    Saying you'd beat your husband beating seems to be acceptable - if a man said this he would (rightly) have got a lot of flack:
    Sandra Bullock would have used bat on Tiger

    Jesse James better look out -- and Tiger Woods should be grateful he's not married to Sandra Bullock. Two months before the Oscar-winner learned that her own husband was philandering, she said she would have unleashed a golf club-swinging, baseball bat-hacking frenzy on serial-cheater Woods if she were married to him.

    "If I were [Tiger's wife] Elin [Nordegren], man, I would have hit a lot more than she did," Bullock said. "I would have kept hitting."

    In fairness Sandra Bullocks comments were probably tongue in cheek - if every mother who said " when I get my hands on him I ll kill him" acted on it there would be few kids in school.

    Real life is different and she seems like a nice woman and picked up her Razzie in person and all that.

    As an actress I am not a fan but at a human level I sympathise and think she has behaved very well.

    She's not Mariska but - ah well.

    CDfm highlighted in on another thread but thought people here might watch it and maybe discuss it.
