Bullock & London premiere has been canceled due to extramarital allegations. The stories suggest that her husband Jesse James has been cheating on her. Tattoo model Michelle “Bombshell” McGee spilled the news.

“I would never have hooked up with him if I thought he was a married man. He gave me the impression they were separated,” Michelle McGee said in a statement.

McGee claims she had an affair with James for 11 months while his wife was on location shooting “The Blind Side.” McGee also said that Jesse James told her that he and his wife had split. The model asked questions but James never gave her a straight answer.

“He wanted to watch movies, but I asked him, ‘What’s going on with you and Sandra?’ He said, ‘She doesn’t live here. She has a house in Austin. She is filming, and I can’t talk about it’.”

The model claims she first met James when she approached him about a possible job. They started exchanging information via email. Then he invited her to meet him at his Orange County headquarters, gave her a tour of his monster garage, and invited her back into his office.

The scandal hit as Sandra Bullock was about to attend the British premiere of “The Blind Side.” As a result, the event was canceled. The red carpet screening of the hit movie was due to take place next Tuesday, March 23.

Previous Relationships, Jesse James, and Female Stalker

Sandra Bullock was once engaged to actor Tate Donovan, whom she met while filming Love Potion No. 9. Their relationship lasted four years. She has dated football player Troy Aikman, musician Bob Schneider, and actors Matthew McConaughey and Ryan Gosling.

Bullock married motorcycle builder and Monster Garage host Jesse James on July 16, 2005. They met when Bullock arranged for her ten-year-old godson to meet James as a Christmas present. The couple started dating afterwards.

Bullock has been a public supporter of the American Red Cross. She has donated $1 million to the organization. In 2010, she donated $1 million to relief efforts in Haiti following the devastating Haiti earthquake.

In October 2004, Bullock won a multimillion-dollar judgment against Benny Daneshjou, the builder of her Lake Austin, Texas home. The jury ruled the house was uninhabitable. It has since been torn down and rebuilt.

The actress also owns a house on Tybee Island. The house is just a few miles from Savannah, Georgia. In 2009, she purchased a home in the historic Garden District neighborhood of New Orleans.

On April 22, 2007, a woman was lying outside James and Bullock’s Southern California home in Orange County. When James confronted the woman, she ran to her 2004 silver Mercedes, got behind the wheel, and tried to run James over. The woman is said to be an obsessed fan of Sandra.

The woman, Marcia Diana Valentine, was arrested on investigation of assault with a deadly weapon. In May 2007, Bullock won a three-year restraining order against the woman. Valentine pleaded not guilty to charges of aggravated assault and stalking.
