Sienna Miller shares thoughts on 'terrifying' tabloid coverage

At a press conference in London on Thursday, actress Sienna Miller disclosed why she felt "paranoid" and "scared" after tabloid reporters relentlessly intruded in her personal life and ultimately hacked her cell phone for access to more personal information.

"For a number of years I was relentlessly pursued by 10 to 15 men, almost daily," Miller revealed. "Spat at, verbally abused."

The stem of this "video game-like" lifestyle that left the 29-year-old actress "very violated and very paranoid and anxious," began when the actress began dating Jude Law.

In addition to leaving the starlet paranoid, the tabloid's pursuit did even more damage on her personal life. In light of the media leaks and scrutinizing coverage, Miller accused close friends and family of leaking stories and personal information.

In 2010, however, evidence found in Miller's civil case against now-closed tabloid News of the World, sparked the tabloid's downfall. Back in April, the tabloid admitted its liability in the hacking of the actress' cell phone and paid her 100,000 pounds in compensation.

"So far it has been very unsatisfactory what I have received," Miller stated.

The actress' civil case generated an investigation in which numerous News of the World reporters and editors have since been arrested on charges of illegal eavesdropping.

Miller's effort to take on News of the World also gave the tabloid's parent company, News Corp., other lawsuits involving hacking allegations. News Corp. is run by powerhouse Rupert Murdoch.

Miller shared her story at a United Kingdom media ethics inquiry, led by Brian Leveson. Leveson hopes to issue his reports next year in an effort to revolutionize media regulations in the United Kingdom.
