Celebrity Quote: “I’ve never been a wild sort of person. I mean, I do like going out sometimes but I’m also quite a home girl.” Actress Sienna Miller insists she isn’t a party animal.
She strips naked for some of the most explicit sex scenes ever seen in a mainstream movie - and is terrified of what her dad is going to think.
The shocking footage is so graphic Sienna admits she had to cover her eyes as she watched it on screen.
She said: “We wanted to make it realistic and I watched it thinking ‘Oh my God, my Dad’s going to see it!’ And that was going through my head.
But it was relevant to the story in that it’s a movie about the 60s, and sex and drugs and rock and roll were a big part of that. We didn’t want to hold back because it is a real film and it is a gritty film and there was a lot of shocking things and it wouldn’t fit in the film if we had an unrealistic sex scene. It was always a bit uncomfortable but I think it was relevant to the story.”
She added: “I think there were always concerns because it’s a vulnerable position to be in but, because Edie really had a problem letting men in, it was such a significant moment for her.
“I also believe that there’s nothing worse than seeing a sex scene where someone’s got a T-shirt on because its unrealistic so I think that if you’re going to do it, do it.”

“FACTORY Girl” - the hotly anticipated movie about 1960s “It Girl” Edie Sedgwick and the Andy Warhol scene - is having such a hard time getting off the assembly line, it won’t even be released in New York until sometime next year.
The Weinstein Company had invited New York critics to a screening of the unfinished movie this week, but then disinvited them when the producers learned they wouldn’t be eligible for awards from the New York Film Critics Circle.
Only pictures released in New York are eligible for the local honors, and Weinstein is rushing to open “Factory Girl” in Los Angeles before the end of the year to qualify for the ultimate goal - the Academy Awards.
“I feel somewhere between angered and dis-invested,” movie industry blogger Jeffrey Wells said. “I’ve been feeling something genuine for this film for the last four months, but the handling of it over the last 24 to 36 hours has been erratic and close to embarrassing.”
The movie, which stars Sienna Miller as the drug-doomed Edie and Guy Pearce as the platinum-wigged Warhol, has been vexed by so many problems and delays that director George Hickenlooper has been pushed aside, sources say.
Page Six previously reported that the crew was forced to reshoot some of the Pittsburgh scenes (or as Miller fondly called it, “S - - - sburgh”) in New York.
One New Yorker who was asked to appear in the film said he was shocked it’s already being screened because shooting hasn’t even wrapped: “They’ve got me on hold for more scenes next week.”
Scott Pellegrino, who promotes events through Popdebate.com, attended a “Factory Girl” screening on Thursday and said it was “well-received.” Another viewer said Miller’s performance is “brilliant.” Pellegrino’s one complaint was that “uber-WASP” Hayden Christensen was cast instead of a Jewish actor as the Bob Dylan-based character.
Weinstein Company rep Sarah Rothman told us New Yorkers will finally get to see the movie in February when it opens nationwide - unless it gets delayed.
What had begun as the most exciting year in Sienna Miller’s career devolved into one of her most traumatic when, in July 2005, Jude Law publicly admitted to cheating on Sienna with his children’s nanny. The affair sparked a tabloid frenzy that only intensified a few months later, when the actress decided to take Jude back.
“There were times when I felt like it was all just too much to deal with,” she recalls, declining to share the details. (Sienna admits that she’s tried therapy, but after angrily calling the therapist a “cow” in response to a particularly difficult question in the first session, she was told she was still in trauma and not ready for analysis. She has not been back since.) The media, Sienna adds, “is just a bigger animal than I will ever be. It just becomes this soap opera. And I guess I had a pretty good few episodes.”
“They’re going to kill me for having invited you up here,” says the actress, lighting a cigarette and resting her feet on my chair. “But I’d rather have someone judge me honestly than try to create some sort of image.”
