But Miller, who has befriended with Knightley on the sets of their latest film 'The Edge of Love', insists that the condition of her fellow co-star's health is perfectly sound.
"She eats like a horse. She always asks for seconds and loves her apple crumble. There's no way she has an eating problem." ... Read More ...

Keira Knightley to appear partially nude in new movie
-Posted by: Quivi
Keira Knightley will appear partially nude for a racy scene in new movie 'Atonement.'
The 'Pride and Prejudice' star will disrobe before plunging into a deep fountain and emerging soaking wet in a clingy slip.
The film's director Joe Wright is quoted by Britain's Daily Express newspaper, "I wanted to cast Keira as a woman, a sexual character. She's only ever played girls before.
"There is a key scene with James McAvoy where she dives into a deep fountain to retrieve a broken vase. Keira emerges from the water and stands on the fountain's edge. It was her idea to stand there for quite so long - but I quite liked it."

Keira Knightley "hopeless" in kitchen
-Posted by: Quivi
If there's one skill that Keira Knightley hasn't mastered as yet, it would be the art of cooking.
The British beauty confesses that she is utterly "hopeless" in the kitchen. So much so, that she even encourages her friends not to try out anything she rustles up, for she fears that they might end up getting food poisoning.
"I have tried but I really am hopeless," Contactmusic quoted her, as saying.
"I can cook maybe one dish but even then, if you ate it, you'd probably end up with food poisoning," she added. ... Read More ...

Sony disputes Pirates' box office record
-Posted by: Quivi
According to The Hollywood Reporter, Sony is questioning the accuracy of the six-day worldwide box office haul reported by Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End, claiming that Disney actually opened the movie a day early in Italy and France, which would mean its six-day totals actually occurred over seven days. Pirates set an overseas launch record with $251 million over ''six'' days, $19 million ahead of Sony's Spider-Man 3.
Buena Vista International, the foreign distribution arm of the Walt Disney Co., confirms that $1.4 million in sales from a seventh day were rolled into the six-day total, and a Sony executive claims that Spidey 3, which opened a day early in 18 overseas markets, should be given a seven-day record for taking in $418.1 million over that timespan.

But even with the stresses involved in filming Dead Man's Chest and At World's End back to back, Keira says she wouldn't have had it any other way.

Johny Depp awes Keira
-Posted by: Quivi
You will find Keira Knightley running, at full pelt, through the alleyways and across bridges in the seedy red lantern district of old Singapore which has been painstakingly recreated on a massive studios sound stage in Hollywood. Here, Keira speaks about the final franchise of the Pirates movie, her character Elizabeth Swann and more...
How is working on Pirates 2 and 3 compared to the first film?
It has been weird because I can't even remember where we started. I guess we started in February and it felt like the last two years had never happened and we have been working on Pirates of the Caribbean the entire time. (laughs) But it has been great. It's a long haul, as I said. I have never done anything for so long as this, which makes it different. ... Read More ...

KNIGHTLEY FEARS TELEPHONE ISSUES WILL COST HER A GREAT LOVE
-Posted by: Quivi
KEIRA KNIGHTLEY fears she'll never have a "great romance" because she won't be able to make a long-distance relationship last. The Pirates of The Caribbean star, who is currently dating actor Rupert Friend, admits she falls in love easily but worries that her job as an actress will scupper any meaningful relationship - because she'll always be on location. She tells OK! magazine, "Since I hate talking on the phone, I wonder how I would manage a long-distance relationship. "I'm thinking about how I'm going to handle a great romance and how much I'd suffer or make the guy suffer if I disappear onto a film set for three months and then fall out of love with him."
