Blind Item #5

This foreign born almost A list mostly movie actress who seems like she has made a career of playing anyone from the 18th and 19th century was walking a red carpet in the last few weeks and lasted about 30 seconds before she had to head off to the bathroom for some coke. She has always enjoyed coke, but she is out of control. She spent way more time in the bathroom than she did at the actual event. I'm surprised she has any teeth left after all the grinding she does.

Totally Kiera.

VIPblonde said...

@ethorne You got it!

auntliddy said...

Hate to hear it.

Anna Nonymous said...

God she's soooo skinny. Not healthy looing at all. That must suck to be STARVING all the time.

Mama Abroad said...

She was also my first thought but didn't Enty have a picture of her not that long ago where he commented how healthy she seemed?

Unknown said...

Easy Easy!

She's actually not that skinny. Sure she's got the top half of a teen boy, but she's got a pretty nice ass!

Unknown said...

Keiraaaaa.

GURL, you were on your way to the A-list. Don't stop now!

Kelly said...

Yep. Keira

Anonymous said...

Helena Bonham Carter...

ethorne said...

It's hard to think of a non-period movie Keira was in.

DewieTheBear said...

Bend it Like Beckham is the only one I can come up with, ethorne.

She was so wonderful in Anna Karenina.

Izzie said...

Defn Keira. Good job, ethorne!

FWIW, she's *always* been on the thin side, not coke skinny, just naturally slender. The coke may just be making her naturally slender frame gaunt. :( I loved her in Pride & Prejudice and Atonement. (Plus she got to kiss Colin Firth AND Ian McEwan. Le double sigh.)

Helena Bonham Carter...

Keira all the way.

"Bend it like Beckham" and "Love Actually" are the only 2 movies I can think of where she was modern day.

Helena Bonham Carter...

Ms Cool said...

Aw, man. I hope she gets help. I love her Pride and Prejudice and think she is a very compelling actress.

annanaannnaaaa said...

Yes, very few movies set in present day. The most recent I can recall is Seeking a Friend For the End of the World. She was my first thought.

mynerva said...

She was in Domino as well....

Unknown said...

Isn't Keira going to be in a blockbuster with Chris Pine soon? She really could have been a superstar if she she didn't shun blockbusters!

msgirl said...

Aw, this makes me sad. I think she's just naturally thin - remember Bend It like Beckham, still very young, and very very thin. I've known some people like that. But this makes me sad.

Cocaine is so addictive, you really feel you're on top of the world. Fortunately I could never afford it, but I remember friends got some and we were snorting for 2 weeks, it was rough stopping when it all ran out!

Erika said...

It says mostly movie.
When has Keira been on tv?

lc said...

Also 'Never Let Me Go'

By: Elsa said...

Bend it like Beckham. Love Actually. :)

Izzie said...

@Erika - Kiera has done TV movies & mini-series.

Here is her IMDB page.

Seachica said...

I just rewatched Bend It Like Beckham this weekend, and she looked so good there. I still will never understand why she was the one who made A list from that movie, but I look at her then and now, and it just makes me sad. I get the feeling that she is trying to have a different career (serious BBC type) than what her talent would lend itself to.

msgirl said...

Seachica - I've loved Parminder ever since then, far more than Keira.

Phillygrrl said...

See, this makes me sad. I've always like Keira.

Catarina said...

For some reason Keira doesn't seem the coke using type to me. And she was in movies whose time period was way before the 18th century like King Arthur. But in this list (http://www.imdb.com/list/1MQw0mLANco/) only Keira and Helena are almost A list and fit the blind.

Anonymous said...

keira did the pirates of caribbean movies. some the highest grossest movies in the top 20. she did her stint

im with her on the coke thing tho

parissucksliterally said...

Keira Knightly for sure.

Snapdragon said...

@Izzie: (Plus she got to kiss Colin Firth AND Ian McEwan. Le double sigh.)

Er. What? The only thing she has starred in with Colin Firth (besides Love, Actually, in which they didn't kiss) is the short Steve, and she most definitely did not kiss him in that either. He played her weirdo neighbour.

I think you're confusing the 1995 BBC mini (with Mr Firth and Jennifer Ehle as Lizzie) with the 2005 feature film (with Matthew McFayden). Or I'm forgetting something. (IMDB seems to be down, so I can't double-check.)

laura said...

She plays modern day in The Hole... which is a deliciously trashy british teen thriller too fun not to warch on netflix instant...

Izzie said...

@Snapdragon, you're right. I loved Colin Firth so much as Mr Darcy and Keira as Lizzie, it's like fan-fic movie mash-up in my brain. :b

CJ said...

She is so cute. She's married right? Where was her husband. I feel like he would be mentioned if this was about her.

Snapdragon said...

@Izzie, lulz! :-D Though sorry, JEhle is the perfect Lizzie to me :)

Rosemary Young said...

Also @Izzie, Ian McEwan wrote the novel "Atonement" but James McAvoy starred in the movie adaptation. Different Mc! :-)

Izzie said...

Oh, FFS, Monday and I need coffee because I am a damn tired fool! I SERIOUSLY did type James McAvoy and then thought, no, it was Ewan McGregor. So I typed the author's name instead. Good grief.

Thirty lashes, I'll take 'em.

FrenchGirl said...

what red carpet did Kiera K recently?

Topper Madison said...

It must be a generational thing because Helena Bonham Carter was the ONLY one to pop into my head.

Anonymous said...

Also Domino the bounty hunter one. But yes this has got to be Keira

Way to go Ethorne!

Rhody said...

I thought the "actual event" was a hint to Love Actually

Jessie said...

Even I got this one!

Oh goodness Izzie, I sentence you to a marathon of BBC's Pride and Prejudice and selection of teas and coffee.

Snapdragon said...

@Jessie, I am dying with laughter. Sentence me! SENTENCE ME! (in manner of Monty Python and the Holy Grail)

Betsy said...

I just rewatched P&P, and I remember thinking "Keira's teefs are really weird." Totes her.

Yes, teefs.

Unknown said...

"30 seconds" makes be think of Jared Leto, 30 Seconds to Mars frontman, and Keira Knightley is listed as "Family and Elite" on his website...so I would say Keria Knightley for sure.

News said...

Helena Bonham Carter…
not Keira

Mango said...

I adored her as Lizzie in 2005's Pride and Prejudice. If I found a magic lamp I swear wish number three would be that 2005 P&P would be a miniseries because it just isn't long enough for me. And Matthew Macfadyen...yes please!

Sherry said...

My first thought was also Keira but I'm also suspecting it's HBC.

(OMG! Did anyone check out Helena's IMDB list of projects? She's playing Liz Taylor in a TV movie called Burton and Taylor.)

Sorry for the diversion. I can't find any pics of Keira on the red carpet but HBC was at the Oscars in Feb.

Jenn said...

Helena Bonham Carter is who I thought of as well. This would also excuse her crazy fashion sense. WTF is she wearing? She's high. Oh, well that explains EVERYTHING!

lostathome said...

Just to be different, Mia Wiasiakowska?

Unknown said...

I also said Helena Bonham Carter.

Pip said...

Helena has always dressed like she shopped for her clothes in dumpster by an old folks home. It's not a recent thing. Lately she's been in tons of movies set in the present. I can only think of a few non period pieces Knightly has starred in.

csproat said...

Maggie Smith!!

Moonmaid said...

I still don't think Keira Knightly. Just don't get that vibe from her. Has she been on the red carpet recently? Her recent fashion shots - Vogue I think? - were really good.

Goodnight said...

OMG thank goodness. My first thought when reading that blind was 'Nooo, not Cate!'. Now I will continue to believe she is awesome.

delia jones said...

Obviously Helen Mirren.

Hegg said...

I was thinking Abbie Cornish.

JMS said...

Helen Mirren was my first thought.

ecua said...

Yes! Ehle is a far better actress than Knightly, any day of the week!!

ElRod said...

Heh heh... I can just picture her sneaking away and chopping up a line in her nun uniform while filming sister act!

ElRod said...

Ok so my first thought was Cate Blanchett... don't know why, to be honest :/
