Sandra Bullock says reaching 60 is pretty awesome as she admits people seem to be afraid of ageing
Sandra Bullock is helping Hoda Kotb usher in her new era with some sweet words of wisdom.
Kotb, who turned 60 on Friday, Aug. 9, was treated to a birthday celebration on the Monday, Aug. 12 broadcast of Today with Hoda and Jenna, which included a memorable video message from Bullock.

«I had so many brilliant and funny things prepared for you for this message that were just going to slay, but you know girl, I’m just too tired,» said Bullock, who turned 60 on Friday, July 26.
«I’m tired because I had to make my way up that mountain before you got there so I could check out the terrain and see what things look like, and just get the feel so I can fill you in.
And it’s weird because people seem to want us to be afraid of what it might look like when we get there. Turns out its pretty damn great,» continued Bullock. «It’s pretty awesome.»

The Practical Magic star also thanked Kotb «for being so incredible to so many people.»
«What you do for a living and how you have to shape-shift every single day, how you navigate your kindness, even when that’s not what’s coming your way,» she said.
«How you are to those you care about and how you keep them safe, and just who you are as a human being. We’re all pretty lucky to have you, especially your kids.»

Bullock ended the video with a personal message for Kotb.
«Happy birthday, my sweet friend. Thank you for allowing me to be in your circle,» said Bullock. «I feel very grateful.
And I have your bar set up, up here, so we can look at the view. It’s pretty beautiful, but I need you up here. Happy birthday.»
