Famous People Speaking German: Sandra Bullock
After the Grammy Awards last night one of my German students Facebooked me and proclaimed, "Sandra Bullock speaks German!" Apparently Sandra Bullock's mother was a German opera singer and Bullock grew up in Nürnberg and studied ballet and vocal arts and even sang in her mother's opera productions.
What makes perfect sense and is astounding at the same time is Bullock's German accent--perfectly representative of the area she grew up in.
Here's a video of Bullock accepting a Bambi award, an international prize awarded by the Bambi Committee for excellence in categories ranging from pop music to sports, classical music to charity.
