Sandra Bullock

She won her first Oscar earlier this year for her role in The Blind Side, but her world came to a screeching halt just nine days later, when she was blindsided by news of her husband Jesse James' affair with Michelle "Bombshell" McGee, a tattooed online model. As more mistresses came forward with stories of James' infidelity, the actress went into seclusion. On April 28, People broke the shocking news that Sandra was indeed filing for divorce -- and had secretly adopted a baby boy, born in New Orleans. The new single mom says she's "sad and scared" about the end of her marriage, but she looks happy to start her new life with Louis Bardo Bullock, her adorable 3½-month-old son.
