She's still his mum: Sandra Bullock dresses son Louis in Blind Side 'adopted' son Michael Oher's jersey as they turn out to watch him play in Super Bowl

His story helped her win an Oscar -- and now her support helped him win the Super Bowl.
Baltimore Ravens lineman Michael Oher celebrated his first win at the football tournament on Sunday night in New Orleans, with his family and Hollywood mum Sandra Bullock in the audience to cheer him on.
In the 2009 hit film The Blind Side, Sandra played Leigh Anne Tuohy, a stay-at-home mum who was famous for adopting the then homeless teen, who with their help, would go on to football fame.

The 26-year-old celebrated his win against the San Francisco 49ers knowing that Sandra, with the Tuoys, was in the stands with a special treat -- her own adopted son Louis, 3, was dressed in an Oher jersey in his honour.

 

The actress has kept an eye on Oher's career since the movie's conception.
'She follows Michael's career every step of the way,' Tuohy said. 'It's funny.'

The real deal: Michael Oher plays for the Baltimore Ravens, who won the 2013 Super Bowl

'I'll get texts (from her) during the game: 'Why did they do this? They Should have done that','
The Blind Side is a true story of how the Tuoys, a well-off Southern family, adopted Oher and nurtured his career.
Oher was one of 12 children of a crack addicted mother who had been bouncing from foster home to foster home until he was taken in by the family.

Bullock and the Tuohys had a lot to celebrate after the game in New Orleans.
Oher's team, Baltimore Ravens, beat San Fransisco 49ers 34 to 31.
Also supporting the purples was Stacey Kiebler, who used to be on the cheerleading squad for the Maryland team.
Other celebrities in the stadium were The Vampires Diaries actress Nina Dobrev, with her brother as well as Smash star Katherine McPhee.
Both ladies backed the San Fransisco 49ers so were no doubt disappointed with the final result.
However, Beyoncé's halftime performance more than made up for it, with special guests Kelly Rowland and Michelle Williams.
