Keira Knightley recently told People magazine that she feels no pressure whatsoever to remain thin, despite rumors that may exist to the contrary.

Knightley said, "Hollywood is all about the way you look, and I don't think that's the healthy thing for anyone. But, if you're strong and comfortable with yourself, then you're going to be fine."
Granted, I realize that these actresses are under a lot of pressure to look skinny, but I'm sorry, it's nothing that a little tapeworm and healthy bout of malaria won't fix. How about the pressure to come up with 8 to 10 cleverly worded blog posts a day? Now that, my friends, is a real struggle I deal with on a daily basis. Something no amount of South Beach and power yoga can remedy.

there are starving ethiopian children who are fatter than she is!

she is an ugly chick. and incredibly overrated. she looks like a little rodent when she smiles, which is not often since she's always trying to look sexy and sultry for the camera. kate winslet you are not!

breast buds?

July 5, 2006 10:06 PM

Omg, if she stands sideways and sticks her tongue out, she'll look like a zipper!

She just picked the wrong dress for her tiny frame. I was skinnier and ate whatever I wanted and had to add to my calories to gain weight so I know. I was not anorexic and she most likely is not either. I wish I could rewind and have less fat! Leave the poor girl alone!

I have to agree with J - I do not see what makes her so attractive to everyone - those crooked looking vampire teeth and that stupid pout she works ...well, I just don't see it. I am sure she is nice enough and I do agree - I have seen fatter Ethiopian kids.

So Nicole is now eating something more than a Tic Tac and the media has found another victim...

I'll take Kiera's anorexia any day over the extremely offensive advert below it. Nothing like having some demeaning pictures of women with my morning tea.

July 6, 2006 6:19 AM

ohh goody. another actress that will soon be known not for her work in films but for her skeletor appearance and then 5 years later, her tell-all memoir, "How I Overcame Anorexia (Though I Really Didn't Have It, I Swear!)". how pathetic. at least other skeletal celebs, like nicole richie, are actually entertaining as well.

July 6, 2006 6:43 AM

Thats fine and all if you like that fresh out of the concentration camp look...

July 6, 2006 6:55 AM

Thanks LA, I was just wondering if anyone else was bothered by the suggestive ads, is anyone else bothered?

Kiera is just thin, she always has been. She's an ok actress who isn't that attractive (in my opinion) & someone put her in the wrong dress. Good for her if she is staying strong, with a healthy self image, despite Hollywood's obsessions.

July 6, 2006 7:51 AM

She was in the right place at the right time (Bend it like Beckham) and you could tell Hollywood was going to grab her because she fits the typical starlett look. She is the English version of Jacinda Barrett. I suspect Entourage is very indicative of the Hollywood mechanism... this girl is just one of the cogs. Finally, when a fat actress tells me there is no pressure to stay thin in Hollywood, I will believe it. I don't believe talking stick figures have any perspective upon which to base that opinion because I suspect her agent is screaming "EAT SOMETHING!!!!".

you something you guys need to stop picking on people you dont know.

i have a friend, he weighs about 100 pounds soaking wet, and i have seen this boy eat. (he is about 30) and he just cant seem to gain any weight. when i was in high school i had a female friend who was the same way.

everyone is different, no one has the same body chemistry. yes there are some people out there who dont take care of themselves like they should, eating on a regular basis, and then there are others who dont know how to stop. which is why we are a country of obese lazy people. we are a country of extremes we are either really fat or really skinny.

but you dont know what she eats and if she keeps it in and neither do i

do you want to follow her around with a camera or recorder 24 hours a day to find out

i completely agree about the ad at the bottom.

Yep, more of this stuff and I won't be visiting socialitelife.com any longer.

There is a difference between naturally thin and skeletal. Keira has actually lost weight since Bend it Like Beckham, and she really didn't have much to lose in the first place. She might not think she has a problem with food and self-image but, then again, most people with real, full-blown eating disorders think they are just being healthy and losing a little weight. She looks positively emaciated, not slender or thin or svelte or any b.s. like that.

July 6, 2006 11:29 AM

She's skinny, there's no doubt. But I will say, she's at least got enough sense to eat enough to not have bones poking through her skin a la Nicole Ritchie and Kate Bosworth.

July 6, 2006 1:47 PM

I cannot believe what you just said, Ldysunfyre. In that first picture you can count her ribs between her breasts. In the third on, you can count every single vertebra in her spine, and she's standing up straight! The last picture looks like her collarbone is going to poke through her skin any second now. She looks awful.

I like the dress. I think she looks stupid. She says stupid things. Or, to be fair, she's quoted saying stupid things.

Susan, if you were skinnier than hideous Keira Knightley, chances are you had anorexia. After reading your post, I'm 100% sure you have anorexia. Hope you don't mind a stranger diagnosing you.

I don't find her disgusting, but she needs another 10 pounds on her frame. Otherwise she would have looked really good at the premiere (nice hair and makeup).

July 15, 2006 10:43 PM

she is pretty, but i dont find her too pretty. I think its just because she is tall and has a naturally lean figure.

June 10, 2008 3:55 AM

Ok listen although ive never met Keira I am a fan of all her movies and she has had to do a lot of working out and stuff for her movies like PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN and DOMINO. I think that she is just naturally thin and perfectly healthy not anorexic. I mean ive been in that situation at school when i was working out and started eating a little bit less(but not a ton less) for the school play and I got so thin that people called me something I wasnt.so unless you personally know them you shouldnt call them something that you dont know is true or not.
