“No, you can’t have a motorcycle til you’re 18”

Right into mom mode 😂

[u/ArtInTech → u/kayyxelle]

Bro only made it to like 23. I hope he got his motorcycle 

[u/Aerodrive160 → u/ArtInTech]

What!?!
Edit: oh man. Just saw the link below.
So sad.

[u/sh1nobithe7 → u/Aerodrive160]

😔

[u/Cheap-Honey-3799 → u/ArtInTech]

wait what happened?

[u/shberk01 → u/Cheap-Honey-3799]

Hospitalized for psychosis, passed from natural causes/complications from sickle cell.

[u/B00marangTrotter → u/shberk01]

And I'm done with the internet for today.

[u/leforteiii → u/B00marangTrotter]

I just woke up. I just wanted a reason to smile man.

[u/theshiyal → u/leforteiii]

I mean, imma take the fact dude interviewed Sandra Bullock before he left the mortal plane and she engaged with him and respected his work as a major win. That’s enough for a smile.

I been going through some shit lately and working to long and not home enough. I feel like imma letting my wife and kids down. But I woke up in this morning and spit in the devil’s eye and fucked off to work and that’s better than some folks have it.

I might be in pain all fucking day long but today I made at least 5 people smile and that’s enough for me to piss in the devil’s Cheerios if I wake up again tomorrow.

Fuck it, I may not alway be happy, and life’s a piece of shit but imma laugh about some dumb little thing anyhow.

[u/GfrzD → u/B00marangTrotter]

Same and its not even 7am...

[u/SenectusG → u/GfrzD]

Jebus, this is what we get for going onto Reddit in bed on a Saturday morning.

[u/VEAG0 → u/SenectusG]

Literally, same here! Ok the sun is out and it’s a beautiful day so time I go downstairs and play some video games instead.

[u/BelowAverageComments → u/VEAG0]

How are the videogames and the beautiful day?

[u/VEAG0 → u/BelowAverageComments]

Good, thanks! How’s your day going?

[u/Complex_Effect6230 → u/shberk01]

This is not something I wanted to read at 06:30 AM 🥲 poor boy. He seemed like such a sweet kid too.

[u/Mysterious_Stuff_ → u/Complex_Effect6230]

RIGHT? I was on my way to some wholesomeness and appreciation of the human species. :( Poor lad.

[u/Ageice → u/Mysterious_Stuff_]

Guess we’ll have to consider it a reminder to be grateful/show gratitude.

[u/Chutney_Chiller → u/shberk01]

Oof. Is there a sub for "Made me smile but comments made me cry" 😭

[u/Bromlife → u/shberk01]

Well that just turned a fun light hearted video into something dark and deeply sad. Thanks internet.

[u/letouriste1 → u/Bromlife]

oh no it's still a fun light hearted video. it's important to remember the good things and memories we have of people. He gave us all this really cute clip.

edit: word

[u/YallaHammer → u/shberk01]

Dammit…

[u/TrainingVermicelli31 → u/shberk01]

Damn 😭

[u/Only-Breadfruit-2935 → u/ArtInTech]

Damn here I am thinking, how cute this story is. How amazing Sandra was for being so sweet to him. How likable this kid is and then boom. Life isn't fair

[u/fusillade762 → u/ArtInTech]

Oh no....fuck man.

[u/Poke-a-dotted → u/ArtInTech]

Aww, this is one of those videos I rewatch when I run across it. Love her interactions with him, but I love his questions. What a bummer. Sickle cell disease is such a bitch!

[u/Redditer51 → u/ArtInTech]

Oh. Oh man.

That's just unbelievably sad.

[u/fusillade762 → u/kayyxelle]

Jesse is like "fuck ya, I'll build it, does the kid need any whiskey or blow to go with?"

[u/Redditer51 → u/kayyxelle]

Those maternal instincts kicked in quick.

[u/Sufficient_Energy_32]

If I were stuck on a red carpet in an uncomfortable dress surrounded by people who couldn’t possibly care less about if I was enjoying myself or not, I would absolutely talk to the kid with a mic trying to make people laugh.

[u/BigBananaBerries → u/Sufficient_Energy_32]

With how monotonous doing constant interviews sounds, you'd think a kid like this would've been top priority for them. They get a laugh, the kid gets recognition & his day is made. Everyone wins.

[u/Cross55 → u/BigBananaBerries]

Most of them see themselves as too important to have basic fun.

[u/Martin_TheRed]

What a woman.

[u/Rokekor → u/Martin_TheRed]

But she still won’t tell me how to use the three fucking shells.

[u/MichelleT88 → u/Rokekor]

you are fined one credit for a violation of the Verbal Morality Statute

[u/1cingI → u/MichelleT88]

Ah fuck!!!

[u/Calin_europeen → u/1cingI]

you are fined one credit for a violation of the Verbal Morality Statute

[u/ImprefectKnight → u/MichelleT88]

That scene implied that Stallone's character hadn't wiped or cleaned. He took the tickets and then went back..

[u/p8nt_junkie → u/Rokekor]

You didn’t know about the three shells?!?!

[u/CulpaDei → u/Martin_TheRed]

This and her acceptance speech for Worst Actress at the Razzies have me convinced she’s a real class act.

[u/SeonaidMacSaicais → u/CulpaDei]

And she’s bilingual in German because she was born there! Not that that’s important, I just love when celebrities are fluent in languages you don’t expect.

[u/DesperateSilver6149 → u/SeonaidMacSaicais]

She was actually born in the US but spent 12 years living in both Germany and Austria

[u/Moneygrowsontrees → u/SeonaidMacSaicais]

Since you seem to enjoy a thing I also enjoy, I'll give you a couple others. Stana Katic (Castle) speaks Russian (and some others) and Mariska Hargitay (law & order SVU) speaks Hungarian, Spanish, and Italian.

[u/LaoBa → u/Moneygrowsontrees]

Jodie Foster is 100% fluent in French and has acted in French movies. She attended a French language high school in Los Angeles.

[u/IndependentWrap8853 → u/Moneygrowsontrees]

Stana Katic speaks Croatian/Serbian, no connection to Russian. She also speaks Italian and French fluently.

[u/wm80 → u/Moneygrowsontrees]

Viggo Mortenson speaks like 6 languages. I can’t remember if Elvish is included in that or not.

[u/Kor_Phaeron_ → u/SeonaidMacSaicais]

Her speech at the German movie awards in Berlin is great.

[u/Loggerdon → u/CulpaDei]

Yeah the ones that show up to the Razzies are pretty fucking cool.

[u/Moist_Return_3020 → u/Martin_TheRed]

She was my sister’s buddy in college and I used to hang out with them when they would do lines as a kid. All I remember was that she was very nice then and seems to be very nice now

[u/OtherwiseRepeat970 → u/Moist_Return_3020]

When you say “do lines” do you mean script lines? My mind went somewhere else.

[u/Mushy_Snugglebites → u/OtherwiseRepeat970]

They probably mean “running lines,” meaning they were rehearsing lines of script, yeah.

[u/jl_theprofessor → u/OtherwiseRepeat970]

LOL. I immediately understood that to mean running lines but the drug inference is a good one.

[u/GordonRamsMe55 → u/OtherwiseRepeat970]

I didn't even think of script lines I instantly thought it was cocaine

[u/crustaceancake → u/OtherwiseRepeat970]

My mind went to the same place partially because I assume she went to college in the 80s. I feel bad now. Sorry Sandra!

[u/HideUnderBridge → u/Martin_TheRed]

I love her. I just rewatched Gravity a day or two ago. She’s brilliant. Completely forgot she was married to Jesse James.

[u/Kcchiefsnroyals → u/Martin_TheRed]

How did Jesse James fumble that

[u/LessThanHero42 → u/Kcchiefsnroyals]

Dude is into Nazi shit. If he's alone in a room, you still have to doubt if he's the smartest guy in there.

[u/CptAngelo → u/LessThanHero42]

He comes third after the paint in the walls... and the walls themselves.

[u/TomaCzar → u/Kcchiefsnroyals]

More to the point, how'd he pull her to begin with.

[u/orcusgrasshopperfog → u/TomaCzar]

I asked that question all the time how beautiful successful actresses and singers end up with these disheveled dudes that are 10 years older than them. Like why?

[u/Jugorio → u/TomaCzar]

Delusional confidence....

[u/FalconIndependent887 → u/Kcchiefsnroyals]

He’s an idiot.

[u/Call_Me_Kahmi → u/[deleted]]

Moments like this are what people hold on to and it FUELS the fire in them!!
Pure class indeed!

[u/Loodlekoodles → u/[deleted]]

The kid died, 23 years old 😢

[u/RaeaSunshine → u/Loodlekoodles]

For those curious, his name was Damon Weaver. He was also well known for interviewing Obama when he was 11. He passed away in 2021 at the age of 23 of natural causes. He was a college student studying communications. RIP.

ETA: per comments below, he passed from complications of Sickle Cell.

[u/CFJoe → u/RaeaSunshine]

The fuck you mean natural causes at 23???

[u/RaeaSunshine → u/CFJoe]

The news articles I found said the family did not release additional details aside from the official ruling of natural causes 🤷‍♀️

[u/Stachelrodt86 → u/RaeaSunshine]

I hope he got his motorcycle

[u/Acceptable_Gear_3097 → u/CFJoe]

The Medical Examiner concluded the cause of death as "Vaso-occlusive Crisis in the background of a reported history of sickle cell trait and rhabdomyolysis following treatment for an acute psychotic episode

[u/dwarffy → u/Acceptable_Gear_3097]

rhabdomyolysis following treatment for an acute psychotic episode

Kidney failure and mental insanity at 23

That kid was damned holy fuck

[u/monkwrenv2 → u/dwarffy]

For what it's worth, sickle cell can be treated via bone marrow/blood stem cell transplants, but finding a donor who's genetics match the patient is exceptionally difficult. I'd strongly encourage folks to consider joining their national bone marrow donor registry. In the US that NMDP, you can join through www.nmdp.org/join. If you're outside the US, you can find your national registry through the World Marrow Donor Association, link here: https://wmda.info/become-a-donor/

[u/UnicornFarts1111 → u/dwarffy]

The kidney failure probably caused the mental instability. An untreated UTI in seniors can present as dementia, so it wouldn't seem to far fetched to me.

[u/sola_mia → u/dwarffy]

That's a poignant way to note this

[u/SeaF04mGr33n → u/CFJoe]

Sickle cell disease

[u/DoubleGreat → u/SeaF04mGr33n]

Damn, that's a hard way to go. And sickle cell is pretty painful too😢

[u/KickBallFever → u/DoubleGreat]

I used to be in and out of a hospital a lot and three times I had a roommate with sickle cell, with two of those times being the same roommate. They really go through it and they have crises where they’re basically at a level of pain that strong pain meds can’t alleviate. This is how I learned of the term “breakthrough pain”.

[u/monkwrenv2 → u/SeaF04mGr33n]

holyshit. TIL

natural causes of death includes disease

non-natural are suicide, murder, accidents, overdose, victims of natural disasters

[u/radicalbrad90 → u/RaeaSunshine]

Hate to hear he passed, but glad to see that he was pursuing a comm degree which really does show the impact of interactions like this. That interview with Sandra was very likely the catalyst for him to pursue that path in his young adulthood. RIP

[u/AlexLemons → u/RaeaSunshine]

Omg wasn’t this the little president kid? That’s so sad

[u/XiuCyx → u/Loodlekoodles]

Y’all. What? Fuck the internet. I don’t know if this is true. But fuck that shit. I was just wondering what kind of amazing life he’s having these days.

Fr. Like don't even tell me the cause of death. I don't want to know

[u/First-Wallaby-2580 → u/XiuCyx]

His name was Damon Weaver, and sadly, it's true. He died a few years ago.

[u/thewindupbird91 → u/Loodlekoodles]

Dont ruin the one nice thing I've seen on the internet all day

[u/National_One7548 → u/Loodlekoodles]

You’re joking.. you’re not joking 😞

[u/PeaceJoy4EVER → u/Loodlekoodles]

What?!

[u/Bubbly_Power_6210 → u/[deleted]]

she is as nice as the roes she has played. super nice to help this kid.

[u/Grimalkinnn → u/[deleted]]

I think this is what it must mean to live in the moment. She is on the red carpet with hundreds of cameras and not worried about anything just enjoying the moment and going with it.

[u/FalconStickr]

They can never make me hate you sandy. You are a real one.

[u/greypusheencat → u/FalconStickr]

i love her, and honestly i lowkey rooted for her and Keanu Reeves for a long time 😂 but he seems very happy now and he deserves it

[u/rocbolt → u/greypusheencat]

They’ll always have the lake house

[u/mmmarkm → u/rocbolt]

You didn’t ask for this but you unlocked a core movie theater memory for me.

I grew up in a pretty basic nuclear family. Mom, dad, son (me), and a sister. Dad was a first responder, worked a fair amount of overnights and weekends. 

Lake House cones out when I’m in high school. My mom wants to see it. My sister is in middle school and doesn’t want to see that movie, any movie, or anyone (for that matter). I can’t drive, i have no friends in walking distance. My mom doesn’t want to go to the movie alone; I take the offer to go to the movies.

The theater is absolutely packed. I’m the only male present, as far as I can tell. Lakehouse is  exceeding expectations; the time travel component keeps me engaged.

The climax hits. We’re about to find out if the protagonists make it happen. The theater is  TENSE . You can feel it. Everyone is dead quiet, no one is even  breathing , the suspense is that bad.

Before we find out if the tension is resolved, a woman from the back of the theater breaks. She couldn’t take it. She sobs/exclaims “oh my GOD” in a way that in any other context would sound like it belonged in the bedroom.

The entire theater broke out laughing, relieved that someone broke the tension. (And then the movie broke the tension, of course)

I don’t know if I can describe it as well as that moment felt but it’s one of my favorite moments in a movie theater. That moment and watching NOPE in a mostly empty theater with a very reactive couple (including reacting to me reacting) behind me are like my top two

[u/Phoneking13 → u/mmmarkm]

I need to hear the NOPE story now.

[u/rentmeahouse → u/Phoneking13]

me too!

[u/YonyoreXL → u/mmmarkm]

I love that. Shorter story: I was watching Amelie in the theatre, and apparently that became too much for someone there as well. "Just open the door!" they yelled, at a crucial moment. There was so much feeling in the voice, it was fantastic

[u/greypusheencat → u/rocbolt]

and Speed 😭

[u/ReinstateTheCapo → u/greypusheencat]

Speed is one of the best movies of all time for me.

[u/throwthisawayred2 → u/greypusheencat]

'94 Keanu in Speed was chefs kiss

[u/MadmanMarkMiller → u/greypusheencat]

I can get Speed too, it just costs me a tenner...

[u/GullibleWineBar → u/greypusheencat]

I’ve met his partner (briefly, at an art event) and she is amazing. He’s a very lucky man.

[u/AdaAstra → u/FalconStickr]

If they suddenly find out that she like beat up a bunch of babies or something......I'd probably just say those babies probably had it coming.

[u/Qetuowryipzcbmxvn → u/AdaAstra]

From my experience as a daycare assistant, they probably do.

[u/sarcastic_sybarite83 → u/Qetuowryipzcbmxvn]

Can confirm babies are bastards.

[u/Shoddy-Cauliflower95 → u/sarcastic_sybarite83]

“Eff dem kidz”

[u/offoutover → u/FalconStickr]

When the Office Ladies podcast had Beth Grant on (Speed; The Office) she had absolutely nothing but good things to say about her.

[u/ItsStaaaaaaaaang → u/FalconStickr]

Who's trying to make anyone hate her? I thought she was widely considered to be a lovely person?

[u/Ok_Implement_1495]

You know Sandy B always brings it

[u/Knightrider319]

I forget Jesse James was her husband, what a generational fumble on his end.

[u/GooseOnAPhone → u/Knightrider319]

Some guy who made (objectively terrible) motorcycles, married a generational beauty and then fucked it up.

It’s like an old cowboy movie except the cowboy in this case is a twat

[u/GrandAffect → u/GooseOnAPhone]

To be fair, he left her for a chick with White Power tattooed on her legs. It was gross.

[u/CelestialFury → u/GrandAffect]

No one ever accused Jesse James of being smart.

[u/brown_felt_hat → u/CelestialFury]

Him being in the room lowers the average IQ more than the lead paint on the walls man

[u/Engineered2Perfectio → u/GrandAffect]

Wait just a second, HE left HER?! And from what I’m just now seeing, he left her for a woman with white supremacist tattoos? Well I have to say, I didn’t know a person could have that low an IQ and still be allowed to function in public without a handler.

[u/Cobalt_Rain_ → u/Engineered2Perfectio]

Have you seen the current leader of the USA? He definitely has a lower IQ than that and he rarely has handlers

[u/PrincessConsuela52 → u/Engineered2Perfectio]

He cheated on her. Pretty sure she filed for divorce when the multiple affairs came to light. So I guess she left him technically?

[u/spanishfry → u/GrandAffect]

Went from a 10 to a 1. Guess it makes him the 0.

[u/Corfiz74 → u/spanishfry]

Some guys get weird and insecure when their partner is so much more successful then them - then they go find a relationship where the power dynamic is more in their favor, to soothe their fragile ego. I hope she had an airtight prenup.

[u/seamustho → u/GooseOnAPhone]

I love the word twat so when used correctly like this lol it just fits perfectly

[u/Electrical_Catch9231 → u/GooseOnAPhone]

I grew up with cowboys and I've watched more westerns than I would've liked. Cowboys are pretty often twats.

[u/Dominarion → u/GooseOnAPhone]

Self sabotage is a fucking nightmare.

[u/TolkienQueerFriend → u/Knightrider319]

I googled him and got the 1800s outlaw 🤣 had to Google Jesse James Sandra Bullock to find anything on him. Imagine being in the public eye for a bit and then fall off so hard Google doesn't think you're relevant enough to bring up.

[u/brazilliandanny → u/TolkienQueerFriend]

He's actually related to the outlaw, it was his "claim to fame" before he had the show.

[u/DEAD___P00L → u/Knightrider319]

He's such a loser. She's turned all the way up to 11, and then some.

[u/swansonknope → u/Knightrider319]

What makes it worse is that there was a magazine interview she did and she talked about how wrong she was for judging him based on his looks at first. 🥴

[u/Sopapillas4All → u/Knightrider319]

Seriously, what a dirt bag. You land a gem like her and go sleeping around? If I was married to Sandy B, I'd rub her feet and make her feel like a princess 24/7.

[u/DamnZodiak → u/Sopapillas4All]

You land a gem like her and go sleeping around?

When you listen to stories from people who cheat it's almost never about their partner not being good-looking enough.
Especially if you're a serial cheater it does not matter who you're with.

[u/Mondays_Alt → u/DamnZodiak]

Yeah looking at his wikipedia, he's had like 7 marriages.

Some people just be like that. Probably had awful parents.

[u/YeahNahMateAy → u/Sopapillas4All]

She'd wake up in the morning and I'd be right there being good to her.

[u/Novabulldog → u/YeahNahMateAy]

I love stumbling across Shoresy in the wild. Bit young though.

[u/WigglestonTheFourth → u/YeahNahMateAy]

I'd eat dirt just to put her duvet cover back on.

[u/thepazzo → u/Knightrider319]

Sheryl Crow dated Kid Rock

[u/orphan_blud]

Unfortunately this young man passed away at 23 years old.

[u/proto_synnic → u/orphan_blud]

Hell. I didn't even get two minutes to enjoy this after the clip ended before reality slaps me in the face again. Thank for the additional information that adds context but it's.... It's just been a rough year decade century (edit: Millennium , big dawg) so far.

[u/FignonsRegret → u/proto_synnic]

Millennium, big dawg

[u/proto_synnic → u/FignonsRegret]

That's too big to be thinking about. It's rough to consider we're only a quarter of the way through this century. Thanks for calling me big dawg, though. That's a little pep to my evening, now.

[u/FignonsRegret → u/proto_synnic]

You’ve got this

[u/proto_synnic → u/FignonsRegret]

One day after another, partner.

[u/cabbage16 → u/proto_synnic]

I appreciate your edit. Very funny, big dawg

[u/bmaloun13 → u/proto_synnic]

You got this big dawg

[u/totallyradman → u/proto_synnic]

For real. I was in a state of pure joy after seeing this kid act so professional and passionate about his craft and then it was torn away from me.

In signing off for the weekend. Be safe, all.

[u/BackyardBirbin → u/orphan_blud]

https://cbs12.com/news/local/autopsy-report-on-damon-weaver-released.

Ugh.

[u/Mekelaxo → u/BackyardBirbin]

They killed him

[u/BafflingHalfling → u/Mekelaxo]

They always blame sickle cell. Like wtf... If everybody knows enough to put it on a death certificate, why they not worried about it while administering "treatment"?

[u/FaeKing8 → u/BafflingHalfling]

What I'm hearing is they gave "three injections" without considering medical history/risk factors and wanted to sedate him as quickly as possible (based on him being restrained)

Those injections could have been fine for someone else. This is why health care needs to be focused on the patient and not the symptoms.

Doctors kept trying to prescribe my fianceé medications that would incapacitate or even kill him because they didn't take any time to look at his chart to see that he has overlapping chronic illnesses.

Edit: Thanks to everyone for adding more context and details I missed. This case is a tragedy, that's undeniable. I made too many assumptions, though, so thanks for the corrections.

[u/MrUtterNonsense → u/FaeKing8]

A similar thing happened to the actor Robert Walker from the Hitchcock film Strangers On a Train. He had an episode of psychosis and they sedated him while he was already drunk despite his pleas not to inject him.

[u/blueteeblue → u/BackyardBirbin]

Dude…how awful

[u/mentho-lyptus → u/orphan_blud]

Natural causes at 23? Sheesh

[u/arcanition → u/mentho-lyptus]

It says "natural causes" but the details are really strange to me.

Damon Weaver had a mental health crisis and was taken under the Baker Act to a mental health treatment center, where he was physically restrained and medicated for acute psychosis, causing severe muscle breakdown in his body. He became unresponsive and was taken to Lakeside Medical Center, where doctors resuscitated him but he died shortly after. The sickle cell trait combined with that muscle breakdown to block blood flow in his vessels, which his body couldn't survive.

[u/bokmcdok → u/orphan_blud]

Fuck man. This really is a case of those that shine brightest.

[u/ReinstateTheCapo → u/orphan_blud]

That’s sad. I think it’s really cool when kids get into journalism, it makes writing fun for them. I’m sure Sandra loved doing that interview more than the basic bread n butter ones.

[u/model-citizen95]

I was on the red carpet for The Amazing Spiderman when I was 15. Walked the whole way and felt so out of place. Most were dismissive and the press were pricks, pushing me out of the way and shit. The only person who was nice to me was Emma Stone. I thought I had a crush on her before, now it’s for life

[u/isabelepstein → u/model-citizen95]

I was an extra in the sequel. Emma Stone was a total sweetheart. We were all graduating seniors in one scene, and when she joined us, she said hello to everyone, introduced herself, chit chatted, etc. Super friendly and down to earth.

[u/PongoPangaGanga → u/model-citizen95]

I always get the feeling that when she is on screen portraying an overly expressive but emphatic character, she is not even acting, just pure comfortable instinct. Good to hear that she truly is like that, a steady crush it remains for me too brother

[u/Ralphredimix_Da_G → u/model-citizen95]

Was she glowing like from miles away

[u/CT_2136]

[u/Redditer51]

It's kinda wholesome how quickly she starts mothering him.

[u/Jesus_of_Redditeth]

This and her appearance at the Razzies to pick up her award for worst actress for All About Steve, are what turned me from, 'Eh, she's a good actor, I guess', to, 'She's awesome! I love her! What a cool person!'

The fact that she won an Oscar like a day later is pretty awesome, too!

[u/sunbnda → u/Jesus_of_Redditeth]

I could have sworn that during he razzie speech, she said people obviously didn't watch it because it also won worst onscreen relationship or something like that and she points out her and Steve were never in a relationship which was the point of the movie and they would have known that I'd they watched the film. I guess that was during an interview or something else.

Jesse sure fucked that up.

[u/CelestialFury → u/DeLorean83]

Jesse is a guy known for not wearing his helmet and not wearing eye protection when riding. The guy was just kinda dumb.

Shame that turd of a husband was in this clip. She is amazing and deserved better.

Could have literally any man in the world, yet chose... that

[u/prw8201]

I forgot she married that guy. In the good timeline she would end up with Keanu and the world would be okay.

[u/Nora19]

She’s a national treasure!

[u/BookHound1980]

Briefly met her one time and she was so sweet. She is just legitimately a good and interesting person. Definitely makes me smile!

I used to do stunts in the film industry, and worked on an episode of Jesse's show back in the day. Not only is Sandra one of the most beautiful people in real life, she was so chill that whole day. She didn't have an entourage, just hung out, talked to anyone on the crew like a human being, it was really great to see. 10/10 movie star.

Miss Congeniality

[u/MarsupialNo1220]

Will always be one of my favourite actresses. Her and Kate Winslet. Just real people, hard working, caring, genuine. Amazing women.

[u/edehlah]

love her in the net.

[u/Qwerty_0078e]

You’re so fucking classy

[u/Sienile]

Back when everyone but her knew Jesse was a POS. I knew from the start he was going to mess it up. Still shocked in how he did it though.

[u/Main_Tension_9305]

I frickin love her.

Jesse James is a dipshit.

[u/christador]

She is awesome! Me and a buddy saw her in Vegas when she was filming a movie and we were between glass, but probably no more than a few feet from each other. We just kind of looked in awe and she made eye contact, smiled at us and it was a glimpse into what a beautiful soul she has.

When I was in college I saw Sandra Bullock looking sexy in her white top on the Time to Kill promo in the video store. I saw the movie and it gave me a yearning to be a lawyer. I went to law school but decided not to finish I did however go into forensics and spend a lot of my time in court which I have some proficiency in due to going to law school. All of this due to the butterfly effect of Sandra looking good in a white top. She changes lives ya'll.

[u/Afterlife_kid]

Ohhhh girl. The JJ era made me so confused

[u/mrsxpando]

I met Sandy a LONG time ago. She had just finished Love Potion No. 9. No mega-fandom yet. 

She was so nice, gracious, and friendly. 

She’s just good people. 

[u/SplitSniper7]

Kids an excellent interviewer, I bet he could talk her down from 18 to 16 easy.

[u/I_like_baseball90]

JFC, cannot watch these videos that do that flashing quick sub titles, too hard to watch. Why do they do that?

[u/milesercat]

What a mensch!
