Sandra Bullock denies Oscar hook up rumor

HollywoodNews.com: Sandra Bullock may be single these days, but that doesn’t mean that she’s been involved in a random hook up that was rumored about recently.
Bullock has released a statement denying the rumor that she hooked up with Brett Ratner during the time of the Oscars, something he is also denying, states UsMagazine.com.
“We think that it’s incredibly sad that in these times, this magazine would resort to complete fabrication, solely for financial gain. There is not a shred of accuracy in their story. We have not seen nor spoken to each for over a decade. We both had a great time after the Oscars, just not with each other,” the two commented in a joint statement.
Who do you think she should date?
