Keira Knightley doesn't eat junk food. Maybe that's why she's so slim and trim. Maybe it isn't that she's anorexic at all, as media rumors might suggest.

"I don't eat junk," says the 22-year-old actress. "I cook. I go to farmers markets in London and cook really good sort of organic foods."

Knightley credits her figure to good genes and a good healthy diet. She's no gym rat, though. The roles she plays in period pieces like Pirates of the Caribbean and Pride & Prejudice tend to keep her in shape.

"The corsets are a workout. Heavy dresses and all that," she says.

Do you buy Knightley's explanation for her weight? I tend to trust what she says, but only because I recently stopped eating junk food and sweets and witnessed 15 pounds melt right off my body. Thinness isn't always caused by an eating disorder. Sometimes it's caused by ditching the junk.

Keira Knightley has won her lawsuit against the British newspaper "The Daily Mail" for running a picture of the actress alongside the story headline "If Pictures Like This One of Keira Carried a Health Warning, My Darling Daughter Might Have Lived." Knightley's lawyers say the reason she chose to pursue this was because the article made it seem that she was somehow personally responsible for the death of the 19 yr old girl featured, who had lost a battle with anorexia. Knightley contends that she does not have an eating disorder, and that her weight as an adult has never fluctuated by more than a few pounds.

The court awarded Knightley £3,000 ($5,965) and she plans to donate it along with £3,000 of her own to BEAT, a charity that helps people with eating and mental disorders.
