your daily gossip source…

keira knightley graces the cover of elle magazine this march.

she shares her upcoming projects, the importance of honesty and insights on criticism.

keira on her character in the misanthrope: “jennifer’s kind of a crazy mix of being a complete bitch—confident and terrifying—yet she’s incredibly young and is probably being exploited way more than she actually realizes.”

keira on criticism of her acting skills: “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 shit actress?’”

like an allergy bedding perhaps?

keira on surrounding herself with positive people: “you have to be selective about the people whose advice and opinions you take. i know [my parents] would never tell me i was shit because they were trying to hurt me. it would always come from a very sincere place.”

keira on her upcoming film last night: “when we were making it, the arguments on set were just amazing about whether mental infidelity is better or worse than physical infidelity. there was a huge gender divide on the question. every single woman said that mental infidelity is 10 times worse than [an emotionless assignation]. and most men i spoke with said that it’s the physical act that would be the ultimate betrayal.”
