Keira Knightley Is "Twice the Size" of Most Hollywood Actresses

Keira Knightley has recently claimed that she is "twice the size" of most Hollywood actresses. This may mean one of two things. She either suffers from a severe, undiagnosed eye condition that makes her see herself about 10 times larger than she really is, or she's simply delusional. And while I like Keira too much to want to believe there's something physically wrong with her, her eyesight may be easier to correct in the long run than checking her in for a psychiatric examination and further treatment.

Just have a look at what 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". Is that regular Hollywood or fantasy, midget Hollywood? Is there something wrong with my eyesight, too? Keira is so thin, and she's come under so much scrutiny for her size zero and disturbingly small frame, that she'd probably finally cracked - or she's been undergoing hypnosis to make herself believe she's in fact heavier than she really is.

"When you realize 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". This is downright ridiculous. I mean, just plain stupid. Keira has always denied accusations that she's suffering from anorexia, even though she admitted that this illness runs in her family.

"I've got a lot of experience with anorexia" she previously revealed. "My grandmother and great-grandmother suffered from it, and I had a lot of friends at school who suffered from it. I know it's not something to be taken lightly and I don't". Keira even went as far as to sue a British newspaper that accused her of being anorexic and she was awarded £3.000 in damages. But from here to stating that she is in fact twice the size of Hollywood divas there's a big leap. So, prepare yourselves for a change, as we'll either be seeing Keira wearing glasses or we'll hear she was assigned to a mental care facility.

There is of course a much simpler explanation. She knows she is in fact incredibly thin and yet she wants to make it look like she believes differently about herself. But that would be hypocrisy - and we can't imagine darling Keira sinking that low, can we? Better stick with the "big mouther delusional" theory then - it definitely makes a lot more sense.

I have friends who are as tall as Keira Knightley. They look wonderful at size 8, 6, and 4. At 2 they start to look too thin. I am a 00 and quite short. Everyone has weight issues. Its hard to overcome. I want her to pull through.
