Sienna Miller: "I Hate Being a Ginger!"

This shocking quote comes from the mouth of pretty little Sienna Miller. She had to dye her hair strawberry blonde to film a Dylan Thomas biopic. (How she suffers for her art!)

I only learned this June that the UK has a deep-seated hatred (fear?) of "gingers". (See my previous redhead posts.) Weird, I go through life and never noticing this prejudice and then, there it is, smacking you in the face.

Its not like you're a natural blonde, Sienna. (See roots in photo.) "Sienna" itself is a rather unattractive brown clay pigment.

The more ubiquitous "Burnt Sienna" (always my favorite crayon, ranked number 44 by Crayola) is a ginger color. Ironic, hey, Sienna? "Burnt"?

Oh, Sienna, you have a little carrot in your teeth there, honey.
