Legend has it that winning an Oscar does wonders for an actress's career, yet horrors for her love life. In 1999, Gwyneth Paltrow won an award for her role in Shakespeare in Love. Just two months later, she and Ben Affleck called it quits. Julia Roberts won in 2001 for Erin Brockovich, and three months later broke it off with Benjamin Bratt, her boyfriend of four years.

The latest edition is Sandra Bullock, who recently won “Best Actress” for her role in The Blind Side. Just two weeks after winning, she moved out of her Southern California home, leaving husband of five years Jesse James just days before rumors surfaced that he had cheated on her.

Sandra's next move is up in the air, whether she will let herself cool down and work things out with her husband, or become another statistic as a divorcée. It seems Jesse has hopes to reconcile, reportedly checking into a treatment facility to deal with personal issues, “a crucial step to help himself, help his family and help save his marriage,” said his rep in a statement.

What would you do if you were in Sandra's shoes? Whip out the divorce papers or work it out?
