Keira Knightley

Actress Keira Knightley is one daughter who is bold enough to discuss sex with her mother.

The Edge of Love star branded her playwright mother Sharman Macdonald a “chilled-out hippy”.

She says, “Mum and I would always talk about sex. “She’d come up to my room, have me roll her cigarettes and then tell me I had to have one with her.

“It’s not the typical mother-daughter thing but we’re extremely close.”

She adds, “Mum’s a bit mental in a good way. She’s this chilled-out hippy mother.

“My house was always the one where my brother and his mates would be drinking when they shouldn’t be.

Keira was recently nicknamed the No.2 female earner of Hollywood after she earned $32m last year.

Keira Knightely has revealed that she doesn’t like to cover her breasts with a bra while filming a sex scene and would like to do the scene with bare breasts.

She explained, “I always bare my breasts - not just in this film.

“I never like sex scenes when I’ve got a bra on, thank you very much.”

However the 23-year-old actress finds singing more terrifying than displaying her bare breasts.

The actress added, “That was terrifying. I wasn’t particularly expecting to sing.”

“I was like a pre-pubescent boy. My knees were shaking but a couple of shots of vodka and everything was OK.”

Keira also applauded her mother, Sharman Macdonald for adding a sex scene in her new flick The Edge of Love.

She said, “She dared to put a sex scene in it. It didn’t worry me that my mother knows what sex is.”

“Come to think of it, I was found under an apple tree. My mother is a virgin. I had no hissy fits when she presented me with the scene”

Well it doesn’t matter if Keira bares her breasts they are very small to turn on a man.

Yeah! That’s what actress Keira Knightley thinks about herself. She brands herself as a stupid because she doesn’t realize when she is being chatted up.

The 23-year-old star revealed that not too many guys approach her and even if they hit on her she rarely notices it.

She said, “I never get chatted up. Honestly, I don’t! And I’m so stupid that I wouldn’t even realize if I was. I sometimes get a look but that’s about it!”

Keira’s co-star of Edge of Love, Sienna Miller recently revealed that the leggy beauty threw her halfway across a room while filming a scene.

Miller said, “I was filming this scene where I was on top of Matthew Rhys, who played Dylan Thomas, and Keira had to come and pull me off. But she literally ended up throwing me halfway across the room!”

Keira smiled and said,  “I just don’t know my own strength!”

Well that proves that thin girls are also strong.

Keira Knightley was originally assigned to play the character of Caitlin Thomas in her upcoming flick The Edge of Love penned specially for her by her screenwriter mom Sharman MacDonald untill she refused to play the character.

Macdonald narrated Keira the role of Caitlin Thomas but she went against the ideas of her mother to play the part of Vera. Macdonald had to transform the character of Vera Phillips according to Keira’s liking.

Macdonald revealed, “I said, ‘You’re playing Caitlin (to Keira Knightley),’ and she said, ‘No, I like Vera.’”

“She (Vera Phillips) wasn’t even a singer until Keira decided to play her.”

Vera Phillips plays the love interest of Welsh poet Dylan Thomas in the movie The Edge of Love that is based of the Welsh poet’s life.

The movie is going to premiere on 18th June at the Edinburgh Film Festival in Scotland.

Well most of us drool more over Knightely sexy pout more than her flat body and the Pirates of the Caribbean star revealed that her sensual pout is due to nervous tension.

Knightely also added that she did not pout her lips on purpose and the star actually hates her pouty look.

Knightely said, “I think I was pouty when I was 16 or 17, when my first films came out and that image sort of stuck. I don’t know, maybe I still do it. It’s when I’m nervous and my neck gets really tense and then that pressure sort of squeezes up to my lips and they push out and well, there you go, that’s the pout.”

So much for a pout! Eh!

Keira Knightley likes to smash glasses when she is angry.

The ‘Pirates of the Caribbean’ star says having a glass-throwing tantrum calms her down when she is upset.

Keira believes she inherited her raging temper from her father, actor Will Knightley.

She told Hello! magazine: “I am like my father. I have ‘the Knightley streak’. He gets angry at inanimate objects. I find it therapeutic to throw glasses even if you have to spend the rest of the night on your hands and knees collecting pieces of glass.

“Whether you are frustrated, sad or drunk it works. It takes the anger away.”

Keira, 22, also admits she is “a bit of a drama queen” and feels constantly insecure.

The actress - who recently confessed to be envious of The Gossip singer Beth Ditto’s full figure - said:

“Look up insecurity in the dictionary, ‘For insecurity, see Keira Knightley.’ Constant insecurities. But I’m 22 and my body is alright at the moment. It’s not going to get much better. I know I might as well make the most of it.”

Keira is currently starring as Elizabeth Swann in ‘Pirates of the Caribbean: At World’s End’. The adventure movie has been a worldwide box office smash, taking $401 million since its global opening last Wednesday

Women have the extra ordinary capabilities of acting vain, don’t they??? They can gaze into the mirror for hours together and end up admiring and criticizing each and every pore of their body separately and when it comes to shopping, God save the salesman and their husbands!!! And we’re talking about one such shopaholic celebrity here – Keira Knightley!

The ‘Pirates of the Caribbean’ actress is successful and rich alright… but just look at the way she philanders away her money!!! Thankfully, she doesn’t have a husband so all the money goes out from her a/c! And she’s actually a shop keeper’s delight… Especially if it’s a footwear store…

“I see a pair of shoes I adore, and it doesn’t matter if they have them in my size. I buy them anyway,” she told one interviewer. “I have shoes I’ve never taken out of the box. I even have shoes that don’t fit.” Says the babe… whew Keira! You definitely make me think if shoes are meant to give comfort to the feet or the eyes

Kiera Knightley has recently confessed that she ain’t an easy soul to deal with ! In a recent interview with the Elle magazine, the ‘Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man’s Chest‘ star admitted that she was not very stable
emotionally .

“I’m an emotional wreck”

“I’m an emotional wreck”, She exclaimed . The one unusual quality about the actress who was as young as 15 years when she appeared in the ‘Princess
of Thieves‘, is that she doesn’t get worked up about the things that warrant a freak-out ! It’s just those small situations that drive her up the wall. “I have this awful tendency to cry when I get really angry, and I can’t stop”, the beautiful lady admitted with a blush . Though she proudly did admit that she can come up with some cutting one liners, she also agreed that she didn’t take much time to ruin the applause by crying out immediately. The only option was to tell herself - “S#*t! I completely ruined my one liner. Its ANNOYING!”
