"As a young girl growing up in New Orleans, if anyone would have told me I was going to win 14 People's Choice Awards I...I mean 12, yes. 13, maybe. But 14?" joked DeGeneres, host of "The Ellen DeGeneres Show," who said that she wanted to make the show for everyone from old, young, black, white, guy and straight.

"These arrogant Hollywood snobs"

This was the Peoples Choice Awards, picked by the fans, the Hollywood snobs don't have anything to do with it.

But, the reality show Dog Whisperer did win a people's choice award and was nominated for a emmy but that was a very popular show, lasting 12 seasons. Do you think Duck Dy will last 12 years?

No, she’s a liberal.
She might keep her politics quiet, but Sandra Bullock is a liberal.

She originally didn’t want the lead part for “The Blind Side” precisely because the role was for a conservative. Then she did some research and was shocked that conservatives actually do good things - then she took the part.

Still not convinced - maybe she was afraid that taking that part would “out” her as a conservative!

There's also this from Breitbart:

"...Sandra Bullock has always been beyond reproach. She has used her savvy, intelligence, charisma, and contagious, self deprecating sense of humor as an actress, producer, daughter and wife, while keeping her private life as private as possible. Being a HUGE movie star while maintaining that air of mystery is a quality that is so missed in the industry. She has shown tremendous intelligence in choosing her roles and crafting her career. (Well, except for “What About Steve”…and oh, wait…”The Lake House.” But everyone has a career blunder here and there). When her then-husband’s affair made all the headlines and TV news lead ins, she held her head high while maintaining a low profile; and demonstrated gracious stoicism when her mother was ill and died."

Sandy is hot....

Which makes suprising that there is no photographic evidence of such on this thread.

I have a pornographic memory so I didn’t offer proof to support much case.

I’ll stipulate to your profer and rest my case.
