Keira Knightley shared some pearls of wisdom during an interview with UK’s Radio Times.

On looking good
“Somebody goes, ‘Gosh, you’re pretty.’ Thanks. I’ve got good genes! OK, I’m on the cover of a magazine but somebody else does the hair, and the makeup, and airbrushes the fuck out of me – it’s not me, it’s something other people have created.”

On being rich and famous
“It frightens me when kids go, ‘I want to be famous.’ Why? Because you can get into a restaurant? You know what? If you book [a table], you can get into a restaurant! ‘I want to be rich and famous.’ Go and work on the stock market.”

On suing Britain’s Daily Mail for suggesting she had an eating disorder
“You couldn’t say anything more horrendous. So yes, I did take a hard line, and I would take that line again.”

So Keira Knightley’s advice for people who want to be rich and famous is to go into the stock market. Brilliant brilliant stuff. I mean, Hollywood, stock market, they’re basically the same thing. It’s like telling somebody who dreams of being an astronaut to get a job at Costco. Because, you know, they sell telescopes. Same thing!


  1. wackingboy

    I’d stick it in her and pee.

  2. snizzle

    SCEOND!

  3. Andrew

    Obviously taken out of context. The other two comments make perfect sense. This is a little bit desperate.

  4. Protein in your diet is a good thing.

    Finger down my throat Euro trash…

  5. Flavio

    Damn… I´d love sucking her ass… she´s definately stunning.

  6. WTC!!! This is what I get today? Bullshit. I’m going back to bed.

  7. She’s a terrible actress. She does this thing when she wants to be passionate, where she juts out her jaw. It’s weird. Bitch needs a steak.

  8. Lovely

    There’s nothing more hot than chest bones and a rib cage… sexy sexy

  9. 1MILF Hunter

    Nice rack.

  10. edan

    Um…why has no one commented on this dress.
    It’s gold lamé with a bedazzled belt. She looks like she got it at “Trashy Slut Whores from the 80s”.

  11. Knew she was too good to be true, Keira Knightley: Brains and Beauty. What a fool I am.

  12. YouRang

    Did she get a double mastectomy for precautionary reasons? Ethiopian boys are more chesty.

  13. #11 Hey, that’s where I shop!!!

  14. I’d still pay to take a long sniff of her ass

  15. Taylor

    Front and back look the same..

  16. p0nk

    …or like telling somebody who wants to be a comedian to write editorials for the fish… what?

  17. Tom

    Doesn’t she realize how UNATTRACTIVE she looks in that dress? That dress was not made for a boy!

  18. nina

    #16
    you wish you or your girlfriend look like her.

  19. Guy

    Everything she said makes perfect sense. Fail. Try again.

  20. Edan

    #14. Well, i mean, me too, um…yeah…

  21. ToTellTheTruth

    I vote to take this bitch to Popeye’s so she can get herself a 10 piece and some biscuits, and WHERE the fuck are her tits?

  22. wedgeone

    Look at her body, pretend she’s 13, get rock hard.

    It’s a simple equation, folks. You can keep your KimberlyStewardNormalCellulite asses, and your RealHipposHaveCurves. I’ll take the young girl in her prime, thanks.

  23. Hi, I'm Ken

    She may be wise, but dayum, what a lardass!

  24. lambman

    #3 – I agree, her comments are actually pretty level headed and reasonable, of course if you cut them up and put it together like that it sounds a bit goofy…but I pretty much agree with the points she’s making

    1) in reality she doesn’t look how she does on mag coveres

    2) people want to be rich and famous for the wrong reasons, to me she’s saying “if you want to be an actor, be an actor, if you just want to be rich go work in stocks”

    3) tabloids shouldn’t be allowed to lie about people’s medical conditions

  25. Warren Piece

    Aw come on! There’s nothing sexier than a woman comfortable in her own skin. Chicks with small boobs that flaunt them/don’t pad them is so hot. Truly. She’s a beautiful girl, making some (refreshingly) honest comments. Though she has cankles which drives me nuts.

  26. p911gt10c

    She’s hot, she’s got a brain and a feisty attitude. So wrong for this site.
    And for the record, small tits are fuckin HOT. They’ll never sag and most times don’t even need a bra, so bring ‘em on!

  27. umawwi

    This cow has the worst posture in the world. And she’s ugly. And stupid.

  28. BlaaaahBlaaaaah

    Keira – please put a pie in your cakehole you need to put on a few pounds pet.

  29. kt

    did anyone else notice her eyebrows?? they look gray!

  30. Malffy Hernandes

    What in the fuck? I hate how stars say they hate their job and yet…thye still do it? Backwards idiots, I think God I was born wealthy because these assholes are bloody mad with this talk.

  31. TR

    pretentious cunt. I hope she gets by a bus.

  32. jrzmommy

    Most Truthful Thing She Said:
    “I would take that line again.”

    And we all know what she meant…………..

  33. A very tired New Yorker

    I love when these “already famous and rich” celebs start pontificating on how fake the actors life is blah-blah-blah. Shaddap and enjoy your fame and be grateful.

    It’s like when a New Yorker goes to Compton with the aloof attitude of “Pfft, I’m from New York” and gets a cap in his ass.

    Don’t know what the connection is but I’m going for the fake aloof aspect here.

  34. some guy

    “I hate how stars say they hate their job and yet…thye still do it? ”

    She said nothing of the kind. NOTHING.

  35. Some guy

    “So Keira Knightley’s advice for people who want to be rich and famous is to go into the stock market. Brilliant brilliant stuff. I mean, Hollywood, stock market, they’re basically the same thing. It’s like telling somebody who dreams of being an astronaut to get a job at Costco. Because, you know, they sell telescopes. Same thing!”

    Wow, you’re not very bright, are you? That’s not what she’s saying at all.

  36. La Vale

    8 Duchess

    I thought that jaw thing was the English “upper-crusty talk through your teeth” thing. I never saw it your way, very interesting.

  37. Malffy Hernandes

    Yes she did, pretty much by encouraging others not to do it she implied it.

  38. I’d only do her a month after she agreed to go on a double cheeseburger and chocolate malt diet for 30 straight days, 3 times a day….EAT SOMETHING !

  39. LauraE

    Why would someone hire her when one can have Cameron Diaz ? Is she much cheaper or what ?

  40. Dr. Douche

    And remember folks, these are photos. In real life she looks even skinnier.

    (ewwwww – shivering)

    She is purty though.

  41. td

    I lost money on the stock market during the internet bubble!!!

  42. Shuthefuckup

    I am so sick of this bullshit whining and crying thats she’s rich and famous. Please go crawl in a hole and spend your days counting all your money then, so other people can get your movie roles.

  43. nagger please

    I know how to shut her up.. I’ll stick my dick in her mouth.. It’s amazing what I’d do for you guys..

  44. Courtney

    Hey Mr. Superfish, as the officially least funny/clever/relevant blogger ever, do you really feel like you’re in any position to criticize? Well, obviously you do, but honestly… you’re a joke. I’d say telling kids to stay the hell away from Hollywood and steer toward business is pretty good fucking advice, as hypocritical as it may be.

  45. Sarah

    There’s nothing more horrendous they could say?
    What if they said she was a murderer? Or a child molester? Or a thief? Or had a history of sickening cruelty to animals?
    But no. A comment about her body and how she looks is the worst thing she can think of. Keira Knightley stinks.

  46. UNCLE NED

    What is it exactly about this thin, flat-chested bitch that is supposed to be so hot?

    Stunning? Feisty? Is there something about her face that’s overwhelmingly beautiful? She’s got no curves, and a typical British-asshole attitude to boot.

    Lohan (when she wants to be) is prettier than this flat board.

  47. she is technically right, but for someone who got into acting to be rich, famous etc, it’s pretty hypocritical to tell people it’s ridiculous. No one gets into acting at 16 for the craft of acting, nor do you get into on camera work. If she was a stage actress making these comments I might buy it more.

    It’s the typical response from an actress who sees her days as the ‘next big thing’ fading.

  48. asdfsaf

    DOES KIERA EVER FUCKING CLOSE HER LIPS????????????????

    she’s got an underbite, and never seals those lips.

    always a crack in them

  49. hey courtney-
    i had no idea this was the least funny blog ever. where are are these funnier ones? it must be yours. where is yours? is it full of hyperboles and exagerrations borne out of bitterness because you are a 46 year old uglier version of your own mother still working as a lame ass admin assistant whos about to get fired because she doesnt work, she just reads blogs and declares them all the be THE WORST ever when they say one thing she doesnt agree with?
    shut the hell up. thanks! and go check the fax machine too.
