Keira Knightley: Nude, Happy in New Film

Whether or not Keira Knightley is anorexic can be debated for hours.

But the fact that Keira Knightley is beautiful is indisputable.

With that in mind, men may wanna line up for her latest movie, despite its chick flick-esque title, The Edge of Love. How come? In a word: boobs!

Keira Knightley Nude

Rupert Friend isn’t the only person who can see Keira Knightley nude.

“I always bare my breasts,” Knightley said at the press conference to promote the film at the Edinburgh International Film Festival. “It’s not like it’s only in this film!”

She makes a good point. The Love Actually star did bare it all in Atonement last year, as she explained why she gets naked in the new movie during the same press conference.

“It was very simple. It was a sex scene and I never like them when they’ve got bras on,” she said, referring to a hot part of the script. “[So when the director asked me to remove her bra] I said, ‘All right then.’”

All is right with that decision, indeed, Keira.

Mom: Keira Knightley Not Anorexic

The Hollywood Gossip: Yeah right.

Despite the actress’ remarkably brittle, slender figure, the mother of Keira Knightley insists it’s thanks to her genes, not her diet.

“She’s always been thin,” Keira’s mom, Sharman Macdonald, told Britain’s Sunday Times. “She’s her daddy’s daughter, with his long body.”

Like her father, the actress, 23, must “eat like a horse,” to maintain her weight, Macdonald said. Mmm hmm. We’ve heard it all before.

Last year, Keira Knightley successfully sued Britain’s Daily Mail, saying the tabloid implied she lied about having an eating disorder.

Keira Knightley is Serious ...

In 2006, Knightley vociferously denied that she suffered from anorexia. She soon began dating Rupert Friend, who’s some sort of actor.

That’s not at all relevant, but we thought you might be interested.

In the Times interview, Knightley’s mom says the rumors are all upsetting, especially because she felt there was little she could do about them.

“It’s a playground situation that we’re looking at with the press – it’s a form of bullying – but what can we do?”

Keira Knightley, Friend Out For a Stroll

That’s Rupert Friend, people! Her boyfriend! Of, like, a long time! While the rest of you poor saps are hankering for a five-second glimpse of Keira Knightley naked in Atonement, this dude is seeing the real deal every day! All 80 pounds of it!

Rupert Friend and Keira Knightley

Keira Knightley stays bundled up and walks in step with boyfriend Rupert Friend during a chilly afternoon comprised of running errands in London on Wednesday.

In the estimation of The Hollywood Gossip staff, Rupert Friend is certainly among the least interesting celebrity boyfriends out there. All they do is walk around! Oooh.

There was a time when Cash Warren fit that bill, as all he and Jessica Alba did was show up at the occasional NBA game. But then he got her pregnant! Go Cash! What are you waiting for, Rupert Friend? Give us something to gossip about man.

Rupert Friend, Keira Knightley Still Going Strong

Friend, RupertWe can’t say with certainty that Keira Knightley and Rupert Friend are built to last, but they sure looked cozy on some recent nights out.

Braving snowy N.Y. weather while out for a walk in the SoHo neighborhood with beau of at least a year, Rupert Friend, Keira Knightley was somehow able to keep warm despite her thin frame. Phew.

The next night, the couple, dressed in hip attire, snuggled up together at a Chanel Beauté dinner at the N.Y. eatery, Balthazar, to celebrate the actress’ new film, Atonement.

A source at the party tells us that Rupert “More Than A” Friend kept his arm around his girlfriend all night, adding that they were “very sweet together.”

Looks like someone is trying to keep Keira Knightley naked all to himself. Can you blame him? Now if he’d just get her to eat a cheeseburger every so often, we’d be set.

More Keira Knightley Naked to Come?

If you enjoy looking at Keira Knightley naked, you may be in luck:

The actress recently told Elen DeGeneres that she can’t stop baring it all during magazine shoots.

“At the moment, my friends actually have bets going on that I can’t actually do a photo shoot keeping my clothes on,” the actress said, following a question about her recent, naked pictorial for Interview. “And I can’t.”

And why not, Keira?

Because her birthday suit is “vaguely liberating,” the actress said. “I hope I don’t become a nudist.”

We hope this British star doesn’t mind if we don’t exactly share that hope.

Keira on Ellen

Keira Knightly admits she can’t stop getting nude for photo shoots. But we fail to see the problem.

Keira Knightley, Naked, Graces Cover of Interview

You can pay $10 to see Keira Knightley nude in the upcoming movie Atonement.

Or you can shell out about half that amount and see the actress half-naked in the December 2007/January 2008 issue of Interview Magazine. Here are some highlights from Knightley’s chat with the publication:

How was the photo shoot?
We ended by taking my clothes off again. How does that always happen?

Why do you think?
I don’t know. Because I say yes, I suppose.

Did you relate to the Hollywood-glamour thing when you were growing up?
I think it’s wonderful to have those aesthetic fantasies. Those films pretend that you can wake up in the morning with bright red lipstick and perfect false eyelashes and hair; I like that.

Take notice, Heather Mills: Keira Knightley shows how to be naked and classy.

Brittle Keira Knightley Summons Strength to Wave

Against impossible odds, and drawing strength from sheer desire, a gaunt Keira Knightley raises her arm up from her withering frame to show her appreciation to the crowd during her press tour for her latest film, Atonement, on Monday in Toronto.

Keira Knightley: Frail

Or maybe she’s waving to Rupert Friend. We really don’t know.

Keira says she’s had just about enough of celebrity news blogs calling her anorexic (surely that nut Chris Crocker has as well), but let’s be serious here!

She’s rail thin, to put it mildly, and Keira Knightley’s skin has lost all semblance of color. Has she ingested any food since August? It’s questionable.

Her once-hot body clearly not getting enough nutrients, and is starting to look like Mischa Barton from her days on The OC, or like one of those freaky, flying specters the gang from Ghostbusters would have a field day with.

Keira Knightley: James McAvoy is the Best Kisser

Keira Knightley, James McAvoyBelieve it or not, Keira Knightley has named James McAvoy, her latest co-star, the best. Kisser. Ever.

Eat your heart out, Rupert Friend. Then go make Keira some dinner and eat that. Man, she’s thin.

“James McAvoy is the best kisser ever!” said a giggling Keira Knightley, 22, of her Atonement co-star.

Despite kissing the likes of Johnny Depp and Orlando Bloom, Knightley - who has been dating Rupert Friend for a good while - dubbed James McAvoy the best at the Venice Film Festival.

This isn’t the first stunning revelation of its kind. Megan Fox, despite being hot (and engaged to Brian Austin Green), recently called Shia LeBouf the best kisser ever.

So there. McAvoy, 28, reciprocated the compliment saying, “I was blown away by Keira. The amount of poise and grace she has is incredible.”

If by poise and grace, he means “skin and bones,” then we couldn’t agree with you more, James. Very well put.

In Atonement, a war drama set in 1935, a possibly nude Keira Knightley plays Cecilia Tallis, an upper-class beauty whose fledgling love affair with a young housekeeper’s son (James McAvoy) is destroyed by a tragic misunderstanding.

James McAvoy - who is married to British actress Anne-Marie Duff - said he was enjoying Venice “very much,” adding, with a smile, “it’s very romantic.”

Nude Keira Knightley Gives Props to Genes, Airbrushing

 We don’t really care what forces were behind the recent Keira Knightley nude photo spread for Chanel. But the actress is gonna tell us anyway.

“Somebody goes, ‘Gosh, you’re pretty,’ ” Knightley said to the UK’s Radio Times. “Thanks. I’ve got good genes!

More than just thanking her family, the lovely Brit also gives props to the advertising experts that know how to touch up a picture. She said:

“OK, I’m on the cover of a magazine but somebody else does the hair, and the makeup, and airbrushes the f— out of me – it’s not me, it’s something other people have created.”

We’re not sure why The Pirates of the Caribbean star – who replaced Kate Moss as the face of Chanel’s Coco Mademoiselle fragrance – is so defensive about her looks.

We just think you’re very pretty, Keira.

Of course, this isn’t the first time the actress has taken issue with how she’s portrayed in the media. In January, she successfully sued Britain’s Daily Mail for suggesting she had an eating disorder. (Somehow, she must have missed all The Hollywood Gossip articles pretty much claiming the same thing.)

“You couldn’t say anything more horrendous,” Knightley said of the newspaper’s claims about her thin looks. “So yes, I did take a hard line, and I would take that line again.”

Fortunately, that disgustingly gaunt Jenna Jameson is taking no such line with us and other celebrity news outlets for commenting on her weight.

Finally, Knightley says - in a sexy, sexy accent - that “when I was 16, 17, I felt incredibly awkward about the way I looked.”

We’d imagine this is the same for most girls. Except Hayden Panettiere, of course. That Heroes star turns 18 today. Time to embrace her beauty!

Nude Keira Knightley Advertises Chanel Perfume

Keira Knightley is not exactly famous for her hourglass figure.

But her latest role - which sees her posing virtually naked to advertise a perfume - makes her look subtly different. Despite the unfortunate presence of a hat, the 22-year-old actress appears to be a tiny bit curvier. Check out the ad below … 

Keira Knightley Nude

There she is in all her glory. What do you think? Is a nude Keira Knightley hot stuff? Or do anorexic, Kate Bosworth types just not do it for you?

It’s certainly a different image from that presented in such hit films as Love Actually, Pride and Prejudice and the Pirates Of The Caribbean.

Ever since she appeared in a sports bra as a 17-year-old in Bend It Like Beckham, the waif has done nothing to disguise her lack of cleavage.

Keira, who is rumored to be in a nude scene in her new film, Atonement, once spoke of her chest, saying: “I don’t have any t!ts, so I can’t show cleavage.”

That’s not always something the Hollywood marketing machine (or, possibly, Rupert Friend) has been happy about. While British posters for her 2004 film, King Arthur, displayed her natural, boyish look, the American ones were a different story.

“Those things certainly weren’t mine,” she told a U.S. magazine.
