KEIRA KNIGHTLEY

Bombshell actresses offend in two ways. The first is when they claim they were geeks in high school. The second is when they prattle on about the media's promotion of unattainable body types while flaunting their bony décolletage on magazine covers. Keira Knightley is guilty on both counts. Even worse is the fact that the lantern-jawed Brit couldn't act her way out of a paper corset. Women's mags crowned the perpetual pouter the next big thing after Bend It Like Beckham and Pirates of the Caribbean, conveniently ignoring the fact that she had precious little to do with either film's success. It takes a startling lack of chops to make Orlando Bloom look like Brando.
