Quote Of The Day

Filed under: Icky Icky Poo > Anglophilia > Quote of the Day > Keira Knightley

"Weight is a big issue in Hollywood because I'm twice the size, height and everything else, of most of the girls who are going in to see the director for a part. When you realize that I am, at my size, one of the largest actresses there, you start to think, 'I don't think it'd be healthy for me to stay here much longer.'"

- Keira Knightley

shes so gross. and what the hell is she talking about anyway? no one talks about her weight other than her and because shes probably snorting who knows what up that nose of hers she actually does look like everyone else in hollywood, theres nothing different about her at all. other than her accent.

I just watched Pirates of The Carribean: Dead Man's Chest on the weekend and omfg she looked like hell in that sequel. She's a mere slip of her former self. I couldn't stand to watch her. In fact I won't be watching any more movies with anorexics as the leading lady. Gross.

The lack of food is making her light headed and delusional. Poor twig.
sarah says – reply to this

52

if she's twice a normal actress' size, the other girls must be completely invisible! I hate when skinny people deny the fact that they're thin.

well, with people making fun of the way britney spears *cough cough* looked on stage during her horrible VMA performance, how do you expect the rest of the actresses out there to think? we complain that the media creates this image of beauty, but all we do is reinforce it.

if people wanted to say britney spears performed an awful show, then say she performed an awful show, but don't bash the way she looked. i'm sure if she was negative size zero and wore the same thing, people wouldn't say anything aside from it being skanky. only, this time i didn't hear "skanky," i heard that she's too fat to be wearing that.

thin is what gets ratings because as a society, that's all we care about. look, kiera knightly is one of the most beautiful women in hollywood, and she still thinks she's fat.

way to go, world.

Part of the quote is missing. She was talking about her shoe size.
chris says – reply to this

59

Thats just sad… she really has no clue that she's all bones which means she'll probably work to get thinner.
lklk says – reply to this

60

She doesn't look gorgeous she looks fucking sick. Girl needs help.
Are you all insane? says – reply to this

61

I think y'all may be missing her point. I read this as: "At my tiny size, I am larger than a lot of other girls auditioning for parts. It's not healthy for me to be so skinny or in Hollywood for much longer."
How did everyone else NOT get that?!

67

It sounds like she's actually saying she wants to gain weight. IMHO
Jen says – reply to this

68

omg this girl has severe problems!! she is extremely skinny and she needs to realize that and stop saying shes twice the size of girls in hollywood.. I actually like her as an actress, but she needs to face a mirror and realize that she is super skinny… This girl needs some serious help if shes saying stuff like this!

I don't think she means herself literally, but maybe that's the general feeling of actresses when they audition.

S.S. says – reply to this

76

what a twit! I styled her 2 summers ago while I was working for Tracy Feith. First of all…she isn't THAT tall….and her body is TEEEEENNY TINNNNYY!! She wore the smallest size they had in one of their collection dresses and it is impossible to fit into that fraction of a frock if you have the slightest hint of breasts or an adult sized rib cage.
Ann says – reply to this

77

Hold on a sec… if the other actresses are all size-0, and keira's a size-2, then TECHNICALLY she is twice the size of other hollywood actresses (ie kate bosworth). I don't think she's anorexic either… that makeup makes her face look very shallow and hollow (checks and eyes). She's a relatively tall… i think about 5'7" - 5'8"…which is tall for an actress in hollywood, since most of the ladies are below 5'5"…..
Jeri says – reply to this

78

WTF?? She's twice the size of a TOOTHPICK perhaps!
Shaniqua says – reply to this

Re: Ann – You're dumb that's not how sizes work. a 2 would only have about an inch more fabric than a 0, not double retard. besides kate bosworth has put some weight on recently and looks MUCH better. someone probably told her what they need to tell kiera…EAT SOMETHING!

She's beautiful but she starved away her T & A!!!
She's WAY TOOOOO skinny!! says – reply to this

93

Wow- she's nuts. I think it'd be healthy for you to eat. If you have to look like a twig in order to keep up with Hollywood then you're crazy. I watch movies and people aren't as skinny as Keira. She looks soooo bad!
Lola says – reply to this

Erin says – reply to this

96

You know, it is possible to be genetically smaller. I have friends who eat like cows and never gain a pound, and they look like Keira. (and no they don't throw it up either). Looks like people are jealous. But Keira really should try to put on a couple pounds. At her height even 2 lbs would make a difference.

What planet is this woman from?!
She has a beautiful face but absolutely no body-waaay to skinny-no curves at all…unless you count her spine which shows thru her back!
