Keira and Sienna: we're nerds!
April 4th 2009 03:17
In a recent interview, Hollywood starlet and fashion icon Sienna Miller spilled the beans on the 'nerdy' pursuits she enjoys with close friend and fellow actress Keira Knightley. Apparently the two swap books, play cards and are both learning to play musical instruments - activities that are light years away from the glamorous, party-hard image portrayed by most young stars!
"We swap books," Sienna revealed. "I went to Keira's house for dinner and we talked about books and swapped some. We play cards and do newspaper crosswords together."
"She's learning the flute at the moment and I'm learning the piano. I mean we are really quite nerdy."
The pair became close friends during the filming of The Edge of Love, apparently bonding over their shared love of sedate pastimes, and their hatred of negative media attention: 24-year-old Keira has been repeatedly attacked for being "too skinny", while 27-year-old Sienna has come under fire for her choice of partner (most recently Balthazar Getty, a married man). The pair keep each other afloat by reminding one another not to Google themselves or pay close attention to what their critics are saying.
"If things happen in the media that are hard to deal with, or the awful temptation to Google yourself comes up... she'll phone me up and say, I'm thinking about doing it, and I'm like, I am too... don't do it, don't do it!" said Miller. "And we'll kind of talk each other out of it. It's hard sometimes to not want to know what people are saying behind your back and to ignore certain things that are being written."
