Possibly famous and recently infamous actress Sienna Miller found out this weekend that neither distinction could work as a functional form of ID.
Just before midnight Saturday night, bar employees said, Ms. Miller, 24, appeared at the entrance of Folino's Young's Tavern, on Carson Street, without identification. Some five minutes later -- after ducking into the bar, eluding a bouncer who refused to let her inside -- Ms. Miller, in town for the filming of "The Mysteries of Pittsburgh," was spotted inside and escorted back to the Carson Street sidewalk. There, tavern owner Penny Folino and bouncer Dan Kovacs said, a disgusted Ms. Miller proclaimed her identity to all who would listen.
"Sienna ripped off her hat and said, 'I am Sienna Miller. I am a famous actress!'" Ms. Folino said. "That's what she did. She was basically throwing a temper tantrum."
A spokeswoman from Ms. Miller's publicity office, who was in contact with the actress yesterday, denied the incident occurred. Film publicist Emma Cooper was aware of the Folinos' allegation, but said, "I heard it never took place." Shooting for the movie continued yesterday on the streets of Polish Hill, but Ms. Miller did not appear on the set and could not be reached for comment.

C'mon, she should know she's not getting in a bar in the 'Burgh without ID unless she played/plays for the Stillers, right?

WHO?
Another "superstar" I suppose, who will be gone in the next 5 minutes.
I guess they never watched "Keen Eddy". Come to think of it, a lot of people never saw it (though it was pretty good, in a weird sort of way). A police drama, sort of Columbo meets Monte Python.
