Sandra Bullock knew Jesse James’ engagement was coming

fp_6585297_bullock_sandra_aar_01_05

Yesterday, we got an explanation for Sandra Bullock’s “Don’t look at me, don’t look at me” appearance at the Golden Globes – her ex-husband Jesse James is newly engaged to a psycho. Not only did Jesse announce his engagement to Kat Von D – he gave a whiny, insensitive, self-pitying, oblivious and hurtful interview to People Magazine where he claimed, amongst other things, that “2010 was actually the best year of my life because I fell in love with my best friend… I have never met anyone so kind and loving and committed to making the world a better place every day.” So these photos are Sandra Bullock’s answer. She just took Louis out and about in NYC. No formal statement, no tears, no half-naked photo shoot. Just this.

PopEater does report that Jesse gave Sandra a heads-up about the engagement announcement though. So she was… prepared for it, at least.

While the rest of America shook their heads in surprise at the swift engagement between Jesse James and his girlfriend of six months, Kat Von D., one woman took it all in stride: Jesse’s ex, Sandra Bullock.

Sources close to Sandy tell PopEater that she was given a heads up that this would come out this week and that while she isn’t exactly jumping for joy, she has accepted that Jesse is moving on with his life with Kat. Sandra’s biggest priority right now is her adopted son, Louis, and she isn’t planning to let anything get her off course from being the best mom she can be.

“It may seem like only yesterday that Jesse and Sandra split, but for her, life has changed so much, that it seems like ages ago,” our source tells us.

While Sandra and Jesse aren’t exactly close friends, they do have ways to keep information flowing between the two of them, and our source says that Jesse knew he needed to let Sandra know that things between him and Kat were serious.

“Sandra knew it was coming, and she was ready,” our source says.

It does seem like tattoo queen Kat is a much better match for bad boy Jesse James than the buttoned up Academy Award winner was. Jesse reiterated that sentiment in a statement about his future wife: “2010 was actually the best year of my life because I fell in love with my best friend,” he said.

Do you think she even cares at this point? I mean, I get that we aren’t even one year past the first revelation of Jesse’s infidelity, right on the heels of Sandra’s Oscar win last year. But don’t you think that at some point Sandra just looked at the women Jesse was boning… Bombshell McGee, Kat Von D, and those other chicks… don’t you think Sandra just realized that they’re trash? That he was a waste of time? I imagine it clicking for her suddenly, like, “Oh, I get it. I am SO much better than this loser. I deserve better.” Speaking of, People Mag also has the scoop on Kat’s engagement ring – a Neil Lane four-carat diamond set in platinum. Ugh.

I love Louis’s face. He is so over this junk. It’s not a shank-eye… it’s more like a “I don‘t have time for your dumb ass” face.

    Sandra is such a fighter. She could teach a class in surviving. I did think she was off at the Golden Globes though I think she is angry at him and at herself. I mean all that time and effort she put in with him and his kids and now he’s proved that he never gave a shit. But that woman is so not throwing any pity parties.

  2. MeMyself says:

    Team Sandra!
    And how cute is that little guy?!

  3. brin says:

    Class act all the way. I bet she is relieved that he is with someone else and she can completely put an end to him and that part of her life. She deserves so much better. Louie is a doll!

  4. David says:

    I still can not understand how Jesse James’ landed her???

  5. Roma says:

    I would make a comment about how she’s stayed classy through this whole situation but after the trouncing I got yesterday on the Brandi/LeAnn thread, I think I give up.

  6. DetRiotgirl says:

    Actually, I don’t think Louis is making an “over it” face. It’s more of a “nap time was NOT over! Bring nap time back!” face. I know. I worked in a daycare center as an odd job long ago. That face always meant “either turn the lights back out and the sound machine back on, or bring me a damn good snack. Because if you don’t, I have a Dora the explorer shank with YOUR NAME ON IT!”.

    That said, he is adorable!

    How much of a tool is Jesse James? Tool doesn’t even start to do this guy justice. At this point, he’s like a full on tool box! Seriously, there is no hardware analogy that can fully capture the magnitude of that man’s suckage.

  7. Westcoaster says:

    Sandra will have the last laugh. Either Jesse and Kat will not get married or their marriage will end badly. It is just a question of when the ” Vanilla Gorilla” will be roaming the gutter for some trash.

  8. Dudette says:

    Good for her. And I hope she seriously reconsiders her ‘I want Jesse in Louis’ life’ stance that she took earlier in the year. Not to sound harsh but she needs to cut off from this man entirely and that includes his kids.

    That said, I’m starting to suspect she’s had something done to her face. I know it’s a candid but her face looks unnaturally tight in these pics. I noticed the same thing at the GGs.

  9. brin says:

    @Roma….new day, new thread and you have a right to your opinion, gf!

  10. Samigirl says:

    @Roma, I don’t think ANYONE would disagree with you about Sandra and her level of classy she has maintained throughout this whole ordeal 🙂

  11. Maud says:

    @Roma Getting trounced is fun! I got pummelled for my comment about the Kerr-Bloom post. Ladies put their gloves on over a random opinion! 🙂

  12. candy says:

    Sandra looked sad at the Golden Globes. This time last year all was right in the world. Or seemed to be. What a difference a year makes. I hope she is shagging someone or will soon. That will help put things straight.

  13. Vi says:

    i imagine she is at least a bit upset. i mean she’s still human. even if you realise your ex is trash and he’s engaged to an idiot the fact that you thought you were happy for 5 years and it came out of the blue for her, it’s still going to hurt when it’s less than a year afterwards.

  14. Mrs.Rut says:

    @Dudette…I think she has something done too! It’s her lips that look off to me. I also think she needs to cut him out of the child’s life, if he actually even sees him (which I doubt). He doesnt need to grow up with that scum as a role model. Sandra is all Louie will ever need.

  15. Bellatrix says:

    Isn’t it more of a “Yo, where MAH sunglasses?” face? No?

  16. Johnny Depp's Girl says:

    So glad that he did not get a chance to adopt Louis! I think she is a class act, Roma and thanks for pointing that out.

    She can do so much better.

  17. happygirl says:

    I agree with brin and Vi: I think she’s probably happy that he’s with someone else, and I also think she’s probably a little sad at the same time. I think she’s totally in love with her little tatorbug, though. He’s such a cutie!! Great mom. Love Sandra.

  18. Darlene says:

    Jesse James is trash. She is fortunate he has moved on with his new skank. Hope their “TRUE LOVE” lasts FOREVER.

    Because they’ll be lucky if it lasts until next year.

  19. luls says:

    funny how people get on lohan’s case for having duck lips, and here sandra shows up with the same crap in hers, and she gets called a class act! hypocrites i tell u!

  20. munchies says:

    Actually Jesse and Kat Von D are just so perfect for each other.

  21. Rita says:

    Yeah, I think Sandra and Elin Woods had the same epiphany at different times, i.e. “I won’t be bothered with trash”.

  22. sharylmj says:

    I agree that she is probably relieved that he has moved on and she can get on with her life too. She probably wants him in the baby’s life so she can stay in his kids’ life as well. She loves those children that was probably what drew her to him in the first place.
    She is such a trouper.

  23. EdithP says:

    Sandra always looks good when she’s dressed casually — she just looks so uncomfortable at formal events.

    Louie is my favorite — I still think he and Zahara should marry and rule the world. Let’s make it happen, people!!

  24. citysuede says:

    @Roma – that’s why they call it celeBITCHY…hahaha. I got in trouble yesterday for a comment. laugh on, sisters!

  25. citysuede says:

    and Sandra does have too much class for this guy. I can’t believe he said all those things in an interview. how hurtful.

  26. Attagirl says:

    The absurd insensitivity of Jesse’s statement to People shows that he’s still sulking in the corner after the tidal wave of disgust against him last year. Once again he’s behaved like a jealous little child by retaliating in a way sure to hurt Sandra, only it’s backfired on him again. He comes out smellier and she comes out like a rose.

  27. Myarhymez says:

    I’m convinced that Sandra was drugged while with this douche bag, cause I just don’t see the appeal …Asshole! I wouldn’t even sweat this garbage at all, just look at the females he was messing with..Trash

  28. liz says:

    That kid is so damn cute.

  29. Happymom says:

    I like her a lot. But I still really question her judgement in how she fell for him to begin with-knowing his past (the porn stars)–and I’m guessing she’s been wondering the same.

  30. Weeble says:

    I don’t think Sandra is hurt or upset by this at all. I think there’s been too much attention given to Kat and VG overall, and that all this hooplah would not have happened if VG were not married to Sandra and these sad tabloids were not looking for a story. Certainly, I don’t think Kat would have even paid attention to him if he were not getting a bit of press. Hopefully VG and Kat will get married and drop out of the spotlight — VG will probably cheat or Kat will get bored when someone more famous becomes single. So…let’s hope there’s a quick ceremony so we can stop reading about this.

  31. Grace says:

    That excerpt from Popeater about Louis being her “adopted son” makes me happy I don’t read that site. I can’t stand it when magazines and websites continuously refer to someone’s child as their “adopted child” rather than simply their child. Louis is Sandra’s son. Period.

  32. Marjalane says:

    Meh. I’m tired of all the fawning over Sandra Bullock. She’s got some great qualities, but she’d have to be a complete IDIOT to not know what kind of jerk Jesse James was- she was with him for years. How many of you are able to deny the morals and values of someone you’ve been married to, or even dated for any length of time? This whole thing makes me more skeptical of her than him. We knew he was bizarre.

    Also- I’d bet my last dime that she had restylane and lip injections recently. She’s got immobile face syndrome at the moment.

  33. Roma says:

    Thanks for the love, all. Sometimes I just need to back away from the crazy commentators.

    @Grace: I find that people make that distinction more if the child is of a different ethnicity than the parent. I was a white baby adopted by a white family and I was their kid, period. My eldest brother adopted a native baby and he is referred to as the “adopted son” even within our extended family. Blows my mind.

  34. sapphire says:

    The ring is tacky and clashes with her tattoos.

    I am so sad to admit I think Sandra has done the duck lips. WHY?

  35. Squirrel says:

    She does look strange indeed (first thought they had hired a body double). Ironic that her and Kat both would have had work done on their faces when the one who actually needs it most would be Jesse (preferably post-punch).

  36. abel says:

    i can see her son being friends with the Jolie-Pitt kids haha

  37. Cidee says:

    I am thinking that the odd look to her face MAY be from crying. I look like a different person after I have a crying jag (luckily not too often) and, although I hope she is completely over him, I think it would be normal to be devastated by his most recent assholic press release.

  38. anti says:

    i’d take louis over that fella any day. she’ll be fine.

  39. meg says:

    Oh that baby has the BEST facces. Every picture is a gem.

  40. Grace says:

    @Roma: I agree when it comes to most people – but I think the reason for that is most likely that random people at the supermarket don’t realize a child is adopted unless they’re of a different ethnicity. But I’ve never understood why people feel the need to slap that label on at all.

    However, I’ve noticed that the press seems to refer to every child of a celebrity who was adopted as their adopted child. There are still some magazines referring to Calista Flockheart’s child as her “adopted son” and he’s ten years old. It’s ridiculous.

  41. Crash2GO2 says:

    @Grace – I totally agree! Why label a child as adopted at all? It’s immaterial.

    @Roma: I got your back girl. We need more posters with balanced viewpoints like yours.

    @happygirl: *wave*

    Sandra is an inspiration to me (although I do wish I had as much money as she does) to ignore the jerks and live well.

  42. SolitaryAngel says:

    Sandra is a class act, and I love her and wish her all the best. That little boy is lucky to have her!

  43. Tiffany says:

    @ Grace. I TOTALLY agree with you. I am so sick of it. That is her kid. She adopted him, that is how he became her son. Magazine and newspaper writers need to watch their wording because this is insensitive writing in my opinion and there should be someone editing this stuff before its released.

  44. Iggles says:

    I don’t get how people can go from married to divorced to engaged within months! Hollyweird is strange..

  45. REALIST says:

    Her face looks strange, but it must have been freakin’ cold that day-look what they’re wearing. I know the skin on my face gets all wigged out in the cold, and Sandy and I are the same age.
    She just doesn’t seem like someone who would get “done”, really.
    Thank God Loser wasn’t on the adoption papers…

  46. jc126 says:

    You know, the more of a douche Jesse James reveals himself to be, the harder it is for me to think that she was unaware of it. Maybe didn’t know he was cheating, but he’s a dick in general – how did she not know?

  47. K-MAC says:

    who hasn’t dated or married a jerk? give me a break. Just because she married him does not mean she is him. Yes, there is always two sides and we do not know what went on behind closed doors, but this guy is an honest to goodness piece of trash and she cannot speak one word or her whole scenario will be shredded apart. Can you imagine taking this kind of crap from your ex and not saying anything? This bitch is strong and movin’ on!

  48. jaye E says:

    @luls…Lindsay? Is that you, girlfriend?

  49. serena says:

    Jesse James has been really rude saying “2010 was the best year of my life blabla”. I didn’t even think of Sandra, not even for a second, he’s just as dumb as his women/trashes.

  50. DeeDee says:

    I think her face is tighter because she just lost 300lbs of useless flab.

    Next Jenny Craig spokesperson? 🙂

    Beautiful little boy, and love her!

  51. Sally G says:

    His comments are so incredibly insensitive that I hope his 15 minutes are now up. It’s laughable that someone who complains about the world turning their backs on him finds these comments to be his next move. Clearly the man is not the sharpest tatoo needle in the parlor.

  52. Raven says:

    I give him little credit in her knowing that he was getting engaged. I’m sure she gets leaks from the kids and probably has sources around him who still like her quite a bit. She was probably sad at the GG’s because she was concerned about getting ambushed over her ex and his gf. And it is also the anniversary of the crap hitting the fan last year.

    Bullock is probably questioning her judgment in getting involved with him in the first place. Others saw the problem but she was blind to it. People who are honest with themselves in that situation may also be asking themselves, OK, what else out there am I not seeing realistically? It’s a definite shock to think that your own judgment may be faulty.

    She is eminently classy and that remark of his about last year being his best ever was incredibly ugly. He clearly said it in an attempt to wound her. The fact that he is still thinking about SB should concern Kat Von D if she were anything but a tool. Not that he has any chance with SB, but if Kat can’t really make him happy now, he’s gonna be sneaking around on her later. But,hey, maybe she doesn’t care. Maybe she’s just looking for a payout down the line.

  53. lisas says:

    I like Kat, but she has the most shit taste in men.

    I agree with you Kaiser, I don’t think Sandra cares that much. It’s probably a bit of a sting to her pride but not much besides that. Maybe I’m projecting, but once a loser is out of your life you don’t exactly care what happens to him after you’re free of his bullshit. Plus, she has a supercute baby to play with. She should put him in lil teeny ray-bans too. Squeeee

  54. Hmmm says:

    Yeah, I think she still cares. It’s only been a year. Sandra seemed crazy in love with him. And he turned out to be a depraved Vanilla Gorilla. I would think it would take a lifetime to get over that; it’s traumatising at the very least.

    I imagine he wounded her very deeply to begin with. Now he’s sadistically sticking it to her again. Yeah, it brings up a lot of memories and pain, I’m guessing. She can act cool all she wants, but human feelings have their own schedule and so does human healing.

  55. Sami says:

    He was exposed as a cheater, everyone turned against him and his marriage fell apart. Not sure how that qualifies as a best year ever.

  56. beebeedoom says:

    I heard 2010 was the best year of Sandra’s life too, she won an Oscar, kicked her ex douchebag to the curb, and found the love of HER life, Louis.

  57. Penguen says:

    @Grace – TOTALLY agreed. I’m adopted, and my parents are my parents, period. I don’t know the people who gave me life, but they’re not my folks.

    Using the phrase, “adopted” son or daughter makes it seem like there’s less of a relation there, and it gives an off impression. For a lot of people, family is family.

    With that said, Sandra’s “adopted son” is simply her son, 100%, and I’m sure that she and her kid feel that way, too. 🙂

  58. Anon says:

    The thought that Sandra isn’t upset or affected by this news and statement is absurd to me. It hasn’t even been a year since her husband of several years – the man she publicly (before a worldwide audience of millions) declared to “always have her back” was outed as a cheater and she realized she was living a lie. She might not want him back, she might realize he’s a douche and she’s better off without him, but it doesn’t mean she isn’t still hurt. He was obviously someone she loved and he let her down in the worst way – you don’t just get over that. Moreover, she’s probably still upset about “what could have been” – i.e. she, Jesse, Louis and Jesse’s children whom she was close to (1 she practically raised).

    That said, and while I like Sandra generally, I don’t believe for a second she was completely unaware of Jesse’s character. She might have been in the dark about his cheating on her, but she was certainly aware of his questionable sexual behavior because he was twice sued for sexual harassment during her time with him and settled financially with at least one woman. Not to mention, I’m not sure how she would never have seen his Nazi memorabilia – did she never go by his office? She’s certainly been classy in that she has refrained from public outburst or comment, but she’s also been PR-managing her reaction since this news spilled (probably so that no one would think twice on what her knowledge or role with regards to Jesse’s behavior was). Her first few sets of photos were set up and sold exclusively to Entertainment Tonight, the People baby reveal, her first filmed appearances, etc. She very carefully managed the aftermath – which is her right, but also says she intended for a certain image to be portrayed to the public. Doesn’t mean that behind closed doors she isn’t reacting and feeling.

  59. Gabriela says:

    can only hope she is doing ok. she is such a sweetheart and i know how betrayal can be hurtful.

  60. Rose says:

    After all he put Sandra through, the least he could do was word his statement in a way that did not throw Sandra under a fleet of moving buses.. but the man is trash, and a slut monger so I guess that was to much for anyone to hope for.

  61. the original bellaluna says:

    Yeah, that statement JJ gave to People just earned him a permanent position in the “Insensitive Asshole Hall of Fame,” right next to Tiger and that sports dude from NBC who left his 8 months-pregnant-with-twins wife for his jump-off.

    In our family, we don’t use the word “step” before “child,” “brother,” “sister,” etc…we’re family, for all intents and purposes. Once an adoption is complete, the child is YOUR child, and “adopted” no longer needs to precede the word. Last I checked, adoption doesn’t void a child being “yours.” These people just need to stop.

  62. bubbles says:

    @DeeDee LMAO!
    I just hope that poor Louis is not going to have to spend time with his new “Step-Mother and father” in their “Funhouse”/freakshow. and yes, that statement that he released was tasteless and such a stab at SB who has been handling this with such grace. she really didn’t deserve this and a big BOOOOO! for People Mag for publishing this douchebag’s verbal diarrhea.

  63. hyuch says:

    JJ’s statement is appalling, but I don’t think it was aimed at SANDRA, it was crafted to try and communicate that his new lover Kat V D. is not just some rebound chick but a huge love of his life. Look, wether or not this is true who cares, but I think it was more of a Brad Pitt “W” mag photoshoot sensitivity chip missing sort of level than total open warfare on Sandra. Not standing up foe him, thats just how I interpreted it.

  64. ReallyRosie says:

    I agree with every single poster on this thread. BeeBeeDoom: GREAT comment!

    Now I am not adopted, so please consider that when reading my opinion about this please.

    When I grew up it seems that adoption was less common. It was a pretty big deal and looked on as special and in some cases, heroic. I hope that anyone who gets offended by this knows that and considers that it may be brought up over and over again because it is THAT cool 🙂

    Adoption is special. It takes a person of a certain character and strength. I admire people who do it and I kind of like seeing them get honored. Is that wrong?

  65. MrsOdie2 says:

    I know Sandra Bullock loves Jesse James’ kids, especially Sunny, whom she practically raised from infancy. She is probably devastated that this filth will be her stepmother (and probably only for a few years, if that). I doubt she gives a flying fig for Jesse.

  66. MissVJJ says:

    No Sandra!!! Please stay away from the Botox and plastic sugery!!! You dont want to end up looking like Kat!!

  67. JenJen says:

    I guess the bangs are real.

  68. Trippin says:

    Let’s just hope the media doesn’t make another Jennifer Aniston out of her, with all the public pity still going on 5 years later. I’ve always liked Sandra’s spunk and I think she’s stronger. She may not have looked happy but it’s still early days. She picked a dog with too much ink and too much dink outside their marriage. Thankfully he’s latched on to Kat who shares a similar moral compass. For Sandra it can only get better. Plus she has a cute little man in her life who will always love her. She’ll be fine. Jesse still has some karma coming his way. Plus who could cuddle up with a man who collects Nazi memorabilia?!
