i knew i liked sandra bullock

i've had a place in my heart for sandra bullock ever since i saw her in "while you were sleeping" (still one of my all-time favorite movie). maybe it helps that i can pretend we're in some way similar because she comes off as a down-to-earth yet beautiful brunette (who doesn't want to pretend they relate to that?) but i'm all the more impressed with her now that she appears to be as genuine and real off-screen as she is on.

i applaud her selflessness in giving $1 million to Haiti relief efforts (her earnings from "the blind side," which i loved her in as well). however, i probably could have done without the rant at the end about how hollywood is so noble and always stepping up to the plate {gag} (but, because we disagree on this point, i can pretend it never happened, right?).
