The secret is out! Evan Rachel Wood had a HUGE crush on Sandra Bullock while filming a movie with her!
In case you don’t remember, Practical Magic is the 1998 film where Sandra and Nicole Kidman play sisters born into a family of witches who have to fight off an evil spirit before it kills them. Evan, at only 11 years old, played the Lost City actress’ eldest daughter in the cult classic.
Wood notably came out publicly in 2011 as bisexual while sitting in a cafe interview with Esquire. When the David Bowie song Oh! You Pretty Things came on the radio, the actress casually (and iconically!) announced her attraction to “androgyny”:
“I grew up in love with David Bowie. So I was always into very androgynous things. Guys, girls … I’m into androgyny in general.”
Ever since then, the Barefoot star has been an outspoken activist for LGBT rights and the bisexual community. This has lead her to realize some things about herself today she didn’t quite understand at a younger age — and that’s exactly what happened in a recent live interview!

In a chat with Andy Cohen during Watch What Happens Live on Monday, Wood stepped back in time and admitted to seeing Bullock as more than just a movie mom! Although the 35-year-old said she didn’t keep in touch with The Proposal star throughout the years, she was totally crushing:
“I had such a crush on Sandra Bullock when I was doing that movie. But I didn’t realize it until later on in life. It’s like, ‘Oh you were in love with her’.”
Oh!
Continuing the conversation, Andy asked for clarification on her true feelings:
“Would you say you were ‘in love’ with her?”
To which the activist surprisingly admitted yes, she was “in love” with her co-star — as much as she could be at her age:
“As much as an 11-year-old girl could be on her … movie mom.”
When the host reiterated the Thirteen actress did, in fact, have a “serious crush” on Bullock she doubled down:
“Yeah, she’s fantastic, she’s gorgeous.”
Is the crush still around? We can’t blame her — Bullock is as gorg as ever!
It’s wonderful Evan is able to look back on the movie fondly and openly speak about her lil’ crush back then. We can’t help but wonder what Sandra thinks!
Reactions, Perezcious readers?
