I just read in our paper today that Sandra Bullock was called for jury duty in Austin (where she lives, at least part time) last Monday. It said she showed up just like the rest of us schleps and sat in the room for jury questioning. However the prosecutor used a preemptive strike to exclude her from the jury panel. Guess he didn't want her "celebrity status" to overshadow the trial!!! The article said she didn't even ask to be excused. Now THAT is impressive - because I usually ask to be excused at least once when they call me - how do they know that the week they want me to serve is the BUSIEST week of my life!!!
