Michelle McGee was paid $30,000 to tell about her alleged affair with married U.S. television personality Jesse James, sources close to the tattoo model said.
James is the chief executive officer of West Coast Choppers and the 5-year husband of freshly minted best actress Oscar winner Sandra Bullock.
Although James has not confirmed he had a sexual relationship with McGee, he issued a public apology Thursday to Bullock and his children for causing them pain and embarrassment.
Sources close to McGee told Technorati the mother of two young children was paid close to $30,000 for details about the alleged 11-month-long relationship she had with James. The story ran as an exclusive this week in In Touch magazine.
The Insiders told the web site McGee knew James was married and had been hoping her association with him would make her a "mainstream celebrity."
Bullock has not commented to the media about the allegations, but People.com said she moved out of the home she shares with James Monday.

Poor Sandra Bullock.
When the news first hit that Jesse James was caught with his pants down with model Michelle "Bombshell" McGee, I could barely contain my anger and emotion.
I mean seriously - is there anyone who doesn't love Sandra Bullock?
Like many other bloggers, I've found this whole sordid mess difficult to write about, especially because not only do I hold Sandra in high regard, but I also liked Jesse as well, and thought he was a stand-up guy who knew better.
I was wrong.
So wrong.
Can Sandra and Jesse work this out? I don't know. I know if it was me, I would leave him for good. I can say that because it did happen to me; I walked out on a 10 year marriage when I found out my husband was cheating on me with a former girlfriend. We had kids together. I took them, walked out the door and never looked back.
Was it difficult? Sure. Was it heart breaking? Absolutely. Was I humiliated? Of course.
I know it what it was like for me, but I can't imagine what it would be like having to go through this with millions of people watching.
My heart breaks for the entire Bullock-James clan.

It looks like they are made for each other.
