Bullock looks within for happiness

Sandra Bullock says she is the only person who can make her happy.

Sandra Bullock says she is the only person who can make her happy.

The Oscar-winning actress - who has been left devastated by allegations husband Jesse James cheated on her with at least four other women - admits it's up to her to ensure she has a fulfilling life and nobody else.

She said: "I believe in creating your own happiness. If you're miserable, you need to look at what you can do to fight to make your own life the one you want."

Speaking before the claims about the motorcycle enthusiast's infidelity emerged, Sandra also revealed she is difficult to live with.

She said: "I'm not easy to deal with. I'm high-energy and need organisation and structure, so I'm controlling. I want everything orderly, and I need lists. I'm aware that I can be annoying.

"Unconventional. Nutty. I do everything 100%, even my stupidest missteps. But I try not to blame them on anyone else unless I fully know it was their fault - and then I have no problem pointing the finger."
