So stories are surfacing that Wentworth Miller is an “out of control” diva on set. It’s reported he acts “self important” and like a “spoiled princess”. The extras are forbidden to talk with him and he’s been known to flip off crew members. Nice. Here’s the quote from the National Enquirer (via Celebitchy):
“Wentworth’s out of control with his self-important attitude,†an eyewitness on the set told The Enquirer. “The guy’s got the production assistants waiting for him with his flip-flops and beverages between scenes. They’re trained to respond to his every whim.â€
The British-born Wentworth, 35, who’s guest-starred on dozens of shows including “Buffy the Vampire Slayer†and “ER,†was not well-known until he landed one of the starring roles on the Fox action series.
Gearing up for its third season, the show features Wentworth as hero Michael Scofield, who enters prison to help his false accused brother Lincoln, played by Dominic Purcell, to break out.
But Wentworth’s bravado ends when the cameras shut off, says the set insider.
In fact, he’s “downright prissy!â€
While co-star Dominic chats up extras and crewmembers, Wentworth has given orders for everyone to leave him alone.
“He even told the director: ‘I don’t want the extras talking to me,’†said the insider.
According to the insider, Wentworth also “throws fits†and whines “in a high-pitched voice†when he’s not getting his way.
“He has even flipped off the crew during his fits,†said the insider.
We’re taking these stories with a grain of salt. Every thing we read about Wentworth Miller says he’s a generally nice guy. I know someone who ran into him at a coffee shop and he was very gracious, signed autographs and chit chatted with the counter staff. I don’t see the high pitched voice thing either. Sounds like someone is disgruntled.
That`s the stupid story I`ve ever read.I don`t think that he`s a prissy diva.
Is this article some kind of joke?
