The 28-year-old British born actress is best known for her role in films like "Alfie", "Factory Girl" and "Layer Cake".
Miller is also well-known for her engagement to British actor Jude Law on Christmas day 2004. However, soon after the engagement rumours began to appear that Law was cheating on Miller and the couple split a few months later.
Today, Miller has been very involved in the relief and reconstruction effort in earthquake ravaged Haiti. She traveled to the country with the International Medical Corps and has been doing her part to help.

Hello Sienna! How's it going? I was just wondering, after your run on broadway, what do you prefer acting in, theatre or film?
Hello Sienna, I think you're a great actress!! After your acclaimed work as Edie Sedgwick in Factory Girl and after your role as Louise Ferrier in the upcoming Hippie Hippie Shake, I want to know what famous character in musics, arts, etc. would you like to play in a biopic if you had the chance to choose one.

If you could time travel, what historical period or event would you most like to visit? Speaking of the past, any chance you'll start wearing your gorgeous David Yurman black onyx ring? If not i'll be happy to take it off your hands...literally.
How has your involvement with the International Medical Corps (IMC) affected your life personally and career wise?
Have you got any more films in the works? or are you enjoying your break from it all.
Sienna, what's your favorite memory?
Hi Sienna,
of all the characters you played, on film and in theatre, which one was most demanding, and which one is your favorite (if you have one)?
what is your favorite place in the world? where haven't you been yet and would like to go to?
what kind of music do you like, which bands and singers and Djs?
what and whom are you most devoted to?
and finally....would you sign my iPod? 😉
i think you are a great actress, and I have great appreciation for your humanitarian work. best of luck to you.

Hi Sienna I am a big fan from canada. I think you are highly underrated as an actress and I think your work in films such as Factory, Interview and Edge of Love is very overlooked. What would be your ideal role for a film? Have you considered doing comedy? or another period piece? I would love for you to land a part in an academy award caliber movie. You certainly deserve it!
why don't you disappear?
You go girl!!! You're one of the great beauties of the 21st century and you're very intelligent. Good luck in your marriage. I hope you have all the children you desire. I like the clothes you are designing with your sister. I think you were great in Interview, Factory Girl and Camille. Thanks for visiting the Congo and writing about it. Keep up the humanitarian work – the world needs your help. Are there any new movie offers? Are you happy with the movies you've been offered in the past, or are you hoping for better? Always remember that you're a gem and that, spiritually, you are perfect just as you are. Never let the opinions of shallow, jealous people influence your opinion of yourself. Keep honing your craft – you'll get better when you are offered great screenplays.
Hi, from Sydney, Australia!
Since someone has already asked what I wanted to ask about your involvement with IMC, I wanted to know how your parents came up with your name.
I read somewhere that your full name is Sienna Diana Rose Miller. As someone who hasn't got any middle names, I think that's really nifty! (I also read that Savannah's middle names are Louise and Elizabeth.) How did your parents come up with all these names?

Who the he'll is this chick?
Hello!
Big fan here, I run a Sienna fan community on Livejournal called BreatheSienna. What is your favorite band and film, Sienna?

I think it's ridiculous the way you claim to care so much about Haiti, and then run off for an expensive three-week vacation right after your visit to that "horror show". How about using that time and money to actually help? Hundreds of people have spent their own money and their own vacation time to go down and volunteer, and you make a mockery of them. You are standing on the survivors' backs to make yourself look bigger after the terrible PR you've received in the last two year. You should be ashamed.
Hi Sienna
Your hair always looks AMAZING. Its the best celeb hair out there. I also have long blonde hair and its nothing like that!! Tips please! How can i get that perfect boho, daytime hair look?
Thanks.
PS. So happy youre back with Jude!!! Please have babies!!!
How do you justify your blatent disregard for others in the cruel and indifferent way you dumped your boyfriend to begin an affair with a married man, a father of four, while his wife sat and watched in horror? How can you then turn around and blame critics for their "lack of sisterhood"? Do you take responsibility for anything? Are any of your actions ever your fault?
PS Please DO NOT have any children with Mr. Law until he accepts responsibility for the one he abandoned in Florida. The two of you could use a few lessons on treating others with some compassion.
Probably not the right place or politically correct, but apparently novel. 13 nations offered to assist with the Gulf oil disaster.
The White House not only was too arrogant to accept help, but too RUDE to even thank them.
The media chose to ignore their generous and needed offer.
Inexcusable. SOMEONE SHOULD THANK THEM AND WE SHOULD TAKE ANY HELP WE CAN GET RATHER THAN JUST POINT FINGERS.
Why on earth, with your beauty and talent, did you go back with that loser Jude Law? Please say it isn't so!
hi sienna, what is your favorite band ?
Marry me?

I really admire the work that you're doing with haiti. But i'm worried that like many issues, it will start to go off the radar of the international community.

I'd like to ask Ms. Miller, what is the one thing that you that this experience taught you? Did it make you re-evaluate something about yourself? If so, what?
Thanks!
