Keira Knightley doesn’t wear shoes

July 11th, 2006 // 164 Comments

In what I’m assuming was an homage to Britney Spears, Keira Knightley was spotted walking barefoot in London, probably hoping she’d share Spears’ good luck and accidentally step on a hypodermic needle. I’m all for looking poor, but even dirty hobos wear shoes. I guess it’d be unrealistic to expect celebrities to have as much sense as some guy who lives in a cardboard box and screams obscenities at children and fire hydrants.

    I wouldn’t kick her out of bed for farting.

    I would make her wear socks. Dirty bitch.

  2. Ok..Here’s what I think..lol

    Sometimes those expensive heels or sandals cut into your feet after walking around for a while sooooooooo…

    maybe she took them off and threw them in the bag she’s carrying (ahhhh)

    Or she’s a hippie and loves nature (whatever helps you sleep at night) ^_^

    I’ve seen Keira about town; she’s a very lovely person who has a reed-like build but does not look unnaturally thin, nor is she plump. As to going barefoot, like many of us she probably frequently buys shoes that are horribly uncomfortable. I bet she started shopping in her shoes and ended up taking them off because of pain, and is likely carrying them in the bag with whatever she bought. Geesh people get a clue about reality.

    So, you all think barefooting is evil? Well, I have news your you. I AM A BAREFOOTER! And you know what? I’m proud she’s outside barefoot. Lemmie give you some facts….

    1. The streets aren’t paved with needles and glass: Yeah, That’s right. There isn’t any. Seriously, go have a look, and any glass or needles can be seen and/or avoided. Also, there will not be any glass in London’s Poshest streets!

    2. The soles of your feet are thick and more barefooting makes them thicker: GASP! BLASTPHEMY! CAN THIS BE TRUE? It is. The soles of your feet and the palms of your hands have thick skin! We we’re designed to be barefoot!!! Yeah, that’s right!!! You shocked? So no nasty bugs (or after a while even glass) can get through!!! Amazed?

    So please, STOP BEING SO FUCKING ANAL! Ever heard of the saying ‘free country?’ There are people who prefer being barefoot for a variety of reasons, ranging from comfort to convenience. It’s HER choice! SHE IS A PERSON! IT’S NOT LIKE SHE’S DONE ANYTHING ILLEGAL!

    If god meant for us to wear shoes, we’d not have any feet at all!

    Peace out.

    so what is the big deal about being barefoot. just like the poster above, i too am a barefooter. i am always barefoot. the only time i really wear shoes is when i am working. i am a member of many online barefooter groups. your feet were ment to be bare. going barefoot actually improves the health of your feet. you anti-barefooter should visit some of the following sites: “the society for barefoot living”, hip forums barefoot, various my space barefoot groups. shoddiess get over your fucking anti-barefoot prejudice.

    157 is right. Stop being so anal!

    I’m guessing most of you have never actually gone without shoes being you’re all just slaves to conformity. I like to leave them sitting in the house for a while while I go enjoy the carpet of grass outside… I actually try to enjoy life whether or not people like it. And I don’t gush over Paris Hilton. She’s famous because she’s rich and rich because she’s famous.

    But she’s only rich in money.

    OH MY GOD! She’s not wearing gloves either!

    I mean seriously I don’t see the big deal in this. Studies show there is more bacteria on door handels, shopping carts ect, then there is on the ground. So why not have everyone wear gloves? In fact anyone who does not wear gloves is a pig for spreading all that bacteria.

  11. Strong Feet

    Going barefoot is natural, healthy and free. Feet get stronger, soles get tougher, and life gets better.

    I hope all the people with the judgmental attitudes will take a chill pill and maybe even go wiggle their toes during a barefoot walk in the park. Don’t be afraid of using your feet as they were meant to be used.

    Feet can go from air- and light-starved body parts to tanned, tough, fully functonal and even beautiful if you just let them be natural and free. All of you people who find feet disgusting — just give them 24 hours of uninterrupted freedom and you might be singing a different tune.

    Freedom of Choice doesn’t end at the ankles!

  12. Sigh...

    Why dont you guys sit down and think of something else to talk about, im not a barefooter but being barefoot is VERY healthy, All you guys flaming her, i dont see you going out and doing something, why not? Cos your shit scared.

    Oh noes, she has dirty soles, dont look at them then! Besides, she is REALLY going to come here and cry over some kids comment because she chose a more healthy lifestyle then going around in hoodies and smoking weed.

    So really guys, those who insult, you rather do uncomfertable things then slag off those who do healthy things? Goodjob, no wonder this country is going more shit by the day.

    It is not only healthier, but IMHO she looks very sexy with bared soles.

    She looks cool and sexy in bare feet, her feet are beautiful just like her. She’s harming no-one being barefoot, she knows she can do it and she wants to be barefoot, that’s all! Why pestering her? It’s HER life, those are HER feet, she’s got the right to wear shoes or not.
