Remember the 2009 movie “The Blind Side” with Sandra Bullock and Tim McGraw? Great movie about a family adopting a young man who goes on to be an NFL player? Well Michael Ohrt the subject of that movie is now suing Sean and Leigh Anne Tuohy, claiming they used him and made millions off his name, while he got nothing. And now, Sandra Bullock can honestly say that "Speed 2" is NOT the most embarrassing movie she's ever made.
