Comedies don't get respect at Oscars: Sandra Bullock

Los Angeles: Oscar-winning actress Sandra Bullock feels that the Academy Awards do not show respect to comedy movies.

The 49-year-old has been part of some comedy-drama's like 'Miss Congeniality', '28 Days', 'Divine Secrets of the Ya-Ya Sisterhood', 'The Thing Called Love' and 'Love Potion No.9'.

She won an Oscar in 2010 for her role in 'The Blind Side'.

"There's no respect for comedies when it comes to the Oscars - absolutely none. But you don't do comedy for awards or credibility. You do it for the joy," dailystar.co.uk quoted Bullock as saying.

The actress was at the red carpet of her forthcoming movie 'The Heat'.
