Sad Sandra Bullock Is Putting the Blame on Herself

By Rob Shuter Posted Mar 31st 2010 08:22AM

Sandra Bullock is going through torment dealing with the Jesse James cheating scandal, and now like many before her, a friend of the star tell me she's turning the blame inward. Oh, Sandra, we feel for you! Just don't let that chump get you down. Details on Sandra's state of mind, plus Lindsay Lohan movie scoop ... after the jump!

Heartbroken Sandra Feels Like She Failed

Now that two weeks have passed since Sandra Bullock learned the horrible news from her publicist that her husband Jesse James was about to be outed as a cheater, the Oscar-winning actress is no longer feeling angry and hurt. Friends of the star tell me what she is now feeling is that she failed.

"When a marriage ends, no matter what the circumstances, you always ask yourself, 'What could I have done differently?' That is exactly what Sandra is doing right now," a close friend of the star tells me. "Sandra feels like she failed. Like she was away from home too much filming instead of being a stay-at-home wife."

I hope these feelings pass quickly, but I understand that, despite her fame, fortune and movie star good looks, at the end of the day Sandra is just like the rest of us. Her friend also says: "Sandra is scared of being all alone."

You might be alone physically, Sandra, but know that most of the public is there with you and on your side.

Heidi's Star Power Bigger Than Lindsay's?

A Hollywood casting director told me yesterday that Lindsay Lohan's recent erratic behavior is making it next-to-impossible for her to get a job on a movie set any time soon.

"Lindsay hasn't worked for a long time, and I don't see that changing anytime soon," the casting director tells me. "It's very hard to get her insurance and no studio or director is going to hire her without it."

That's been a recurring problem for Lindsay, but what the casting director said next is perhaps the most shocking statement of all.

"At this point, Heidi Montag is likely to make more movies than Lindsay Lohan." Ouch.

Cosmo Editor Wants to Murder Jesse James

New York Times bestselling author and Cosmopolitan's editor-in-chief, Kate White, returns to the shelves with her brilliant thriller, 'Hush.' But when Kate isn't searching for the hottest celebrity hunks to feature in Cosmo or penning page-turning novels, sometimes she daydreams. She recently told me: "If I could murder one celebrity, my first instinct is to say Spencer Pratt. But killing him would give the guy far more attention than he deserves. So I'd have to go with Jesse James. If we were playing 'Clue,' the killer would be Ms. White in the 'Monster Garage' with a poisoned tattoo needle."

Now you know why she sells so many books.

This guy saw Bullock as a professional and personal goal. He's been there, DONE that. Now it's time to move on.

By tina

Since I don't consider Pratt a celeb... Just a DWEEB, the mention of his name was not needed.

By bob

Bullock is a nice perosn (seems like) and a little self-examination on what may have been done wrong and mistakes made is a good idea...don't know about "blaming hereself", but some self-review is good! Not enough do it in this blame the other guy all the timke world we live in...we blame others because we
are fat, or druggies, or criminal or whatever...
good girl Sandra..don't blame others...make better choices next time and send this mistake on down the trail!

By Sue

NOTHING Sandra said or did could change who Jesse is and what he did. It has nothing to do with her. It's all about his character. It's all about why would he jeopardize a marriage and family life. Why would he humiliate his wife and disrespect his marriage. He's damaged. Nothing about Sandra would have made a difference. Run and don't look back. girl.

My thoughts exactly Bob. This world was a much better place to live when people accepted the consequences of their actions. Nowadays, most people think they can do whatever they want and get angry when they have to deal with the repercussions. It's always someone else's fault no matter what it is you've done. It used to be that, even though psychiatrists pushed it, you couldn't blame everything on your parents. Now, you can blame a lot of it on them because parents are not teaching their children right from wrong, how to act in public, morals, hard work ethics, etc., and they let them have whatever they want because it's so much easier than saying "no". Good character is a thing of the past. That being said, Mrs. Bullock seems to have good character by questioning herself. However, once she's through this faze she needs to step back and realize that her husband is definitely at fault because, whether she was home or not, he took a vow to be faithful. If it wasn't working out for him, he should have talked with her about it and then divorced her if he still wasn't happy.

The only mistake Sandra made was to not keep walking when she met him.

Maybe somehow she thought that marrying someone "outside" of her world would be a perfect match.

Too bad she married someone who is not from the world, period.

By Maria

she never feel like it's her fault, She gave him the trust to be alone and he betrayed that trust.True the only mistake she did was not keep walking...

your wrong if sandra was fullfilling his needs he wouldn,t need to go any place else. she should shoulder the lions share of the blame

By Di

Sandra Bullock looks smarter than blaming herself for her cheating husband. And look at what kind of people he used to marry to and involved with!

By bill

"trash barrel" and someone "outside her world" are pretty good descriptions of that guy.

By redhottamales

If that is true that Sandra is scared of being alone then join the legions of women who are over the age of 40 and not married or they are divorced. It can be lonely at times. And the more of a power house of a woman you are the harder it is to find a man that will love you for yourself and not your fame and money. Sheryl Crow is a good example of just giving up on getting married and having children. She adopted a son and she has her career and she just kept trucking after her engagement to Lance Armstrong flopped. It is a whole new era out there ladies. Men are not what they used to be. And the skanky women out there are most of the problem. They look for men who have money and jump in bed with them to either have a kid by them so they can get child support, or they hope to get set up as a mistress with a car and a condo and an allowance, or the man will leave his wife and marry them, or just so they can sell intimate details of the affair to the rag magazines. What a bunch of dopes - both the men and the skanks.

here are a few punctuation marks... , , , . l.. ; ; ; use a few next time.

By tony

damn girl who crapped in your wheaties

Hey Roro, are you trying to be a smartazz about her punctuation or mad because SHES' RIGHT!!

By MAGOOS

Sandra Bullock is cherished as one of our most popular actresses, a person who truly married for the right reasons and wanted it to last. She has work demands that take her on location; James knew that when he married her. His adulterous behavior and betrayal of his wife in no way reflects on this beautiful and talented woman. His pathetic need to behave this way is no reflection on Sandra Bullock. She has not failed; he is the failure and one day, if not now, he will realise just how stupid he is. She is worth better and one day indeed find a person who appreciates who she is.

By brucewendelg

amen,couldn't have said it better.

By A Blast From Your Past

I really feel bad for you Sandra .... I know what its like to give your trust and love to some one only to betray .... Wish I could help you some way in getting over this, it took me years and blame my self, But what ever you do dont do that to your self ... Its a hard part of life to have to go through .... Hang in There , Wishing Ya The Best !!

By roB SHUTER

By monte

By Rebecca

HELLO! WTF are you talking about? First of all, it's thier, not there. Second of all, nobody's actions can be blamed on another person, people do what they want and the rest is just excuses. Thanks for your backwards view of life though, just keep it to yourself next time, thanks.
