Sandra Bullock: 'I'm So Not Winning an Oscar!'
Originally posted 02/06/2010 08:00PM
Sandra Bullock has news for anyone waiting to see her give an acceptance speech at the Academy Awards – don't hold your breath.
"I'm so not winning an Oscar," Bullock, who received her first-ever nomination, as best actress for The Blind Side, told reporters at the Santa Barbara International Film Festival Friday, where she received the American Riviera Award for her influence on film.
Bullock considers herself an expert oddsmaker for the annual awards show, so she has strong feelings about her own chance for victory. "Nine times out of ten I always pick who's going to win," the actress, 45, said. "And I already know who's going to win. I'm not going to say, but nine times out of ten, I'm right."

Gabourey Sidibe to Justin Timberlake: Be My Oscar Date!
Originally posted 02/03/2010 03:40PM
Following her Oscar nomination this week for Best Actress, Precious star Gabourey Sidibe is now facing a tough decision: Who to bring to the March 7 ceremony.
That's not to say that the actress, 26, hasn't been giving this some thought already. "I want to make Justin Timberlake and [The Hurt Locker actor] Anthony Mackie fight it out for the honor of being my date," Sidibe told the Canadian entertainment TV show eTalk this week. "I'm just going to throw them in the ring and make them do it!"
But if Sidibe had to narrow it down to one guy, her heart is set on Timberlake. At one point during the interview, Sidibe turns toward the camera and makes her direct appeal. "Justin," she says, "if you're not doing anything on that night, maybe you could be my date or something. It's fine. No pressure!" (What would his girlfriend Jessica Biel think?)

Quentin, meet Oscar.
"Wow! This honor gives me such tremendous satisfaction," writer-director Quentin Tarantino said in a statement after his World War II drama Inglourious Basterds picked up eight Academy Awards nods – including Best Picture, Best Director, Best Supporting Actor and Best Screenplay – on Tuesday morning.
While the ensemble cast includes Brad Pitt and Diane Kruger, Austrian actor Christoph Waltz earned a Best Supporting Actor nomination for his performance as a diabolical, and multilingual, Nazi officer.
