Celeb du Jour: Keira Knightley

We've had a soft spot for Keira Knightley ever since she sprinted her way
into our hearts in "Bend It Like Beckham" back in 2002. Nowadays, the
British starlet is trading soccer balls for period costumes with her latest
film "Atonement."

The rail-thin actress may resemble a lollipop these days, but her acting
skills are definitely beefing up. "Atonement" just premiered at the Venice
Film Festival and critics from across the globe are whispering about Keira's
odds for an Oscar.

The critics aren't the only ones singing Keira's praises, though. Her
"Pride & Prejudice" co-star and boyfriend Rupert Friend is a pretty big fan,
as well. The hot actor, who resembles a more buff version of Orlando Bloom,
is rumored to have popped the question to Keira last year.

What do you think of Keira Knightley? Is she engaged? Too skinny? Is she
going to win an Oscar? Tell us what you think!
