“Ryan and I have known each other since we were prepubescent. We go way, way, way back. We had to do the n*ked scene that day […] Ryan and I have these flesh-colored things stuck to our privates, my hair is strategically over the n*pples, and Ryan’s little— not little, at all! It’s just whatever’s there […] When they’d say cut, we couldn’t really move.

He was on his back with his knees up, and I’m on the floor just sort of resting on his knees […] Then I hear Anne Fletcher from the darkness go, ‘Ryan, we can see your ball sack!’ I’m like, ‘Oh God!’ because you wanna look down but I’m like, ‘Don’t look down. Don’t look down.’ Everyone in the darkness spun around to see if they could find a monitor. I was like, ‘Anne, there’s a way to present that information.”

Sandra Bullock revealed on the Today Show that they remained very good friends after the movie and although many rumors were spread about the two of them being together, they have nothing more than friendship among them. Moreover, a news article from Who’s Dated Who linked up Ryan Reynolds and Sandra Bullock which left the fans further dismayed, as it was reported that both The Proposal actors were very close to each other.
