Last year's best actress Oscar winner earned $15 million, enough to put her ninth according to Forbes' tallies. Sandra Bullock's private life dominated the news after her marriage to Jesse James ended after the 2010 Academy Awards took place. Bullock's Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close, based on the Jonathan Safran Foer novel about New York post-9/11, with Tom Hanks is slated for release next year.

Sandra Bullock‘s 1-year-old son, Louis Bardo, is starting his art collection early.
At Thursday’s amFAR Inspiration Gala at the Chateau Marmont in West Hollywood, her CAA agents Kevin Huvane and Bryan Lourd placed the winning bid on a $14,000 Andy Warhol print called “Peaches” for Bullock’s baby.

“I want to thank Kevin Huvane and Bryan Lourd for not being cheap f-cks and gifting my son with his first Warhol,” joked Bullock, according to UsMagazine.com.
Proceeds from the benefit go to AIDS research. Elizabeth Taylor — who died in March at age 79 — helped create the foundation in 1985.

“Earlier this year, the world lost a radiant woman of courage and compassion. She lives on in every person she touched,” Bullock said of Taylor.

“She never thought twice to put her arm around someone who was suffering, and that is the gift we have a human beings, the ability to reach out and touch another human being. Tonight we can honor this extraordinary woman and finish what she started,” added Bullock.
