Miller Insults Entire City

Actress Sienna Miller has picked a fight with the wrong city and has been condemned by the loyal residents of Pittsburgh following remarks she made to Rolling Stone magazine. While filming the adaptation of Michael Chabon`s novel "The Mysteries of Pittsburgh," she was quoted calling the city a name that sounds like Pittsburgh, but contains an expletive.

Loyalty to a hometown is a mysterious virtue, and Pittsburgh residents have obviously taken Miller`s words to heart. The Mayor believes Pittsburgh is a great town and disagrees with her comments and has even invited her to take a tour of the town, which will prove that her remarks are all but based on true facts.

Since the interview was published, the proud residents of Pittsburgh have been looking for Miller`s apology and indeed, her publicist claims that since she did not have a chance to explore the city she had made these remarks. She had this to say: "What I have seen of it is beautiful. I came once before to visit The Andy Warhol Museum whilst researching a film and found both the city and its inhabitants warm and gracious."
