Sandra Bullock isn’t too concerned about finding the perfect gown and jewelry to wear to the Oscars. She admitted this week that she still doesn’t know what she plans to wear to the ceremony, for which she’s considered the front-runner to win the Best Actress Oscar.
At this week’s Oscar Nominees Luncheon, a prestigious photo-op event in and of itself, Bullock confided to reporters, “I’m so behind. Today was the first day that I actually saw one dress and then looked at some sketches.”
Bullock is nominated this year for her role in the football drama, The Blind Side. She is very clear that she puts her confidence in her coterie of designers, leaving them to make the dress and jewelry decisions look stunning. “I’m pretty good about finding something and sort of circling around it and then I’m oddly relaxed about it because it’s someone else’s job to finely stitch thousands of pleats and jewels into a gorgeous thing to make you look divine.”
Bullock is known for her massive appeal to audiences across the globe. She has a broad spectrum of supporters in Hollywood and the Academy, who consider Hollywood’s “nice girl”. She is massively understated, also, when it comes to finding her Oscar gown and jewels. “Look, if I have to wear a trash bag I’ll belt it with rhinestones and I’ll make it work…But the one thing I saw, that’s a work of art.” Everyone’s waiting to see what designers Bullock chooses.
