The Academy Award(R) winning actress joins past winners including Halle Berry, Charlize Theron and Jennifer Aniston as extraordinary leading ladies whose world-class talent is matched only by their iconic beauty. #GuysChoice premieres Wednesday, June 11 at 9 PM ET/PT on Spike TV.
"We've been courting Sandra so long for this award that she was eventually going to say yes or take out a restraining order," said Casey Patterson, Executive Producer and Executive Vice President, Event Production & Talent Development, Viacom Entertainment Group. "We couldn't be more thrilled to be honoring Sandra Bullock with our Decade of Hotness award. She is as ridiculously talented as she is beautiful and our audience adores her."
