Knightley slams skinny Hollywood


Keira Knightley has spoken out against the unrealistic standards for women in Hollywood, insisting she is curvy compared to who she is up against for auditions. "I'm twice the size, height and everything else of most of the other actresses who are going for an audition. It's mad, isn't it, when you realize that at my size I'm one of the largest there?" the actress says. "It's at the point you start to say, 'I don't think it'd be healthy for me to stay here much longer.' Are we surprised that there are people out there who feel they have to lose weight? It's shocking for young girls. There is a lot of pressure - it's like you've got to be perfect."
