Check out a retro-chic Keira Knightley on the cover of the Winter 2007/2008 issue of Strut magazine.

In the issue, the British actress discusses her celebrity life, love and her sky-rocketing career.

Keira on her mission to prove that she’s more than just a pretty face: “I had been doing Pirates of the Caribbean for about two years, and as much as that was extraordinary and amazing, I wanted to do something completely different. I think that’s why I chose to do [these two two films.] I did Silk first and then I had five days off and went straight onto Atonement. I wanted to play these characters. I wanted something totally different from the Pirate experience.”

Keira on nude scenes: “Some actors are absolutely not comfortable with taking their clothes off and nudity, and that’s completely fine, but I am. I’ve always been fine with it. No one is completely comfortable with her body, everyone has insecurities, but it’s not about that. It’s about, for me, my body, my face, my head, my mind — everything; that’s the tool that I have to work with. I’ve never had a problem using it. Anything I felt uncomfortable with I’ve always said no to. So I only do nudity if I’m completely comfortable with the surroundings and I’ve talked to the director and he’s explained to me exactly what he wants in the shot and I’m fine with it.”

Kiera Knightley rocked out in Hollywood with some new bangs and a fabulous pink, Rodarte dress at last night’s American premiere of her upcoming film, Atonement. What do we think of her new look?

We think she looks a lot better than the kinda-tranny looking, January Interview cover shot that has been recently released to the public.

While she spices it up with the half naked spreads for the magazine, in Atonement, Knightley has some completely nude scenes in the dramatic, period piece based on the British romance novel by Ian McEwan. The starlet recently admitted that she loves stripping down to nothing in her movies and find sex scenes “liberating.”

The film costars fellow Bristish actors, the splendiferous James McAvoy and Vanessa Redgrave. It has been getting praise from the critics, but how many people are going to buy tickets, just to see an X-rated shot of Keira?

Keira Knightley graces the the cover of the new issue of British Elle looking just divine as usual, well done!
