Rhys talks Sienna
Sienna Miller‘s burgeoning relationship with Rhys Ifans is the talk of London, but he dismisses thoughts of marriage in a new interview. “Yeah, and they found Elvis on the moon,” he told the Observer magazine when asked if there are wedding bells in their future. “I came here to talk about work. My personal life is invented for me, so why bother?” Over the weekend, Miller, 25, and Ifans – a 39-year-old who’s best known stateside for his role as Hugh Grant’s roommate in Notting Hill – were spotted shopping arm-in-arm for a Christmas tree. Despite the scrutiny – and rumors that his friend Kate Moss disapproves – Ifans has no complaints. “I’m not going to sit here and moan about my life,” he said, “because mostly it’s great.”
Celebs donate auction items for Oxfam
Oxfam is hosting a celebrity and public auction to help raise funds for people suffering in Chad and the Darfur region of Sudan. Sienna Miller has donated a pair of shoes, Elton John has parted with a tailor-made Versace suit, and Helen Mirren has donated her script from her Oscar-winning performance in The Queen. “Try to imagine living in a tiny shelter made out of straw, dry branches and plastic sheeting with the sun baking down on you at 45 degrees. For most of us that’s beyond imagination,” John said of his support of the event. “I’m delighted to donate this suit that was custom-made by Donatella Versace for me to wear to the white tie and tiara ball in 2000 and hope it raises lots of cash for the people of Darfur who have already suffered so much.

Life imitating art for Sienna
Life may have imitated art a little too closely in Sienna Miller‘s preparation for the role Warhol muse Edie Sedgwick in the much-hyped film Factory Girl. An article in a British paper reported, “Her friends say…her life was in danger of spiraling out of control. They say she adopted Edie’s mannerisms on and off the set, dieted ruthlessly to attain her painfully thin appearance while still drinking freely, and flirted with Sedgwick’s dissolute lifestyle, socializing with Warhol proteges who are known drug-takers.” The film’s producer may have denied the claims, saying, “It’s ridiculous. There’s no way she could have shot this in 27 days if she had been like that. She was being Edie, but being Edie in a responsible way,” but Miller herself told Esquire mag, “For maybe two months after we wrapped, I was still running around and acting a little bit crazy, like I was still in character… It’s really quite fun being Edie Sedgwick.”
