    Default Keira Knightley refuses breast enhancement for 'The Duchess'



    http://www.nydailynews.com/gossip/20...hanceme-1.html

    We'll always have "King Arthur."
    Keira Knightley has refused to allow any enhancement of her cleavage on publicity photos for her upcoming movie, "The Duchess," Britain's Daily Mail reports.
    Studio heads reportedly want to enlarge Knightley's bosom in the photos, but the actress, 23, put her foot down.
    "She has insisted that her figure stay in its natural state," an insider said. "She is proud of her body and doesn't want it altered."
    This isn't the first time Knightley has faced this dilemma. The actress drew negative attention in 2004 with her larger-than-usual breasts in publicity stills for "King Arthur."
    "Those things certainly weren't mine," Fox News quoted her as saying in 2006. According to Knightley, the studio marketing team was behind her suddenly C-cup breasts, but gave her final approval on the photos.
    "I was like, 'OK, fine. I honestly don't give a s---,'" she recalled.
    Knightley has expressed dissatisfaction with her small bustline. "I would love to have [breasts]!" she told Britain's GMTV last year, adding, "I'm never going to get [them]. I'm naturally who I am."
    While she's a fan of going au naturale in "The Duchess," Knightley looks "flat-chested in the whole movie," the source says.

    Good for her, she shouldn't be forced to change her image if she's happy in her own skin

    Keira Knightly is female? I always thought she was a boy in drag.

    That enhanced image is so not a C-cup.

    Look, what would an all-timer like Bobby DeNiro do for a part? If he were playing fat, he'd get fat. If he were playing bald, he'd shave his head. If he were playing Abraham Lincoln, he'd have special stilts made for his legs. I don't see why Keira Knightly can't take the same approach and have her breasts done up big for a role-- it's acting, dammit! What, Nicole Kidman can put on a funny schnozz to play Vaggie Woolf and Keira can't blow up her rack a little?

    Nope, she refuses to have photoshopped image on publicity materials.

    If she accepted to play a playboy bunny kind of role she'd agree to have enhancement I suppose.

    I wish that was the case with more actors,why couldn't Mel Gibson really have died in Braveheart? it would have been far more accurate.

    That's because there wasn't a plot, it was just her looking hot and saying "Im Domino Harvey" for and hour and a half...but Tom Waits was in it, which was cool!

    If she put on a little weight she'd get some breasts naturally.She's way too skinny.

    Some people are very thin naturally. As long as she doesn't have any health or psychological problems about eating I think it's fine, though I agree that she is thin.

    No I'm not suggesting that she choose putting on weight for life.But Renee Zelwegger put on lots for Bridget Jones and it s a better option than going under the knife.

    I think you're having the same problem I was. I thought they wanted her to have implants, but all they really wanted to do was "photoshop" her picture to make it look like she had boobs.

    so really in the time we've spent thinking about it, something might have been accomplished. If I find my broom I am going to sweep the floor, for example.

    I do not believe she is that naturally thin. I think many actors today diet into silly sizes and its a pressure from hollywood or agents. I think we all know that. Fitting into a ten year olds shorts ala posh spice is not a "normal" size no matter how many times they tell us they eat like a horse so on. They don't

    Props to her for that. Usually I can't stand the woman.

    Shame, she could do with it. As Clarkson once said (I think it was Clarkson), "she is just an ironing board with a face".

    Love PTxx.

    I like being worried about the stars and the pressure from Hollywood as much as anyone, but I don't know who Keira Knightley is really, and Posh Spice is just a silly tart.

    Now If you want to worry about Britney, I'll go look up her latest story and we can have a beer or a cup of tea or something and worry ourselves sick.
