I’ve always liked Sandy. I liked her when she drove an explosive bus. I liked her when she went to rehab. Wow, she’s done some bad movies. She just seems like she’d be fun to have a glass of wine with, and tell a few dirty stories. She’s still America’s Sweetheart to me. I know Julia’s supposed to be, but she seems like she might be complicated and get a little cranky now and then. Anyway, Sandra’s denying she’s with child.

People:

Sandra Bullock is many things – wife, big-screen superstar, part-time Texan – but she’s definitely not pregnant, according to her rep.

The actress and husband Jesse James are laughing off rumors that they’re expecting a child, saying in a statement to PEOPLE: “We are not with child, but we are pregnant with ideas.”

Meanwhile, Bullock, 42, and James, 37, have been keeping busy with other endeavors: Earlier this month the couple (who married in July 2005) celebrated the opening of Bullock’s first restaurant, an upscale eatery called Bess in Austin, where they have a home.

I hope to God one of those ideas they’re pregnant with is for that tattooed mechanic sexy thug husband of hers to continue to wear a lot of sleeveless t-shirts and look angrily at the camera as he fixes cars. Because that idea’s in the “Good” column.
