English Rose
Keira Christina Knightley knew she was destined for stardom at an early age - after demanding an agent at the age of nine, she won her first major role!. She first came to the attention of movie-goers in Bend It Like Beckham - which showed off her footie skills and fantastic figure.
Hollywood soon came calling and Kiera became a A-list star while still only in her teens. Topping beauty polls and receiving Oscar nominations, she looks set to remain one of England’s most famous actresses.
Catch Keira in Pirates Of The Caribbean: Dead Man’s Chest at cinemas from 6 July.
