Sienna Miller Has No Love for Pittsburgh, City Retaliates

10/6/06, 3:02 pm EST

In the current issue of Rolling Stone, “Hot Actress” Sienna Miller sits down with our very own contributing editor Jenny Eliscu and talks smack about Pittsburgh, the city in which she is currently filming indie flick The Mysteries of Pittsburgh. Miller refers to the town as “Shitsburgh” and goes on to say to Jenny: “Can you believe this is my life? Will you pity me when you’re back in your funky New York apartment and I’m still in Pittsburgh? I need to get more glamorous films.” Perhaps part of Ms. Millers point is that they have nothing better to do in Pittsburgh than worry about such comments, but regardless, she’s piqued the ire of the locals.

A local Pittsburgh paper did what can only be described as an in-depth piece on Miller’s hatred, featuring a slew of comments from Jenny, who, for her part, has no problems with the town. Apparently Miller has been on a break in London for several weeks, but returns to the ‘Burgh today and will be filming until October 17th. We’re picturing eggings and other forms of intense public shaming. What should the citizens of Pittsburgh do with Sienna Miller?

I don’t know, but this woman sounds like HIGH MAINTAINANCE.

Old McDonald | 10/6/2006, 3:40 pm EST

Shitsburgh eh? Isn’t that an endearing term. I mean the place is a rats nest.

NCburgher | 10/6/2006, 3:45 pm EST

I think my former city residents should offer her a hand, you know to pull the stick from out of her ass. Pittsburgh is a great town, except for the winter weather and job market, but the people are blue collar and hard working, something Miller has no idea about. Maybe instead of hidding in her hotel room she should get out and experience the city.

apurplesquirrel | 10/6/2006, 3:46 pm EST

I’m originally from Pittsburgh so I, of course, resent her comments. I’d just have some of the locals take her anorexic looking body into the nearest Primanti Bros. for a sandwich. Cheers Sienna!

deuce10 | 10/6/2006, 3:47 pm EST

As a Pittsburgher I can assure you we have much better things to do with our time than to worry about Bitch Miller’s comments like checking out the five Superbowl trophies displayed at beautiful Heinz Field, walking around PNC Park, voted one of the nicest baseball fields in the country, taking in the night life of the South Side and Station Square, or finding great food and bargains at the Strip District on Saturday mornings. That said, we Pittsburghers are very proud of our city, therefore we will take the time out of our busy lives to defend it against a prissy, little-known star who is only famous for one thing, not being able to please her man enough that he had to turn to the nanny.

Yunzguy | 10/6/2006, 3:52 pm EST

She’s clearly never heard of the Takeover UK.

ford | 10/6/2006, 3:52 pm EST

stupid, pampered, idiot, little girl… she’s uglier than pittsburgh.. stupid , self centered bitch..,

DonkeyTron | 10/6/2006, 3:53 pm EST

Somebody give this stuck-up, Hollywood trash a sixer of Iron City and maybe she’ll shut the fuck up.

mmart | 10/6/2006, 3:54 pm EST

Kudos deuce!!

Adam | 10/6/2006, 3:57 pm EST

No offense to Pittsburgh, but in response to Sienna’s comment about “more glamorous films,” I think what she should be looking for instead is more talent. Dressing well is not the same as being a great actress. “The Mysteries of Pittsburgh” doesn’t sound like a very intriguing movie by the title, but a movie set in the ‘burgh is a great idea.

SU | 10/6/2006, 3:59 pm EST

Double kudos Deuce!! Screw Bitch Miller!!

412themax | 10/6/2006, 4:05 pm EST

Perhaps in her anorexic frenzy, she forgot what movie she was last in. Andy Warhol was a native Pittsburgher. The Andy Warhol Museum, the largest single artist museum in America, is located in Pittsburgh. She should get off of her shi- shi little bum and discover that Pittsburgh is an arts town.

Terri McNeill | 10/6/2006, 4:08 pm EST

I mean I used to really like this woman/actress! F**k her now!!! I live in Pittsburgh, and I say DON’T PAY HER ONE FIGGIN CENT FOR WORKING IN OUR TOWN!!

SHE BETTER MAKE AMENDS IF SHE KNOWS WHAT’S GOOD FOR HER.

What a dissapointment Sienna!

Melinda | 10/6/2006, 4:09 pm EST

Who in the hell does she think she is?! How dare she insult pittsburgh! I would love for her to say that to an actual person that lives here in pittsburgh and I guarantee you that she wouldn’t say it again espically with a fat lip! Just go home Sienna to your cheating boyfriend, who you went back to (how stupid can you be). No one in pittsburgh wants your nasty ass here!

Musky | 10/6/2006, 4:12 pm EST

I think Sienna Millers nick should be ciunta Miller and old I wonder where old mcdonald lives… Ahole

Ally | 10/6/2006, 4:13 pm EST

How can you blame Pittsburghers for being offended? Sienna Miller should be out experiencing the town. Instead she is sitting in her hotel room thinking about who her boyfriend is screwing now.

Ray | 10/6/2006, 4:19 pm EST

I think Sienna needs to spend time learning how to act. Instead fo slamming the city that is providing her with her current employment.
Hope you weren’t expecting to many royalties Sienna. Because I don’t think too many Pittsburghers will be going to the box office to see you!!!

The Marquis | 10/6/2006, 4:20 pm EST

Come on now, let’s not all take her comments so personally. I know many people who live in Pittsburgh who hate many things about the town. Now don’t get me wrong. Pittsburgh has tons of wonderful places and alot of great people. All-in-all its a great town. However, just like most cities, it has it’s crappy side too. Maybe Sienna Miller has just been experiencing more of the crap then the good and vented a little. So What? Maybe the “nice” people of Pittsburgh could actually show her why she is mistaken instead of proving her right with their attitudes.

Ducktrapper | 10/6/2006, 4:22 pm EST

I never pay much attention to anyone who’s named after a (Toyota) minivan…or any van for that matter. Perhaps Van Morrison…but definitely not if he changed his name to Econoline or Town & Country Morrison.

Tyler Durden | 10/6/2006, 4:31 pm EST

but she looks great in layer cake.

tanawana | 10/6/2006, 4:33 pm EST

Who is she actually?

LadyElwing | 10/6/2006, 4:34 pm EST

To insult the city one is performing in a movie about shows an incredible lack of basic intelligence. I probably would have gone to see this film because I grew up in the Pittsburgh area. Now I have no intention of seeing a movie which will support such a rude person. I suggest they replace her!!!

JayBo | 10/6/2006, 4:46 pm EST

“Can you believe this is my life? Will you pity me when you’re back in your funky New York apartment and I’m still in Pittsburgh?”

…I believe that *was* your career…. Oh, well. At least she can get a job being a has-been…that’s always fun.

Nicole | 10/6/2006, 4:50 pm EST

I agree with her. I spent a summer in Shitsburgh and it does suck.

Megs | 10/6/2006, 4:53 pm EST

Personally I was looking forward to this movie since I adored the book. Also I am bias due to the fact that I am a Pittsburgher. Here in PIttsburgh we might not be the coolest or most glamorous town, but atleast we have some tact. It is just a lack of class and professionalism on her part. Too bad she ruined what was supposed to be a great movie. :-(

Space Pen | 10/6/2006, 4:55 pm EST

not offended, but bye bye sienna miller career 1.0…

orson | 10/6/2006, 4:56 pm EST

she’s dead on. pittsburgh sucks. not only sucks, fucking sucks. they win the super bowl and they think it cleans the shit stains off of them. dirty steelworking bastards

Oddjob | 10/6/2006, 4:57 pm EST

“Can you believe this is my life? Will you pity me when you’re back in your funky New York apartment and I’m still in Pittsburgh?”

I love it when a hot chick explicitly states that what’s good enough for millions of hard-working people is not good enough for her.

PittsLuvr | 10/6/2006, 4:58 pm EST

It’s a shame that such a “trendsetter” doesn’t realize when she’s being a total idiot. Pittsburgh is full of incredible history, artistic people and places, an eclectic music scene and awesome architecture. It’s a shame that someone so spoiled can’t step out of her plush hotel and her expensive cars and clothing and see what the world has to offer. I’m not mad at her -I feel sorry for her. Thank God I keep my mind open when I travel – otherwise there would be so many experiences to miss. Can you believe such wise-words can come from a true-blooded Shitsburgher? Idiot.

Jamie | 10/6/2006, 5:03 pm EST

Sienna can slam Pittsburgh to her little hearts content, because in a couple of years it will still be a great city and she will be nothing more than another talentless hasbeen who was known more for her “romances” and burberry dress than she ever was for acting ability.

Kasey | 10/6/2006, 5:03 pm EST

I don’t know what this crazy bitch was thinking..but she better pray to God that she dosen’t meet a true blue pittsburgher on the street….she might not making home to her nanny screwing man in the same condition!

Umm | 10/6/2006, 5:03 pm EST

Who cares if she doesn’t like Pittsburgh? Seriously now.

uata | 10/6/2006, 5:09 pm EST

The idea of the movie sounds great…we love our “Burgh”. The fact that they would use this poor excuse for an actress to be in the movie ,is an insult.
Get out the airbrushes and eliiminate her from the movie. She needs to get out of our city…go back to New York…they deserve her.I don’t want her associated with our city…our trash is better…than her mouth…get out the soap.

Breeze | 10/6/2006, 5:09 pm EST

I’m pretty sure no one had a gun to Miller’s head, making sure she came to Pittsburgh. If she’s that down on it, why doesn’t she just leave?

John Bull | 10/6/2006, 5:10 pm EST

Funny thing is…if she’d said it about Detroit she’d be dead on.

LindaJG | 10/6/2006, 5:11 pm EST

Miss Miller is a celebrity and celebrities should keep their negative comments to themselves. Shame on you Sienna!
Let’s go Steelers!!! :)

Not from Pittsburgh! | 10/6/2006, 5:17 pm EST

Who is she? Can anyone tell me what movie she has been in? I have never seen any movie she has been in!

E-section | 10/6/2006, 5:19 pm EST

Maybe people down Pittsburgh out of guilt for letting an industrial giant be sold off to the Japanese by New York-based tycoons. Anyway, just because a place is on hard times does not mean it’s ugly or substandard; Detroit is still a rather pleasant town. Come through the Fort Pitt tunnel into Pittsburgh at night and behold the grandest entrance a city could make. Yes, we are defensive because we Pittsburghers love our town and there’s only so much derision people can take before they lash out.

adam | 10/6/2006, 5:20 pm EST

have sex with her thats what i want to do

McGuire | 10/6/2006, 5:22 pm EST

screw that bitch. may she keep her cheating boyfriend and snide comments to herself. god save queen Sienna!

Five Rings | 10/6/2006, 5:27 pm EST

What’s more upsetting is Elizabeth Goodman’s patronizing tone up above, as if Pittsburghers are silly for being miffed. Oh my, when will the New Yorkers take time from their busy schedules to give us all cool lessons? Soon I hope. Let’s meet in Homewood, Lizzy.

beck | 10/6/2006, 5:28 pm EST

I heard Jude Law’s ex-nanny is working in Pittsburgh, that could be her reason for comments. This B movie, semi-famous actress will soon be waiting on tables in Pittsburgh.

theworldsforgottenboy | 10/6/2006, 5:29 pm EST

Oh these ridiculous girls…
Sienna – Paris – Lohan – Jessica and Ashley….just to name a few
Hey Hollywood Serial Killers… where are you when we need you the

THADIVASHELS | 10/6/2006, 5:31 pm EST

SHE IS FROM ENGLAND RIGHT? WHY DO THEY ALL COME HERE TO MAKE MONEY THAN BASH US BITCH WATCH YO MAN !!! AND GET SOME REAL PARTS !!!!

JDOLO | 10/6/2006, 5:34 pm EST

It is unfortunate to see that Sienna Miller has no class. A lot of us don’t like where we work, but we’d get fired if we said anything! Pittsburgh is a sparkling clean and diverse town. She should go home to dirty NYC where sewage smells great you at every step.

Trippin' Billy | 10/6/2006, 5:37 pm EST

Why does anyone even care?

Everyone knows Pittsburgh is boring so just get over it.

p.s. why is everyone writing in all caps?

Ria | 10/6/2006, 5:43 pm EST

Well I dont buy her appologies she gave that her comment was misconstrued. She is scared now that her words will make her career go down hill, which i doubt now that many pittsburgher’s or even anyone in SW PA will have much use for any of her future words.Sad!

Shittsburgher | 10/6/2006, 5:45 pm EST

Who cares what she said. Freedom of speech! Pittsburgh is extremely unexciting and people with that awful Pittsburgh accent sound like uneducated rednecks. It makes me want to vomit when I have to hear it, and trust me I hear it, I live Here! Sienna please take me with you when you leave Shittsburgh!

Manolo Luva | 10/6/2006, 5:47 pm EST

If you actually read the rest of the article…you will also see that Sienna is just learning how to use the internet and to her it “is still full of magic and wonder.” At least until she sees this page it will be…that is if she can find it on her own. What a dumb ass.

Jacque-o-lantern | 10/6/2006, 5:48 pm EST

being a pittsburgher myself, i understand why the people in my city are so upset and offended. We are proud of where we live. There is too much history and too much family here in this town! so screw sienna, i’ve never even heard of her besides what i see in the tabloids, she really messed with the wrong city.

666 | 10/6/2006, 5:51 pm EST

ONLY FAT FEMALES & LOSER MALES HATE A HOT BABE LIKE SIENNA!GO DIE FATTYS & LOSERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!

Laurz | 10/6/2006, 6:04 pm EST

Then get out of our city you little skank! Maybe when your career’s over next week and you have to find a real job (such as a Nanny) Jude may actually begin to love you.

Rosina | 10/6/2006, 6:07 pm EST

Why should Pittsburgh care about what this stupid bitch?

pimp | 10/6/2006, 6:15 pm EST

screw pittsburgh, shes hot.

Richard Walker | 10/6/2006, 6:16 pm EST

I come from the Pittsburg area. Its environment has ranged from horrible to not so bad to pretty nice. Anyone saying it sucks may have been around when that was the best you could say about it. True or false, this is definitely much ado about nothing. Had this been a town in New Jersey, you would have read the typical comment, “I got your Shitsburg right here.” When morons speak does it really matter? lol

Yo Yo | 10/6/2006, 6:24 pm EST

People have opinions, don’t apologize for feeling one way or the other. Go Sienna.

Windy City Dink (Go Bears) | 10/6/2006, 6:26 pm EST

Uh, well, at least most of us know that Pittsburgh exists. (Sienna who? No, seriously…Sienna WHO?)

Nichole | 10/6/2006, 6:26 pm EST

Shame on you Sienna Miller for your lack of class, kindness, respect, and basic courtesy for others. Us “Pittsburghers” were silly to assume that other people were raised with the same morals, values, and basic manners that we were. Maybe others will agree that we shouldn’t take such a tactless comment from a talentless actress so personaly, but as “Pittsburghers”, we were raised to be proud of our town and such immaturity from another human being in which others “used” to look up to is just simply NOT acceptable. The least you could do Ms. Miller is admitt to your wrongs and apologize. I truely hope that next time you decide to open your mouth and make such rude comments about one in many American cities, you think twice, because regardless of what city your criticizing, we are all the same….we are all proud Americans and if you value your semi-ok career, you won’t dare to repeat such an inconsiderate act again. Didn’t your mother teach you to think before you talk?…..OBVIOUSLY NOT!! Good luck in digging yourself out of yet another public mess! (Good thing you have had practice, right?)
Love my Burgh and my Steelers!

Civil | 10/6/2006, 6:29 pm EST

I want to call you names and lash out at you about your actions. But I’m not going to. It doesn’t matter to you what I do or think. I just can’t wait for when you make you public appoligie to Pittsburgh and have to bite your tounge and read eveywhere about how you were shammed.

Kelly | 10/6/2006, 6:32 pm EST

You’re a bitch Sienna! I’m glad Jude cheated on your ass

SteelerKelly | 10/6/2006, 6:33 pm EST

I’m glad Jude cheated on you! Witch!

whogivesadamn | 10/6/2006, 6:39 pm EST

just for the record…if i were riding down the road on my harley and sienna bitch was standing on the shoulder in a miniskirt and skimpy top with her thumb out, i’d ride right on by. i’m not even from pittsburgh, so i don’t care about that or what she said. but, more about stupid people’s comments …oh wait, that’s what makes them stupid! i rest my case!

–ride on

Andy Hay | 10/6/2006, 6:41 pm EST

Well, I think it’s pretty fitting that you’re working in you’re self-proclaimed “shitsburgh” seeing as Sienna is a horribly ugly shade of brown. Perfect to match your equally horrific personality. And, sweetheart, if you actually had some talent, you wouldn’t have to do these indie films you so raucously despise and, in turn, turn a wonderful city brown with your hatred. go back to where you came from. i’m sure you are quite unwelcome in my hometown. Incidentally, i am sending this comment from my funky New York City apartment. Eat that.

Cory | 10/6/2006, 6:55 pm EST

Sienna who?

Jonathan | 10/6/2006, 7:05 pm EST

Pittsburgh is NOT New York City. BIG SHOCKER THERE!
and Sienna Miller is NOT Angelina Jolie by any means.
she’s b-list at best.

it’s a battle of who’s more mediocre.

I’m not from pittsburgh, but i’ve lived here for a few years. All the most fun and collest-ass stuff ISN’T on the RADAR. I can totally understand how first impressions of this city can easily hurt it’s reputation.

Sienna Miller is hot, but not special or memorable – she should take a class in Public Relations, you know, since she’s a WORLD RECOGNIZED INTERNATIONAL celebrity.

My heart's still there | 10/6/2006, 7:12 pm EST

Gotta love people who disparage what they don’t even know. How would she have any idea what the great city of Pittsburgh is like if she’s been sitting in her hotel room most of the time? This woman needs to find some class. As a western PA native, I find her comments offensive and ignorant. No one is making her stay. I say go home and good riddance.

Go Steelers!!

Nick | 10/6/2006, 7:14 pm EST

prima donna

Meatwad | 10/6/2006, 7:20 pm EST

Just proves the fact that these dumbass celebrities think they exist on a higher plain than normal citizens.

Truth is, they take the foot out of their mouth just like the rest of us.

Sienna Miller = just another sad celeb story.

jjjj | 10/6/2006, 7:20 pm EST

Yeah, we have nothing better to do in Pgh. “Say Jebadiah ya wanna go tip some cows tonight….we could take Sienna with us…duuuuuhhhhhh” It’s not suprising a haughty bimbo like that could not see what great city Pgh is. By the way, our steel built NY.

Heas_beas | 10/6/2006, 7:24 pm EST

I had to Google this bitch just to see what she played in. I work and live here. Please go home your causing traffic conditions.

SIENNA = GOD! | 10/6/2006, 7:29 pm EST

YOU FATTYS IN SHITSBURGH SHOULD BE HONERED SHE IS EVEN THERE! SHE IS BEYOND HOT & CAN SAY WHATEVER THE HELL SHE PLEASES!

Shittsburgher | 10/6/2006, 7:32 pm EST

Seriously, all of you who are leaving comments because you are so offended by what Sienna Miller said, please get over it and get a life. Obviously the entire city is pretty insecure with the place they live. You all know that Pittsburgh really has nothing special to offer compared to the major cities in the country. Sienna was just speaking the truth with how she felt. How would you feel if you worked throughout the night and had to sleep during the day, you would think Pittsburgh was boring too. And it kind of is.

texasgrrrl | 10/6/2006, 7:48 pm EST

the nanny may not have been as hot but she’s probably not this much of a holier-than-though b*tch. No wonder her boyfriend got enough of her and started looking around. Go back to Britian, Sienna.

Davisx2 | 10/6/2006, 7:49 pm EST

I was going to see it but not now. Her and Jude-y can screw off back across the Pond because we sure don’t want them here. (mother)

Stupid bee-otch missed the Carnegie Science Center *and* the Carnegie Museum, the Civic Light Opera, and the Steelers at home. Dumb Brits wonder why they lost that war and we still don’t like them, duh. (daughter)

this sounds like a cnt | 10/6/2006, 7:52 pm EST

I HOPE THE COKE YOU BLOW OFF OF THE BELL HOP’S DICK TURNS OUT TO BE A LETHAL COMBO OF BABY LAXATIVE AND RAT POISON.

NICE FACE.

Davis | 10/6/2006, 7:53 pm EST

Stupid bee-otch. She missed both Carnegie Museums, the Opera, and the Steelers at home. She’s bored but didn’t check out the Strip District, how dumb can you get. We won’t pay to see ANY movie with you in it. Screw off and go back Across the Pond, lady. We don’t want you in Pittsburgh.

pghguy | 10/6/2006, 8:03 pm EST

If a film about Pittsburgh is being filmed in Pittsburgh ….. don’t ya think the people making it should pick those that will not crap on the city???? Allot of stupidity on their side. Do us a favor ….. stop filming, get rid of Sienna (and make sure she never comes back), and don’t even thing about showing the film here ….. we’re not going to watch it anyway … ever.

Yawntown | 10/6/2006, 8:08 pm EST

Breeze said: “Funny thing is…if she’d said it about Detroit she’d be dead on.”

No, if she said it about Detroit she’d be DEAD.

i for one think this highly ov | 10/6/2006, 8:08 pm EST

errated skanky waif ought to dial her ipod into “sandwich” mode.

MKM | 10/6/2006, 8:13 pm EST

Washington Post ran her apology – http://www.washingtonpost.com/ wp-dyn/content/article/2006/10 /06/AR2006100600768.html?nav=r ss_artsandliving/entertainment news – see Sienna scramble to collect the remaining pieces of her career. Funny thing is her Dad is from Meadville and he’s going to “show her around the town this weekend.” Better wear a good disguise Sienna.

Bulldog | 10/6/2006, 8:30 pm EST

I just watched a local clip where our mayor stated that “if I can forgive her then we can forgive her” speek for yourself mayor. I have lived in this town longer than you have been alive! I say we hit her where it hurts, the box office.

mick2 | 10/6/2006, 8:54 pm EST

who is sienna miller and why should i care?

JET | 10/6/2006, 8:55 pm EST

This idiot alien bitch wannabe actress has illegitimate children with alien actors and she wonders why her life sucks. Don’t blame it on Pittsburgh, go look in the mirror whore. By the way, we hear your illegitimate baby’s nanny is very hot, is she here in Pittsburgh? The producers of your movie should dump your idiot ass, replace your part with your bastard child’s nanny and re-shoot.

BK | 10/6/2006, 9:01 pm EST

Jeebus. Most of the cities in the states are crap. I’d rather die than live there.

BurghThing | 10/6/2006, 9:39 pm EST

Lemme think, a foreigner whose only claim to fame is that her husband who rather shag the nanny than her. Nope, don’t give 2 squats what she thinks.

Ha, she called your town Shitsburgh!! And the funny part is she’s right, pittsburgh is the gayest place on earth.

LAS | 10/6/2006, 9:55 pm EST

Sienna – who the hell are you? I suppose now that you have crashed and burned your career (before it even went anywhere!) that now we’ll never know!

YINZER | 10/6/2006, 10:26 pm EST

THIS Bitch can go to hell!! Who is Sienna Miller anyway??? She is C list at best….Someone get her an Iron City Beer!

PS-Cleveland Sucks

not a fan | 10/6/2006, 10:32 pm EST

When I first heard this story my first reaction was who? Then when I read what movies she was in, my second reaction was, who?
I think it’s crazy Pittsburghers are taking her comments seriously. I love Pittsburgh, but imagine what she would say if she were in say– Buffalo, or Cleveland, just joshin’ guys. Anyway– years from now if she’s lucky, people will remember this story as — remember when that one actress said something negative about Pittsburgh in Rolling Stone Magazine– what was her name? What was she in again?

smokeandwallow | 10/6/2006, 10:39 pm EST

I was born and raised in Pittsburgh, but I actually have something in common with Sienna Miller: We both are about the same age and have spent much of the last year thinking about Edie Sedgwick. I have logged hours upon hours at the Warhol Museum listening to audio recordings and researching their amazing archive of visual materials in preparation for the book and documentary project I am working on, entitled Edie: Girl On Fire.

I am under the impression that Sienna Miller did no more than stroll the Warhol Museum one day for several hours. She made no use whatsoever of the incredible archive of preserved materials that shed unbelievable light on Edie’s life and artistic vision. The way she describes Edie – as self-destructive victim and drug addict – reveals that Sienna Miller had no interest in understanding that there was something so much more profound and resonant to be explored about Edie’s intimate secrets, and about her approach to her life and her art.

What was it that enabled Edie Sedgwick to fascinate two of the greatest creative minds of her time, Andy Warhol and Bob Dylan? So many of the answers to this enduring enigma were available to Sienna Miller in Pittsburgh, but she probably was in a super-rush to get back to New York or London, so a half-day at the Warhol looking at the pretty silk-screened colors was about all she could apparently handle.

I feel sorry for Sienna. She is so desperate to become a big star and wants our pity because she so needs to stop her “indie year” working in remote places like “__ittsburgh”, an ordeal she has been forced to undergo so she can “get more glamorous films”. She thinks by playing a tawdry Halloween-costume version of Edie the ultimate icon of pop-underground-independent film and life-artistry, she will gain the credibility she needs to score future roles in Hollywood blockbuster movies. Yet Sienna only briefly visits, then later disses, a town where Edie’s spirit resides and can be summoned up by flickering images projected on a screen, by haunting voices tape-recorded on primitive audio four decades ago, all preserved in an institution like the Warhol Museum devoted so passionately to authentica, in a city that is as REAL as a city can be. Honestly, for anyone truly fascinated by Edie Sedgwick, there is no better place to be than Pittsburgh!

Sienna is the opposite of Edie. While Edie had money and boundless popularity, everyone who knew her described her as above all being KIND, gentle, brilliant – and always spontaneous. Edie Sedgwick never had a publicist. Nor did Edie ever regret anything she did in her life – and she certainly did not employ a publicist to quickly get her out of a jam with a prepared statement of an apology. Edie Sedgwick was a life-artist committed to her work because she believed in it – and what she deplored more than anything in the world was phonies and haters.

It is the sign of an immature and thoughtless person to put down and mock with such disrespect and classless scorn a place as welcoming and genuine as Pittsburgh – ESPECIALLY because Sienna has been shooting nights on location and has not even had a chance to discover any of the city’s hidden pleasures. It kind of makes me laugh. Sienna Miller may be my age, and she may think about Edie Sedgwick a lot, but sadly she is far more clueless than I could have ever imagined.

i feel horrible for the film maker. it’s really unfortunate that this film has not been finished with shooting and it already has bad publicity.

even if she does think pittsburgh sucks, maybe she should be a bit more appreciative for what priviledges she actually has…

nice job stickin’ it to your industry that gives you jobs, and an entire city.

stephanie heberling | 10/6/2006, 11:52 pm EST

her apology is complete crap. go home sienna

Lulu | 10/7/2006, 1:54 am EST

As can be expected of an aspiring idiot, she has succeeded in sounding as common as your typical high school student. Don’t get too worked up about the Pittsburgh comments – she has so many other interesting things to say! Her ravenous envy of fame, popularity, and a good drunken lay seem perfectly normal to someone who has the mental capacity and attention span of an average 14-year-old.

Perhaps she can find some solace from her low-class, hollow life in the contents of her next drink.

who cares | 10/7/2006, 3:04 am EST

But Pittsburgh does suck.

mk | 10/7/2006, 4:02 am EST

you know… i’m reading all of these comments and i am almost as appalled at the ignorant remarks of the public as i am of sienna’s comments.

first of all, if you’re going to argue about something, at least stick to the issue at hand. it’s one thing to rebut the case but it’s quite another, in my opinion, to take stabs at someone’s ability to succeed in their chosen profession and their love life, call them obscenities, and demean them further in their own personal perils.

what sienna said may not have been polite, but she is entitled to her opinion. taken in perspective of the situation, which is articulated quite well in the article of two girls hanging out over wine nonetheless, she was just bored! get over it! i live in LA and people are dissing it all the time. you have to take things with a grain of salt and based on their own experiences. you don’t hear me demeaning every pittsburgher who comes to town and insults the place i live! to each their own…

lastly, i just want to say that i don’t agree with what she said, if anything, because it wasn’t an intelligent comment. anyone who’s got a film coming out about a specific locale and especially while it’s still in production should know better. any journalist is never just a “girlfriend” and she should know that by now, having lived so long in the spotlight. but she is young, has her career ahead of her, and wouldn’t be human if she didn’t make mistakes.

also… to the person who mentioned she did no research on edie sedgewick, you obviously haven’t done your research on that which you speak of. sienna miller has been studying that woman for over a year, through museums, visiting with people who knew her well, and so on. she has produced a character so similar, from her research, that she is even being buzzed about on the oscar circuit. just as sienna should watch what she says in the public eye, so should the readers know that what you read at hand isn’t always accurate, nor a well-rounded version of what is true. if you’re going to believe all the media feeds you, then you are just as ignorant.

Davis | 10/7/2006, 8:27 am EST

Stupid girl. I’ve been to London nad it smells worse than the Homestead Works used to –and that’s after they cleaned it up.

I love Pittsburgh and will NEVER spend a dime on anything she is in, promotes, or her b/f either.

Screw you, go back Across the Pond, we don’t want you in Western PA. And you just lost millions for your producers, dummy.

JET | 10/7/2006, 8:45 am EST

Following her bizarre attempt at an apology with her blaming Rolling Stone Magazine for accurately quoting her and describing what a drunken slob she is off camera, all the Pittsburgh news media asked the cast & crew of the movie she’s working on to comment on her alleged apology.

GUESS WHAT? All the comments from the cast & crew were UNANIMOUS that the alleged apology was FAKE and Sienna Miller was ACTING. They said the alleged apology was “too well written” and she’s too much of an IDIOT to have been able to articulate those comments on her own.

They also confirmed that besides being an IDIOT, Sienna Miller was accurately portrayed as a drunk or stoned slob, a lazy untalented bitch with a highly over inflated opinion of her self importance. All this from her fellow actors and the crew working on the film.

The producers of the movie should stop wasting money and cease filming until they can replace Sienna Miller with a REAL actress and re-shoot all the scenes she’s in.

Why has she been leaving filming in Pittsburgh so often to fly back to London? To get more Heroin & Cocaine? Why has she refused to let Room Service clean her hotel room in Pittsburgh? So they don’t find her stashes of Heroin & Cocaine?

Danielle | 10/7/2006, 9:56 am EST

I live in Pittsburgh, and don’t get me wrong, it’s no New York or LA. However, the people that live here are some of the nicest people you’ll ever meet, and I’ve heard celebs and others who have visited the city say that time and time again…she won’t have to worry too much about “eggings and other forms of intense public shaming” we’re too good to stoop to her childish level.

Brooke | 10/7/2006, 12:45 pm EST

The only reason anyone even knows her name is because of Jude Law. No wonder he cheated on her with the Nanny, he was just looking for someone with a little CLASS.

As for the apology, it sounds like something she read off of a script her C-list publicist wrote up. If you hate Pittsburgh so much, how are you going to act in a movie about it? She is not at the skill level as an actress to make anything but her actual feelings believable.

While she is beautiful, beauty is not enough of a feature to keep intelligent people interested. Years from now people are going to say, “Sienna who?”

bucknasty holla atcha boy | 10/7/2006, 1:24 pm EST

when i first heard the comments made by ms. miller, i was quite taken back. they left me distraught and in a state of confusion. why would such a great person offend such a wonderful city. i was so distraught over heard mean comments that i felt the need to tell everyone and anyone. “did you hear about sienna miller’s remarks about ’shittsbrugh?’” when my question is met with a puzzled face, i then tell them, “come on guys! siennea miller, star of the film, ‘the ride,’ aka ‘high speed’ and how could you forget about the monumental, ‘layer cake?’” i mean, the girl is practically jesus, known by all. but still, the people i tell have no clue who she is. and then i tell them, “oh, remember when jude law was fucking his nanny, yeah well, sienna miller was the chick he wasn’t fucking.” and then they have an idea who she is.

Fal | 10/7/2006, 2:10 pm EST

Luckily for her she landed a famous man, Jude Law, or no one would even know she exsists. I don’t even know who this woman is other then hearing about her getting cheated on with the nanny. Apparently she’s as pleasing to her man as she is to the city of Pittsburgh. And apparently as an actress too, or she would get to be in real movies instead of indie films and shitty movies no one is going to pay to watch.

Lynne | 10/7/2006, 2:13 pm EST

I have lived all over the USA and Pittsburgh is still the absolute best city in the world!! Sienna has made a public apology and Burghers have accepted this apology–so let’s cut her a break!!

curt. | 10/7/2006, 2:28 pm EST

Sienna…come on now…you really don’t know better? You are in Pittsburgh, the title of your movie has Pittsburgh in it, and you want to insult us??? Stupid move. About as stupid as getting back with your cheating man. I guess that explains who you are…

No way she will make it out of the city before someone shows her how to keep her mouth shut…What does she know about our dahntahn city girls???

But me personally, I won’t give her a dime, but…I’d be happy to give her a Pittsburgh Platter…or even a Dirty Sanchez…

Speaking of Sanchez…Congrats Freddy, great year with the Bucos…

I | 10/7/2006, 3:21 pm EST

Oh Sienna girl…. I think you are spoiled and perhaps suffering from “Cabin Fever” in your hotel room….. I’m a foreigner living in Pittsburgh and I LOVE IT…. Yes, we are not NY or LA or London… but who cares? We are so much more in different ways….

You say you are bored with nothing to do in your hotel room? Well… there are plenty of nice places to visit here!! Restaurants like Ibiza, Nakama… there are museums, great little shops and butiques, art galleries, dancing venues…. so much…. you just are just probably hanging out with the wrong kind-of people…..

Seriously, just open yourself up!

Kelticgurl | 10/7/2006, 3:46 pm EST

I don’t really care what Sienna thinks about Pittsburgh or any other place for that matter. I just want her to know that she ‘might’ be an animal but I am not. A 24 years old to have given up on our human higher purpose, just sickens me. That attitude that we are animals and that we cannot choose monogamy is going to get her a lifetime of loneliness and shallow relationships. Keep thinking that way if you are afraid to really experience one of the beautiful things in life. I love animals, don’t get me wrong. But Sienna, speak for yourself.

Pittsburgh Brit | 10/7/2006, 3:48 pm EST

As a British transplant to Pittsburgh, I have to stick up for my adopted city. As a celebrity constantly complaining about press intrusion, I would have thought that Ms Miller would have enjoyed her time in Pittsburgh, where she would have been free to enjoy the excellent shopping, bars and friendly atmosphere without being bothered. The only celebrities who get get the star treatment in this town are Steeler’s players, so unless she wanted to party at Hines Ward’s bar no one would have paid her any attention. Maybe thats why she didn’t leave her hotel room.

I used to go to grad school in the ‘Burgh, and I really liked it. All kinds of intriguing architecture, panoramic views and vistas, cafes buzzing with bookish denizens, and mostly very friendly folks.(I wish the musicians and young creatives there would try a little harder to make original and creative art, but I can also say that about my new hometown of Austin.)

FriesOnMySandwich | 10/7/2006, 5:09 pm EST

Give her some Primanti’s, tomorrow night’s Steeler win over the Chargers, and a Boogie Hustlers show (www.boogiehustlers.com) and she’ll never want to leave. Last time I checked London’s football team didn’t win the Super Bowl.

maybe steeler football and quaint homliness isn’t everyone’s forte. to each their own! get over it!

and honestly, if everyone in pittsburgh has nothing better than to sit around and blow out of proportion a mere and somewhat funny comment, then i think that pretty much says it all.

frompgh | 10/7/2006, 7:10 pm EST

yeah right. If she were to call Cleveland the mistake by the lake, everyone there would be up in arms.
If you’re going to attack other people’s homes then expect some retaliation. I actually feel sorry for her because of her narrow mindedness.

Dan | 10/7/2006, 9:32 pm EST

I wouldn’t even bother getting upset about her comments. The description of her throughout the article provides proof that she is nothing more than a narrow-minded ignorant pop-culture bandwagon follower incapable of performing any incredible feat.

grow up some day | 10/7/2006, 10:30 pm EST

The comments to a reporter no matter what the supposed “reasons”, were extremely childish and unprofessional. A for-show damage control apology no less an embarrassment. This shows an incredible lack of judgment. Oh…. surprise. :-D

Pittsburgh is a great place to live and its funny when ppl compare the burgh to NYC and LA when OUR STEEL BUILT THOSE CITIES!!!

Its cool that she apoligized, ill p/b go c the film because i love pittsburgh

P.S. Dont worry about it sienna…Men cheat on their women with the nanny all the time

calling for her head on a plate is really extreme… i dont know anyone from pittsburgh that would say that, considering that i live in the burgh. maybe wut most ppl would do from pittsburgh is just say “…………” they wouldnt say anything… they would just either punch her in the face or just walk away!

Ms. Miller complains that she’s ‘tired of indies’. I believe she needs to remember that without Shitsburgh, she obviously would be unemployed. There’s a reason why you don’t get glamorous films, dear. And now that you have insulted the city that your current film is based in, don’t expect a big draw at the box office from the area that would have attended.

D | 10/8/2006, 9:11 am EST

Consider the source…d-list actress…nice job by her publicist to write her apology…she was just shooting off her mouth to look “cool” in Rolling Stone…in other words who cares?

Lynn | 10/8/2006, 9:43 am EST

The more I think about this, the more I realize that she is just young and immature.

It was really in poor taste though.

I think she was just trying to impress the Rolling Stone Reporter by saying this, like “i am much better than this”

Her apology was certainly not impressive or sincere. More forced than anything.

Mason | 10/8/2006, 9:47 am EST

People in the ‘Burgh probably could care less about what a foreign acctress that no one has heard of cares about their great city. If she would have talked smack on the Steelers or the Pirates, then she would have a real problem.

LORI | 10/8/2006, 11:01 am EST

I think her comments were very low class…which probably says more about her character than the city of Pittsburgh. I grew up in Ohio but have lived on the east coast, west coast, and currently reside in the deep south(Atlanta). I can tell you that Pittsburgh is one of the most beautiful cities in this country. The landscape, the water, the bridges, and the history of the steel/coal industry that made this country the economic powerhouse that it is today is amazing. However,I think the people of Pittsburgh don’t realize what they’re got and can sometimes come off as too defensive. It’s good to love your city and defend your city, but being too defensive makes it seem like there is some truth to her statement.

Anonymous | 10/8/2006, 11:50 am EST

As someone who currently lives in Pittsburgh, I…full-heartedly agree. It’s not that it’s a terrible city necessarily, but it’s a completely mediocre city, and I haven’t really figured out why it exists.

B | 10/8/2006, 11:54 am EST

Having spent some time in Pittsburgh, I can definitely say the pride and dedication the local residents have for their city is almost immediately apparent. They are extremely friendly, and they take great pleasure in telling you all about their city (especially their NFL football team). Anyone having spent the time it takes to shoot a film in Pittsburgh would know exactly what sort of response such a statement would have on the local population.

I cannot help but wonder if Sienna Miller’s disparaging comments weren’t calculated. Her notoriety is, after all, heavily tied to the now stale Judd Law and the nanny media frenzy. What puzzles me is her lack of foresight into the potential negative impact her statement could have on the film? Her comment is tantamount to saying… “Don’t bother coming out to see the film because Pittsburgh and its people are too insignificant to garner any interest.” Throwing your film’s producers into a pre-release damage control mode for the sake of catching a few personal headlines probably isn’t the wisest professional move.

In my book, Pittsburgh’s residents’ opinion their city is completely justified. It is an attractive city with outstanding cultural attributes.

Tracey | 10/8/2006, 8:15 pm EST

I don’t understand her destructive behavior but she definitely made a horrible mistake by bashing this particular city. Some ask why should we care, well, we shouldn’t really. However, Pittsburghers are so proud of our city and would take offense to ANYONE saying anything disparaging about it. It is my personal opinion that she IS just any other person. We’re not really big on kissing celebrity ass here in the Burgh (if she even qualifies as a celebrity). We are friendly to everyone without discretion. It’s the Pittsburgh nature in me to want to personally take her around the city and show her how wrong she is. Living in a hotel room, how can you judge any place really?

I am a native Pittsburgher, lived and vistied many cities like NY, Chicago, Nashville, Denver, Charleston and places like Toronto, Sheffield, Donegal, etc. I very much liked them all! Nothing compares to home though. There is so much to offer here that it’s not even funny. Many people still have a negative view of Pittsburgh as a smoky city. Oh yeah, and we’re not a fat, lazy city as someone alluded to earlier. That person is just displaying the same ignorance and immaturity of Ms. Miller.

In fact, Pittsburgh is actually beautiful with amazing architecture, museums, theatres, rivers and hillsides, and great people and great neighborhoods. It is a reknowned center for higher education, the arts, health care and technology. Pittsburgh is the best city in the world! I believe it offers it all. Yes, this is my opinion. It was also Ms. Miller’s opinion to bash our city. Well again, I think she is not only wrong, but completely misguided in general. I feel that her attempt at an apology was insincere at best.

Oh boy, what a stupid thing to do. I will never go see any movie she is in or any project she is a part of. Bad move Ms. Miller, you picked the wrong city. We are proud and loyal here. Don’t mess with Pittsburgh!

K Dog | 10/8/2006, 8:48 pm EST

I can’t name two movies Sienna Miller has appeared in. I can only name one, and that’s because it was mentioned in this article. I wouldn’t worry about a woman whose claim to fame is that Jude Law cheated on her.

Well, I used to have a French neighbour, after Jann S Wenner visited Adelaide. There was a French Street in the 60s where Mckenzie lived, but where her fater worked, The Waite Agricultural Institute, is now where Iranians worked it out.
They are anti drugs, pro-war. I guess that’s why the French company bought into RS magazine.

p.s. AND Y dont they show her UPPER ST. CLAIR, MT. LEBANON, PLEASANT HILLS, MOON TWP. or WEXFORD(where many ppl, who are 10X richer than her!!) to name a few??? then we will see if its still shitsburgh!!

JET | 10/9/2006, 1:00 am EST

Sienna Miller, during a pre-scheduled interview with an Editor of Rolling Stone Magazine, in a drunken stupor, while trashing her FREE Suite in a world renowned 4 Star hotel, the 3rd rate no-talent actress wannabee, cries into her goblet of cheap wine that her slutty life sucks. She blames her gracious and generous host, the entire City of Pittsburgh, but if she wants to know who is TOTALLY responsible for causing her life to suck, she need only look in any mirror.

Sienna Miller’s co-star Nick Nolte is not complaining. As a matter of fact he’s returning after making the ACADEMY AWARD nominated film “Lorenzo’s Oil” here in Pittsburgh.

She cries that Hollywood should pity her because making a movie in Pittsburgh is way too far beneath her? So in Sienna Miller’s over inflated ego of her own self importance and talent, she is superior to Sir Anthony Hopkins & Jody Foster who both received ACADEMY AWARDS following the filming in Pittsburgh of the Best Picture ACADEMY AWARD winner “Silence of the Lambs”?

Sienna Miller feels Hollywood should pity her because her acting talent deserves superior locations than Robert De Niro, Christopher Walken and Meryl Streep who filmed in Pittsburgh the Best Picture ACADEMY AWARD winner “The Deer Hunter”?

Jack Nicholson and Danny DeVito filmed the ACADEMY AWARD nominated film “Hoffa” in Pittsburgh but Sienna Miller feels she deserves superior locations for her film roles?

So Sienna Miller would have refused roles in all these films that were filmed in Pittsburgh because they were too far beneath her inflated ego: Wonder Boys, Angels in the Outfield, Dogma, Flashdance, Inspector Gadget, Mothman Prophecies, Desperate Measures, Diabolique, Boys on the Side, Lady Beware, Mrs. Soffel, Houseguest, Sudden Death, Milk Money, Only You, Groundhog Day, Money for Nothing, Striking Distance, Dominick & Eugene, Robocop, Gung Ho, Citizen Cohn, Cemetery Club, and Night of the Living Dead.

Michael London, the CEO of Groundswell Productions, who is filming Sienna Miller in “The Mysteries of Pittsburgh”, must be thrilled about the countless millions of dollars her ignorant statements and bizarre off screen behavior have just cost him.

Harvey and Bob Weinstein are behind the film “Factory Girl”, the Edie Sedgwick biopic with Sienna Miller. Edie Sedgwick was a muse of Pittsburgh’s own Andy Warhol. Add more losses of tens of millions of dollars in lost ticket sales to “Factory Girl”, as a direct result of Sienna Miller’s ignorant statements and bizarre off screen behavior.

Edie Sedgwick died in her 20’s of a drug overdose, perhaps life will imitate art, with regards to the bizarre Sienna Miller.

Brian | 10/9/2006, 11:13 am EST

Living in Pittsburgh my whole life, naturally I wanted to throw something at Sienna Miller. But at the same time, I don’t think Pittsburgh’s a town you “get” in a few weeks here. It’s not someplace you instantly fall in love with, unless you are taken with the aesthetics such as the bridges, glass, and bizarre ‘Narnia’-style architecture of PPG Place.

We have hardly any music clubs. Neko Case, Jenny Lewis, Bright Eyes, Mastodon? I don’t know the last time they played here. Movie premieres. We get them last. Young people? Yeah, there are some, but this mostly is a place of older people who can’t drive to save their lives and whine anytime there’s even a sniff of progress (which is why the downtown region STILL hasn’t been touched and remains a ghost town on the weekends).

But if you spend some time here, you know there’s more than meets the eye. We have some pretty neat art galleries. We have Mr. Smalls, a converted Millvale church that now is a music club. We have intimate, neighborhood-ish night spots such as the South Side and Strip District that contain bars that have almost a clique-ish feel. We also have this borderline unhealthy love for the Pittsburgh Steelers that compares to how British soccer fans express emotion for their teams and national sport. It’s sick how people here are into the Steelers, but it’s what helps make us communal.

I’m sure Sienna Miller experienced none of this. I’m sure she got only a small helping of the city, and trust me, I can understand if the first taste was a little bitter. But if she had time to spend here, she’d find some things to her liking. We’re not NYC or LA or Atlanta or anything. But we’re unique and pretty much a cult. Once you’re a member of said cult, you’re always a member, no matter where you live. You never really get out. If you aren’t from here, you don’t get that. And that’s OK.

And hell, we’re a ton better than Cleveland, if if our respective football teams have the same amount of wins right now. :-)

whatever sienna | 10/9/2006, 11:17 am EST

what the heck is wrong with you!Rolling Stone is cool, I guess you just wanna be cool, instead you just took a dive at the box office. Never heard of you, but now that I know your name, I know what not to see at the movies if your name appears. Disgrace…

It’s a ‘Burgh Thing | 10/9/2006, 11:37 am EST

Did anyone see the video of Sienna’s (pseudo)apology to the city of Pittsburgh? Her hair looks like a freakin’ lhasa apso! And when did her face get so fat? Yeeesh! If you’re gonna knock my hometown, honey, you better at least look good while you’re doing it! I know 50,000 Herbal Essences bleach blondes in Pittsburgh who got a better dye job than you did, you second-rate shill!

And by the way, what kind of a putty-faced dolt makes a movie about a city – and then knocks the city??? What a dumb ass! With a blue-collar last name like “Miller,” you oughta know better than to knock a town like ours, ya clueless snotty twit! The only mystery of Pittsburgh is why they didn’t strap a bag of pierogies to ya and toss your high-fallutin, sorry arse into the Monongahela River when they had the chance.

Screw you, Sienna, you dumb dog! Sienna is the color of bullcrap!
BOYCOTT THE MOVIE! DOUBLE YOI!

P.S. By the way, Sienna, love, you might want to lay off the cupcakes while you’re in the ‘Burgh, even us slovenly commoners know better than to go around looking like that.

Sienna, a blonde-C-List “actress,” with a husband, albeit a pretty boy, was boinking the nanny, and she was a fat hog, so Sienna, you must be a frigid twat in bed for Jude to be shagging the whale nanny. And for all of you haters also pegging the city, do your f-n homework and read a few history books on the industrustial revolution, the building industries and steel construction, etc., etc.

Sienna, I am a Pittsburgher who now lives in one of your “industry,” towns and you’re a drop in the bucket, a bleach-blonde-standard-looking girl with no personality. You grow on trees in the “funky,” towns.

Go back to the UK or France wherever it is you were spawned with the rest of the miserables.

G Unit | 10/9/2006, 1:14 pm EST

Sienna is a bimbo and Old McDonald should go back to sleeping with goats on his farm.

etherredneck | 10/9/2006, 1:56 pm EST

Opinions are like assholes and there are many in Pittsburg it seems. Everyone has a right to theirs for and against. The comments on here just prove Sienna Miller correct in hers’. Shitheadsburg.

Sean | 10/9/2006, 2:03 pm EST

I have to agree with Brian…once you’ve seen Cleveland…yeesh…i must admit thought, they are doing alot to try to fix it up

jim | 10/9/2006, 2:49 pm EST

I’m from the South Side of Chicago, and I’ve never even been to Pittsburgh. This whole thing could potentially be hilarious. I don’t know if she’s right or wrong, but it definitely sounds like she is a spoiled bitch. Screw the “let’s show her why she’s wrong” approach… I hope she gets vegetables thrown at her in public or something.

Zsa | 10/9/2006, 3:18 pm EST

I’m from Pittsburgh, but after reading that excerpt I honestly think I’m more offended by her saying she was able to capture Edie Sedgewick’s “anguished aura” by thinking about her manwhore husband fucking the nanny. Edie Sedgwick lived through the death of two beloved brothers (one by his own hand), several stays in mental hospitals and what could only be described as a mentally debilitating childhood and adolescence. This all BEFORE she even hooked up with Andy Warhol.

At any rate – anyone who doesn’t get out of the hotel bar is obviously going to hate whatever city they’re in. I can only guess that her deluded ass thought she was soooooo famous she might get mobbed or something.

rach | 10/9/2006, 3:43 pm EST

I’m from near Pittsburgh, and I’d just like to say that I know she’ll get what’s coming to her for saying that. No matter which city or town she would’ve badmouthed, someone would get pissed. Here’s to a crate of tomatoes on her trailer!

shitsinatti!!! | 10/9/2006, 3:56 pm EST

u say pittsburgh sucks but cleveland and cincinatti are even worse!!

it is true that if she said that about any other city, ppl would get pissed. everyones makin it look like pittsburghers are the only ones who will STAND UP for their city, which makes everyone else a bunch of pussies!!!

word

Burgher | 10/9/2006, 4:06 pm EST

im from pittsburgh…

if this was angelina jolie that said that….that there would be a huge uproar because shes angelina jolie!!!

but when its a d-list celeb, (if that even qualifies as a celebrity!!) no one should care because its just a no-name actress who is only a d-list celeb because she f*cked and played “bump * bump” with a b-list celeb.

so there shouldnt even be that big of a deal or there shouldnt even be this many comments about this because this is all gonna blow over by next week!!

Anonymous | 10/9/2006, 4:27 pm EST

As a happy transplant to the burgh (not a native), I just have to say that anyone who disses the city whose location is integral to the film (as it is to the book by the Pulitzer Prize winning Chabon) not only owes the city an apology, but owes one to her producer and studio as well. Ouch! That’s gonna hurt at the box office.

Peanut | 10/9/2006, 5:40 pm EST

I really used to be a big fan of hers, but ever since she’s said those things, I’ve really lost all of my respect for her. I’ve been to Pittsburgh, and there’s so many things to do there, I don’t see why she had to make those rude comments.

'Burgh Native | 10/9/2006, 7:27 pm EST

How dare Sienna Miller make a movie about OUR city and stay/work in OUR city, yet still diss it to a popular magazine. If anyone sees her around town I wish they would throw mud or rotting vegetables at her.

Someone please deport her back to her own stupid country. She doesn’t even belong here. F*cking foreigner.

And darling… you can’t get the most popular glamorous movies that the REAL actresses get because you have absolutely no talent to speak of. You’re just a lame-ass ho with blonde hair.

If I see you in the street I will punch you in the face. (And I’m a chick so this is completely kosher)

easyrider | 10/9/2006, 7:36 pm EST

I had no respect for her before and I have even less now and that’s coming from a british girl. I lived in Pittsburgh for a few months earlier this year and I enjoyed my time immensely, you’ve got great restaurants and bars and there’s always something to do.

Yinzer08 | 10/9/2006, 7:40 pm EST

F*ck her….The only reason she is known is because of her ex who dumped her ass for the maid….

'Burgh Girl | 10/9/2006, 9:29 pm EST

Ms. Miller doesn’t know what to do with herself because the lives of Pittsburgh folk don’t revolve around plastic surgery, botox, and anorexia. God forbid she’s in a city where people are rooted. I’m glad she posed with the mayer on TV…Bob O’Connor wouldn’t have liked her!

Worship the Gold Calf!! | 10/9/2006, 9:36 pm EST

Sienna Miller is just another pretty face. Enjoy the “funky” apartments bitch.

drjones | 10/9/2006, 10:27 pm EST

Generally, eastern PA natives don’t mind slagging Pittsburgh a bit; but it’s all in good fun and never malicious. I have to be honest I’ve been an RS subscriber for a while now and Ms. Miller’s take on Pittsburgh was pretty childish. It actually made me put the magazine down without finishing the article. First time that has happened. Pittsburgh, as a city, has always been extremely supportive of the arts. The number of wonderful films that have been produced there is extremely distinguished. This is to say nothing of the general notion that England has more than it’s share of industrial cities that have tumultuous weather patterns. Perhaps she feels equal disdain for the cities of Liverpool and Manchester, which are great cities, but they are not London or New York either.

Acting like a child will never bring out from beneath the mantle that is her current tabloid existence. There is no better evidence than this string of comments. Instead of talking about her talent, of which little has been displayed on screen as of yet (but may flourish in the coming year), we are discussing what is in essence her immaturity.

Perhaps her role in Alfie was so convincing because she is, perhaps, a disrepectful, selfish, hedonistic human being. Perhaps, she’s actually lovely and just needs to grow up. Either way, there will be many places a person visits in their lives they don’t like. While freedom of speech allows us to voice any opinion we so choose, decency still asks that we take up the personal responsibility of respecting our fellow human beings.

If I were from Pittsburgh I would be upset, but I would not bother with “egging” or for that matter engaging in this moment beyond only one intelligent response. It’s a bigger city than that, one of outstanding character and ethic. The kind of city that truly makes this country great because it’s part of the broad shoulders that hold the rest of us up. Just because it doesn’t set trends NYC, LA or London doesn’t make it any less of a wonderful place. For that matter take a survey of where most people would prefer to raise a family.

Here’s to hoping she gets out and explores the waterfront, the museums and the countryside and realizes she’s childish. Even if she doesn’t, here’s to hoping she matures, gains healthy respect for those outside her managment team and producers, directors and studios and flourishes into an exemplary woman. It won’t be the first time someone pulls themselves up by the bootstraps and makes a better person of themselves. It happens in cities like Pittsburgh all the time.

hey bree

Pittsburgher Here! | 10/9/2006, 11:08 pm EST

Pittsburgh is a great city and most smart people know that you don’t talk trash about Pittsburgh, especially while you are staying there. I am going to say that the rest of her stay in the Burgh is going to be hell … or at least I hope so.

TJ | 10/10/2006, 12:18 am EST

While every one is entitled to their opinion, common sense has to come into play somewhere. Ms. Miller, you are making a film in a city based on a book ABOUT said city. Why on earth would you bite the hand that feeds you? I bet my salary that if I were to trash the company I work for to the media, I would be out of a job.
TO MY FELLOW PITTSBURGHERS, DON’T STOOP TO HER LEVEL. A BLOW TO THE WALLET WILL CERTAINLY STING MORE THAN A FAT LIP. BOYCOTT THE MOVIE. THE BOOK IS ALWAYS BETTER ANYWAY.

Rob | 10/10/2006, 6:53 am EST

Just ignore her. That’s what the population of Great Britain is doing, despite her being all over the tabloids. The funny thing is… can she even act? I can’t remember seeing her in anything apart from a wordless, naked cameo in layer Cake.

your god | 10/10/2006, 8:13 am EST

hey folks this is simple really,ANY chick who takes her clothes off for money,on video,is a porn star.so she is a porn star.so who cares what she thinks.

Jude should have stayed with the nanny.

Huh? | 10/10/2006, 9:27 am EST

Dear God you people all need some help, good for you, you like you city. One chick who will never be back there doesnt like it who cares. Not too mention its Pittsburgh isn’t exactly one of the top cities in the US, hell not even on the east coast. Unless you were born there, you hardly ever find people who actually like Pittsburgh. If I was rich the only places I would want to be less than Pittsburgh are Detroit and Compton.

Pittsburgher in Paradise | 10/10/2006, 9:35 am EST

1 word – pigwhore. People from the burgh know what I mean.

How I wonder | 10/10/2006, 9:45 am EST

I pose the question to everyone bitching that Pittsburghers are taking this too personally and that they should get a life, if Mrs. Miller had said New York City should be called New Barf City, or LA should be called Lost Angelus or Chicago, Shitcago. If they would be saying that people from those cities would be over reacting.

And ohh ya, we make fun of Philly, city of brothers with guns, but it’s like 2 brothers picking on each other so we’re allowed. I even cheer the Eagles as they trounced TO’s ass.

Jeff | 10/10/2006, 9:52 am EST

It’s pretty immature to be making fun of a city without really having seen any of it. She’s probably staying in downtown and realizes downtown is dead after 8PM, so she thinks the entire city has nothing going on. As someone who went to school in Pittsburgh, it skews to college kids and older people; she’s probably not going to find the trendy NY 30 something places she’s looking for. That said, she needs to get off her high horse and go see the city. It may not be what she expects, but it has plenty to offer.

Born in the 'Burgh | 10/10/2006, 10:39 am EST

Well, this puts me in a bind… I’d like to see the movie but don’t feel like supporting that skank. She just bit the hand that feeds her. Maybe she could get more glamorous roles if she could act? Sorry Pittsburgh is not “plastic” enough for you.

lovey dovey | 10/10/2006, 2:04 pm EST

In all honesty, the only reason I( and probably most others) know of Sienna Miller is because Jude Law slept with their Nanny and now because of the remark she has just made. Its a shame because I really was looking forward to this movie, but to see it would be supporting her. As a Pittsburgh-er my whole life, I can sincerely tell you that I wouldn’t love to live anywhere else. Sure, its no NYC or LA, but this town’s got heart and soul… and a super bowl winning football team! If this C-list actress wants to get better jobs, I suggest she gets acting lessons.

doc | 10/10/2006, 2:23 pm EST

I really did feel bad about Sienna’s name being dragged through the press after her boyfriend cheated on her. I had no idea that she was an actress. I can actually understand why he cheated on her. Its not always the guys fault.

Her comments on Pittsburgh . . . who cares. Pittsburgh is a great place and I know I will not be watching this movie. I really would have liked to but, now I refuse to support her.

Johnny | 10/10/2006, 4:06 pm EST

I don’t know her, I don’t know her films, I’m not even from Pittsburgh, but someone ought to line her up on the 50 yard line of Heinz Field, and, after taking Troy Palamalu out of his cage, let him give her one of those flying tackles he’s known for. Go Blitzburgh.

franQ | 10/10/2006, 4:11 pm EST

The boycott by MYSTERIES OF PITTSBUGH fans has NOTHING to do with Sienna Miller’s diss of the ‘burgh.

Director/writer Rawson Marshall Thurber is ruining the story by CHANGING it!

http://grousps.myspace. com/MOPfilm

Gone is the GAY character, Arthur Lecomte and Phlox Lombadri has been whittled down to the “sometime girlfriend” thanks to Sienna Miller’s beefed-up character, Jane Bellwether. And Cleveland as a bisexual!?

Boy what a let down… everyone wanted to dis on her….but nobody even knows who she is! Including the bouncer who kicked her out! That’s almost too good!

You would have thought that the spoiled rotten no-talent bitch Sienna Miller would have learned by now ….

PITTSB URGH BOUNCER: “Honey, you need ID to drink here to be a patron” …… “Sienna ripped off her hat and said, ‘I am Sienna Miller. I am a famous actress!’”

SIENNA MILLER’S MOM: “Don’t you know who this is?”

PITTSBURGH BOUNCER: “We escorted Sienna Miller out the exit. She was going crazy out there, stomping her feet, walking up and down the street for 30 minutes”

OWNER OF THE TAVERN: “There was no reason for her to act like she did. No ID, no entry — I’m sorry, we can’t bend the rules for anybody.”

mdm | 10/11/2006, 2:29 am EST

in an ironic twist, Sienna’s father was born in Meadville, PA which is 90 minutes north of Pittsburgh. Apparently she has not spent much time there or she would have a much better feel for the heart and soul of the region. Hopefully as she matures she will learn to embrace and learn from places and situations that are outside her comfort zone.

If any of you shitsburghers ever visited another city besides cleveland or cincinatti you would realize how truly shitty the shit city of shitsburgh really is. And Clemson might possibly be the best university in the country. Effer, you probably went to Allegheny and/or IUP.

You’ve all got it wrong.

We don’t have to anything.

Just sit back and watch this stuck-up queen-bitch continue to self-destruct, before she crawls out of town on October 18 after the film wraps here in Pittsburgh.

Who would have known that Sienna Miller’s FREE true-life “comedy” would be ten times better than the movie “The Mysteries of Pittsburgh”, that no one NOW will be willing to pay to see, thanks to her foul mouth and totally selfish attitude.

No wonder she constantly fills the Tabloids in the U.K., Canada and the United States with the exploits of her failed life. The Slutty Sienna Miller Comedy is a never ending story.

An embarrassing thing for both the lady and New York, and I feel sorry for her employers too. They had to construct that mortifyingly bad damage control apology thing. Oh and her poor family that is from western PA has to live with this. Gosh. Well anyway, hopefully she will learn something from this and mend the immature self-serving attitude and become a better person.

jj | 10/11/2006, 4:24 pm EST

For all of you that are faulting Sienna Miller on her comments, I really question whether you’ve ever been to the unfortunate city of Pittsburgh. Those that grow up there rarely get the chance to leave – it’s not exactly the land of opportunity – so their opinions are skewed. For the rest of us, though, we should be thankful that we don’t live there.

Tim | 10/11/2006, 5:49 pm EST

Pittsburghers probably do need to not take criticism so hard, although I must say most of the comments on here (both pro- and anti-pgh) are hyped up way above what you’ll hear even in Pittsburgh.

That said, movie casts have no right complaining about ANYWHERE they go. The visitors bureau, arts council, and every other city office bends over backwards (as is their job) to make the lives of filmmakers and such easier while they’re here.

Pgh has a problem with glorifying it’s gritty past (e.g. blue color steel workers, pounding Yeunglings), and then getting pissed when people believe untrue, negative images (e.g. the air is dirty, the buildings are sooty, etc.). Sort of like when your parents tell you BS stories about having to walk to school “up hill, both ways, in the freezing snow” thinking somehow you envy them. If the yinzers settled down and presented their city in a more worldly light, that would certainly be a step in the right direction.

P.S. – I wonder if Sienna’s ever heard the FEAR song “New York’s Alright (if you like saxophones)”. I think her view of NYC is that of the spoiled brat she comes off as in the tabloids, and might be surprised that other people have a different opinion.

15 Best Skylines in the World

http://www.diserio.com/top 15-skylines.html#top

I have been to New Orleans, New York, Chicago, Los Angeles, among many other cities.
Even the most glittery of places can be boring to those with little going on inside the mind.

Pittsburgh is our home. I love it here. Go down to the South Side and have some fun. You get what you bring, in life. If you want to see shit, you will see shit, but one of the most fundamental, simple pieces of knowledge, we can all hold on to is, you don’t go into someone’s home, and make fun of it.
It’s impolite. The question wasn’t do you like Pittsburgh. It was do you think Ms. Miller should apologize?
She already has apologized, but I don’t know how sincere it was, and am sure that some grownup made her do it.
For those of you out there, who want to keep insulting someone else’s home, I only hope that your parents can help you too.

KKKKati | 10/11/2006, 8:40 pm EST

Sienna is obviously lacking the couth and class of a true Hollywood starlet. Every city is lovely in their own right and to speak unkind of Pittsburgh is tacky since Pittsburgh is the at the very heart of her film. Her “movie star” status, thanks only to her super star boyfriend -we would not know her name. Her comment about Pittsburgh speaks volumes about her character and her acting ability after hearing her “apology”.

eurotrash | 10/11/2006, 10:10 pm EST

it is quite amazing to me that an actress making a film called “mysteries of pittsburgh” would make the comments that she made! especially when she plays edie sedgewick, andy warhol’s muse, in her next movie — and andy was born in pittsburgh! hello, sienna! you just went to the warhol museum. i think that her comments show sienna’s lack of class, tact, and curiousity about the world. and the funniest part is that her dad is from meadville — just north of pittsburgh. so, in effect, she insulted her own father! wow; again wow; i mean, black eyeliner and a hair straightener can only make someone so glamorous. maybe she should try to add a little sensitivity and intellect to her image.

I just relocated to Pittsburgh a while ago. I have been amazed at how bad this city sucks. I expected something much better. It’s so bad that I am making arrangements to relocate again. Sienna Miller just told the truth. It’s not personal. Maybe the people of pittsburgh should get out now and then…..oh yea open your eyes and think. Pittsburgh sucks…accept it!

Pittsburgh | 10/12/2006, 1:48 am EST

I’m grown and raised in Pittsburgh.. Believe me or not Pittsburgh has the good times and the bad times it is like any city in the United States. We are not high class like the California or New York or any of that she is use to. We are proud of what we can from.. People in Pittsburgh whether they are either rich or poor.. We make something of ourselves.. We make our life how we want it to be. we don’t have it handed to us on a sliver platter. But she needs to realize honey u are not doing HIGH CLASS FILMS like the other actress in Hollywood like Julia Roberts, Reese Witherspoon, Katheryn Zitta Johns, Sandra Bullock..Maybe she just needs to smile at the camera and not talk b/c it just makes her look bad.. If this was any other actor/actress they would be in the same boat…

JET | 10/12/2006, 2:02 am EST

Yo GO CM! ~ from your IP, we see we have another faker from Public Eye Communications LTD claiming to be a ‘Burger. Yea you only “relocated to Pittsburgh a while ago” because you are one of Sienna Miller’s P.R. “handlers” here during the filming of “The Mysteries of Pittsburgh”.

Yup you will be “making arrangements to relocate again”, because you and Sienna Miller will be finished here on October 17, so you all can crawl back to London.

When are you IDIOTS from Public Eye Communications LTD going to realize that Pittsburgh is one of the Top 3 Computer Technology Centers in the United States and we can “see” who you “really” are here on the Internet when you pretend to be ‘Burgers.

fellow pgh hater | 10/12/2006, 11:50 am EST

unfortunately i was born and raised in pgh, pgh sucks, its a very small minded town, w/ people who think there a being progressive but really arent, it’s one of the most racist cities in the country, there isnt any true culture and true love for the arts, no out of the box thinking, and the nitelife is horrible, and there are no cool places to shop for anything except millions of chain stores, sure there are tons of clubs, the carnegie museum, and the pgh cultural trust, etc etc, but the people that run these establishments are small minded ignorant-country people, so there for it is shitsburgh, i am an engineer for a top company, went to some of the best schools in the city, it really does suck- ,trust me

Jordan | 10/12/2006, 9:37 pm EST

Half these comments are from people who clearly have never been to Pittsburgh. I’m proud to call the ‘Burgh my hometown. It’s a beautiful town with some of the best food and restaurants in the country. The people there are awesome and are loyal to their hometown and everything about it. Anyone who claims it’s a dirty city is just assuming it is because of all the old steel mills. Sienna Miller made a big mistake insulting the town she’s making a movie about, because people in Pittsburgh NEVER forget. Hell, we still haven’t forgiven Sid Bream!

Uh oh | 10/12/2006, 10:41 pm EST

Even if you don’t care for a place, you don’t say things like THAT. In print yet. The makers of the film must be pretty darn annoyed. Unbelievable :-D

Beezus | 10/13/2006, 2:06 am EST

Sienna is obviously an actress and not a politician. While I commend her for expressing herself in a forthright manner, she needs to gain a bit of maturity and learn to employ a public persona that will not annoy people.

minneapolis | 10/13/2006, 2:19 pm EST

It’s all so entertaining. Both sides making good points. Sienna needs to show some sensibilities and courtesy. On the other hand, forgiveness is divine. And if we have a third hand, isn’t there a saying about any press is good press? Shitsburgh is kind of funny. Never heard such reference in all my years. And don’t feel so bad, the Twin Cities has its own lack of a robust nite life. Any girl over 29 hides out in her apartment or gym club. OR, if they do show up it is with 5 other girl friends. They sit at a table in a bar and laugh at everything any of them say, and NEVER look around. Why? Because they are all oh-so concerned about image, not their true well beings. They want us (guys) to think their lives are so fulfilling and complete and successful and happy, and they have no use for any pitiful stranger. They could be a 4, 5 or 6 on the silly “looks scale” but their actions speak they are a 10 and they are to be envied.

Ok, where was I? Pittsburgh. Oh I always hated Pittsburgh because of the Steelers. Yes, you had great teams in the 70’s, but don’t get all full of yourselves. They were not the greatest team or teams ever. I am not interested in your criteria for measuring this immeasurable point. Consider yourselves lucky as much as good. The Viking defenses and offenses and regular season records could match or surpass your own, but we are only looked upon as the loser of 4 super bowls. Ok, we cannot fight city hall. But this boasting and over emphasis on oneself is a tad loathsome.

Having said that, I bet Pittsburgh is not much different than us other second tier major cities. WE all have our plusses and minuses. WE all need to be grateful for what we have and not worry about the pettiness NYC or LA seems to want to exude. That phoniness or haughtiness does not sit well with God. STay humble.

Also, you did give us Perry Como and Arnold Palmer. Awesome. Lots of Italians, too. Great. And eastern Pennsylvania and Western Ohio has produced the most incredible number of great professional football players. We are humbled by that.

Correction to minneapolis | 10/13/2006, 2:28 pm EST

Make that Western Pennsylvania and Eastern Ohio as the cradle of professional football.

Also, being from Minnesota I have always taken a real interest in hockey. The Penguins have produced their share of highlights over the years. Lemieux, second to Gretzky. Yagr, undeniable. Crosby, can’t wait to see him blossom. One more thing if anyone cares about my opinion. Roberto Clemente was the greatest of them all!

In 5 Years ... | 10/13/2006, 6:49 pm EST

Who cares what some ditzy, pinot guzzling barfly says? When her looks go, so will her career. Then it’ll be “Sienna WHO”?

What an idiot | 10/17/2006, 9:25 am EST

It’s everyone’s right to have an opinion of this city, but what an idiot! Why would you say that when you still had to stay in this city? Not to mention the fact that you want people to watch your movie and not piss off the directors; bad publicity for them. And who the hell is Sienna Miller? Never heard of her or seen her. I’m glad that bouncer did what he did. Who is she to get special treatment? Who cares what she says. If you like Pittsburgh, it shouldn’t matter. She’s just small minded, petty, and immature.

siennagriller | 10/17/2006, 5:16 pm EST

Reality check! Get some perspective Sienna – you are no better than anyone else regardless of how rich or pretty or young you are. Do you pity your self? Boo hoo. Work in a real factory, Facotry Girl. I will never pay for your movies, but I will copy them!

Gwen | 10/18/2006, 1:21 pm EST

When I heard about this, I had to think really hard about who she even was, as did my boyfriend. We are both huge movie buffs, but she’s such a shitty actress that she’s barely memorable.

Second-rate actresses like her NEED to talk trash about people and places to make themselves more important than they are.

Sorry, Sienna, you just aren’t important enough to pull off the whole diva thing. I guess talking trash and getting cheated on are your only means of getting into the headlines.

JET | 10/19/2006, 3:44 pm EST

Yo “infamous actress Sienna”, go watch the movie FLASH DANCE that was made here in Pittsburgh. Yup all the girls here in Pittsburgh are as HOT as all the girls in that movie, because most of the girls in the movie were from Pittsburgh as extras. Times sure have changed. Your bony ass, fat face, would never have gotten hired as an extra in the movie FLASH DANCE.

They just showed on the news that while filming “Mysteries of Pittsburgh” here, they had to hire a “body double” for you during the Cocktail Party Scene because your acting was so bad. They replaced your scenes with a REAL BLONDE violinist named Olga, that everyone on the set said was WAY HOTTER looking than you!

For those of you are are stupid enough to waste your money to see this movie in 2007, watch the “Cocktail Party Scene” and checkout Sienna’s “Body Double / Stand-in” playing the violin.

Now if only they would replace all your other scenes with Olga, I would be the first in line to buy a ticket, when the movie is released in 2007.

First off she does not look any better than normal women I see everyday, she must have known someone in the business” you know what I mean”. maybe hollywood has chnaged because if they let plain janes like her in, then there is room for anyone.

sweetmadepies | 10/23/2006, 3:57 pm EST

Anyone who says Pittsburgh sucks is a boring person. If you expect every place to be like New York and LA or whatever, what is the point of traveling? Sorry we don’t have a million trendy nightclubs with $20 covers and Louis Vuitton stores all over the place, but there are many ways to have fun here. Every city has its own charm, and pompous extravagance is not part of ours. It’s the people that make Pittsburgh great!

CT | 10/24/2006, 5:37 pm EST

She is entitled to her opinion, however crudely put. And yes there are certain sections of Pittsburgh I would advise people to avoid. But I’m sure there would be the same response from the locals if she had insulted New York or any other city. As a lifelong resident I’ve encountered people that could easily be described as narrow-minded and backward, even though Pittsburgh, like New York, tends to vote Democrat, which has always puzzled me. I’d like to add that many Pittsburghers are trying considerably to improve their city, like the late Mayor Bob O’Connor. I sincerely hope that someday we can be on par with the bigger cities of the country but I still like Pittsburgh the way it is now, with all its flaws. It could be alot worse and it has been.

getaclue | 10/25/2006, 1:50 pm EST

If you really think pittsburgh is so great, then ask yourself why this godforsaken city is filled with only locals. No one wants to move to the pitts of hell. the majority of pittsburghians think there city is so great because they have never been West of Ohio or East of Altoona. Get a clue shitsburgh

For someone to make those sorts of comments, shouldn’t you be something? Pittsburgh, like every city, has its local charm – abhorred by outsiders but cherished by the locals. Like every city, it does have its showcase pieces and the dark underbelly. Calling it Sh*tsburgh goes a bit far. There is a world beyond London, New York, and LA. She should gain a better appreciation for it if she ever wants to gain popular support and become a legitimate actor. If not, all she will be remembered as is Jude Law’s slam piece. Don’t insult the hands that feed you, because this movie probably would not have been too big outside of western Pennsylvania.

OMG! she must have fucked the whole team!!! BTW – “SHITSBURGH” is actually funny!! i chuckled after hearing about it… it shows that she has a normal sense of humor and most ppl around here would probably come up with shits instead of pitts. it was just a harmless joke!, she only apoligized because all the retarded ppl in pittsburgh took it seriously!

silverscream | 12/6/2006, 5:55 pm EST

What do you all think of the Queen’s new movie, Factory Girl? I’m a huge Edie Sedgewick fan, so I feel a bit invested in the whole fiasco. Let me just say I’ll share my opinion with this post from http://www.edienation.com

“It must be real”
Posted on Wednesday 29 November 2006

Edie was a filmmaker, a collaborator and artist with other underground and experimental filmmakers at a time when making a non-Hollywood film was almost a revolutionary act. Like you she was young at a time when a wave of technological advancements– new video camera, audio recorders and film cameras– were putting power in the hands of the people to tell their own stories. This is a pursuit she believed in fiercely. She said often to fellow adventurers in her filmmaking pursuits, “It must be real, if it isn’t real, there is no movie.” On the eve of the release of a HIGHLY fictionalized Hollywood account of Edie’s life, we hope you will join us in our Internet and video experiment of making real screen tests of real people. WE know you can tell the difference, as she would have wanted, between what is real and what is not.

-Melissa Painter

“I do love Alice in Wonderland though. That’s something I think I could do very well. Don’t you think we ought to do an A.W.? A.W.’s Alice in Wonderland? Andy Warhol’s Alice in Wonderland? A.W. stands for a lot of things, I understand. It, uh, it would make a fantastic film. So I wanted somebody to write the script for it, in a modern sense. Think it would be the most marvelous movie in the world. If it could be done. Don’t you think? Really I don’t think they’ve done one since they did a Walt Disney one- which isn’t really doing it. In a sense it is, but not in the way it really should be done. What’s needed right now is a real scene. I mean not just cartoon characters but the actual character of people because there’s so many fantastic people that you might as well use the people.”

– EDIE 1965

“To be an underground filmmaker… one felt that you were engaged in forbidden activity, which of course lead us to Andy and 47th St and the factory because Andy was hosting this whole feeling of rebellion in image where we could all participate in doing things that were ridiculous and absurd…and so to get a bunch of people who all feel that the sky’s the limit to start being able to do crazy ridiculous image with Andy…

[John, what did it feel like to be in a movie that Warhol directed?] Well, it felt like you were talking your pants off. It was embarrassing. You wondered what were you doing? Why are you doing this? And yet at the same time you knew… You didn’t know then, but to think about it now, I mean imagine you are there and there’s a hundred million dollars worth of art lying around on the floor, and these people fooling around with cameras. Andy, and I’m there with him doing the same thing, and there’s Edie, and we’re all there doing this. And so on the one hand there’s the rebellion, because you know you’re not supposed to, and on the other hand you know that its really really important, and yet its just going to disappear. So that was a peculiar feeling. ”

A Pennsylvania Man | 10/13/2007, 1:52 pm EST

To the idiot that says western Pennsylvania consists of a bunch of “ignorant, country bumpkins” or whatever you said, go to San Francisco or LA or some other liberal city. There you can be treated to “progressive, sophisticated” folk who have every STD in the book, have sex out in the street with those “gay pride parades” while we so-called “Country Bumpkins” are living twice as long as they are because we actually understand the importance of morals and standards.

By embracing what makes a society work, we’re suddenly “backwards” and “ignorant”? You’re ignorant for believing everything your college professor told you. The super left wing ideas that you embrace aren’t much different from a mix of what brought down Rome and primitive Upper Paleolothic free sex.

EducatedPittsburgher | 1/16/2008, 7:32 pm EST

Wow. Wow is all i have to say for all of the comments from these unfortunate Pittsburghers who have obviously never left their county, or they would subsequently have a completely different, not so staunch standpoint, on what “exists outside the safe borders of their home city.” I have traveled abroad, lived abroad, and attend one of the 3 top-notch universities in Pittsburgh, as does my wife, and this place is severely lacking in several aforementioned criteria. If you think this place is/you are top-notch, I have a suggestion. Leave for awhile. See what’s out there. Enjoy the vast array of different cultures and experiences this planet has to offer, and as soon as you set foot in the good ol’ Pittsburgh International (oxymoron?) Airport, you’ll understand. I unfortunately was raised here, but I keep that experience as a positive delimiter to compare what life can really be like; amazing…if you leave:)

Pittsburgh is my favorite place to vacation. When I’m not working or educating myself I travel back to Pittsburgh. Grew up in Pittsburgh. By far one of the coolest cities I’ve ever been. I lived in Washington, Oregon, Virginia, North Carolina, Colorado. Traveled all over. Great institutions of higher learning. Rich history and architecture. Museums, art galleries. Green building. PROUD WORKING PEOPLE. It’s a shame that some people are to ignorant to appreciate the important things in life.

Makk2 | 1/15/2009, 12:35 pm EST

I can see what happened here– no one kissed her butt (or even recognized her) while she was walking around town, so she decided Pittsburg’s “backwards.” I can’t see anyone in Pittsburgh caring if a British actress happened to be filming there for a few weeks, or treating her like a star, which is probably what she is used to and expected.

I used to live in Pittsburgh, it’s a good, unpretentious hard-working city with great libraries, art museums and sports teams.

hmm…you know it’s funny that people have probably been arguing back and forth over Pittsburgh’s quality for years now. Pittsburgh’s just gonna be Pittsburgh, just like NY is just gonna be NY. I’m from Pittsburgh (Carnegie, live in SC now), and I have a fuzzy feeling in my stomach, because I know, whether or not it’s a shithole, it’s always gonna be there. I’ll always be able to visit it and see my friends and do all the shit I like to do when I’m in town. So diss the place if you want, it’s not goin’ the fuck anywhere. Honestly, I appreciate that fact over the city itself. It’s like somebody said earlier, it’s a unique city, kind of like a cult city. I just want Pittsburgh to be known as a humble city with un-pretentious people. Because that’s really what it is. And trust me, I can’t stand when people over-defend the city as much as I hate when people dump on us. Just take us for what we are. Pittsburgh. A 50/50, average joe, American city.

the dumbest and most annoying sports fans in the world. they wear player jerseys like that means it gives them some personel street cred with players who could care less about them. then most of them are critical of a qb who has won two super bowls and is clearly one of the top 3 in the nfl.
the dumbass yinzers also talk like they gargle with rocks and sh*t.
and finally,they are huge supporters of jimmy friggen buffet!

Hotchickfrmdaburgh | 3/29/2009, 10:07 pm EST

I’m a Pittsburgher so I understand why the people of Pittsburgh are bad about her comment. By the way what movies she played in? I never heard of her before this. Pittsburgh is a very boring city if people did there research they would have known that this city is has the third highest population of old people beside Florida being #1 and AZ. being #2, so now you see why there’s no excitement here. I love Pittsburgh for many reasons: not a lot of crime, good schools (universities), affordable housing, good transportation, world renowned medical centers & hospitals and the Steelers…lol…Who really care what a no name actress thinks anyway! Oh yeah and all Pittsburghers don’t sound like “rednecks” or are uneducated. I’m working on a Master’s degree and I wear designer clothing and handbags too, so there are some hot up to date people in the burgh!

The Voice of Reason | 4/8/2009, 1:20 pm EST

It seems odd to pass such harsh judgment on a city which one all but admits to knowing nothing about. How can she possibly give an informed opinion if she’s remained confined to her hotel room? The insult, thus, is uninformed and therefore irrelevant.

Let’s face it: she doesn’t happen to like the city, while others do. It’s a perfectly wonderful city and is among my favorite places to visit. That’s my opinion. Just as one can discount her opinion, one can also disregard mine.

I suggest that you stop by the city some time and form your own opinion. You’d be surprised to know how much is constantly going on in Pittsburgh. One just needs to know where to look.

I advise you to check the local City Paper.

Serge, NY | 4/9/2009, 10:01 am EST

I have lived in Pittsburgh and it is a very rainly, cloudy, depressing, boring & unglamorous place. You can’t blame someone for speaking the truth. Pittsburgh natives are very ignorant and biased when it comes to their dreadful city. It’s a 3rd rate city in the middle of nowhere. Western PA people need a dose of reality check.

DJ | 4/9/2009, 5:57 pm EST

You know what I love? Idiots that go around trashing the place they live in. If you don’t like where you live, then leave! My husband is from the ‘Burgh. He thinks it’s the best place in the world. I can understand his love. I’ve never been there, but I understand the idea of the town. It’s very much like where I live. AND, I’m a huge Steelers fans. That previous comment about them was clearly from some lame-o NE fan that can’t stand they can’t beat us without cheating…but, I digress.

Stop trashing places you’ve never been or trashing the place that is giving you a place to live. Respect where you are. If you live in Texas, don’t shit on it and go around calling Texans hicks and saying how ugly it is here. Leave! You get to have a job and a home here. No one likes you trashing their town just as much as all of you probably hate to hear immigrants trashing America. You tell them to “get out”. Well, those that are from the place you’re staying in will tell you the same thing.

Sienna – you’re just an uppity, wanna’ be actress that needs to get a dose of humility and be humbled. You don’t see me going to London and then going on and on about what a shithole it is. You’re no better than anyone else in the world, just b/c you used to be married to someone famous.

Historical City | 4/17/2009, 10:36 am EST

I think everybody has to realize that Pittsburgh (the people of Pittsburgh) spent well over 100 years building the infrastructure of our Country… Got it’s face dirty more than any city in the world and probably was a huge reason why our military was able to save Europe from speaking German throughout. Arguably the most important city in the United States of America in the 20th Century. That is a Fact. Yeah.. we’re not New York… Pittsburgh just built it.

AMEN! | 4/29/2009, 12:17 pm EST

I have been referring to Pittsburgh as Shittsburgh for quite some time. I assumed I was clever and made it up, but Sienna’s sexy ass must have snuck into my subconcious. The city sucks. It’s inhabitants suck. That’s why everywhere you go, there’s someone from Pittsburgh, because they couldn’t take it any more. I really loved the moronic post that Pittsburgh is the most important city in the 20th Century. Dude, if you dumb shmucks didn’t produce steel, someone else would have. And plenty of time has elapsed for you to come up with a better contribution than ketchup. For god’s sake, we should put you poor bastards out of your misery. Why don’t you get together with Cleveland and go bowling? Fuck your football team, however many rivers of stench, Caps are gonna oust you shining bitches in 5 games. Sidney Crosby is a gigantic vagina on ice skates.

I'mJustSaying... | 4/29/2009, 12:37 pm EST

My grandfather grew up in Pittsburgh. WWII broke out. He was faced with getting shot at by Nazi’s or staying in Pittsburgh. He chose the Nazi’s, helped win the war, moved to DC, and never looked back. I’m just saying…

Caps in 6. It’s more fun celebrating on the other teams home ice so you can laugh at their crying fans.

DBR96A | 5/2/2009, 2:24 am EST

I’mJustSaying, did you ever consider that maybe your grandfather went to war because he loved the United States? Did you also consider that even if he disliked Pittsburgh, he left sometime between 1940 and 1945? It’s 2009. I’m sure the city has changed since the 1940s. I’m also sure it’s changed since 1983, when ‘Flashdance’ and ‘All The Right Moves’ were filmed. Hell, I’m sure Pittsburgh has changed since 2000! Actually, I know it has — I’ve witnessed it myself. Penguins in four.

Steel City | 5/2/2009, 9:22 pm EST

I don’t know why that one guy is so proud that Pittsburgh made steel. America just need a shithole region to build steel where they wouldn’t care about pollution repercussion. As a result, today pittsburgh is one of the worst cities in the country when it comes to air quality, and its residents who breath that shit in are retarded. That’s why pittsburghers only brag about the steelers because that’s the only good thing to come out of that city. Having the steelers is nice, but for having such a great team you have to live in the city known as “shitsburgh.”

DBR96A | 5/4/2009, 11:07 am EST

Now that I think about it, it’s gonna be very hard for the Penguins to win in 4 games, seeing how we just lost one. Damn, I probably should have spoken as quickly as I did. I was right about Pittsburgh, though, since 2000, the city has become much shittier than I originally thought. In fact, all the jackals that pass through don’t even UNF the place anymore. They can’t distinguish jackal territory from non-jackal territory. Sidney Crosby is getting put asleep tonight. Caps in six, too much fire power for Fleury. Also, the whole team was up late last night, reclining on a bed of dicks.

AMEN! | 5/4/2009, 2:59 pm EST

So we’ve established what Pittsburgh has to offer the rest of America/the world. Steelers football, ketchup, steel, Flashdance and All the Right Moves. You guys should be proud. Proud people are the ones that have the hardest time accepting defeat. Crosby is awfully well groomed for a hockey player, I’m just saying. Respect thy gangsta’!

I'm Just Saying | 5/5/2009, 9:21 am EST

Crying about hats being thrown on the ice after a hat trick, which Crosby did last night, is REALLY lame… If anyone is getting swept it’s the guys in yellow and black that somehow make those colors look feminine, I’m just saying…

Having all the fans wear white for a ‘white out’ when the team will be wearing black and the OPPONENT will be wearing white.

lol, I saw her on Conan tonight and thought, “Isn’t that the bitch who insulted my home a couple years ago?”. I really don’t care, but the media wouldn’t stop talking about it for a week and it annoyed me so much that it stuck in my head. And people need to shut up about it being because there’s nothing better to do here because media is like that everywhere. It’s certainly better than the daily news being filled by nothing but shootings. There is plenty to do here if you’re a regular person. She gloats about New York, but I wonder if she has ever actually come out of her multi-million dollar penthouse there and got to know the other 95% of the population that are hard working people. Plus when she was here, she was working and going out in the South Side most of the time, which anyone from here knows is the most youthful, free-spirited, liberal, and outspoken part of the city. Nobody there is gonna give a shit who she is (even is they had somehow heard of her before this, haha). Get an attitude about it and they’ll just hate you even more. She was mad that she didn’t get preferential treatment when she went to the bars and clubs down there and that’s why she hates Pittsburgh. She should have gone up a few streets. She could have bought some good weed to ease the stress of having to take out her ID to get in the bars and wait for the people there first to get their drinks. I’m sorry that equality offends you so much, bitch.

Pittsburgh – it sucks for young folks, for jobs, for night life, for activities, for racism, for something stuckup their asses and for 1978 mentality at work place.
Pittsburgh – its good to raise family, good schools districts, low cost of living, low health insurance, low auto insurance and low mortgage.
I lived in Manhattan, New Haven and Jersey City. Thought I should give my honest opinion of what I observed over months I am here.
