If I didn’t already think that Stephen Sommers lacked any taste or talent, this bit<\/a> from SFGate re-affirmed it.<\/p>\n

Quote:<\/b><\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Actress Sienna Miller had to wear fake breasts for her role in forthcoming action movie "G.I. Joe," because her own cleavage was not big enough for director Stephen Sommers.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n

<\/p>\n

Yes.. you read that correctly. "fake breasts" "own cleavage was not big enough".<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n
Quote:<\/b><\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Miller admits she was left slightly stunned when Sommers told her that her small chest had to be given an extra boost so she would look more curvaceous on screen.<\/p>\n

She says, "(I wear a) tight black leather outfit. And much bigger boobs.<\/p>\n

"They gave me these things that looked like chicken fillets. The director said, ‘I’m gonna be honest, I like girls with big boobs,’ and I don’t have them so we made them bigger.<\/p>\n

"At least he’s honest. But I was mildly offended."<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n

<\/p>\n


\nMiller as The Baroness in G.I. Joe<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Chicken fillets? If Sommers likes women with big boobs, why didn’t he hire someone else for the part? Course this is the man who successfully destroyed some 200 years of monster stories in his wretched film Van Helsing<\/span><\/a>. Come to think of it he had a small chested star (Kate Beckinsale) in that one as well. Surprised he didn’t try to pad her out as well.<\/p>\n
