In The Tabloids And On The Red Carpet, Sienna Miller Flashes A Rolex Day-Date To Her Fans

Sienna MillerAlthough she has been in the press of late because of her romantic involvements, you have to love Sienna Miller’s style and her Rolex Oyster Day-Date luxury watch. As a prominent actor, fashonista and owner of the brand Twenty8Twelve, Sienna Miller is all over the fashion rags and the Internet fan sites. Lately, with her public affair with married actor Balthazar Getty and some revealing paparazzi photos, Sienna Miller has been all over the Tabloids as well. Back in the day, when she was with actor Jude Law and he was caught cheating with other young hotties, Sienna Miller was in the rags as a sympathetic figure. As Sienna Miller described, “Everything just happened in the wrong order. I did my first proper film [Alfie] where I met Jude and we got together, and then the whole celebrity thing happened before I had any films out. So there’s nothing to overshadow the celebrity side of things. But hopefully with all the work that I’ve done this year it’ll just take the focus off what I’m wearing or my relationship or whatever.” However, this time around, although she is not the cheater per say, Sienna Miler is the target and not the figure of sympathy. Nonetheless, for someone who practically invented the bohemian look, Sienna Miller manages to be constantly reinventing her style. Perhaps Sienna Miller wants a darker image to go along with her darker locks in her blockbuster bad guy role in one of the summer biggest films. Sienna Miller plays the role of the Baroness in the upcoming film adaptation of cartoon strip G.I. Joe. The Alfie star’s makeover seemed to have added to her dark side as she portrays the Baroness, a tough, leather-clad femme fatale in G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra. As per the plot, the Baroness’s beauty goes hand in hand with her ruthlessness, and the movie is slated for a big summer release in August. A new brown hairdo is not the only change of direction cinemagoers can expect from Sienna Miller this year. The screen lovely is in the frame to play an Oxford University don who is blinded during the Second World War.
Screenwriter Shamim Sarif, said an “English rose type” was needed for Dreaming Spires, which follows the love story between the female professor and an American student. It makes perfect sense that the producers would have Sienna Miller wear her gold Rolex Day-Date when she plays this role. A Rolex Day-Date fits right in with the character of a female Oxford Professor who must make sure that she makes it to class on time. And nothing gets to your appointments with greater precision and reliability than a Rolex Luxury watch.

Sierra Miller Sienna Miller always seems to be creating tabloid fodder, with either her fashion choices or her off –screen romances. In 2005, Sienna shocked the press and her fans with a new, short hair cut when she chopped her locks off to play Edie Sedgwick in Factory Girl. Starting in December, Sienna joined Hayden Christensen, Guy Pearce and the rest of the cast in Shreveport, Los Angeles to film the biopic. Tabloid gossip focused on the ‘relationship’ between Sienna and Hayden. They were photographed on and off set numerous times together, including at the February 2006 wrap party of the film in which the young co-stars were caught kissing. In 2006, Sienna Miller shot the black romantic comedy Camille. During the shoot, the tabloids flared up with stories of Sienna’s romantic relationship with her co-star James Franco, which she took in her stride and denied. In recent weeks, Sienna Miller has been back in the tabloid light on account of her relationship with a married man: actor Balthazar Getty. Sienna Miller has been caught kissing Balthazar Getty while vacationing together on the glamorous Amalfi Coast in Italy. While on a boat together, the 25-year-old G.I. Joe actress was seen topless and the 33-year-old Brothers & Sisters actor was seen shirtless. The pair were seen swapping spit and kept their arms wrapped around each other all day. A source close to Ms. Miller reveals, “Sienna is totally besotted with Balthazar. Their relationship has gone from strength to strength over the past month and Sienna finds him irresistible. Balthazar arranged for the trip to one of the most beautiful and exclusive parts of the Med.” The lovebirds spent hours snuggling up to one another in their hotel bedroom, enjoying the balcony view every once in awhile. “Sienna was literally beaming. She seemed completely at ease, very relaxed and very happy,” an onlooker said. “Balthazar had his arm around her most of the time, and they didn’t leave each other alone throughout the trip.” Balthazar has been married to Rosetta Millington for eight years and they have four children together: Cassius, 8, Grace, 7, Violet, 4, and June, 9 months. Of course, the pictures of the two stars appeared all over the Internet and in all of the tabloids. We can only hope Sienna Miller chooses to wear her Rolex Day-Date whenever she is out with Balthazar Getty, adding a little class to her prominent affair with a married man.

Cristiano Ronaldo, The Best Soccer Player In The World Today, Sports A Rolex Daytona

Cristiano RonaldoWhen the Federation Internationale de Football Association (FIFA) picked the best soccer player in the world in 2008, the winner Cristiano Ronaldo was sporting his stainless steel Rolex Cosmograph Daytona. Mind you, Cristiano Ronaldo has also been voted the sexiest football player in the world, and his legions of female fans are passionate about his play and a bit more than just his play. Cristiano Ronaldo dos Santos Aveiros was born on February 5, 1985 in Madeira, Portugal. The island of Madeira was also the place where Cristiano Ronaldo first learned to master his skills as a soccer player. He spent his early years playing for his local team, Nacionial, and by the time he turned 12 years old, he already made his name for himself as one of Madeira’s top soccer player. In the summer of 2003, when his Portuguese team played against Manchester United and defeated them, Cristiano caught the attention of Manchester United manager, Sir Alex Ferguson. 
Ronaldo became Manchester United’s first-ever Portuguese player. Initially, when they tried to give him the legendary number 7, Cristiano Ronaldo requested the number 28 as his jersey number because he did not feel that he could live up to the pressure of previous players such as George Best and David Beckham who had worn that jersey. However, Cristiano Ronaldo later embraced the number 7 jersey, stating: “The No 7 shirt is an honor and a responsibility. I hope it brings me a lot of luck. There is no harm in dreaming of becoming the world’s best player. It is all about trying to be the best. I will keep working hard to achieve it but it is within my capabilities.”

Cristiano RonaldoOn the 29 October 2005 Ronaldo scored Manchester United’s 1000th Premiership goal, in a 4–1 loss at the hands of Middlesbrough. He was named FIFPro Special Young Player of the Year 2005, the only award to be voted for by fans. Usually, the name of Ronaldo, at least in soccer, was firmly tied to the Brazilian striker, as he was immensely renowned after winning almost anything a footballer could dream of winning. However, entering a poorer period of his career at Real Madrid, Ronaldo slowly began to succumb and young Cristiano Ronaldo was there to grab the name for his own. Nowadays, most people will think of the young Portuguese rather than the ex-”Il Phenomeno” when hearing the name Ronaldo. Sporting a Rolex Daytona, Cristiano Ronaldo has become the new phenomenon. By the way, his mother named him after former U.S. President Ronald Reagan, so there is no connection between him and the Brazilian star. Cristiano Ronaldo has now become both the new Ronaldo and the Captain of Manchester United. When playing a league game, Cristiano Ronaldo “makes the most” of challenges presented by his opponents. As Manchester City Captain Richard Dunne describes: “Ronaldo is the best player in the world, but he plays the game to his advantage. At times, he can be running so fast that any nick could send him tumbling. He makes the most of the situation, I suppose. Some referees give free-kicks and some don’t, but whether he’s diving or not diving, he’s impossible to mark when he’s on form. Ronaldo has had a couple of occasions [red cards] against us in the past, though, but maybe that’s down to the intensity of the derby.”

Cristiano RonaldoIn 2008, Cristiano Ronaldo won the PFA Player of the Year Award for the second time running while also being named the best soccer player in the world by the Federation Internationale de Football Association (FIFA). During his free time, Cristiano Ronaldo enjoys cooking, and he mentioned in an interview that he usually cooks before he leaves for practice. Among Cristiano Ronaldo’s biggest pet peeves are smoking, people who don’t make an effort and dishonesty. When the tsunami hit South East Asia, Cristiano Ronaldo flew to Indonesia to help those in need, and auctioned off his personal memorabilia to help raise funds for charity. Cristiano Ronaldo hopes to get involved in more charity projects in the future because he believes his star status will help him reach out to others for help. In the past, Cristiano Ronaldo has dated the model Jordana Jardel, sister of Brazilian footballer Mario Jardel, model Lauren Frain, and Christina Carlos. As a sex symbol like David Beckham, he is loved by the ladies for his striking good looks and his stylish Rolex Daytona. Without questions, when soccer fans think of the name Ronaldo today, they picture the handsome visage of Manchester United star Cristiano Ronaldo sporting a Rolex Cosmograph Daytona.
