same old story, same old song & dance
Jude Law & Sienna Miller are a stormy old story. They began together back at the turn of the century - when Jude was still with the mother of a few of his biological children (there have been more since though it's hard to keep track exactly). That spark a kind of an outrage but Sienna insisted that what she did she did for love, and there's nothing wrong with that. So they were cut some slack. That is until handsome Jude two timed Sienna with his kids' nanny. Miller went around moaning and weeping to the media about how her adulterous love had been betrayed. She also soaked up more than her share of sympathy at Jude's expense. Since Jude was the heavy in the piece supporting Sienna was a way of blaming him: pro vs con. When will we learn - both sides might be bad!So while Jude disappeared into obscurity, Sienna went on to cash in by playing prestige roles - the kind that require British accents. She did a bunch of costume period pieces and while none of them were ever Box Office No 1's, they got her the rep of a good actress and the established career that came with it.
Sienna keeps busy on the rebound
I guess that getting away with it must've gone right to Sienna's little blond head, because the more successful she got the less sympathetic her antics became. She bounced back from Jude and into the arms of a series of married men. I won't say that she's gone through other people's relationships like a cannon ball through a China shop; but she has probably ruined almost as many marriages as Facebook. In fact wrecking marriages seemed to be almost some kind of game to her. No sooner was one relationship kaput then she'd drop the dude and look for fresh fields to blight. The last marriage she torpedoed was Balazathar Getty's. Getty had the double advantage of being a regularly employee actor, but an heir to the Getty Oil Fortune (those Gettys). So Sienna had to have him. She made no secret of it either as the pair were photographed in any number of friendly positions.corpus delicti & modus operandus
By now the public was getting tired of her. She was regularly referred to as Sienna the slut & Sienna the Homewrecker (If Chelsea Handler thinks that Angelina Jolie is a homewrecking whore then she'd better never be in the same room with Sienna Miller). Her flat in London got slut spray painted on it. Worse still her colleagues were even more sick of her than the public. She got kicked off of Sherwood for allegedly making a play for Russ Crowe. It would be good for her career, get her in the headlines, plus it's just her usual modus operandi. Russ showed he was more than a pretty face and told her to fuck the hell off. Then he had her fired. She got pissy and made the kind of trouble that wears out your welcome in Hollywood.When Sienna got pissy she started making up stories concerning her firing. When an A List actress bails on a major production naturally people are gonna ask questions. So Sienna had some answers for them. For one thing she said that she wasn't fired, she quit, she said. If you don't believe that an ambitious girl like Sienna would walk off an A List movie she had an explanation for that too. According to Sienna the movie was unbelievable because Russ Crowe was so fat no one would ever believe that a beautiful girl like Sienna could be in love with him. Then the Sherwood stills came out showing Russ leaner than he was in Gladiator. So people knew Sienna was making up stupid lies to cover herself and make herself look good!
Sienna gets insubordinate
In Hollywood that sin might've been forgivable. How ever Sienna had to follow that by going a bridge too far. She floated a rumor that the project was in trouble because Russ Crowe was trying to get his best friendly Ridley Scott replaced as director. 2 things you need to know about this: 1 actors will form working relationships with directors, like Johnny Depp and Tim Burton. This director will always put them in their work, so it assures an actors career when Super Director will only work with him in a project. Since you owe your career to the guy crossing him would be career suicide.foxy bitches
The second thing is that directors are one rung up the food chain from actors on the Hollywood food chain. When an actor and director cross, the director wins and the actor doesn't work anymore. Remember when Megan Fox was the hottest young actress in Hollywood. Then she called Transformers 2 stupid (or maybe she was referring to Wonder Woman, and called T2 "lame"). Anyway Michael Bay took exception, He then went on to make a public statement reminding Megan that he'd made her what she is, and questioning her appreciation for that. Megan got nervous and at an awards presentation shortly afterward made a point of telling the world how grateful she was for her Hollywood career, regardless of what else she'd been saying before. It was too late, the damage was done; and now Transformers 3 is rolling out with out Megan.
I bring up Megan as an example of the price paid for defying the pecking order in show business. While Megan merely ran off at the mouth, Sienna's stunt was truly shitty. It was something that neither Crowe or Scott was likely to forget. So her next film was GI Joe. Though Miller said that she was happy to do a film people actually enjoyed for a change - there was no talk about her featuring in any sequels. So her next stop was Broadway. Though Broadway used to be the bog deal in American Drama, back in the days of theater; Andrew Lloyd Weber has killed that. Now it's some where desperate actors land when they're looking for something to break their fall. Worse for her, once her show was clued up there was no word on any furture bookings.success equals sequels
Though the future was bleak for Sienna thing were looking oup for her former lover Jude Law. He'd over come a few major scandals - like knocking up an American model and knocking out a female tab reporter in Brit - largely through the anti Sienna backlash. Since she was such a rabid slut, Jude couldn't have been completely at fault. That got him a measure of redemption which allowed him to regain a portion of his career. he got some screen work again, and was fortunately cast as Dr Watson alongside Robert Downey as Sherlock Holmes. That was fortunate because Robb Downey was now Ironman, Ironman was a hot, and the studios would let Doweny do other stuff as long as he kept doing Iroman. So the Sherlock Holmes project was good for one or two sequels. That meant Law was back on the high way and headed to the fast lane again.
So with things looking up for Law, there were now certain career opportunities for Sienna. Opportunities of the kind that the girl friends of working Hollywood actors might have access to. So naturally she made a play at her old boyfriend. Naturally enough Sienna went back after Law, and astonishingly he took her back. While the world asked "WTF is Law thinking?", Sienna happily anticipated her return to motion picture work, once her grand strategy of sleeping her way into Hollywood paid off. After all, she wouldn't be the first chick who made in that towen on her back (though she'd have been one of the few to make it back. Once you fuck up that bad you don't get in no matter how sexy a fuck you are, even if you're Sean Young!).Maybe the world should've asked "How long will it last this time?" If that had been the question then we'd have our answer already. Seems that, and in spite of announcements about impending nuptials and non legally binding Buddhist commitment ceremonies; the couple have once again called it quits. A statement from Jude and Sienna's respective reps was issued earlier confirming that the couple were no longer a couple. In fact that's what Law's rep told People mag earlier - so its' official. Jude's rep said “I can confirm that Jude Law and Sienna Miller are no longer in a relationship. It is mutual and amicable and they are still friends,” a friend told the mag, adding, “It was an entirely an end-of-the relationship decision. It had run its course.”
So where does that leave us? It was a mutual split, like last time. It was also amicable, like last time. There was no talk about Jude's cheating, but there will be when Sienna resorts to her usual behavior, like last time. Jude will continue to hover around Hollywood as a B Lister supporting actor with potential, like before. Sienna will probably continue to make herself unwelcome where ever she goes, like she always does. If this whole sad sorry mess proves anything it's that some people don't learn from their mistakes. So don't be too surprised if they eventually get back together again, for another stab at things before another break up. So we'll be hearing more aboutt hem again, Which is a pity. Just because some people don't learn from their mistakes is no reason why the rest of us should go on hearing about it!
