The world's most powerful actress:

She has just been named the world's most powerful actress, but it's clear what matters most to Sandra Bullock - her role as a mother.
While the Oscar-winner can demand millions of dollars per film, it seems she enjoys nothing more than spending time with ten-month-old Louis.
Shunning the Hollywood lifestyle, yesterday she was spotted juggling childcare with puppy training as she took her pets to the Train My Dogs store near her Texas home.
It came as she was named the world's most powerful actress in a respected annual list of  film, TV and music stars.
