NEW YORK (AP) -- Actress Sandra Bullock has donated $1 million to the American Red Cross to help relief efforts in countries affected by the deadly earthquake and tsunamis in southern Asia and eastern Africa.

Bullock, whose screen credits include "Miss Congeniality," "While You Were Sleeping" and "Speed," contacted the American Red Cross last week, the organization said Monday.

She also donated $1 million after the September 11 terror attacks.

"At this critical time, I am grateful to Sandra Bullock for once again demonstrating her leadership, compassion and belief in our global humanitarian mission," said American Red Cross President and Chief Executive Officer Marsha Evans in a statement. "Sandra continues to enable our lifesaving work and is a model for personal generosity."

Good for her.

Who knew she could still rack in a million and be able to give it away?

Good for Sandra. I also heard that Linkin Part set up a musician relief fund.

On a side note, I can't wait for Miss Congeniality 2.

even though everyone in the metal community HATES Linkin Park (Metal they're not...More like the current flavor of the weak!) ya have to give 'em credit for finally doin' something that I agree with.

I'd like to see other celebrities kick in that much. Anyone hear of any other such donations? How 'bout Bill Gates? Has he contributed?

Just curious...

needs to be dropped into a prison which holds the "worse-of-the-worse" sexual offenders on this planet...But make sure to put camera's in each inmates room so we can have yet another STUPID ass reality show with that ____ (Fill in the blank with the "C" word that rhymes with "Punt") appearring on it, But for a twist we can charge to view the new show and give the funds to the Tsunami relief fund (Trust me, In this sick as f**k world we'll make $1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000.02 profit!!!!)

I'm glad they publicized her donation.

I do think it inspires others to give. It's good to know that there are still a lot of kind, wonderful people left in this world.

I believe one of the Hilton properties was destroyed - but I could be wrong.

As for Paris - who knows. Again, all we can do is speculate

Paris ran out of room in her closet, so she donated two Louis Vutton bags from last season. Such a generous gal.

Like when Cher's father says "your donating a surboard" and Cher says "Duh - Daddy don't you think poor people surf too or something like that - maybe it was soy milk
