Keira Knightley doesn't have large breasts? Wha?
Actress Keira Knightley made news this week when Britain's Daily Mail reported that she wouldn't allow publicity photos to digitally enhance her breasts for her new movie "The Duchess."
Apparently, the crack marketing team behind 2004's "King Arthur" thought it would be a good idea to use sex to sell its violent telling of Camelot. After being given a C cup, Knightley said she didn't give a "[expletive deleted]" at the time.
But now she's putting her foot down. And I say good.
While I've always been a fan of hers, I've never been under the delusion that she has large breasts. And I can't imagine the target audience for "The Duchess" hasn't noticed the same thing in Keira's previous films.
But just in case you haven't seen her before (or even if you have), let's take a look at a brief photographic history of her resume, shall we:







Now, what can we conclude from these photos? Keira Knightley is one beautiful woman.
And what about her breasts? Well, they look fine to me.

She looks so pretty in "Love Actually." I freakin' love that movie.

ya know, honestly?,
as somebody who figure painted and sculpted for a couple of decades, (and who really loves the form, especially female form? (women are so much better as a design than men.)
Sometimes I just feel like standing on roof and screaming.
I mean, in the workplace?, 'guys,' make it a point to call attention to customers and such that have had work done, (particularly in the chest,) 'Bolt-Ons,' they call them. (Cretins... Cretins with hormones and testosterone...)
And what I don't get?
--What woman wants to attract a significant other who's so heavilly influenced by changing something via SURGERY --or who is so enamoured with 'a body part' at all?
I mean, we all have areas we're attracted to that we find pretty and erotic, --and it's differs from person to person, (I think that's healthy and normal.)
---but jeeze, talk about cartooning...
I've already mentioned how a friend of mine,
who's a surgeon
was telling me that here on the west coast, women want 'the girls' size C and up, --or you're not talking anything.
--Back east? Reduction
(often) to a C or less.
I don't think women back east 'downplay,' their sexualiyt... maybe they just carry it out differently?
But I mean, the obsession and fixation on this just pisses me off.
People often start out with the ability to look stunning, they already ARE stunning,
and so little of it actually has to do with 'this or that 'right' body part.'
--and they go doing all sorts of weird things because they're told that they have to have 'one thing changed or the other' to be appealing to some pack of drooling apes.
--and that's after starving themselves to being a walking ribcage...
AUGGGHHH!
Okay, so Keira isn't chesty... SO WHAT, what she's got is fine... (that's part of who the woman IS.)
---in case nobody's noticed?
Her eyes splay a bit too... BIG DEAL.
She's stunning (to me) because she's simply who she is, and she's always been a pretty kid.
I say: Good for her, tell the CGI 'boob boys' to pound salt.
I don't know who started it, But it has to stop.
Maybe I'm alone in this, but to me there is nothing more sexy about someone,
--than when they're comfortable with themselves,
look healthy,
smile once in a while
and are simply engaging and being 'themself.'
Big, Small, Tall as a giraffe, flat as a board, more curves than Laguna Seca... whatEVER...
People need to stop 'changing,' to 'become attractive' and just 'be themselves,' instead.
This is horrible thing to put on a woman, (who get hit with this the hardest, -and at the earliest ages.)
People are so unique and beautiful, and need to be appreciated for who they are, not 'what folks wanta see.'
Any guy chasing a girl because of 'body parts,'
--kick'em in his 'body parts,' and run, FAR.
(okay, rant over.)

I fully agree with Eric, uh i mean WT.
i work with a woman who is absolutely gorgeous. beautiful face, stunning body and brains to match! all of this AND a sparkling personality. She always appeared to be the ideal woman until she decided she wasnt 'big' enough.
no matter how much me and our co-workers tried to talk her out of it, her mind was made up.
she went right out and used her student loans to become 'enhanced'.
sucks.
now shes all those things i mentioned plus 2 heaping melons on top that look and feel horrible.
she couldnt be happier.
what is wrong with state of womens mental health?
i mean, i am above average in the cup size so i guess i will never understand that desire for more but there are many things on my body that could be surgically altered but why?
i like me just as i am.
i wish more women felt the same.

The only problem she has is that she is a bit to thin. If she gaind about 5-10 pounds she would look perfect. Other than that she looks good the way she is.

She tends to go up and down 5 or 10 pounds anyway. I think, like all women it's stress ( maybe work related). She's always been very very thin so a loss or gain of any weight is more obvious on her slight frame.
I think she's gorgeous, and a lot of that has to do with her 'flaws'.
Like WT points out... it's ridiculous to continue to change based on some 'ideal' vision. Wonder what would happen if women put all of that time and money and effort into improving their self esteem, mind, soul, heart? Wow! A bunch of naturally beautiful women walking around with something interesting to say about someone other than themselves.
FWIW, I don't think beautiful women have nothing interesting to say... I just think we ( I'm not alone in falling into the female trap) spend far too much time working on the outsides, when it's the inside that needs an overhaul.
AND... the photoshopping of a perfectly beautiful girl does not help us move into that direction at all.
