Would a Sandra Bullock-Jesse James re-unionkill the actress's career? While rumors that the couple will be getting back together should be ignored, according to Sandra's rep, who confirms the divorce is indeed moving forward, we are jusr curious if all the public support and sympathy Sandra received during the horrible cheating scandel would vanish if she and Jesse became pals again. So, we asked experts and celebrities.
**********Their answers****
"Sandra and Jesse are talking." a friend of the actress confirms, "most of the conversations are focused on the children, but occasionally Jesse makes her laugh and they forget for a second what he did to her. Of course, Sandra misses him. You don't just stop loving someone because they cheated. The divorce is definitely still on, but could I see them getting married down the road ? It's not impossible." Although it's the last thing on her mind at the moment, sources say that Hollwood power players are nervous about the impact any sort of reunion would have on Sandr's career.
PopEater columnist Jo Piazza explains, "The American public is very careful with their sympathy. They are indulging in Sandy's scorned woman narrative, and right now they are squarely on her side. But if she flips this script and returns to what we know is a bad marriage , all of that goodwill and love will go out the window faster than you can say Nazi sympathizer." "It will also harm her whitin the industry, as pairing with Jesse makes her extremely vulnerable and volatile , and no director or studio wants that kind of liability behind one of their actress," she adds, "Jesse will only serve to destabilize her career."
Piazza is not alone in her thinking. Publicist-to-the- Kelly Brady of Broadway Creative agrees.
Right now, everyone is on Sandra Bullock's side. She's America's sweetheart and they are rooting for her to move on with her life and to stay strong," she says."If Sandra got back with Jesse, I don't think the public would uderstand. He publicly humiliated her and she will struggle to regain the public's respect if she were to go back to him."
However, not all of the experts agree.
Paula Froelich, New York Tmes best-selling author of "Mercury in Retrograde,' argues, "If she waits long enough and he's changed, all is forgiven. A lot of women have taken back their cheating husbands, especially when a baby is involved."
Paul Dergarabedian, president of Hollywood.com box office division makes a simiar argument, telling me: Saying I think people would feel as they would feel as they would if their sister got back together with someone they didn't like. Shocked and angry at first, then a cautious wait-and-see attitude followed by an understanding that it's ultimately her life and her decicion."
Ultimately, no one puts it better than our friend, the Diane Sawyer of entertainment news, Lara Spencer. The Insider' host says, "I don't think that it wouls effect her career. She has solidified her place as an iconic actress and total sweetheart, and if she feels he deserves a second chance, who are we to judge?"
My spin: Careful walking on trouble waters Sandra...you was warned by one of his mistress that he will never change, he like the notoriety and like to push it to the limit just to see if he can get away with it....
As much as I believe in marriage, Sandra is making a big mistake if she takes this man back. Whether, today, next week or even next year.
ReplyDeleteShe has almost, if not the entire nation on her side in regards to how he treated her with the skanks he cheated with. But that will come crashing down the moment she takes him back, IF she ever does of course.
This man won't change his spots. He wants his cake and eat it too.
If they are talking together in regards to the children and what's best for them-no doubt they miss Sandra, ok. No problem. But anything past that...
I guess we will have to wait and see what happens on this story.
