Keira Knightley hit the red carpet last night for the premiere of her 5567686786th period piece, The Duchess. I can’t decide if I hate that dress or not. Not crazy about the tulle, but it does look very “Keira”, so I guess it works! The chunky heels were a nice touch.

 KeiraKnightley showed up in basic black for the Elle Style Awards in London yesterday.  She took home Best Actress for her role in Atonement.

 And Kate Hudson was also on the red carpet.  There are a ton of rumors going around right now that she’s pregnant; you can’t really tell in these photos but it does in a few others I’ve seen.  Who has she even been dating recently??

More February covers for ya! Keira Knightley and James McAvoy are on the cover of W magazine’s A-list issue and talking about their movie Atonement. Keira looks kinda scary in these pics; I’m not sure I like the photos or not. Anyways, check out the interview with the two of them below:

KEIRA KNIGHTLEY

ON BEING A STABLE AND CONFIDENT YOUNG ACTRESS… “From a very young age I realized that you didn’t get parts if you acted like a child. So even at seven I remember picking a way to behave, a way that worked. Though in my personal life I don’t think I’m particularly mature. I don’t particularly want to be mature!”

ON DIRECTORS WIDELY UNDERESTIMATING HER AS AN ACTRESS UNTIL VERY RECENTLY… “I was already so aware that that was how everybody felt. I think if you’re actually honest about it, then we can have a discussion, and I can actually do something. But if nothing is said, you’re going to go away with the same opinion, and I’m going to go away feeling s— about myself.”

ON HAVING TROUBLE CONVINCING DIRECTOR JOHN MAYBERRY TO LET HER AUDITION FOR THE LEAD IN THE JACKET (2005) WHICH SHE EVENTUALLY GOT… “He said to me very plainly, ‘I don’t think you can act. I don’t want you in this film.’”

ON PARTYING THE NIGHT BEFORE HER W INTERVIEW… “I tried to get pissed so I could sleep in, but I still woke up at eight. I’m so hungover.”

ON TAKING SIX MONTHS OFF IN EARLY 2007…“It got to the point where you just get tired, and then you start to forget what you love about what you do. I wanted to be able to say to my friends, ‘Yes, I will be there for your birthday.’ I was having that discombobulated feeling of being homesick but not knowing what I was homesick for.”

ON OSCAR EXPECTATIONS FOR THE FILM ATONEMENT…“If the film gets awards or anything, great, but if it doesn’t, it certainly doesn’t devalue the project.

 No comment on her dress and mismatched shoes, but I don’t really think that’s the best hair style for her face shape.  Oh well, even at her worst Keira looks better than most of us.
