speaking of which, from today's Page Six in the NY Post...


>'MATRIX'-MAKER 'STOLE' A WIFE
>
>THE estranged husband of the sexy dominatrix who accompanied
>reclusive "Matrix Reloaded" director Larry Wachowski to the movie's
>L.A. premiere says the filmmaker is a cross-dressing wife-stealer.
>
>Jake Miller, 40, says he's still married to Karin Winslow, 36, a
>professional dominatrix who walked down the red carpet with
>Wachowski, 37, alongside "Matrix" star Keanu Reeves.
>
>Miller claims the director and the dominatrix get down and dirty in
>kinky sessions where Wachowski dresses up in drag, and says that he
>personally witnessed their illicit antics.
>
>"I want people to know the truth," Miller told the London Mail on
>Sunday. "When Larry walked down the red carpet with my wife, he was
>probably wearing [something else] under his suit."
>
>Miller, who says he himself is a transsexual, claims Wachowski
>dumped his wife of 15 years, childhood sweetheart Thea, for the
>curvaceous Winslow. He claims the director is obsessed with Marilyn
>Monroe and likes to wear a blonde wig, pink dresses and stiletto
>heels prior to being punished by his mistress and acting as her
>slave.
>
>"He stole my wife from me and he crossed over the boundaries,"
>Miller, who ran an S&M parlor called The Dungeon in L.A. with
>Winslow, fumes.
>
>"Larry [is] living a lie. He has been cross-dressing for years and
>everybody knows it. But in Hollywood, money talks. And if you are
>the director of a hit like 'The Matrix,' you can get away with
>anything."
>
>Reps for both Wachowski and "Matrix" studio Warner Bros. had no
>comment. Miller confirmed his quotes to PAGE SIX.
>
>Miller says Winslow is an accomplished dominatrix with a large
>collection of whips, chains and sex toys. He says Winslow visited
>Warchowski on the set of "Matrix Reloaded" for weeks at a time, and
>notes that the picture contains many "sadomasochistic" elements.
>
>Wachowski, who co-directed the "Matrix" films with his brother Andy,
>is a former carpenter and comic book writer from Chicago. The
>media-shy duo, who stand to make an estimated $35 million from the
>latest installment, have a "no publicity" clause in their contract.
