Keira Knightley Ready to Party at Golden Globes

Keira Knightley is ready to party – with her cast and crew of Atonement, which topped the list of Golden Globe nominees on Thursday, with seven nods, including one for herself and another for her leading man, James McAvoy, as well as for the WWII drama itself, as best picture.
"It's just so exciting that we've got nominated in so many categories," the British actress, 22, tells the Associated Press. "There's such a big group of us that can get to go together. It will be a real celebration for the film. It will be a wonderful night."
Atonement's supporting actress nominee Saoirse Ronan is all of 13
years old. The Dublin-born teen, currently in Pennsylvania to shoot her new movie The Lovely Bones, tells PEOPLE: "I started doing films two years ago [but] I never expected anything like this would happen. It's really lovely."

Staying Grounded
Regarding any career advice Knightley might have given her, Ronan says, "When we were in Venice [for the film festival], she let my dad know that there was going to be a lot of events and that I should keep myself grounded, and I think that's the best advice that anyone in Keira's position can give you."
As for the reaction from her school pals, Ronan says, "You really find out who your friends are, because they stick by you and they don't act all strange. But I have really supportive friends and no matter how long I've been gone, they treat me like I've been there all along."
Scottish actor McAvoy, 28, for whom Atonement provides a star-making role, says in a statement, "It's a huge thrill to see [the film] embraced by the" Hollywood Foreign Press Association.
Kudos to Viggo
Viggo Mortensen was also nominated for his dramatic leading role, in Eastern Promises. Congratulating his leading man, the film's director, David Cronenberg, said, "For me, there was only one actor who could powerfully convey the lead character Nikolai's many subtleties." The nomination for the 49-year-old actor is, according to Cronenberg, "perfect and exciting."
Not that all is merry and bright in Hollywood. With the strike by the Writers' Guild of America now more than a month old, and with no solution yet in sight, Grey's Anatomy nominee Katherine Heigl, 29, tells Entertainment Tonight, "I'm not crossing the picket line – not unless I'm contractually obliged to do so – which [with] the Golden Globes I'm not."
The Globes are due to be broadcast over NBC on Jan. 13.

Keira Knightley Shows Her Bangs
Keira Knightley is showing off the effects of her latest trip to the salon.Looking a little bit ‘ballerina-like,’ the “Pirates of the Caribbean” showed up at the premiere of her new film “Atonement” last night in Beverly Hills, California. She wore a Rodarte dress and some fun two-tone high heels.
Knightley is quickly becoming a new style icon for the up-and-coming generation. In the latest issue of “Interview,” the British babe appears in a seductive photo shoot, showing off her curves.
It’s a 1940’s pin-up-style layout, and apparently her tendency for near-nakedness is a point of joking among her friends. She told press, “My friends actually have bets on whether I can do a photoshoot and keep my clothes on – and I can’t at the moment. I find it vaguely liberating. You will probably see pictures of me soon walking down the street naked.”

Keira Knightley
biography, pictures and videosKeira Knightley is definitely more than a pretty face and a Natalie Portman look-alike. This is what the actress proved her viewers after making them love her in her highly-acclaimed performance as Elizabeth Swann in the Pirates of the Caribbean. Playing the role of a damsel who can save people in distress in the said flick made her a subject of envy of most actresses and teenage girls. Why? It is because her role gave her the right to share breathing space with gorgeous actors Orlando Bloom and Johnny Depp. Keira was born on March 22, 1985 in

Middlesex, England to parents who are both playwrights and actors. At an early age, having the same artist's genes that her parents have, Ms. Knightley has been gracing the European TV in her roles in several made-for TV movies. But it was in Star Wars: Episode 1 - The Phantom Menace that people all around the globe first took notice of her. Moreover, her career skyrocketed to success after being a part of the Disney movie Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl. Since then, she has been casted in blockbuster movies like Love Actually, which stars Liam Neeson, Hugh Grant, and Emma Thompson. Today, fans are waiting for the third sequel of the famous Disney flick titled Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End, with the same cast plus the returning Geoffrey Rush and Chow Yun Fat.
