Keira Knightley Loves To Pose Naked
Keira Knightley in her interview for the Vogue says that she is trying to ‘have her cake and eat it’ by posing naked for advertisers while at the same time demanding privacy.
Miss Knightley has in the past been brutally honest about her body shape, particularly her lack of cleavage. Now she revealed her anger at being criticised for being too thin.
‘When I was 17, 18, 19, I felt incredibly insecure, I went through a period of thinking I looked weird and too skinny, and that’s ten times worse when you’re being written about.’
The campaign, for the Coco Mademoiselle fragrance, also includes a glamorous 60-second cinema commercial, shot by Atonement director Joe Wright, which features Miss Knightley slipping out of the bowler hat outfit into a crimson dress, dashing across Paris and flirting with a mysterious stranger.
The Chanel adverts are the second time she has appeared nude for a photo shoot, after the Vanity Fair cover by renowned photographer Annie Leibovitz, in which she posed alongside American actress Scarlett Johansson and designer Tom Ford.
Keira Knightley explained: ‘You’re too young to drink in America and you’re on your own, and you don’t know anyone and you can’t drive, so you’re sitting in your hotel room and you’re just watching television – maybe even a programme about how lucky you are.’
