Damn! Doesn’t Sandra Bullock look amazing? You’d think that having her husband screw around with her on a neo-Nazi, forehead-tattooed whore somehow agrees with her. This is Sandra Bullock last night in Culver City, at the Spike TV Guys Choice Awards. Sandra was awarded the “Troops Choice” award, which the men in the armed services voted on for their favorite entertainer/actress. Sandra wore leather, and was presented her award by Robert Downey Jr. Well done!
CULVER CITY, Calif. – Spike TV says Sandra Bullock has made a surprise appearance at its “Guys Choice” event in Culver City.
Spike says Bullock received a standing ovation from the audience Saturday night at Sony Pictures Studios when she accepted the “Troops Choice” Award for Entertainer of The Year, from presenter Robert Downey, Jr. The award was voted on by members of the military.
The 45-year-old actress has kept a low profile since her public split from husband Jesse James after she won the Best Actress Oscar for her role in “The Blind Side” earlier this year.
Bullock is also set to appear Sunday at the MTV Movie Awards where she is to receive the Generation Award. Spike’s “Guys Choice” will air on June 20.

What a way to make her first public appearance! It hits all the sweet spots – reinforcing her appeal with men – and not just men, servicemen. It was a surprise, so there wasn’t any kind of insane build-up of “What is she going to do? Is she going to be okay?” Plus, she looked amazing and she was able to send the signal of “I’m going to be okay.” I’m very impressed with Sandra’s PR moves, starting with her People Magazine cover. She’s got great PR instincts, and she must have a really good team around her. Well done, Sandra!
UPDATE: Whoops, People Magazine has some excerpts from her acceptance speech. Sandra told the crowd: “Let’s be honest here, just for a moment. We’re all going to be honest, right? Did I win this for being entertainer of the year, or did I win this because of the spectacular I.E.D. [improvised explosive device] explosion that became my personal life?! No, it’s okay. Because I would do it over again if it was to entertain our troops , and our extraordinary troops deserve something much more than some actress in a tight dress talking herself. I would sing, but you’ve seen enough pain in your lifetime. I would dance – I’m a pretty good dancer, but as I mentioned, the dress is pretty tight.” Up on stage with Bullock was U.S. Army 1st Sergeant Nicholas McClain, who told People: “Originally we were told she wasn’t going to be here at all, and somebody would be accepting on her behalf. So it was a great surprise to see her coming out on the stage… [She was given the award]… just because a lot of the movies that she does – they provide different venues for everybody to see us. And we know that she has a lot of great support for the troops. And she’s America’s Sweetheart, regardless of anything that’s been going on in her past.”
Awesome, just awesome!
AMAZING was my first thought when I saw the picture of Sandra. She looks absolutely stunning!
She looks the best she has looked! Even better than her oscar stuff! Did she darken her hair? It looks amazing, the dress is amazing, wow!
🙂 pleasant to hear
Amazing dress.
Sandy!!! 😀
She looks AMAZING…………and HOT!!! As a female, i’m glad to say that this looks like a moment of “Payback is a b*tch” by looking so beautiful and confident after everything. She is so cool.
I adore her! You just cannot keep a classy lady down. I wish her an abundance of love and pure joy with her children.
I agree-this is the best i’ve ever seen her look. the leather agrees with her!
And what a hoot-joking about the attention; she knows some of her attention and awards are ‘sympathy’…perhaps not this particular one…but surely you know, she gets sympathy from folks and that mixes in with her appeal as an actress. There’s no way to separate the two.
Anyway, she’s looking hot for sure.
Good for her-hope shes doing as well as she looks.
Very cool of her.
Go Sandra!
she looks better now than 15 years ago! thank her plastic surgeon doctor!(she must give his phone number to Nicole Kidman)
thank also her RP! (how can she win an Oscar for her acting?)
SHE IS SMOKIN’ HOT! 🙂
Fantastic…..Fantastic!
She looks awesome with her really dark hair and the style is Perfect-o! She looks way better in leather than anyone Jesse will ever WISH he had (again!)
I’ve said it before….Sandra is my girl crush and she hasn’t let me down! Love and best wishes to you, Sandra!
Dlisted’s got the video – it’s pretty funny. She does look hot, although RDJ was almost unrecognizable. I did a double and triple take and still was wondering until I came here hoping you’d done a write up on Sunday.
She did a little drooling on the guys behind her too. 🙂
After seeing the video on eonline, it’s obvious that the appearance was not an “all about me” opportunity.
No Pity Party here! She looks AWESOME!
She looks amazing!!!!! She is my role model for bouncing back after a personal devastation. I’m glad to see her looking so well and still keeping her sense of humor. Her ability to joke about herself was always one of her endearing qualities to me. This reminds me of when she won the Razzie.
Wow, she looks hot! I’m seriously coveting her hair.
I think it’s great she showed up, since it was the Troops award.
She looks gorgeous. They say the best revenge after being hurt by an ex is to be happy. She looks very happy!
She is one classy dame. She is a great mentor for other ladies out there. No need to wallow in self pity or play the victim card. Ahem, are you listening Kate Gosselin?
She is woman and hear her roar!
I think her great look and demeanor shows what a great actress she is. She would have to be still recovering from the shock she got at her husband’s betrayal. I saw the video also and she was incredible, trying to focus on the troops, not herself. I agree that RD jr. was almost unrecognizable.
This is fantastic. She just continues to amaze me with her beauty. Go Sandy!
Favorite Sandra line during an acceptance award for The Blind Side.
“Did you really like my performance or did I just wear you down.” 🙂
Hmmm, the leather dress and dark hair give the finger to the soon to be ex. For all her graciousness, she is not without the need to subliminally show her aggrievedness with payback. Good to see it!
She’s so funny and cool! Her ex slept with one trashy ho after the other, and she still keeps her sense of humor. What an awesome role model. Thank god she didn’t do the Aniston posing semi-nude, crying, pity party, screaming at the ocean, I’m still going through 5 years of Spring cleaning route. Would’ve lost all respect for her. Way to stay classy, Sandy!
Hmmm….that’s what I thought also. Biker’s wear leather for protection also (from the the ass fault).
I’ve never really cared for her, but all throughtout this scandal she has been chipping away at my ice cold heart. Adopting her son defrosted it and this is it:
I offically love her now.
Deb…Yeah, and I just realized her first appearance has all to do with men, macho military guys who adore her. A two handed finger. Heh. Go Sandra!
Her speech was really sweet- it hit the right note of acknowledging the elephant (or gorilla, if you will) in the room with humor while also giving a heartfelt thanks to the troops who voted for her.
She’s one hell of a savvy woman, which makes me like her all the more!
[The video is on dlisted.com]
You go girl!!!
Damn, girl looks fantastic!
If Sandy ever decided to give up acting and producing for some reason, she would make a killing as a PR consultant! Throughout this whole fiasco, she hasn’t made a misstep. I’m totally impressed.
And hopefully, she’ll keep the phone numbers of some of those decent, tasty servicemen for when she’s ready to jump back into the dating game!
Sorry but I don’t understand the hype of Sandra looking good. There have been a bunch of photographs of her the past few weeks and she looked perfectly fine. So I don’t know why people think she would look like crap. Sandra looks good but she doesn’t look any different from before the scandal.
Love her hair! Bless her and Louis, he’s got a classy, smart mommy. JJ and McGonnorhea eat your tattoed hearts out!!
Of course she looks amazing, she just lost 200 pounds of ugly, worthless fat.
Gorgeous hair! Sandy, you look fantastic!
Whatever…you are hilarious!
Love her and think she’s doing GREAT.
Also, just thought of something…wouldn’t RDJ and Sandra be great together in a movie? Seems like there would be real chemistry.
Wow, living well IS the best revenge. This is 100% awesome, this woman’s got no downside.
BRILLIANT! Well done Sandra Bullock! Truly stunning and amazing!
I feel like she’s saying to Jesse, “See, I can wear black leather, too, but I look a billion times better in it than that monstrosity with whom you cheated on me.”
It’s a scr*w you to Jesse, to Michelle McGee – who’s the bombshell,now? – and to everybody who said Jesse cheated because she wasn’t sexy enough.
And she’s doing it all with a big smile on her face, and she’s doin’ it for the troops. Brilliant.
YOU GO GIRL!!!!!!!! She looks utterly amazing – and much younger than 45! Mommyhood definitely agrees with her! She must be very emotionally strong to be able to refer to her personal life of her own accord and in a joke-y manner too. I wouldn’t have expected anything else from her though – she is one very cool and admirable chick.
Looking hot and sexy is her best revenge! Way to go Sandy!
Well done.
I’ve never thought she was over the top beautiful, but in these pictures, she is just plain gorgeous.
Bravo Bravo Bravo
I LOVE HER!! Did you see the MTV awards? WOW. PLEASE: Kristen Stewart call Sandy to learn how to act like a person that APPRECIATES things and has CLASS!! Awkward is just not cutting it anymore,get some CLASS like THIS LADY!!
Sandy -N- Stamos Now Please!!! (had to make sure I didn’t write “Sandy and Uncle jessie”- too messy.)
She always sounds so unpretentious (unlike Julia Roberts, for example), and I think that’s why so many people like her. She COULD be a total bitch in real life, but she doesn’t come across that way when she gives speaches and interviews.
She looks hot! Love it. Love her speech too, fantastic.
Now *there* is a woman who has REALLY been through the crap marital wise, who truely doesn’t look her age (no way does she look mid 40’s), has lovely (not overly tanned or leathery) skin, doesn’t throw pity parties in interviews, is very funny and comes off as genuine and down to earth and has actual talent and truely great comedic flair, went through an adoption as a single woman which took guts, AND has topped off her career by nabbing an Oscar.
Nice work Sandy- big kudos to you girl! 😀
you realize she’s banging clooney, don’t you?
