Knightley Settles Libel Lawsuit

Well done, Keira Knightley! Fuck those nosy assholes - what's her eating problems (if she has any, that is) to them anyway?

i love keira... im really not sure if she has an eating disorder.. maybe people think that because shes flat chested! but who cares?! shes gorgeous!!!!

I Love Keira Knightley - because:

She thinks Johnny Depp is the sexiest actor she has ever played with.
She thinks Johnny Depp is better kisser then Orlando Bloom!

Go keira!

who she staring at? it scares me but it ok

Wow, she's beautiful; eating disorder or not.

Oh, also talented, of course.

i am in the entertainment business and i agree with those of you who say that if she doesnt have a disorder than why is she issuing a lawsuit because that does make sense but the world of entertainment will come down on you for everything and after a while you get sick of it and with all the commotion about weight in the entertainment business the fact that somebody says that you have an eating disorder when you really dont will upset you especially if you are trying to steer clear of that frame of mind ( im too skinny or im too fat) keira is a really great actress and if she wants to make it clear that she DOES NOT have an eating disorder then why stop her... and honestly for knightley 6000 isnt alot so shes kinda being generous i guess...

but i agree, it hardly seems worth it with what she is probably earning

Libel concerns the written word and material broadcast on television or radio. Slander concerns the spoken word.

its called slander, spreading malicious/damaging rumour that are unfounded or untrue.

If you have the cash to take it to court & the judge agrees, the people who spread the story have to pay the victim damages to the sum of what would the judge see's fit.

Ie a Lawyer who was deemed as loosing her job due to a rumour circulated by work colleagues that proved to be unfounded, would be awarded a number of years pay equivalent or more "damages" as compensation to the damage to her career by the judge, to be paid by the party deemed as responsible for the spread of the rumour. (a lawyers salary could be £50,000 a year easy, so time that by 5 years, & you get the idea how expensive slander can be & sometimes the payout could be just)

though in this case, it seems the only people who made anything out of it all, was the lawyers paid by bothsides to go to court lol.

JHOSEHF18.. it's lame to copy someone else's comment simply because you don't have a firm grasp on the English language. laaaaaaaaaame.
