Friday, November 09, 2007

London (ANI): Pride and Prejudice beauty Keira Knightley admits that she can be extremely moody at times. In fact, so moody can she be that she has been advised by family and friends not to read the newspapers as they turn her irate.

The British actress has slammed the media for coming up with opinionated news pieces about her. "I'm a moody bastard. Actually, I've been banned from reading newspapers because the way they're written angers me so much," The Sun quoted Knightley, as saying. "I get incredibly angry. It really f**ks me off. See, I have to calm down about it.

“If I want an opinion, I'll read the opinion part of the newspaper. I do not want it when I'm trying to get the facts. "What I hate is that they shove in your face - this is what you want to be. And you think, 'F**k that. I don't want it. Stop telling me I want to look like her. Stop telling me I want that life.' I don't," she added.
