Keira Knightley Hot Pictures, Wallpapers

Where do we know her from? Our dreams?

Keira Christina Knightley, only 22, is an English film and television actress. That much we know. Do you remember her co-starring in the film Bend It Like Beckham? That was hot-ness in waiting. She’s already been nominated for her role as Elizabeth Bennet in Joe Wright’s 2005 adaptation of Jane Austen’s Pride and Prejudice. With that cute little British accent, she’s the whole package.

Keira Knightley has blossomed into one of the most recognizable and talented actresses of our generation, but even with fame and wealth beyond what most of us will ever know, rumors about an eating disorder and a former boyfriend who tried to kill himself when she broke up with him persist. Regardless of whether you believe she has anorexia or if she is just naturally thin, Keira continues to live the lavish life of a Hollywood Superstar for all the world to see.

To say that Keira had acting in her blood would be an understatement. Both her mother and father were professional actors at one point, and it was easy to see from an early age that the gift had been passed on to Keira. She first appeared on screen at the tender age of seven, but it wasn’t until her role in the mega blockbusterStar Wars Episode 1 that a wide audience was able to see her. Cast as Natalie Portman’s decoy in the hugely successful film, stories from the set described the eerie resemblance Keira had to Natalie once they were both in full costume. It was said that even their own mothers couldn’t tell them apart! But Keira would soon stick out all over the world with her 2003 role in the famous film Bend it like Beckham.

If you don’t know the story of Bend it Like Beckham, you probably live on another planet. This film, depicting an Indian girl’s love of soccer, helped to make Keira one of the hottest names in Hollywood, but no one could predict the incredible drawing power of the upcoming Pirates of the Caribbean series. All three movies have become top 50 world wide money makers, with 2006′s Dead Man’s Chest and 2007′s At World’s End being in the top five. All three movies have combined to make over two and a half billion dollars around the world. With drawing power like that, Keira quickly discovered that she could accept or turn down any project she wanted. She was truly in control of her career.

Keira’s private life, on the other hand, has been anything but smooth. Rumors about her weight, or lack there of, have dogged her for as long as she’s been famous. During the premiere of 2007 film Atonement, Keira was greeted with gasps and concerned looks from the audience that had gathered thanks to her gaunt and extremely unhealthy appearance. Keira has also had bad luck when it comes to men. After a recent break up with fellow British actor Del Synnott, there were rampant rumors that Del attempted suicide rather than face life without Keira. These reports were never confirmed but they were widely accepted to be true. Keira’s current love interest is Rupert Friend, another actor she met on the set of 2005′s Pride and Prejudice.

Assuming she can stay healthy and not have any more boyfriends try to kill themselves over her, the future is bright for Keira. Few other actresses can point to a string of mega money makers like Keira, let’s hope she stays healthy and successful for years to come.
