My goodness… if I haven’t heard a story of body dysmorphic disorder before, I have now.
Keira Knightley was quoted recently as saying that she is “twice the size of most other actresses” and “one of the largest actresses”.
The super-slim ‘Atonement’ star insists most of the women she auditions against are far smaller and skinnier than she is.
She said: “Weight is a big issue in Hollywood because I’m twice the size - height and everything else - of most of the girls who are going in to see the director for a part. When you realise that I am, at my size, one of the largest actresses there, you start to think, ‘I don’t think it’d be healthy for me to stay here much longer.’ “
So, she is mostly referring to seeing a director for a part in a movie, but still… does she not realize that she is extremely skinny? If what she says is true, there must be a gaggle of skeletons out there clamoring for movie parts.
