Sandra Bullock is often regarded as "the girl next door" with her natural beauty and charm. She has certainly added new meaning to the term "America's Sweetheart." She has won over scores of moviegoers with her exuberant portrayals of ordinary women in extraordinary circumstances. Unlike many, Sandra got an early start in her acting career. Born to a vocal coach father and an opera singer mother, Sandra traveled to Germany each year with her mother for the opera season. She liked to be on stage with her mother and appeared in several performances.
In 1994, Sandra starred in the blockbuster film, Speed, and she emerged from behind the bus driver's seat to become one of the leading ladies in Hollywood. With all doors wide open for her, the dark-haired, dark-eyed beauty continues to be the person "Most Likely to Brighten Your Day," as her high-school classmated voted her many years ago.
