Bullock and James engage in ‘phone screaming matches’: report

Actress Sandra Bullock has gotten into a series of nasty phone fights with cheating hubby Jesse James — even reportedly blowing up at him weeks ago regarding his infidelity in an incident that left the bad boy biker in tears.

“When they do talk, it’s very little and very nasty,” a friend of the Academy Award-winning actress told Us Weekly. “She won’t forgive him for this.”

RadarOnline reported today that Bullock, 45, who is contemplating a divorce, confronted James about his adulterous ways long before In Touch magazine broke the news two weeks ago that he was having an affair with a former stripper named Michelle McGee.

“Sandra is basically so embarrassed she wants to die,” an inside source told RadarOnline. “They have had several screaming matches over the phone.”

The source added that James “was drinking while they were talking” and that once Bullock said she was leaving him and that it was over he “broke down in tears and tried to emotionally manipulate [her] with his daughter [Sunny].”

James, 40, has been accused of carrying on affairs with four women. On Tuesday, James checked himself into Sierra Tuscon, an Arizona rehab which specializes in drug, alcohol and sex addiction.

“Immediately after that conversation he started driving to Arizona,” the source told RadarOnline of James heading to rehab. “He was going to prove to Sandra that he was like Tiger.”

The source also said James “has tried contacting her since [over the past few days], but she is ignoring him.”

Meanwhile, Bullock came out of hiding Wednesday when she was spotted in Los Angeles.

A source told People magazine that she was visiting Gabriel Brener, a family friend who heads a Beverly Hills investment firm.

“She’s not there on business,” the source told the magazine. “They’ve been friends for decades.”

Also today, Life & Style magazine reported that James visited a San Diego strip club that employed McGee on multiple occasions, paid a lot of money and wound up receiving oral sex from her in a private room.

The magazine also claims James was serviced by another stripper at the club.

An insider at the Club Fantasy told Life & Style that James visited the strip joint four times last summer, paying $400 an hour to take the tattooed temptress into the VIP room alone.

“[The club] comped him admission,” the insider said. “But he always paid to be with her. One time, she was on her knees giving him [oral sex]. It’s not something the club allows, but he is who he is. She bragged about doing it to him.”

His appetite was insatiable, according to the insider.

James reportedly spent additional money for another Club Fantasy stripper during that visit.

“As soon as Michelle was done giving him [oral sex], he grabbed another one of the girls,” said the insider. “He was pretty aggressive with her. He was pulling her bathing suit aside. He wanted her to do what ‘Bombshell’ did, but she wouldn’t do it. It looked like she used her hand instead.”

A spokesman for the strip joint confirmed that James had been a client, but said they don’t allow sexual contact between the patrons and the dancers.
