Actress Keira Knightley has spoken out about the pressure put on her regarding her image.
The Pride and Prejudice star told Hello magazine how people in the media are very critical of her looks.
She said, "I do think I must have a nice face because I'm completely aware my face gets me work.
"But the problem is that if you happen to be someone who people think of as pretty, you also get so many people whose business it is to comment on your looks.
"I've been to photo shoots where the photographer has told me he'd kept my legs out of the shot so I don't need to worry about them - that of course makes you worry.
"Then I've had make-up artists who've told me they need to shade the top of my nose so it won't look so broken. I also got rejected from a job once because someone said I had a funny mouth.
"They are all things you start to focus on. You start thinking you're okay, then you have to go to some event and you remember you have a weird mouth, a broken nose and horrible legs."
