Sandra Bullock crashes the Oscars
It didn't take last night's Screen Actors Guild win in the ensemble category to prove that "Crash" could be a major player in the Oscar race; nominations from all the major guilds already secured that status for the inflamatory Paul Haggis drama.
And even before receiving any nominations, the film has now made inroads into the Academy Awards show. This morning, producer Gil Cates announced that Sandra Bullock will be presenter on the 78th Oscars.
Bullock has already appeared on several Oscar shows, from the 68th (where she eschewed the red carpet and was accompanied by a bodyguard backstage) to the 74th (where she co-presented with "Two Weeks Notice" co-star and rumored boyfriend Hugh Grant) to the 76th (where she danced across the stage with John Travolta).
The actress has been nominated for and won a variety of Golden Globes, People's Choice Awards, MTV Movie Awards and Teen Choice Awards, but she's never been nominated for an Oscar.
Once the Oscar nominations are announced tomorrow morning (with Bullock a decided longshot for a supporting actress nomination), look for more members of the "Crash" ensemble to show up on the Oscar telecast.
