Keira Knightley doesn’t mind a little nudity —she went topless for Interview magazine a few months ago, but please do her a favor —no photoshop and don’t change the size of her breasts. The gorgeous British star talked to The Times of London about women’s bodies in media today.”I’ve had my body manipulated so many different times for so many different reasons, whether it’s paparazzi photographers or for film posters. And that [shoot] was one of the ones where I said: ‘OK, I’m fine doing the topless shot so long as you don’t make them any bigger or retouch.’ Because it does feel important to say it really doesn’t matter what shape you are.”
Knightley added, “I think women’s bodies are a battleground and photography is partly to blame. It’s much easier to take a picture of somebody without a shape; it simply is. Whereas actually you need tremendous skill to be able get a woman’s shape and make it look like it does in life, which is always beautiful. But our society is so photographic now, it becomes more difficult to see all of those different varieties of shape.”
Photoshop has run a little rampant. It’s gone way overboard, and sometimes it’s daunting to see just how the photos are manipulated. No one wants under eye circles on the cover of a mag but the person should still be recognizable!
