Name: Keira Knightley
Age: 18 years old
Biography: Keira was born to Will Knightley (also an actor) and Sharman MacDonald (an actress-turned-playwright) on the 22nd of March, 1985.
She first asked her parents for an agent at the tender age of three, but they refused, not wanting their daughter to follow them onto the stage. Keira kept at them, and they finally gave in when she was six. However, her parents still had a few tricks up their sleeves. As part of the deal, Keira, who is dyslexic, had to study through the school holidays, and she was only permitted to work on productions if they didn't interfere with her education.
In 1994, at the age of nine, she completed her first movie, starring as Natasha Jordan in Moira Armstrong's 'A Village Affair'. Following this, she played a number of small roles in other productions. Her first high profile role came in 1999, when she played the part of Sabe, the decoy queen in Star Wars Episode I. Her part in the film was kept secret in the lead up to the much anticipated release, and Natalie Portman was promoted as having played the roles of both the real and decoy queens so as not to spoil the surprise. A lot of fans still think Portman played both roles.
Since then, she has completed an impressive array of films, including the made-for-TV movie 'Princess of Thieves', the series 'Oliver Twist', and the thriller 'The Hole'. She also played a small role in 'Deflation'. Keira's 'breakthrough' role came with Gurinder Chadha's 'Bend It Like Beckham', which was an unexpected hit worldwide. In order to play the part, she endured 20 weeks of tough football practice - her coach, who had trained top players, declared her more naturally talented than Michael Owen. With the success of Bend It Like Beckham came a flurry of roles. She stepped into Julie Christie's shoes for the controversial remake of the classic 'Dr. Zhivago', played Louise in 'Pure', and she is currently starring in "Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl which is still in theatres.

My Thoughts: Keira Knightley is one of the most beautiful woman that I have ever had the pleasure to lay my eyes on. She can be cute, pretty, elegant, sexy, athletic, just about anything that she wants to be. I first saw her in "Bend It Like Beckham" and while the movie wasn't that great I thought that one of the great things in it was Keira. Then I saw the amazing "Pirates of the Caribbean" which also starred the young lady and I knew that she was not only easy on the eyes but could act as well. Currently she is burning hot both figuratively and literally I mean, she has several high profile films coming soon and she shows no signs of slowing down. The good news for Keira Knightley is that her roles just keep getting bigger and bigger, and her star brighter and brighter. Rest assured that we will be seeing a lot more of Keira in the future and that if everything goes well she'll be around for a very long time.
