Aseguran que Sandra Bullock está "irreconocible" por tantas cirugías plásticas, pero su pareja la defiende

Jun 06, 2023

Sandra Bullock saltó a la fama a finales de los 80 y desde entonces se ha convertido en una de las actrices más prolíficas de la industria del entretenimiento. Ya lleva varias décadas de trayectoria en Hollywood y su icónica belleza ha permanecido inalterada, aunque algunos de sus admiradores creen que ha pasado por el bisturí para mantener parte de su atractivo.

Nació el 26 de julio de 1964 en Arlington (Virginia, Estados Unidos) y tiene una hermana menor llamada Gesine Bullock-Prado, que más tarde llegó a ser presidenta de Fortis Films, la productora de Sandra. Su madre era Helga Mathilde Meyer, una cantante de ópera increíblemente exitosa.

Bullock es una actriz ecléctica, por lo que no encaja en un solo género gracias a sus variados talentos. Desde thrillers de suspenso hasta comedias románticas, esta intérprete ha protagonizado una gran variedad de películas y programas de televisión. Entre sus cintas más notables se destacan "Miss Simpatía", "La casa del lago" y "Bird Box".

Sandra dio muestras de su inteligencia desde muy joven, convirtiéndose en una prometedora actriz en la industria del entretenimiento. Persiguió sus pasiones tanto en el campo académico como en su tiempo libre. El impacto que ha tenido en la industria le ha permitido captar una amplia legión de fans y críticos, llevándose a casa una buena colección de premios y galardones.

Sandra Bullock ha sido una figura pública durante casi la mitad de su vida, así que también ha sido objeto de duras críticas, ya sea por su carrera profesional o por su vida personal. En Internet, muchos de sus fans han dicho que se está poniendo irreconocible a medida que envejece. Aunque esa sensación está aumentando entre el público, Bullock encuentra consuelo en su pareja, Bryan Randall, con quien mantiene una relación desde 2015. Sigue leyendo para que descubras más datos sobre las críticas que ha recibido esta actriz, tanto por su aspecto como por su pareja.

En Hollywood, el tema del envejecimiento es uno de los más candentes. Tanto en Internet como en los medios de comunicación tradicionales, las mujeres han sido acosadas a cuenta de los injustos cánones de belleza, recibiendo innumerables críticas por su aspecto. Actrices y personalidades, sobre todo las que envejecen, son objeto de críticas por querer alterar su aspecto mediante cirugías estéticas, en un esfuerzo por disimular su edad.

A sus 58 años, Bullock ha sido objeto de las mismas críticas por parte de los internautas. En Twitter, un usuario la criticó porque supuestamente está "casi irreconocible" en una de sus películas.

"Acabo de ver una película de Sandra Bullock, se me olvidó cómo se llama... La película estaba bien, pero nunca entendí lo que se hizo en la cara. Parece que es cirugía plástica alrededor de los ojos y en las mejillas. ¡Casi no la reconocí!", tuiteó el usuario.

Ese tuit dio inicio a toda una conversación en Internet en la que la gente se hacía eco de la misma opinión.

"Yo dije lo mismo el fin de semana pasado. No pude identificar qué era lo que tenía en los ojos. Después de la película me puse a buscar en Google '¿Qué le pasó a la cara de Sandra Bullock?'. No pude encontrar nada, excepto gente que dejaba comentarios pidiendo que la dejaran en paz porque es guapa. Cielos", comentó otro.

Pero las críticas sobre el aspecto de Bullock son anteriores a ese tuit. En 2012, un usuario describió a la actriz de "Ocean's 8" como "irreconocible", y lo mismo sucedió en otro tuit de 2021, después de que un fan viera "Imperdonable" en Netflix.

En los comentarios de una entrevista que Bullock le concedió a Stephen Colbert en 2022, alguien comparó a la actriz con Madonna, criticando su rostro.

"Es triste ver que Sandra Bullock empezó el mismo camino de Madonna con la cirugía plástica. Pronto estará irreconocible, como la misma Madonna. Muy triste", escribió el usuario.

Bullock adopted her son Louis Bardo Bullock in 2010, but the process of becoming his mother did not happen overnight. Before meeting Louis, Bullock had nearly given up her dream of becoming a mother when she reached her early 40s.

“And then (Hurricane) Katrina happened. Katrina happened in New Orleans and I knew. Just something told me that my child was there. It was weird,” Bullock said in an interview on Today

In 2015, she adopted her daughter, Laila Bullock. Back in May 2020, Bullock and her then-8-year-old daughter appeared in an episode of Jada Pinkett Smith's Facebook Watch talk show, "Red Table Talk," saluting the heroic moms who are helping to keep the country safe, healthy and fed during the current pandemic.

In the same Today interview, Bullock was asked if it was a "coincidence" that she found her daughter Laila, but the actress explained: "It’s Louis’ way. Louis has a very strong way. He’s a fine leader and he led me to Laila."

Bullock then said that she hopes by telling her story, people will know that “there is no endgame.” “There are hundreds and thousands of children that are ready to be your child. You are a forever parent the minute you accept the love of that child,” she said.

Despite being an Oscar-winning actress, Bullock believes that her true calling is to be a mother. She explained: "Being a mom, I finally realized ‘Oh this is what I was supposed to do when I grow up. Not be an actress, to be a mom.’"

Bullock added, “I felt that calling at a very young age but I had to become the mom that I was supposed to be for the kids that were waiting for me.”

Little did she know she would experience great love with a partner eventually, too.

Bullock's first public relationship began when she met co-star Tate Donovan on the set of the 1992 film "Love Potion No. 9." The pair's relationship lasted three years, and they even got engaged before breaking it off in 1995. 

Ten years later, Bullock married Jesse James, a motorcycle builder and host of the Discovery Channel's hit show "Monster Garage." The pair met when Bullock arranged for her 10-year-old godson to meet James as a Christmas present.

Bullock's relationship with former model Randall appeared to be the one, as the actress gave insight into their romance in the last couple of years before his tragic death in 2023. Tragically, Randall passed away on Aug. 5, 2023, after a long battle with ALS or Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, as reported by People.

After a messy divorce with James that ended in 2010, Bullock met Randall when she hired him to take photos of Louis’ 5th birthday back in 2015. Their relationship blossomed, and he became her boyfriend, before going on to become a wonderful father figure to her two kids.

During Bullock's appearance on "Red Table Talk," the actress gushed about her relationship and the family she and Randall had together. She said:

“I found the love of my life. We share two beautiful children — three children, his older daughter. It’s the best thing ever. I don't wanna say do it like I do it, but I don't need a paper to be a devoted partner and devoted mother.”

Family life is important to Bullock, and according to The Hollywood Reporter, it’s one of the main reasons why she is taking a break from acting. Although the actress hasn't officially retired, she hasn't indicated when she’ll be back on the big screen. “I don’t want to be beholden to anyone’s schedule other than my own,” the actress said. Bullock continued:

“I’m so burnt out. I’m so tired, and I’m so not capable of making healthy, smart decisions and I know it.”

Bullock added: “Work has always been steady for me, and I’ve been so lucky. I realized it possibly was becoming my crutch.” Bullock kept “looking for something that was never” there and is now trying to “be OK not having work to validate” her.

While Bullock’s attitude toward getting more has changed over the years, as well as her personal priorities, something that has stayed the same is people have continued to talk about her appearance. Despite typically being busy as an A-list celebrity and full-time mom, Bullock is also known for having one of Hollywood’s hottest celebrity bodies

In 2013, she was lined up among the ranks of Jennifer LawrencePenelope CruzKerry WashingtonChristina Aguilera and many others. Bullock even made it up to No. 3, trailing behind Lawrence and Cruz. At the time, it was revealed that Bullock had been hitting the gym to improve her physique, keeping her beautiful body and figure toned and ready for action-packed scenes.  

Bullock has committed herself to a strict workout routine, the foundation of what is believed to be the various secrets to her very own fountain of youth!

According to Radar Online, the “Ocean’s Eight" actress is deep into the Body By Simone routine, a fitness plan created methodically by her trainer, Simone De La Rue. The regimen combines yoga, pilates and cardio to create long, lean muscles.

“Sandy has completely transformed her body since starting BBS. She puts in an hour a day, six times a week! She is extremely motivated and driven,” the trainer said in a statement. 

While working on the 2013 film “Gravity,” it was revealed at the time that Bullock had added dance as her way to lose weight and be a great addition to her workout routine, Dance Magazine reported.

Biking and running have also been a method of workout that Bullock has added to her already strict routine, a thing she does when she is back in her home in Austin, Texas. 

Aside from this, a well-balanced diet is what has also kept Bullock stay in shape — keeping in mind all those extra carbs and sweets, she has developed a way to still enjoy the beauty of food. 

In an interview with Women’s Health, Bullock also revealed that despite her strict workout plan to make herself feel and live young, she also makes it a point not to starve herself of the things she likes during cheat day — splurging on raw cookie dough, a bowl of Lucky Charms and even Viennese pastry. 

Bullock epitomizes the kind of people whose mantra is “age is just a number,” as her undeniable commitment to staying young has definitely paid off with her healthiness. However, even though Bullock appears to have confidence and a good relationship with her health, that doesn’t mean that others have always been kind to the star in regard to her appearance.

In Hollywood, aging is an especially hot topic. On the internet and in the media, women have been subjected to unfair beauty standards and criticisms about their appearance. Actresses and personalities, especially those who are getting older, are being slammed for resorting to altering their appearance through cosmetic surgeries in an effort to mask their age. 

At 58, Bullock has been subjected to the same criticisms by people on the internet. On Twitter, one user criticized Bullock for allegedly being “barely recognizable” in one of her movies. 

“I just watched a Sandra Bullock movie, forget the name of it… Movie was ok, but for the entire movie I couldn't get over what she did to her face. Plastic surgery around her eyes and cheeks. Made her barely recognizable, yikes!” the user tweeted

The tweet launched a conversation online, with people agreeing with the user’s sentiments. 

“I said the same thing this past weekend. There was something about her eyes that I couldn't put my finger on. After the movie I was Googling 'What happened to Sandra Bullock's face?' Couldn't find anything except people leaving comments to leave her alone, she's beautiful. Jeez,” another echoed

Criticisms about Bullock’s appearance came even before the tweet surfaced. One user in 2012 described the “Ocean’s 8” actress as “unrecognizable,” and so did another tweet from 2021 after a fan watched “The Unforgivable” on Netflix. 

In the comments of an interview Bullock did with Stephen Colbert in 2022, someone likened the actress to Madonna in another criticism about her face. 

“It's sad to see that Sandra Bullock has started down the Madonna road of plastic surgery. Soon, she will be unrecognizable just as Madonna is now. Very sad,” a user wrote

Bullock no pudo evitar sentirse triste por la forma como la gente percibía su rostro envejecido. En una entrevista con InStyle, citada por la revista Allure, la actriz reveló la razón por la que sus mejillas se veían más llenas en los Oscar de 2018. Por aquel entonces, las conversaciones en Internet señalaban que Bullock se había "rellenado la cara". Resulta que en ese momento estaba enferma y tuvo que salirle al paso a una fuerte gripe para poder asistir al prestigioso evento.

"Me afecta, porque no me siento segura cuando me visto para ir a la alfombra roja. No soy ese tipo de persona que sabe cómo manejarse en ese ambiente. Intento imitar a Beyoncé, siempre hago la misma pose. Trato de no tenerle miedo a ese tipo de cosas, pero igual me indigno y pienso: '¿Cómo pueden escribir esto?", le dijo a la revista.

A pesar de esos comentarios, Randall, su pareja desde hace 8 años, la ha protegido de sus detractores y hasta de los paparazzi. Mientras cenaba con sus padres y con Bullock en Hollywood, Randall se mostró muy paciente cuando la actriz se puso muy incómoda al ser fotografiada y filmada por los paparazzi. Incluso abrazó cariñosamente a Bullock mientras bloqueaba la vista del fotógrafo, llegando a consolarla mientras ella intentaba pasar una noche normal sin tantas distracciones.

En muchas ocasiones se ha dicho que Randall y Bullock mantienen una relación muy sólida, e incluso han descrito a Randall como "un verdadero caballero". La pareja aún no se ha casado, pero independientemente de si lo hacen o no, Bullock mantiene algunas creencias firmes.

"No necesito firmar un papel para ser una buena compañera y una madre abnegada. No necesito que me recuerden que siempre debo estar presente. No necesito que me digan que capee el temporal con un buen hombre", le dijo a Us Weekly en 2021.
