Keira Knightley

Keira Knightley will soon be a married woman. The lucky man? James Righton.

The lovely British actress, probably best known for stealing the screen in the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise and melting hearts with Love Actually quotes, is engaged to the rock musician, her rep confirmed early Friday.

After a series of long-term relationships with actors Jamie Dornan and Rupert Friend, Knightley, 27, started seeing Righton, 28, in early 2011.

He popped the question earlier this month. Keira Knightley's fiancé is the vocalist / keyboardist for the London-based indie rock brand Klaxons.

The couple was reportedly introduced by model and TV host Alexa Chung. No further details about the wedding plans are available at this time.

Congratulations to the happy couple!

She made us smile in Love Actually.

And made us hearken back to classic British literature in Pride & Prejudice.

But in a new three-minute ad for Chanel Coco Mademoiselle perfume, Keira Knightley evokes a different kind of reaction from viewers. Especially male viewers.

Movie director Joe Wright is behind the camera for this glamourous commercial, which depicts Knightley in a state of undress. Do we actually see any of her bare goods? No. But the seductive allure is present throughout nonetheless...

Keira Knightley no longer has a friend. Rupert Friend, that is.

The long-time couple has split, according to the actress' father. He told The Sun: "They have broken up. They were together for quite a long time and it is always hard breaking up. She's focused on her work."

Knightley and Friend met in 2005 while filming Pride and Prejudice. She just complete filming on A Dangerous Method, while he will appear in the movie 5 Days of August later this year.

Last year, a Chanel ad featuring Keira Knightley topless generated a lot of buzz. Now a new version has finally been revealed and it's ... pretty revealing.

Which is all good, though we're not entirely sure how seeing Keira Knightley nude or close to it is an effective marketing strategy to sell some perfume.

Buy Chanel perfume and ... look like Keira Knightley topless? It doesn't make a whole lot of sense to be honest. Nor does wearing suspenders with that outfit. They just look so uncomfortable. Oh well. The Love Actually beauty does the best she can.

Here's her latest provocative Chanel ad ...

Keira Knightley's dramatic anti-domestic violence PSA, which debuted earlier this month, was apparently a little too hard-hitting for the British censors.

British advertising watchdog Clearcast has demanded cuts - pun not intended - be made to Cut, the ad Knightley starred in for the U.K. charity Women's Aid.

The ad group claims that final scenes, in which the star comes home and her boyfriend absolutely goes Chris Brown on her, is too shocking for TV audiences.

Women's Aid has already come forward to defend the ad, in which Keira is slapped, pushed to the ground and repeatedly kicked, and to denounce the ruling.

Here's the graphic ad - viewer discretion is advised:

"We were very careful to reflect what we had heard from anecdotal evidence," charity spokeswoman Lucy Brown said, adding that the charity has been successful in both raising public awareness and getting a strong, positive response to the spot.

The ad, directed by Joe Wright, who also directed a nude Keira Knightley in Atonement, is still available online, where it has been viewed more than 1 million times.

But without the edits, Clearcast won't allow it on British TV.

What do you think? Too much, or important to get the point across?

Likely inspired by the Rihanna and Chris Brown debacle, Keira Knightley has filmed a public service video that focuses on domestic violence.

In the two-minute clip, which debuts April 6 in movie theaters, Knightley heads home after a long day of filming.

Once there, she is brutally attacked by her boyfriend.

As the camera pans out, the beating continues, the location is revealed to be an empty film set and the ad reads:

Isn't it time someone called cut?

The actress says she filmed the spot because "while domestic violence exists in every section of society we rarely hear about it.... Domestic violence affects one in four women at some point in their lifetime and kills two women every week."

Are you listening, Rihanna?

Any loyal celebrity gossip follower knows what Kim Kardashian looks like when she bangs. It's hot stuff.

But Keira Knightley recently showed off her own bangin' style, as her eyelash-dusting locks call attention to her beautiful brown eyes below.

Compare the similar 'dos and let us know which celebrity is the better banger:

Whose bangs do you like best?

It's been a long ass while since our last Rupert Friend sighting, but it's very good to see that he and Keira Knightley are still together.

On Friday, the two of them were seen cozying up to one another while strolling through her London neighborhood. Aren't they sweet?

The gorgeous Keira can be seen on film starring alongside Dominic Cooper in The Duchess. How is it? Follow this link for a The Duchess review!

Here's one way to divert attention from your rumored eating disorder:

Wear a ridiculous dress!

That must have been Keira Knightley's philosophy, as she showed up for the world premiere of The Duchess wearing this porcupine-like outfit.

What do you think of the look?

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!

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.
