Keira Knightley Archives

Keira Knightley leaves the London’s Comedy Theater and gives fans a memorable night as she signs autographs on Thursday (February 4).

The 24-year-old Pirates Of The Caribbean actress has been appearing in the updated production of Moliere’s 17 century satire The Misanthrope at the theater.

Keira was recently joined by Orlando Bloom as another actor who is confirmed to not return for Pirates of the Caribbean 4.

Most recently, actor Mackenzie Crook, who plays a hapless one-eyed pirate, has also stated that he will most likely not be returning as well.

Keira Knightley graces the cover of Elle magazine’s March 2010 issue, on newsstands Tuesday, February 16.

Here’s what the 23-year-old actress, who wore Donna Karan on the cover, had to share:

On her character in The Misanthrope: “Jennifer’s kind of a crazy mix of being a complete b—- - confident and terrifying - yet she’s incredibly young and is probably being exploited way more than she actually realizes.”

On criticism of her acting: “Oh, they still say that! Every time I do an interview with the English press, one of their questions is, ‘How do you feel knowing that everyone thinks you’re a s— actress?’”

On surrounding herself with people who will tell her the truth: “You have to be selective about the people whose advice and opinions you take. I know [my parents] would never tell me I was s— because they were trying to hurt me. It would always come from a very sincere place.”

Keira Knightley leaves the Comedy Theatre after her performance of The Misanthrope to a crowd of eager fans awaiting her outside on Monday (January 25).

The 24-year-old British beauty insists on having a bodyguard to protect her from strangers and overzealous fans. “Keira says she needs him,” one of the actress’s friends told the Telegraph. “They have become good friends.”

“I got such a shock, I couldn’t say anything and this guy took incredible offense and started hurling the most amazing abuse,” Keira said of one man who startled her and verbally abused her. “It’s a weird thing to have to deal with, not on a day-to-day basis, but it has happened enough to make me quite jumpy. I’ve never managed to get used to people recognizing me.”
