I really, really like Keira Knightley.

I admit, it has something to do with her role as Elizabeth Swann in the Pirates of the Caribbean trilogy, and that she's one of the few actresses today that defends the all-natural svelte size-zero, albeit frighteningly skeletal, female body fiercely, without giving in to the anorexia accusations.

Keira-esque idiosyncracies, like her trademark pout and the way she tilts her chin out when she poses on the red carpet make her all the more unique and adorable... she's nothing like the other rising starlets, with a mere 22 years of age, she's in a league of her own...great movies under her belt and having starred with various amazing actors Clive Owens, Colin Firth, Hugh Grant and Jonathan Rhys Meyers; and with Johnny Depp, Orlando Bloom, Bill Nighy and Liam Neeson at least twice. I also love the fact that she looks uncannily like Natalie Portman in some angles...and she's Natalie's Decoy Queen in the Star Wars series.

 

You can say I'm nearly living my life vicariously through Keira...especially with this Vogue photoshoot in KENYA! Africa's wilderness scenery rocks the animal-print socks off any fashionista who ain't afraid of getting her boots dirty.

Pirates Back in Black

How cool does Keira Knightley look in this picture? Her bronzer/blush made her look a little swashbucklin'ly bruised and ashen in the face and her hair wasn't this shade of blonde in Pirates I and II. But who cares, everyone can't wait for At World's End to come to us! I must say, the metallic armor-like costumes are totally drowning Keira's emaciated frame and she looks pretty weird in some of them. Johnny Depp and Orlando Bloom are back again. (Stop screaming! Yes!) And then there's a bonus for us all, Chow Yun-Fatt. *wink*

A must-watch summer blockbuster. Ooh, can hardly contain my bubbling excitement. Aye!
