Keira Knightley Used to Be Called a 'Whore' By the Paparazzi

Keira Knightley and her husband James Righton step out and head to a local cafe for lunch on Tuesday afternoon (February 17) in Hollywood.

The 29-year-old pregnant actress recently opened up about her experience with paparazzi when she was just 18 and starring in Pirates of the Caribbean.

“Having 20 to 30 men who you don’t know on a 24-hour surveillance outside your house calling you a ‘whore’ every time you leave the door to try to get a reaction from you is quite a difficult thing to deal with,” Keira said (via E! Online).

“It was a time when there was a lot of money for pictures of women crying or of women in some state of undress,” Keira added. “You’d walk down he street and you’d have men trying to get under your skirt to take pictures up your skirt and all the time calling you a ‘whore’ or all the time spitting at you or all the time trying to get a reaction from the guy you were with because it would make the price of that photograph quadruple.”

FYI: Keira is wearing Salvatore Ferragamo sunglasses.
