A year or so after Speed came out, Bullock and Keanu were hanging out, talking about whatever, and somehow the subject of Champagne and truffles came up, which is not really a subject at all, but Bullock said, offhand, that she had never had Champagne and truffles. A nothing comment. “Really?” Keanu said. “Nope, never had ‘em,” Bullock said. The conversation wandered to other topics.

A few days later, Bullock was sitting in the living room of the little house she had bought-her first house-with a girlfriend. They were painting their nails. She heard an engine outside, which turned out to be Keanu’s motorcycle. He rang the doorbell, and Bullock opened the door to find him there with flowers, Champagne, and truffles. He said, “I just thought you might want to try Champagne and truffles, to see what it’s like.” He sat on the couch. Bullock poured some Champagne, and they opened the truffles. Keanu put his hand out, without a word, and Bullock painted his nails black, same as hers.

He didn’t stay long. He had a date, in fact. He called his date, said he would be there soon, and left.

Some people next to her look excited and supportive, while older women behind her look judgmental. gif 4: Miss New Jersey (played by Sandra Bullock), claps and nods, saying, "Whoo! Yeah!" while Miss Texas next to her looks shocked and confused. gif 5: The two hosts of the pageant, an older white lady in a sparkling purple dress and an older white man in a tuxdeo look visibly shocked. The man says, "And we'll be right back with our final five lesbians. Interviews." gif 6: Two people in a broadcast room wearing large headsets with microphones. The man says "Bumper. Commercial. Can we say "lesbians"?" and the woman is adjusting the equipment.
