Sandra Bullock and Channing Tatum Have Surprising Connections to Ricky Martin
Though they are rich and famous, just like regular people, celebrities have neighbors too. It was Kourtney Kardashian and Travis Barker’s neighborly status that initially brought the love birds together.
Oprah Winfrey, a woman of many homes and even more successes, has one property in Santa Barbara that is reportedly right next to the famous actor Rob Lowe’s home. Once, while living in the same Tribeca complex, Meryl Streep actually used Gwyneth Paltrow’s kitchen to cook Thanksgiving dinner. Best Life has shared some stories behind the neighborly VIPs, and Sandra Bullock is another well-known celebrity with an incredibly popular neighbor.

Similar to other successful celebrities, naturally, Bullock has many properties, but the home that shares close corners with Martin isn’t Bullock’s only house surrounded by A-listers.
Bullock’s Malibu home, which is valued at just under $9 million, puts her in close proximity to fellow stars such as Halle Berry. Though he recently sold his Malibu-beach property, Bullock also used to be able to consider Matthew Perry as a neighborly face. Closer Weekly outlined some of the exciting details behind Bullock’s real estate adventures.
Oddly enough, it seems like part of the reason Bullock has acquired so many homes is due to the star’s interest in investing. Not too long ago the New York Post shared that she acquired yet another property but with the intention of using it as a “rental property”.

Bullock and Tatum have been in the media lately due to their exciting movie premiere this past year. The Lost City was released in March and blew viewers and critics away. Sources like Variety even reported that the film that featured Bullock and Tatum beat out popular titles like The Batman at the box office.
The premise of The Lost City revolves around a novelist, played by Bullock, and her book covers’ model, of course, played by Tatum. The pair finds themselves unexpectedly kidnapped while on a book tour, and they have to work together and get adventurous in order to survive.
Though it has only been out for a few weeks, Rotten Tomatoes has already listed the title as a four-star film. Many people are crediting Bullock and Tatum’s organic and enjoyable-to-watch chemistry as a huge part of the film’s success.
Bullock has been opening up about her hopes for the film, and it goes beyond entertainment and acting. In the film industry, women often have a tougher time than men getting in on original projects at a franchise level. However, that was not the case with The Lost City.
Yahoo recapped Bullock’s former frustrations and visions for the future, and the award-winning actor is hoping that The Lost City can help expand “blockbusters” and opportunities for women everywhere.
