Worst supporting husband? Jesse James with wife Sandra Bullock at the Oscars


Days after Kate Winslet announced her marriage was over, the Curse of the Academy Award winners appears to have claimed another victim.

Sandra Bullock has cancelled the British premiere of The Blind Side, for which she won this year's best actress Oscar, amid claims that her husband had an affair with a model whose body is almost entirely covered in tattoos.

In a gushing speech which recalled Miss Winslet's tribute to Sam Mendes when she took the same award last year, 45-year-old Miss Bullock thanked motorbike enthusiast Jesse James for his support.

His eyes welled with tears as she spoke of her love for him. Yet according to a U.S. publication yesterday, he repaid her trust by having an 11-month relationship with Michelle 'Bombshell' McGee.

The tattooed lady told In Touch magazine that she called 40-year-old James her 'Vanilla Gorilla' and gave salacious details of their time together.

Miss Bullock had been due to attend the first London screening of The Blind Side on Tuesday with her co-star, newcomer Quinton Aaron. But in a terse statement, Warner Brothers yesterday announced that the event and its accompanying parties were off because 'unforeseen circumstances' had arisen which meant Miss Bullock was 'no longer available to travel'.

The actress had a string of unsuccessful relationships before meeting James, a former bodyguard to heavy metal groups, when she took her young godson to the set of his now-axed TV show Monster Garage. She became his third wife almost five years ago.


Affair: Michelle 'Bombshell' McGee claims she had an affair with James

Brunette Miss McGee claims she made email contact with James in April 2009 when she was looking for a modelling job with his company, West Coast Choppers. A week later, they met and had sex on his Los Angeles office couch 'two or three times'.

The model, who is in her 20s, said she thought his marriage was over when the fling started. The magazine printed lewd texts from James to Miss McGee, in which he called her 'babe' and praised her 'beautiful eyes'. In one, from as recently as Sunday, he wrote: 'Was just think'n' bout u this morning.'

She said: 'I'm a little more edgy than Sandra, obviously. I like motorcycles and I think we maybe had a lot more in common than she did with him. I think he was lonely.'

Miss McGee said she met and 'bonded with' James's five-year-old daughter Sunny, by his second wife, porn star turned director Janine Lindermulder.

She claimed that the pair even watched Miss Bullock's appearance at the MTV Awards last May while in bed together. 'In my mind, the reason he wasn't there was because they were separated.'

Although they always met in secret at James's office, Miss McGee said she did not realise he was still married until they ran into mutual friends at a tattoo convention in Long Beach last June. 'It was awkward, he knew he was caught.' It is not clear if or when Miss Bullock was told of her husband's cheating.

But at the SAG Awards in January, she said: 'To my husband Jesse, who works so hard all day.

'And you get dressed up in monkey suits and you sit at tables with people you don't know and I leave you there and then you come back with, like, Morgan Freeman's email.

'I don't know how you do it. I love you so much and you're really hot and I want you so much.'

At the Golden Globes, she said: 'To my husband - there's no surprise that my work got better when I met you, so thank you.'

And finally, at the Oscars, she thanked her late mother Helga for sending her James.

A spokesman for the actress refused to discuss the magazine allegations yesterday.

Jesse James was unavailable for comment.
