Sienna Miller's crude name

Sienna Miller's crude nameSienna Miller has been nicknamed "C***-ya" by the director of her latest movie.

The stunning actress says Steve Buscemi came up with the offensive name when he first met her.

Sienna, who plays soap opera star Katya in 'Interview', said: "Steve is just so rude. I think it's amazing that he calls me 'C***-ya'. In America it's a very rude word. But in England it's used far too flippantly."

Sienna is not the first celebrity to be called the foul-mouthed name.

When Julia Roberts and Natalie Portman were filming 2004 movie 'Closer', they gave each other necklaces bearing the four-letter expletive.

Director Mike Nichols revealed: "On the first day of shooting, after a couple of weeks of rehearsing, Natalie bought Julia a little silver necklace with a word spelled out in the middle. The word was 'C***'.

"Julia was enchanted and said it was the sweetest present she'd ever had.

"Then, on the last day of shooting, she gave Natalie a silver necklace that spelled out 'Li'l C***'. That's how free they are and what good friends they were."

Meanwhile, Sienna hit her head on a kitchen counter while filming love scenes for 'Interview'.

The 25-year-old admits she got carried away while doing the scenes with Buscemi - who starred in the movie as well as directing it.

She said: "We were making out and I whacked my head really hard on the kitchen counter."

Britney Spears' new single named

Britney SpearsBritney Spears' new single will be called Get Back.

The singer is said to preparing to release her first song since 2005 in the next few weeks and has a "surprising" new sound.

A source said: "It's a very new sound for her. I think people will be surprised."

Britney has been working with music producer Sean Garrett - who has previously collaborated with Beyonc? Knowles, Jennifer Lopez and Mary J. Blige but it is yet known if he has produced her comeback single.

It had previously been reported Britney was set to release a single from her new album last Saturday (07.07.07).

The 25-year-old has already reportedly treated some fans to a sneak preview of her latest record.

Dancers were asked to perform to a track from Britney's new album during tryouts to find two new male backing dancers last month.

One dancer said: "It was dope. It reminded me of that one song you hear at 1.50am, when they call last call at a club, and it's the hottest, nastiest song you've ever heard in your life and you've just got to put your drink down and dance to it. You've got no choice. Your body is insisting on it."

Britney, who had hoped to have her album out by the end of this year, was recently left frustrated to discover the release date has now been pushed back to 2008.

Eva weds twice in 24 hours

Eva LongoriaDesperate Housewives star Eva Longoria and basketball player Tony Parker have married for a second time, exchanging vows in a Paris church 24 hours after tying the knot at a civil ceremony.

Hundred of fans hoping for a glimpse of the stars were disappointed as guards kept them well away from the 12th century church, across the road from the Louvre museum.

No details emerged about the half-hour service and the only sign it was over came when red buses began shuttling friends and family to a 17th century chateau outside the French capital where a lavish reception was planned.

Among those invited were Longoria's Housewives co-stars Teri Hatcher and Felicity Huffman, Miami Vice star Jamie Foxx, singer Lionel Richie and actors Michael Douglas and Catherine Zeta Jones.

Parker's NBA team mates from the San Antonio Spurs were also expected at attend, with other top sports figures such as French footballer Thierry Henry.

Under French law, couples must have a separate civil marriage if they wed in a church.

Parker, 25, who was born in Belgium and grew up in France, tied the knot with Texas-born Longoria, 32, at a relatively low-key ceremony in a Paris town hall on Friday.

The main event was clearly Saturday's, with the couple joining thousands of others around the world in getting married on 07/07/07 – a date that many believed to be propitious.

Paparazzi have been stalking the couple and their entourage for the past week, pursuing them as they partied in Disneyland Paris and wined and dined on a river boat on the Seine.

The reception was being held in one of France's most spectacular houses – the Chateau de Vaux le Vicomte – which cost an estimated 200,000 euros to hire.

It has previously hosted the wedding of Indian tycoon Lakshmi Mittal's daughter, said to be the most expensive of all time at a reported $US55 million.

"It will certainly be a beautiful marriage because a lot of celebrities will be coming," said Jean-Charles de Vogue, whose family owns the chateau.

Chateau staff refused to give details, but newspapers said the gardens would be lit by 2000 candles and a spectacular firework display was planned.
