Sandra Bullock Adopts New Baby..& Divorces Hubby!

Sandra Bullock with her new adopted child

She certainly doesn't do things in halves! Sandra Bullock not only filed for divorce from her cheating husband, Jesse James, but she has shocked Hollywood by revealing she has an adopted son.

The 45 year old Oscar winner brought home 3month old baby Louis Bardo in January prior to the breakdown of her marriage to Jesse James.  The boy was born in New Orleans and the adoption process began four years ago.  The couple took custody of the boy just weeks after his birth and the couple decided to keep the news a secret until after the Oscars when the terrible news broke....

How funny that art should imitate life.  Sandra won an Oscar for her leading role in, The Blind Side, a true story about a mother who adopts a homeless African-American boy who becomes a successful football star.

It's so sad that Sandra couldn't enjoy her success, new baby and family life before tragedy struck and the news of Jessie cheating came to light.  What's worse it was only 10 days after the Oscars when the first "mistress" went public.  The tattoo model claimed a 11 month affair with Jesse.  11 months is a longggggggggggggg time...

Sandra did an exclusive interview with People magazine talking about her decision to end her five year marriage, "I'm sad and I am scared."

When asked about whether Jesse cheated on her she said she had, "no idea about anything." And added, "I did the only think I could do, and that was to pack enough clothes to live on, get all of Louis' things and get out of town.  My main concern was Louis."

Louis, is named after jazz artist Louis Armstrong.  She said, He's just perfect, I can't even describe him any other way.  All I said when I met him was 'Oh, there you are.'  It was like he had always been a part of our lives."

Jessie checked into a treatment facility to address, "personal issues" and he was spotted recently near his home without his wedding ring on.  When she was asked about Jessie's parenting role with Louis she said, "I will be adopting as a single parent.  Anything else will be taken day by day."

Jessie told People magazine, "The decision to let my wife end our marriage and continue the adoption of Louis on her own, has been the hardest.  The love I have for Louis cannot be put into words."

Just when her career reaches its ultimate peak this happens. Good going Jesse! 

Well, I wish Sandra all the best. Although her marriage is over (sad face) at least she can say that a beautiful child has come out of such a awful situation (happy face). That child is georgous beyond words!

Would YOU Shake Hands???

Wayne Bridges (l) John Terry...if only Wayne knew!

A few weeks ago I told you about the two feuding footballers, John Terry and Wayne Bridges, over Terry's affair with Bridges ex-bird Vanessa.

Well, although the news stories have calmed down, Wayne recently announced he did NOT want to be considered as a team-player for England team World Cup matches and instead would "make himself unavailable".  Errr why?!?!

REALLY??? Most players would absolutley DIE to represent their country. Playing for England is the highest step of a person's football career - both personally, professionally and I'm sure financially too. I don't mean to be harsh on the poor lad, but GROW SOME FRIGGING BALLS MATE! It was an awful thing that happened, and I could only imagine how bruised and battered Bridges feelings (and ego!) must feel.  Though saying that, whatever differences you have with a work colleague - you put them aside.  There are thousands of people that suffer humilation, embarrassment, hurt and other awful things in the workplace but do they take the day off work? Or wish to be excused from a team project in fear of working with their feuding colleague. HELL NO. 

 Vanessa, the woman that broke Waynes ♥...

These kind of incidents separate the boys from the men.  Bridges decision to remove himself from the England squad has shown him to be quite a weak person.  Maybe he should take advice from the saying, "What doesn't break you, only makes you stronger." Because Bridges, if there's one thing about life you can't run away from your problems.

 Terry silencing the boos from the crowd..er like he doesnt deserve it!?

So the question to you is, would you have done the same and withdrawn from the England team or would you have sticked to your guns and played for the team?

PS. Both Terry and Bridges met yesterday afternoon for a game - Bridges refused to shake Terry's hand, something I agreed with and would have definately done the same! Would you?

Cheryl Splits from Husband, Ashley

 Cheryl & Ashley Cole in happier times...

Surprise suprise - Cheryl Cole announced today she's separating from her husband. Shocked? Nope, me neither!

After flying out to the US following all those tabloid tales about Ashley cheating on her, she flew back into the UK today announcing the heartbreaking news.  

Chezza arriving at Heathrow today..♥ the bag Chez!

Her spokespeople released a statement to the press and on Twitter stating that "Cheryl Cole is separating from her husband Ashley Cole":-

Statement released on Twitter

The other four members of Girls Aloud are, "Supporting Cheryl in private".  Their spokesman added. Uh-huh...bet they knew all along!

The Coles met in 2004 and married two years later.  2008, was when the cracks started to appear when the first allegations of Ashley's infidelity emerged.  

Despite all of that hoo-haa, Cheryl stood by her man, and what happens? More claims surrounding his cheating appear.  No wonder Cheryl jetted off to US to get away from it all. No surprising that she happened to be pictured with the US hotty, some American dancer called Derek Hough, who appears in the video for her latest single.  And who can blame her? 

The dancer has apparently been "comforting" the popstar during her stay in the US...uh huh!

Her first single shouldn't have been called Fight for this love -  more like Quit fighting,I'm done!  Apart from marriage, there's nothing else holding Cheryl back.  She has no children with Ashley, she's young, beautiful, talented, has a successful career...the world is her oyster.  Why should she hang around with someone who (allegedly) has no respect for her to repeatedly cheat on her over and over and over and over again?

..tacky much?!

 

They say once a cheat, always a cheat. I believe in second chances- EVERYONE deserves a second chance.  Everybody is human.  BUT (and that's a very very big BUT) when someone repeatedly cheats on you, how much longer can you put up with it?  Love? That's not love. As Rhi Rhi once said, "Love doesn't hurt" physically, nor should it hurt emotionally either.  It's a tough situation to be in as once the trust is broken within a relationship, it's very hard to mend. 

Ashley, hope it was worth it...judging by these pics of the girls he allegedly cheated on Chezza with...I don't think so!)

Ashley has been linked with Alexandra Taylor (l) & Ann Corbitt who claims she slept with him while he was on tour in US

Who could forget "hairdresser" from Sutton Aimee Walton (l), glamour model Sonia Wild and Club Secretary Vicki Glough (r)...what a bunch of mingers!

Tiger Admits He's Sorry

Tiger Woods at Sawgrass Golf Club today 

Today, Tiger Woods issued a public statement to millions of viewers.  This is the first time he has spoken publicly since allegations of affairs with at LEAST 12 women emerged.

It has been described by several media outlets, sports pundits and others as an "extraordinary" apology..and so it should!

Tiger talking to the world..finally!

The biggest sports-star in the world begged for forgiveness, announcing he will start a new life of "integrity".  He admitted he had bitterly disappointed his family, friends and fans.

He leapt to his wife, Elin's defence, insisting she had never attacked him, like it had been reported by the media.  Instead, he said that she should be praised for her "grace and poise" rather than be blamed. He said:-  

I know I have bitterly disappointed all of you. I have made you question who I am and how I could have done the things I did. I am embarrassed I have put you in this position. For all I have done, I am so sorry. I have a lot to atone for."

Tiger apologising

In his statement, he said "sorry" several times acknowledging his behaviour as "selfish" and "foolish".  He said:-

"I have let you down. I have let down my fans. For many of you, especially my friends, my behaviour has been a personal disappointment. For those of you who work for me, I have let you down personally and professionally."

Although his wife was not present, his mother was seated in the front row who he embraced after the 13 minute and a half public apology.

 Elin shown yesterday in Florida..apparently her wearing "Nike" is showing her husband support (one of his sponsers)

Personally, I think this was the best thing for Tiger to do.  I have listened to media reports, journalists, PR gurus etc etc expressing their own opinions on the matter. Many have stated that Tiger should have had a Question & Answer press release or perhaps a Sit down interview with Oprah.

Are you outta your mind?! The man looked like he was struggling reading from his piece of paper - never mind being hounded by journalists. Letting him answer questions would be feeding him to a pack of wolves - the man could not ever handle that kind of intergration, even if it was from someone as sensitive or kind as Oprah.

This was the best move for Tiger - though in my opinion it was a little late. This should have been done at least one month ago. Although, would Tiger have agreed to this? Strangely the man still seems to believe that the press should leave he and his family alone.  He was careful in his wording but he stressed that now he and his wife should be left alone to sort out their marriage problems.

What planet do you live on Tiger??!?? You are a sports-star living in the public eye - there is NO SUCH THING AS PRIVACY!!! If a celebrity, sport-star, politician or any other human being living in the public eye can not learn from Tiger Wood's situation, then they need a big REALITY CHECK.

Tiger Woods doing what he knows best

No amount of beauty, popularity, money, class or common sense will stop the media reporting scandals. The sooner these celebrities learn to deal with this - the better they will be at dealing with scandals.

Footballer Cheats on Wife (Again!)

 Ashely Cole and Cheryl Cole in happier times...

Ashley, Ashley, Ashley.  What is wrong with you??? Once again, the papers have got wind that Chelsea footie star Ashley Cole has allegedly been cheating on his wife, Cheryl Cole.

The secretary...and the wife...good gosh Ashley what have you (allegedly!) done?!? 

Apparently, he bedded a blonde secretary late 2008.  She sold her story to the press and also supplied pics too...an image of Ashley Cole's torso in white boxers...*blank face* 

The story broke just hours before Cheryl was due to perform at the BRITS..just the news you want to hear when you're due to perform on stage at one of the country's biggest musical events of the year.  Perfect timing Ash!  Not only was Cheryl's outfits she chose to perform in ill-fitting and unflattering but she her lip synching was 3 seconds behind the backing track.  The performance, well put it this way, it wasn't her best.  No thanks to her hubby's (alleged)  cheating.

Cheryl's performance at the BRITS..truly AWFUL..poor lamb had loads on her plate so we'll forget it ever happened :-)

So what happens now? Who knows. This is the fourth allegation that has appeared in the papers about Ashley's alleged cheating.  Firstly there were the gay stories with a famous DJ, then a hairdresser from sutton sold her story and now this.  As Cheryl so rightly named her album "Three Words", Ashley Cole, 3 words for you..."SORT IT OUT!" 

And just to remind both Ashley and Cheryl how much they are both worth...

These sports-stars eh??? You couldn't trust them as far as you could throw 'em!
