Keira Is the Ultimate Starlet

Yahoo! Entertainment made a poll among more than 1,600 movie fans to establish which is the biggest starlet that ever graced the big screen and the young Keira Knightley came first, to everybody's surprise.

A Yahoo! spokesperson said, after the results of the poll were made public that, quote, 'A starlet is an actress who people instantly think of as young, vivacious, stylish, popular and - most of all - talented. There are a few starlets jostling for space at the moment, but Keira is the one who embodies all those attributes. Scarlett [Johansson] may be the talk of Tinseltown but it's Keira's class that leads the pack'.

The 21-year-old 'Pirates of the Caribbean' who got her first Oscar nod for her part in 'Pride and Prejudice' managed to top even the 'Wizard of Oz' and 'A Star Is Born' star, Judy Garland, and another young starlet as famous as she is, Scarlett Johansson (currently starring in the drama 'The Black Dahlia').

The 'Star Wars' wonder child, now a fully grown woman, Natalie Portman, came in fourth, followed closely by another child-star, Shirley Temple. The number six position went to the temperamental Lindsay Lohan, with runner-ups as Brooke Shields and Mia Farrow.
