Sandra Bullock Named World's Most Beautiful Woman By People Magazine; 9 Facts About The 2015 Winner

Sandra Bullock has been dubbed by People magazine as the World's Most Beautiful Woman for 2015. And we have to admit, we're not entirely surprised! In addition to the "Gravity" actress being easy on the eyes, the Oscar winner is also extremely talented, smart and humble.

"Real beauty is quiet. Especially in this town, it's just so hard not to say, 'Oh, I need to look like that,'" the Texas resident told People magazine. "No, be a good person, be a good mom, do a good job with the lunch, let someone cut in front of you who looks like they're in a bigger hurry. The people I find most beautiful are the ones who aren't trying."

The mother of little Louie, who she adopted in April 2010, added that when she heard the news of becoming the World's Most Beautiful Woman she couldn't help but laugh. "No, really. I just said, 'That's ridiculous,'" she admitted to the publication of her initial reaction to the honor.

What's not ridiculous is just how interesting People magazine's 2015 Most Beautiful Woman is. Check out nine fascinating facts about "The Heat" star:

2. Bullock's mother, Helga Mathilde Meyer, was a German opera singer. Perhaps that's why that actress can speak the European language fluently!

3. Bullock told the Associated Press in 1994 the advice her mother once shared with her about marriage. "Make your own ways because what if you're married to someone, and all of a sudden he dies?

4. In Bullock's long, successful career, she's only directed one movie: a 1998 short film called "Making Sandwiches."
