the laughable role of a computer programmer who becomes the victim of an online conspiracy coup. Bullock and Winkler will turn things up a notch this time, with the actress attempting to flee an evil force made of flesh rather than circuit boards. Bullock has also signed a deal that allows her to make decisions about Enough's development. Well, the idea sounds really interesting to me.

2000-JUL-12: National Enquirer's web site has another movie quiz. They called it "Fun Quiz: Can You Do a Number on These Movie Titles?" Well, you just have to fill in the blanks with the correct choice (to pick the numbers and match them with the correct movie titles). Sandra's latest film ".. Days" is also one of the options. Anyway, I hope that at least this one is a piece of cake for you. :-) Perhaps I would have found it even quite interesting if they hadn't included the correct answers key right below the quiz on the same (!) page. This time it is quite useless, I think.

2000-JUL-08: The latest issue of Slovak magazine Eurotelevizia (#29/2000) has an exclusive interview with Sandra Bullock. Sandy talks about fame and how it influenced her life. She says that fame isn't the most important thing in her life and that she still cares more about her friends and the things she likes. Sandy describes herself as a stubborn, naive, trustworthy, sexy, funny and also sleepy and sneezy person. :-) Then she mentions her teenage years and how much she likes that she's not perfect. After that she says that she likes being single and dating. She also like romantic moments but those can never be planned. In the end Sandy yet mentions some extreme situations of her life (diving with sharks all around and parashuting) and her house in Austin. There are also some nice pictures in the magazine but they match the pictures from the Total Film magazine. You can check them out on Page 7 of my Image Database. Here is also the scan of the cover picture. Enjoy!

2000-JUN-30: And now to Sandra's relationships with men. According to this TV Guide article Sandra Bullock says she's through with dating her co-stars. After failed relationships with Matthew McConaughey and Tate Donovan, Sandy is still looking for love and says she's finally feeling prepared to have children. Also the death of Bullock's mother, Helga, may have prompted the star to make a few changes. Here are some Sandy's quotes on the topic:
"It's taken me a long time to be comfortable in my own skin. I just didn't want to subject my kids to a neurotic mother. I always wanted to feel as if I could put myself first. I'm very close to feeling that way now."
"[On being with her co-stars] It's unnatural because you spend more time with this person than you would with your significant other. In the beginning you think, 'Oh, he's so sweet and attentive.' Then you realize it says he has to be that way in the script."

2000-JUN-23: This article from National Enquirer reveals how the fathers of famous movie stars influenced their lives. George Clooney, Gwyneth Paltrow, Jerry Stiller, Howard Stern, Jay Leno, Michael Douglas, Sharon Stone, Emilio Estevez, Kim Basinger and of course our sweetheart Sandra Bullock talk about their dads. Where would all the stars be without their fathers? How would their lives look? How much are dads involved in their careers? You can find out in this article. And here's what Sandy Bullock had to say about her father:
"I love my dad for how he always puts his family's needs ahead of his own."
"He'd install a toilet and I'd tile the kitchen. He'd sand the floors and I'd shellac the baseboards. We both acquired blisters and bruised knuckles, but it was one of the happiest times of my life."

2000-JUN-20: FOX News: In much of Europe studios have decided not to compete with the Euro 2000 soccer play-offs, and receipts plunged across-the-board. The box office results for released movies were not as good as expected. Sandra Bullock's "28 Days" tried to counter-program against soccer in the U.K. and Italy, but it went dry in both. With only five markets to come, the recovering alcoholic saga has earned just $14.6 million overseas.

2000-JUN-19: San Francisco Examiner: FX, the cable sister of the Fox network, has bought the rights to the TV series "Action" and will air all 13 episodes, including five that were never seen, starting Tuesday (10:30 p.m., FX). So if you live in the USA and you didn't watch the show this past fall on the Fox television network, now this is a chance you really should take. Sandra Bullock plays herself in the episode called "Blowhard" and she is awesome! Read this long article for more information about the series.

2000-JUN-12: Associated Press - The class of 2000 at Gray-New Gloucester High School in Portland, Maine, was looking for a big-name commencement speaker. So it sent invitations to former presidents, Hollywood stars such as Sandra Bullock and Nicolas Cage and scores of other celebrities. "60 Minutes" commentator Andy Rooney was the only one to accept. He did so, he told the 115 graduates Sunday, because he likes young people and Maine. Rooney emphasized the importance of lifelong learning, regardless of whether one goes on to college. Maybe Sandy was just too busy to be there...

2000-JUN-03: Wow! It seems like San Antonio has become a big cool pageant! Filming of Sandra's new movie "Miss Congeniality" is taking place in San Antonio during these days. I found some really cool articles at MySanAntonio.com where you can read the short stories right from the place. Like what the food is like or how cool the hotels and recreation are there. They also have fantastic pictures on some of the listed sites! I would also like to express my big thanks to Buffyfan for mailing me this great info from his local newspaper San Antonio Express News:
"Hey, I live in San Antonio where filming of "Miss Congeniality" is and has been taking place from May 31 to probably to the weekend. My newspaper [San Antonio Express News] and local news has many images of her. It talks about one scene where it's the talent part of the beauty pageant and Sandra plays the tune "Somewhere My Love" on wine glasses. Another scene had onlookers gasping, when Sandra's stunt double runs across the stage and dives into the audience."

2000-JUN-01: This article from Seattle Post-Intelligencer says that high-school photos of Kurt Cobain, Sandra Bullock, Snoop Doggy Dogg and other celebrities will be featured in a new online photo gallery run by Renton online high-school community ClassMates.com and RollingStone.com, the web site of the popular music magazine. I wonder if these pictures will be those old well-known ones or some hot new ones never shown before.

2000-MAY-31: The FHM magazine's list of the 100 sexiest women has got its final shape. The poll has been closed recently and the results are now available at the FHM's website as well as in the July issue of FHM magazine. They also have some very nice pictures on their website. Sandra Bullock took the 21st place on the list. I think it's a quite good result.

2000-MAY-24: And more on filming of "Miss Congeniality." You can read some facts from making of the movie in this article from Austin360. It says that the movie was shooting outside Starbucks, offering an excellent opportunity for unapologetic celebrity gawking (well, do you live in Austin? :-) And Austin, at least in the scene filming Monday, portrays New York. There was a faux construction project (so much more sophisticated and metropolitan than actual Austin construction), and cabs and other vehicles with New York plates lined the street. In what we hope is a crucial plot point, there were veering cars and squealing tires in the middle of Congress Avenue. I also got an e-mail message from Debra White who works at Samsung Austin Semiconductor in Austin, TX. Big thanks for sharing her excitement. Here's what Debra had to say about the filming:
"They are filming today in our building (our second floor has been turned into the Manhattan and New York FBI Control Center/Hq). It's amazing how much stuff/people it takes to film these scenes. We're pretty excited here..."

2000-MAY-23: Czech magazine Total Film (#4, June 2000 issue) has an interview with Sandra Bullock and a "28 Days" movie review. You can also win a 28 Days T-shirt in their quiz. In the interview Sandra talks about the film (on how the life goes on in rehab, what those people there are like and what happened in making of the movie). Sandy also reveals some things about herself: on her first hangover, on how serious workoholic she is and how much she likes working around her house. As usual, it also came up to questions about her girl-next-door image. Sandra says that she loves this thing and as long as she likes the person image it concerns, she doesn't mind it. After that Sandy mentions her Speed 2 "crash" and the movie salaries. She says that Julia Roberts deserves those $20 million she gets for her movies. Sandy herself doesn't feel like a sexsymbol or a woman "to die for." And finally on what Sandy thinks about Roger Corman's efforts to bring "Fire on the Amazon" to the big screen: Well, she really DOES like the idea! Wow! There are also some cool pictures in the magazine, hope to add them soon.

2000-MAY-22: This article from Austin360 says that some Austin drivers may be less inclined to agree with the title of Sandra Bullock's new movie today, when film crews move in to downtown and snarl traffic. Crews for "Miss Congeniality" will be filming before dawn, through morning rush hour and during the day until at least 4 p.m. In the process, they'll be closing a block of 7th Street between Colorado Street and Congress Avenue and the parking lanes on the south side of 6th Street between Brazos Street and San Jacinto Boulevard. On Congress Avenue, between 5th and 7th streets, shooting will wipe out all parking spots and force closure of one lane in each direction.

2000-MAY-18: USA Today: Author Robert Crais has sold the film rights for his book "Demolition Angel" to Columbia/TriStar. While the film has yet to be cast, Crais says he can picture Sandra Bullock, Jodie Foster or Helen Hunt playing Carol Starkey (LAPD detective who was critically injured trying to defuse a bomb. Her partner and lover was killed, and Starkey was horribly disfigured in the blast. After two months in the hospital and numerous reconstructive surgeries, her emotional health is still in ruins. She drinks and smokes too much, pops Tagamet like candy. She has no social life. Still yearning to regain her place on the bomb squad, Starkey investigates a blast that killed a cop). In his book, Crais profiles a doggedly determined woman with undaunted courage who wants nothing more than to regain her spirit and her job. Well, I think Sandy would be great in this role.

2000-MAY-12: Reuters - Did you ever wonder who you would like, if you could, to do a love scene with? Well, asked which actor or actress they would most like to do a movie love scene with, it turns out one particular actress stands out in the fantasy lives of Americans, according to a new Zogby America poll. And no, it's not Sandra Bullock. The May survey of 1,013 adults nationwide showed that of the more than 200 choices given, 17.3% of the respondents chose Julia Roberts as the actress they would most want to be in a love scene with. However, there's no reason to feel sad because our cute Sandy Bullock was the runner up choice among actresses (with 4.8%), followed by Sophia Loren and Demi Moore. The second place is awesome too, isn't it?

2000-MAY-10: This is really funny. The website of the Blockbuster Awards says that the awards show already took place yesterday in Los Angeles. So it seems like the event which will be aired June 20, 2000 on Fox is not a live feature. It all would be absolutely alright I guess, but I don't really get one thing - why the **** have they already disclosed the results of all events and announced all winners on their website? I really wonder who is now ever going to watch the show. Well, if you really want to know if Sandy did or did not win in the category "Favorite Actress in a Comedy/Romance" you have to find out yourself. I won't tell you. :-) But keep in mind, this information is a spoiler. Hahaha, does anybody care? :-)

2000-MAY-09: Reuters - It's finally here! Sandra's movie "28 Days" (the recovering alcoholic saga from rehab center) is now playing in theaters across Europe! You can catch it in Germany, Austria and Switzerland, the film will come out in another countries very soon! As for the results from playing in Germany, "28 Days" earned $898,000 and took No. 1 slot.

2000-MAY-01: Do you remember the link to Heidi's mailbox I had on my site a few days ago? Well, if you took the chance and mailed her your condolences for Sandy and her family (Sandra's mother Helga died of cancer on April 4, 2000), now you can read all messages on Heidi's website. She created a really nice page where she put all sympathies and greetings from fans. You can also take a look at a really beautiful picture of the cover she used for her book. Big thanks to everyone for your support and happy reading!!!

Also joining the cast is Jennifer Gareis as the real Miss New Jersey who Bullock must push out of the way, Wendy Raquel Robinson as Miss California and Diedre Quinn as Miss Texas. The Castle Rock Entertainment project is scheduled to go before cameras next month.

2000-APR-18: New York Post: This time Sandra's movie didn't top the U.S. box office list. "Rules of Engagement" edged out the new Sandra Bullock drama "28 Days" for the No. 1 slot at North American movie theaters, according to studio estimates issued. "Rules" (Paramount Pictures), a military legal drama starring Tommy L. Jones and Samuel L. Jackson, pulled in about $10.9 million for the Friday-to-Sunday period. "28 Days" earned about $10.4 million.

2000-APR-16: Dish Magazine has a really nice article. It might have been called "Everything You Wanted to Know About Sandra Bullock but Were Afraid to Ask" since it covers the main milestones of Sandra's career, movies, her likes/dislikes and many other facts from her past. The article contains also the quotes of people who met or worked with Sandy (actors, directors) as well as quotes of Sandra herself. If you always wanted to know what other people think about Sandy and what she says about herself and her production company (Fortis Films), here's your chance to find out. Info courtesy of Cyd.

2000-APR-15: Washington Post: Did you ever wonder what kinds of things and performances actors have to do while making a movie? Sometimes it might really look like a real horror to us - simple people of the audience. This article says that Sandra Bullock had to "perform" one of those well-known and really embarrassing situations - throwing up - when working on the movie "28 Days" (which is now playing across the USA). She practiced vomiting to prepare for her role as a druggie. Here's what Sandy told to US Weekly:
"I am good at throwing up. And it is so underrated these days. People don't know how difficult it is to vomit on cue each and every time with the same sounds."

2000-APR-14: Oh, yeah! Today is that big day - the day of a new Sandra's movie currently playing in all theaters across the USA. I'm sure you know which movie I'm talking about - it's "28 Days" - the story of a big-city newspaper columnist (Sandra Bullock) who is forced to enter a drug and alcohol rehab center after stealing a limousine and crashing it into a house. Some people say that this is the best role Sandy has ever played in her life. So, don't even think about missing this movie! This one is something really special!

2000-APR-09: Calgary Sun has another nice interview with Sandra Bullock. This time it is focused on Sandy's personality and her always-present kindness. At first she talks about "28 Days" and how the life goes on in rehab center (even some new facts, not mentioned in previous interviews). Next part concerns Sandra's behavior, attitudes to work, parties, relationships and having kids. And finally, Sandra yet reveals some information from making of her next film "Miss Congeniality" (coming out in December 2000).

2000-APR-07: This article by Jamie Portman of The Ottawa Citizen is actually an interview with Sandra Bullock about her new movie "28 Days" (coming soon into the theaters). Sandy talks about alcohol problems, about the people she met in rehab center and describes the feeling of being there - the feeling of being unwanted. The article is really interesting, near the end there are also some attitudes of others of the movie crew and explanation of why Sandra's presence in the film was so crucial to getting it made. Here's how Sandy felt in rehab:
"I could have gone a different route and just taken notes, but I didn't want to just take notes. I walked into that room, and I've never been so uncomfortable in my life. The counsellor opened the door and pushed me in. There were people in this circle ... and no one liked me. No one was there to support me. ... Everyone was as honest as you could get. I've never felt so naked in my entire life."

2000-APR-06: Oh, my God!!! This news is certainly the most difficult one I ever had to type on my keyboard. The keystrokes don't come out easy since my hands are being ridden by feelings and emotions. I'm sorry for being so sentimental but that's how I feel right now... Ok, now to the really sad news from E! Online. It says that the opera singer Helga Meyer, 63 years, Sandra's mother, died on last Tuesday in the United States after a long and serious ilness (so all those gossips were true). For that reason, Sandra is not going on this Thursday to the preview of her new film "28 Days." Yet we haven't even recovered from the news on Sandra's serious brain illness and now this! All I can say in these hard times: Sandra, please, accept my sincere condolences! All fans from all over the world are now with you and your family!!!

PRNewswire - Several of the movies nominated this year for the Blockbuster Entertainment Awards feature pairings of today's hot actors and actresses, so blockbuster.com conducted an online survey to find out which couple was the fan favorite. Visitors to the Blockbuster Entertainment Awards web page at blockbuster.com were asked which of 1999's romantic duos had the best on-screen chemistry. Sandra Bullock and Ben Affleck ("Forces of Nature") are in the 5th place on the list with 11 percent.

2000-APR-04: Finally, here's the full article from National Enquirer about Sandra's brain ilness. It says that Sandy is seeing two top neurologists, has undergone a battery of tests - and still hasn't discovered what's causing her devastating headaches. Her troubles began in January when she was snowboarding in Sun Valley, Idaho, and took a spill that ended with her hitting her head hard. Soon afterward the brain-splitting headaches began. According to her physicians, Sandra's condition could be anything from a migraine problem to a tear in an artery - which could trigger a deadly stroke. Oh, my goodness! Sandy, all fans think of you!!! GET WELL SOON!!!

2000-APR-02: With the release date of "28 Days" getting closer and closer, the articles promoting the movie are starting to increase in number. Los Angeles Times has a couple interviews with Betty Thomas (film director) and Susannah Grant (film screenwriter). I hope there will be also interviews with Sandra Bullock popping up pretty soon since they are those we can't wait for. "28 Days" comes into the U.S. theaters on April 14, 2000!
