8. Sandra Bullock – German
Movie star Sandra Bullock may seem about as all-American as apple pie, but she actually lived in Nuremberg, Germany until she was 12! She grew up the daughter of a German opera singer, and while she may not have an operatic set of pipes, she definitely picked up a love of entertaining and a skill for the German tongue.
Bullock’s family travelled a lot while she was growing up, and finally settled in the United States just before she entered her teens. However, she’s maintained her German language skills over the years, stunning everyone with her impeccable German during both a 2012 Oscars speech and an acceptance speech for a Bambi award.
