She said: "I so admire Sienna Miller, she’s wicked. She’s really beautiful and looks f***ing great all the time. "There aren’t many 20-year-old girls who don’t want to be Sienna Miller."
Keira is also in awe of Kate Moss. The ’Pride and Prejudice’ star says she is obsessed with the supermodel’s fashion sense and unique beauty. She added in an interview with the New magazine: "Kate Moss always looks so rock ’n’ roll. I wouldn’t say no to looking or dressing like her."
Keira was banned from pouting - Sept 05
Keira Knightley was banned from pouting in her latest movie. ’Pride and Prejudice’ director Joe Wright ordered the stunning actress to stop pursing her luscious lips while playing Elizabeth Bennet - because it made her look too sexy. Keira confessed: "He kept saying how Elizabeth couldn’t look pretty. I was banned from pouting. The director and crew would be on permanent pout watch. Any sign and they’d scream at me, ’Pout alert! Pout alert!’"
The beautiful star - who recently denied having collagen injections to make her lips look bigger - claims she can’t help pouting when she’s concentrating. She is quoted by Hello’s website as saying: "I honestly don’t do it to be sexy. I do it when I’m concentrating and I sort of push my lips out. I always think it makes me look kind of constipated."
Keira is at the centre of a romance riddle - Sept 05
Keira Knightley is at the centre of a romance riddle - after she was spotted chatting to her ex-boyfriend at the premiere party of new film ’Pride and Prejudice’. The stunning actress was seen at the lavish bash on Monday night (05.09.05) cosying up to model Jamie Dornan, who she split from last month after a series of bust-ups over conflicting work schedules.
Earlier in the evening, a teary-eyed Keira was reportedly seen in the ladies toilets asking after her former love. A source said: "Keira went into the ladies loos and had tears in her eyes. She kept asking her friends, ’Where is Jamie? I’ve got to find him." The brunette beauty is rumoured to now be dating Bodyrockers frontman Kaz James, but although the handsome pop star attended the film’s premiere he was not present at the exclusive bash. It is believed Keira decided not to invite her alleged new squeeze, who had no idea her ex Jamie would be there, to avoid attracting unwanted attention over her love-life, but made sure he was waiting for her at her hotel room.

She starred in The Princess of Thieves in ’01, and then in Bend It Like Beckham in ’02, where she played the role of a football-obsessed teenager alongside the lead actress Parminder Nagra. Because she had barely touched a football until then, Keira trained intensely for three full months, practicing tricks and ball handling, Brazilian style. As Bend It Like Beckham gained in popularity, so did Keira, making a name for herself.
It was not long before Jerry Bruckheimer, the famous Hollywood producer of blockbusters like Pearl Harbor, chose her for a leading role in Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl (’03), starring alongside Johnny Depp and Orlando Bloom. The Pirates of the Caribbean went on to become a huge international box-office hit, bringing Keira’s fame to an international level.
Her latest appearance is as Guinevere in the new Disney adaptation of King Arthur’s tales. Hollywood seems to have taken a liking to her. As have Glamour magazine’s ’fashion analysts,’ who listed her as the fifth best-dressed female celebrity world-wide (Kate Moss came in number one, but she’s got about a decade of experience under the belt, if nothing else).
