Sienna Miller

That'd be great, satin_chic, and thank you for those scans, RoseMary!

Sienna Miller likes parties and men with style. The fact that those do not always bring her good look does not matter at the moment. Now is her time to prove that she is a great actress.

Sienna Miller enters the room: She trips, makes a loud joke about her clumsiness, laughs – a likeable class idiot of sorts with years of practice in attracting attention to herself. This works perfectly, since she is gorgeous. A simple, classic beauty reminiscent of Grace Kelly, but without her coldness. She moves with the naturalness of a woman who has been told for many years that she looks goods, which is why the all the combing and make-up is not so important: She usually looks as if she had started but then did not feel like it anymore. Sienna Miller is small – 1,63 metres – and as light as a feather. As a man you just want to protect her.
The list of beaus the 26-year old English woman actually or allegedly had affairs with is endless. Recently it was Welsh actor Rhys Ifans, the guy who stuck his naked butt out of a door in [FONT=&quot]“[/FONT]Notting Hill[FONT=&quot]”[/FONT]. The public[FONT=&quot]’[/FONT]s reaction: This is not a man for a woman who was with Jude Law.
And that is where the glamour and at the same time tragedy of beautiful Sienna begins: She owes her status to Jude Law. Five years ago Law fell in love with the pretty hippie girl who wore her mother[FONT=&quot]’[/FONT]s old skirts, long scarves and Ugg Boots, and walked out on his wife Sadie Frost and his three kids. Law had the great idea of proposing to her and then the stupid one of getting involved with the nanny and getting caught in the act by one of his kids.
In interviews, Sienna Miller often complains about [FONT=&quot]“[/FONT]only being defined by the Jude-thing[FONT=&quot]”[/FONT], but in reality, the Jude-thing is responsible for everyone knowing who she is. She graced the cover of almost every fashion magazine in the world, the designer of Dior, John Galliano, called her [FONT=&quot]“[/FONT]the world[FONT=&quot]’[/FONT]s most inspiring woman[FONT=&quot]”[/FONT]. The girl was such a hit that the question how she earned her money was completely neglected.
Or does anyone remember one of her movies? [FONT=&quot]“[/FONT]Factory Girl[FONT=&quot]”[/FONT] is about to hit the cinemas and she plays Warhol-muse Edie Sedgwick: The charismatic, silver-haired and physically instable beauty was the very first It-Girl, had a good grip on NY[FONT=&quot]’[/FONT]s party scene and relationships with men like Bob Dylan, Mick Jagger and Jim Morrison before she died of an overdose in 1971 at the age of 28. Sienna Miller turns so much into Edie Sedgwick in the movie that one gets a little queasy. Yet there are hardly any parallels between the two, expect their upper-class origins (Sienna[FONT=&quot]’[/FONT]s mother directed the Lee Strasberg Theatre and Film Institute in London; her father was a banker and later an art dealer) and a weakness for excessive partying – and for trophy men.
After Jude Law the latter seems to have become even bigger: Maybe the reaction of a broken heart, just like men do after a lost love. Picking up, romping, trading. Naturally, it[FONT=&quot]’[/FONT]s the first league that attracts her: rich, famous or successful, preferably all that.
With Rhys Ifans, she broke up via cellphone – but of course, the next guy had already taken a bait: the American oil heir and actor Balthazar Getty (33). Ifans had barely moved out when photos of Sienna and Getty on permanent vacation appeared – she was topless and he was cheerfully groping her breasts and behind. Apparently, it was not until then that Getty[FONT=&quot]’[/FONT]s wife Rosetta Millington found out about the affair and filed the divorce. She could possibly get half of his fortune, a lawyer for family law estimates, about 80 million Euros. What to think about this? In Europe people seem to await where this leads, but the American public seems to boil with indignation. The poor wife! Four children, the youngest only ten months old!
Sienna doesn[FONT=&quot]’[/FONT]t seem to give thought to this. Perhaps this is even a welcome development of her personality. In an interview with English magazine [FONT=&quot]“[/FONT]Pop[FONT=&quot]”[/FONT] she explained: [FONT=&quot]“[/FONT]I admire the ability to lose oneself in egomania in ways that one doesn[FONT=&quot]’[/FONT]t give a **** about what people think.[FONT=&quot]”[/FONT]
She does not believe in secrets, is never mysterious and almost incomprehensibly open in interviews. With an enchanting naivety she welcomes journalists in her house where her sleeping dogs and hundreds of unopened shopping bags from expensive shops lie around. She apologizes a lot and is always worried she could be misunderstood or not liked enough. [FONT=&quot]“[/FONT]My mum owns cats, but they don[FONT=&quot]’[/FONT]t like me very much[FONT=&quot]”[/FONT], she recently said. That is why she prefers to keep dogs – and constantly new lovers: [FONT=&quot]“[/FONT]You know, my job is to please everyone. And for that I want lots of love in return.[FONT=&quot]”[/FONT]

Wanting lots of love in return is probably a very typical attribute of most celebrities. I really adore the fact that she can be so honest and still so warm. Thank you for translating the article! Karma!

Why can't journalists for supposedly elite magazines get their facts straight? Jude Law did not leave his wife for Sienna Miller. They were separated and I think Sadie Frost had already filed for divorce before the two even met.

^ The article is right on point... She knows she looks good and loves attention. Maybe that's why many women don't like her.

I'm a bit torn actually. I don't think she's "stunning" as a young Charlotte Rampling or Brooke Shields. In fact I think her looks are horribly overrated. She looks good but I think that's mainly because she has a fantastic figure and clothes look fabulous on her. She knows how to style and present herself which makes 70% of looking good. If you look at her face in HQs she is not better looking than any other female celebrity.
What really throws me off recently is her casual love life though... Oh well.
I used to really,really love her style and her!

 

[honeyisle]

I like her

To me, she's a true fashionista with an original and funky sense of style, and I completely ignore her scurrilous love life which sadly overshadows her acting talent.

She is NOT good looking when she's in the ranks of the top-tier beauties.

Average pretty more like it. I find her looks highly overated. She's sorta like a British Lauren Conrad, in that they both are pretty in a common, strolling-the-streets kind of way.

I really don't think those heels are practical, and they don't look so great against those denim jeans. If she were wearing a skirt, those heels might look a little better, but that tiny exposure of the front of the foot against the zip of the pant leg just looks kind of silly. I feel it ruins a perfect look.

 

[karen sofie]

yeah, those heels are def more suitable for short dresses and skirts as they don't 'cut' off the legs because of the opening at the front I'm not that fond of her denim combination either, hmm..

Danke for the scans satin_chic! Interessanter Artikel, danke!

 

[honeyisle]

She's a lot prettier than Lauren Conrad. I know I'll probably get flack for this but I think she looks like a young Catherine Deneuve.

 

[Shopper400]

i am so tired of people, for the most part interviewers, throwing around Grace Kelly's name. Sienna is not at all like Grace kelly, nobody is.

 

[lostinemotion]

well, i could see the look in her eye they are talking about. and hell yeah, she is prettier than lauren conrad. lauren conrad is so stiff looking. she needs to loosen up and take the stick out of...
i used to like sienna, but she does not dress that cute anymore.

Young Deneuve is very different in looks. She also had poise and elegance (and real talent) -- still has. Nothing in common with Sienna Miller.

Kate Moss also looks goods and loves attention and women love her. That theory doesn't hold.
Sienna doesn't look half as good as she thinks she looks and she wants attention at every cost, that's her problem.

How can someone say she looks like a young Catherine Deneuve??????????? They are nothing alike. And that's certainly an insult for Catherine.
