Jan 13 2009Russell Crowe's obesity gets Sienna Miller fired
Russell Crowe's stubborn refusal to diet has cost Sienna Miller the role of Maid Marian in Ridley Scott's Robin Hood remake Nottingham. The Daily Mail reports
Crowe, 44, has not shed the four stone he gained for his role in the recent Body Of Lies, where he played a former journalist who hunts down terrorists from his armchair.
Fearing his older, gutsier Robin would look 'laughable' alongside her petit Marian, Miller was canned from 'Nottingham', a £110million remake of the Robin Hood tale.
With producers scrambling to find a replacement that will make Russell look more virile, possible contenders include Rosie O'Donnell, Kirstie Alley and comedian Louie Anderson who allegedly wants the same salary as Crowe: Unlimited chicken wings.

OMG, #1, you're fucking hilarious.
Who and who? Wow that's just amazing. I mean, who would've ever thought to pretend to not know the names of well-known celebrities on a gossip site? Just fucking genius. The zenith of comedy right here.

Its gonna be the ugliest Robin Hood ever.

This is a female commenter's dream. I can imagine the comments now..."FINALLY! They'll have to cast a woman who's NORMAL and HEALTHY and doesn't look like a 13-YEAR-OLD BOY!" They'll be so disappointed when the movie premiere is on the Animal Channel.

That movie is going to flop big time.

THAT'S B.S.! so a fat girl gets canned for not being skinny and now a skinny girl gets canned so she doesn't make the fat guy look bad?!?!?!?! i'm gonna go kick a guy in his ball's just because.

The real story is that Crowe surprised them all when he was looking at some of Sienna Miller's tabloid topless photos and said "you know what, I'm not really in the mood for flapjacks."
13. Guy - January 13, 2009 3:37 PM
An old ugly Robin Hood, nah...
14. Sam - January 13, 2009 3:38 PM
Not quite the true story - they said her talent was too thin.
15. Alan - January 13, 2009 3:40 PM

Well as for money she can lead on her rich married boyfriend, since she is a homewrecker! Wouldn't want her reputation link on a new movie.

What a fuckin fat goblin - that hairy motherfucker knows he's on the downward slope and soon he'll just be tongue punching gay dirt star.
21. Sport - January 13, 2009 4:00 PM
Damn - she's pretty hot.
22. Stew - January 13, 2009 4:15 PM
What a bunch of morons on here. Russel Crowe on the down and out? Who the fuck is Sienna Miller lol? Why don't we just get Kim Kardashian because she has an ass from heaven and some big tits I'd like to suck on? Because Russel Crowe can act his ass off so naturally they are going to find someone who can act on a level above a softcore porn star. HORRIBLE casting and they obviously realized it.
23. Kaiser - January 13, 2009 4:50 PM
I wouldn't mind making a homemovie with this snobbish buttfucking piece of unimportance.
I mean the one with the long hair.
The one with the bag in her hand.
24. me - January 13, 2009 5:15 PM
Anyone posting after me sucks on Russel Crowe's shaggy penis

So, now it's just some fatbody in the movie? Russell Crowe is stupid.
28. kitty - January 13, 2009 6:19 PM
Why didn't they fire him
29. ManiacFive - January 13, 2009 6:36 PM
For fucks sake! Scott you northern bastard! Fire the fat stroppy bitch, hire Hugh Jackman, keep the totty working on the movie.
30. dew - January 13, 2009 6:52 PM
What moron decided this tantrum-throwing oinker would be a good choice for a role wearing tights, ewwww!
31. CaptainMorgan - January 13, 2009 7:42 PM
Maybe they fired her because she denied them entry into "sure-wood forest"???
32. CaptainMorgan - January 13, 2009 7:43 PM
Maybe she quit because Crowe kept calling the movie "nuts-in-ham"???
(joke about balls and penises for the noobs out there)
33. bruce - January 13, 2009 9:02 PM

Why not can the ugly Russell Crowe and leave Miller?? sexist pieces of shit.
36. judith - January 14, 2009 5:11 AM
Russel Crowe and Roseanne Barr in the leading roles of Robin Hood, now there's an interesting concept, and a mental picture I could really do without!
37. King Edward - January 14, 2009 5:14 AM
Crowe is a bit of a jackass, but he's not "fat" by any means right now.
Miller is the one with the eating disorder. She should be eating to gain weight for her role instead of looking like she's got the body of a 13yr old boy with breasts.
38. Chris - January 14, 2009 1:30 PM
Wait, wait, wait. I thought Russel Crowe was playing the sheriff, not Robin Hood. Of course the sheriff was supposed to have a thing for Marian. Wouldn't it make it more believable that she didn't want to have anything to do with an older chubby guy. Or could it be she's a shitty actress????
39. Lea - January 14, 2009 3:12 PM
he's too old to play robbin hood ! come on..
40. russel crowe is a faat asssss - January 14, 2009 3:54 PM
why didnt they get rid of his fat ass
41. russelcow - January 14, 2009 3:59 PM
they should call it
russel hood- the case of the missing tea cakes (and donuts, fries, jelly beans, lard in a bucket, soda pop, cake, pudding....oh shit i can go on forever). i cant gurantee a good moving going experience but i can guarantee the mystery involves his belly!

Good. She is a talentless, dime-a-dozen, has been. Truth be told, he probably did not want to act alongside her. Seeing that he is an award winning actor an she is, well... nobody, I cannot blame him.
44. russell's twat candy - January 14, 2009 5:45 PM
Amen. Now I can have Russell under me...
and probably crush me but he looks like he gives an awesome tongue job.
45. ripley - January 18, 2009 7:34 AM
Russell looks like the comic book guy from the Simpsons lol
46. Narcissist - January 26, 2009 7:31 AM
I hope Crowe doesn't try any stunts involving a chandelier. The castle will collapse into a black hole.
Sienna will be The Baroness next summer, so she'll be alright...although she doesn't seem hot enough to be The Baroness...
Fuck, I might not even watch this slop:
