Keira Knightley Uncensored
Keira Christina Knightley is an English film actress and model. She began her career as a child and came to international prominence in 2003 after co-starring in the films Bend It Like Beckham and Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl.
Knightley has appeared in several Hollywood films and earned nominations for the Academy Award for Best Actress and Golden Globe Award for Best Actress for her role as Elizabeth Bennet in Joe Wright’s 2005 adaptation of Jane Austen’s novel Pride and Prejudice. Two years later she again was nominated for the Golden Globe Award for Best Actress, as well as the BAFTA Award for Best Actress in a Leading Role for her performance in Atonement.
In 2008, Forbes claimed Knightley to be the second highest paid actress in Hollywood, having reportedly earned $32 million in 2007, making her the only non-American on the list of highest paid actresses.
Knightley, who lives in London, is involved with her Pride & Prejudice co-star Rupert Friend. Knightley has stated she has no plans to be married in the near future. She previously dated Northern Irish fashion model Jamie Dornan.
Knightley has denied rumours she is anorexic, although she did say—after her appearance at the Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man’s Chest premiere led to media speculation that her extremely slender figure was due to an eating disorder—that her family has a history of anorexia. Knightley sued the Daily Mail after they claimed she lied about having anorexia; the article said that a teenage girl died from anorexia, indicating that Knightley’s physical appearance may have influenced her in some way. She was awarded a settlement.
In July 2006, Knightley said she has become a workaholic, detailing that “the last five years have blended into one. I can’t tell you what was last year and what was the year before” and specifying that she was “working too much” and was “quite frightened that if I continue at this rate I will start to hate what I love,” even suggesting that she would take a one-year break from acting to travel and focus on her personal life.

Shannyn Sossamon Uncensored
Hollywood has mirrored the Camelot in which Shannyn Sossamon found herself in her breakthrough role as the leading lady in A Knight’s Tale (2001). Shannyn, who credits her striking looks to an eclectic mix of French, Hawaiian, Dutch, Irish, Filipino and German was born Shannon Marie Kahoolani Sossamon in Honolulu, Hawaii.
At the age of three, Shannyn and her family moved to a new exotic locale: Reno, Nevada. At 17, promptly after high school graduation, she left her small town life for a career in dance in Los Angeles. While attending Dance Unlimited, Shannyn began her alternate career as a D.J. in local clubs.
Acting was not high on the young dancer’s priority list, aside from a series of commercials, not for lack of interest but for the fact that she was content with her life in L.A. as it was. It was in 1999, when Shannyn was helping a friend D.J. at a birthday party for Gwyneth Paltrow that a new chapter began in her fairy tale life. Francine Maisler, a casting director known for such films as The Usual Suspects (1995), spotted Shannyn. Shortly thereafter Shannyn found herself with the backing of an influential Hollywood name and a slew of auditions.
Many offers had no appeal to the established D.J. until A Knight’s Tale (2001) came along; she determined she wanted the lead role and after six call backs, beat out the competition. Admittedly, the dancer turned actress knew little of her Australian costar Heath Ledger but the two became friends during filming. Shannyn continues to D.J. every Tuesday night at a local club in L.A., but the rest of her time is filled with filming and travel. Hawaiian born but raised in Reno, Nevada, Shannyn Sossamon left her hometown the day after graduating high school for Los Angeles to pursue dance. Shortly thereafter, and while filling in as a DJ for a friend at party, she was spotted by casting director Francine Maisler - who introduced her to Brian Helgeland and for his film “A Knight’s Tale.
Determined for the lead role and a handful of auditions later, Sossamon was decidedly set as portraying the beautiful ‘Lady Jocelyn’ and starring opposite Heath Ledger. Most recently, she completed filming the independent film “Wristcutters,” about three persons journey in an afterlife for suicide victims - ‘Mikal’ (Sossamon), a beautiful hitchhiker, who is searching for the people in charge, as she only “accidentally” overdosed, meets ‘Zia’ (Patrick Fugit) and together they explore this strange afterlife and eventually fall in love. The film also co-stars Tom Waits. In 2002 she starred in “40 Days 40 Nights” opposite Josh Hartnett, and “The Rules of Attraction,” for director Roger Avary.
In 2003 Sossamon reunited with Ledger and they co-starred in “The Order” for director Brian Helgeland. Her credits include “Kiss Kiss Bang Bang,” “Chasing Ghosts” and “Undiscovered,” among others.

Abbie Cornish Uncensored
Abbie Cornish was born in Lochinvar, New South Wales, Australia, as the second of five children. But who’s counting? At the age of thirteen, she began taking jobs as a model, something that ugly teen girls can’t stake claim to. By the time she was sixteen, the leggy Aussie was juggling television acting roles and studying, with the intention of pursuing a career as a veterinarian. In 1999, Abbie was awarded the Australian Film Institute Young Actor’s Award for her role in the television show “Wildside” and was soon offered her first role in a feature film, The Monkey’s Mask.
This move convinced her that wearing a monkey’s mask was easier than cleaning up monkey poop and she ditched her plans to be an animal doc. At seventeen Cornish, traveled through the United States and Western Europe for six months, before returning to a blossoming acting career. This is a fact that has no bearing on anything, but how the mind does wonder what tricks a teenage hottie traveling in a foreign land could get into.
She received two awards for Best Actress in a Leading Role for the 2004 film, Somersault. Abbie was now rising to prominence. She was soon to receive widespread critical acclaim for her role in 2006’s Candy with Heath Ledger. Speaking of widespread, Candy marked her first full-fledged nude scene. Candy, indeed. Roles in the Russell Crowe stinker A Good Year and the Cate Blanchett snorer Elizabeth:The Golden Age, solidified her star status. Her role in Stop Loss became tabloid fodder when it was rumored she was bedding Reese Witherspoon’s soon-to-be ex Ryan Phillippe during the shoot. Abbie insisted the real story should have been what is that weird goose egg growing out of Phillippe’s forehead.
On August 3, 2007 it was announced that Abbie has been chosen as the new “Bond Girl” for the 22nd installment of the James Bond franchise.
In January 2010 Abbie was a cover girl on Vanity Fairs contrversial cover, where no girls of any other nationality were featured. This cover has caused a great uproar among people.
