Sandra Bullock and Ryan Reynolds Had a Hilarious Sing-Off For Betty White's 98th Birthday


Sandra Bullock, Ryan Reynolds, and Betty White all starred in the 2009 romantic comedy The Proposal, and it seems they’ve kept in touch since then. Exhibit A: This truly hilarious video Reynolds posted of himself and Bullock for White’s 98th birthday on Friday, January 17. The clip starts with the two actors singing “Happy Birthday” to White back and forth. Then, Reynolds goes rogue and starts a joking rant about how he loves White more than Bullock does.

“What does Sandy do for you every year?” Reynolds quips. “Like, show up and hand-deliver flowers for you wearing nothing but black socks and a dozen gold bracelets? Just like you requested? Doubt it.” Reynolds’s talking is intercut with Bullock still singing “Happy Birthday” like nothing is going on.

Honestly, the video deserves an Oscar. Watch it for yourself, below, because you deserve a little joy.

The Proposal, if you don’t remember, centers on a woman (Bullock) who fakes a relationship with her assistant (Reynolds) in order to avoid being deported back to Canada. Betty White plays Reynolds’s grandmother in the film. It grossed over $317.4 million at the box office and earned Bullock a Golden Globe nomination for Best Actress in a Motion Picture, Comedy or Musical.

In an interview with Parade a few years back, White joked that the secret to her long life has been vodka and hot dogs. But she did offer some sage advice for people: “Enjoy life,” she said. “Accentuate the positive, not the negative. It sounds so trite, but a lot of people will pick out something to complain about, rather than say, ‘Hey, that was great!’ It’s not hard to find great stuff if you look.”

Having Ryan Reynolds and Sandra Bullock do a sing-off for your birthday certainly counts as “great stuff,” in my opinion.

The New 'Ocean's 8' Trailer Will Make You Really Want to Plan a Heist With Sandra Bullock


I’m just going to lay all my cards out on the table. I never really cared about the Ocean’s Eleven franchise. Something about a bunch of macho dudes robbing a casino just struck me as blah. Now I know what those movies were missing: Rihanna. And Sandra Bullock. And Cate Blanchett. And Anne Hathaway. And Awkwafina. And Mindy Kaling. And Sarah Paulson. And Helena Bonham Carter, of course.

You see, these actors are at the center of the all-female Ocean’s Eleven reboot—titled Ocean’s 8—which is why my opinion on the franchise has changed. Not only do I want to see Ocean’s 8 multiple times, I’m also now dying to plan a heist with them all.

Especially after I watched the latest full trailer for Ocean’s 8, which hit the Internet on Thursday (April 12). I’m so invested in Bullock’s character Debbie Ocean, Danny’s sister who decides to heist the annual Met Gala with the help of six other women. Meanwhile, Hathaway plays Daphne Kluger, the wealthy celebrity whose $150 million necklace Debbie wants to steal. Watch the new trailer, below:

I’m not sure what about this trailer excites me the most: Hathaway’s deliciously over-the-top portrayal of Daphne, Blanchett’s shaggy blond hairstyle, Rihanna being a computer wiz, or Paulson’s glowing presence. (The American Horror Story alum has my favorite line in one of the teasers. “This is the Met Gay-la, after all” she says to a Very Important Woman working for the event. “Gah-la. The Met Gah-la,” she corrects Paulson. That’s literally me anytime I try to be fancy.)

Ocean’s 8 hits theaters June 8, 2018.

'Ocean's Eight' Trailer: Here's Your First Look at Sandra Bullock, Cate Blanchett, and Rihanna in Action


Get hyped, my friends, because the first teaser for Ocean’s Eight has been revealed, and Cate Blanchett, Rihanna, and Sarah Paulson are here to save us all.

We don’t want to keep you waiting, so go ahead and check out the 15-second teaser trailer, below, and then we can discuss. (The full trailer comes out tomorrow, December 19.)

The teaser doesn’t reveal too much, but so far the film looks hilarious (and glamorous, of course). Overall, it seems to have all the elements that made the traditional Ocean’s franchise such a smash—but with a necessary feminist twist. It’s just one of several female-focused reboots that have happened over the past few years: 2016’s Ghostbusters was a critical hit and a remake of Lord of the Flies is also in the works, for example. Because it’s 2017, though, we’re sure people will find something negative to say about Ocean’s Eight—and star Sandra Bullock is prepared for it.

“It’s like, let’s just take a breath and let’s just see if we come up with something fun. There should be a moratorium. There should be a rule: You’re not allowed to say anything nasty until after it comes out. Obviously, that’s never going to happen,” Bullock told Entertainment Weekly.

The actress also said she and the other cast members (Cate Blanchett, Anne Hathaway, Mindy Kaling, Sarah Paulson, Awkwafina, Rihanna, and Helena Bonham Carter) were quick to bond on set.

“I realized as women we have been isolated for a while. I don’t even want to touch on that other subject, but women are now taking care of each other,” she said. “We all were like, OK, let’s just take care of each other for these six months and relish this opportunity we’re being given. But we don’t want it to be just for women. This is not a man-hating. We love the men. There’s men in this movie. We love them. But this one heist needs women.”

Ocean’s Eight hits theaters everywhere on June 8, 2018.
