Keira Knightley combined the latest trends with Ray Ban classics as she arrived in Venice yesterday. She wore a beautiful dress for the photocall of her period peice Atonement which opened up the Venice Film Festival. The buzz has already started about her performance but that being said, Keira does all that she can to avoid reading what the media has to say about her, for better or for worse. She said,
"Once you become famous you get completely dehumanized. I think people forget there is a person in there trying to deal with it. Partly the way you deal with it is by not reading, not looking and seeing any of it and burying your head in the sand. It is the only path to sanity."
We know Keira has dealt with some pretty bad backlash from the media about her weight, so we don't blame her for wanting to stay away from it. We just hope it doesn't make her quit acting altogether, because we'd miss her on the big screen.
Lots more of Keira along with Vanessa Redgrave, James McAvoy and more so read more

she looks painfully thin.
1Sigh. Why are Scots always too cute?
2her head is MASSIVE.
3JAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAMES!
4UGH that second big pic above hurts to look at. She needs some taco bell, STAT. That dress is beautiful, though.
5I know its been said before, but she seriously is waaay too skinny!
6i think she might topple over under the weight of her cranium.
7She is very skinny and that's the truth. And she can quit acting she didn't make much of a difference in acting anyway so she won't be missed.
8Even though Keira doesn't care, I think she needs a sandwhich right now.
9Her head looks so massive because her body is too small. The human body wasn't mean to be skin and bones. I HATE THOSE SUNGLASSES! I wish they would just be gone.
10Atonement was such an intense book. I'll be interested to see how it's adapted to the screen.
11I like Keira's dress here but her hair needed styling. It's so stringy looking.
no matter what she says there's no denying she could stand to gain a few pounds. the girl looks painfully skinny.
12And she's not that hot in fact she's not pretty at all. That head though is pretty large
13The second pic at the top is really odd. I know she says that she is healthy, but I wonder.
14I don't blame her for ignoring the media. It is hard enough for ANYONE to balance their lives, let alone in the spotlight.
15She's always been skinny, i don't mind, i think she looks gorgeous!!!!
16Love her nailpolish too
WAY too skinny here.
17That dress is really nice. She is one of my favorite actresses!!
18I feel for her, my sister has the same body type, and trust me she eats like a pig, and she gets really tired of people telling her to eat all the time, mostly because she does and its not her fault that she's naturally thin I'm sure its the same for keira...
19Keira was thin not skinny that her haed was like a lollipop, compare her before photos and the ones now, she definitely lost quite a bit of weight.
20It's the same way for me, I've always been skinny and I hate it when people say dumb stuff like that. I eat just as much as anyone else, sometimes more. But I like Keira I think she's down to earth and keeps it real.
21She looks a little like Rachel Weisz in these pics.
22can't stand keira
23plus she's a dumb ho with absolutely no depth.
24i like her
25She's always been thin!
26Better than being obese like more than half of America.
And no she doesn't need to eat a bunch of greasy fast food.
Some people are naturally thin just like some are fat.
She's always been thin!

i agree with another commenter, if she just stopped acting...no one would notice.
28Fashionstar me too! I eat like a pig sometimes, but to no avail. I know Keira is skinny, but I think she's a bit too skinny here. I like to think I'm proportionate for my height. Something does not look right here...
29She looks like she is sick! She maynot care what anyone thinks of her but she has to look in the mirror and understand why people think something is wrong?
30I don't think enything,Keira.......
31Too skinny....
I really really used to lvoe this girl, but she is looking so skinny now-a-days...I just don't know.. :S
32she looks so skinny!!!
33I kinda agree with Keira but I think she looks hideous in that dress, though. Ridiculous, actually. But it's a beautiful dress for a normal body.
34She needs a hairbrush and a hamburger by the looks of that second pic. But I'm sure she just has a "quick metabolism"... yeah right.
35she lo0ks great, she could get a few extra lbs on but eather way, shes beautiful
36Please eat, think of all the little girls who will take you as a role model
37I agree she's on the smaller side of things, but she's always been a skinny girl. Her bone structure is smaller than most so she's never going to be a "bigger" girl. My cousin is about the same size a Keira, judging from the photos, and she's always been that way. While I was struggling with my weight in high school, she could eat WHATEVER she wanted and it wouldn't go anywhere.
She could probably stand to gain 5 pounds, but I don't think she's deathly skinny.
38She is way tooooooooooo skinny!!!!! Someone give that girl a burger or something
39she gets thinner n thinner day by day.. whatever, i love her bag. haha
40She does look painfully thin, but if you see Bend it Like Beckham, she has always been super skinny with a six-pack. Standing hunched in the middle like a supermodel doens't help, though!
41can't wait to see James in Wanted
42she looks waaaay skinnier and frailer than victoria BECKHAM BUT SHE GETS LESS sh!te in general FOR IT! oh well its da way the tables turn
btw i love her on film...real life not so much..hmm
43Denial ain't just a river in Egypt! I firmly believe she is suffering from an eating disorder I don't care what excuses she makes for her weight. I've seen too many friends deny it for years and end up a hospital. She wasn't a rail like this when she first started making films.
44that dress is gorgeous!
45BOOO...where is Parminder Nagra...she's not a lollipop and she's way prettier and talented than this gourd-head
46Keira has looked a bit heavier, but it could just be that earlier in her career she had more of her baby fat. Also, she's said that she ate protein bars and protein shakes in order to "bulk up" for King Arthur.
I am naturally thin and I've been teased about it since I was a child, and it's still a struggle to ignore the teasing I get. I don't understand why people can't be more accepting of thin people, rather than always accusing them of not eating.
She *really* should stop doing that waist-slimming pose, though.
47she is incredibly thin, but as long as shes healthy who cares, no one goes around saying wow they are really fat, and thats just as bad if not worse than being thin. i like keira, she does'nt feel the need to be what people want her to be, shes just a normal girl. she looks gorgeous ^
48i think she looks fabulous. i would love to be that small
49that dress is fabulous. Her hair and makeup are terrible. She looks like she rolled out of bed after a 3 day binge and put on some red lipstick. And as far as her wieght goes. I think its a loose loose situation when you are celeb. If you are smaller than a size 4 people say you are anorexic, if you are bigger than a size for then Jenny Craig starts scouting you for thier next series of commercials. Shes not too skinny, yes shes thin, but you probably would be too if you had that kind of pressure on your shoulders.
