A wet and miserable Keira Knightley bids a quick farewell to a friend after getting caught in the pouring rain outside of her Soho London home on Thursday afternoon.
Meanwhile, it seems the 22-year-old British starlet will soon be singing in the rain. Keira has recorded three songs for her new film The Edge Of Love.
It’s the first time the actress has used her singing voice for a movie soundtrack — she’s previously admitted it’s not her strong point.
The movie is set for release in Autumn 2008. It looks unlikely Keira will launch a pop career alongside her film work — though we would love to see it!

She’s been 22 for 7 years now. Give me a break.
This must be a joke she is annoying enough when she speaks.
She must be hoping to break Jennifer Lopez guiness record by having a number one movie and record the same week.
She was born in 1985.
And its like everyone wants to be a Rock Star, and this is how YOU can be one also!
I’m through with standing in line
to the clubs i’ll never get in
It’s like the bottom of the ninth
and I’m never gonna win
This life hasn’t turned out
quite the way I want it to be
(tell me what you want
I want a brand new house
on an episode of Cribs
And a bathroom I can play baseball in
And a king size tub big enough
for ten plus me
(yeah,so what you need)
I’ll need a, a credit card that’s got no limit
And a big black jet with a bedroom in it
Gonna join the mile high club
At thirty-seven thousand feet
(Been there done that)
I want a new tour bus full of old guitars
And my own star on Hollywood Boulevard
Somewhere between cher and
James Dean is fine for me
(So how ya gonna do it?)
I’m gonna trade this life for fortune and fame
I’d even cut my hair and change my name
[CHORUS]
‘Cause we all just wanna be big rockstars
Live in hilltop houses driving fifteen cars
The girls come easy and the drugs come cheap
We’ll all stay skinny cause we just won’t eat
And we’ll hang out in the coolest bars
In the VIP with the movie stars
Every good gold digger’s
Gonna wind up there
Every Playboy bunny
with her bleach blonde hair
and well..
Hey hey I wanna be a rockstar
Hey hey I wanna be a rockstar
I wanna be great like Elvis without the tassels
Hire eight body guards that love to beat up assholes
Sign a couple autographs
So I can eat my meals for free
(I have a quesadilla… on the house)
I’m gonna dress my ass
with the latest fashion
Get a front door key to the Playboy mansion
Gonna date a centerfold that loves to
blow my money for me
(So how ya gonna do it?)
I’m gonna trade this life
For fortune and fame
I’d even cut my hair
And change my name
‘Cause we all just wanna be big rockstars
Live in hilltop houses driving fifteen cars
The girls come easy and the drugs come cheap
We’ll all stay skinny cause we just won’t eat
And we’ll hang out in the coolest bars
In the VIP with the movie stars
Every good gold digger’s
Gonna wind up there
Every Playboy bunny
with her bleach blonde hair
And we’ll hide out in the private rooms
With the latest dictionary
in today’s who’s who
We’ll get you anything
with that evil smile
Everybody’s got a
drug dealer on speed dial
well..
Hey hey I wanna be a rockstar
I’m gonna sing those songs
that offend the censors
Gonna pop my pills
from a pez dispenser
Get washed-up singers writing all my songs
Lip sync ‘em every night so I don’t get ‘em wrong
Well we all just wanna be big rockstars
Live in hilltop houses driving fifteen cars
The girls come easy and the drugs come cheap
We’ll all stay skinny cause we just won’t eat
And we’ll hang out in the coolest bars
In the VIP with the movie stars
Every good gold digger’s
Gonna wind up there
Every Playboy bunny
with her bleach blonde hair
And we’ll hide out in the private rooms
With the latest dictionary
in today’s who’s who
We’ll get you anything
with that evil smile
Everybody’s got a
drug dealer on speed dial well..
Hey hey I wanna be a rockstar
Hey hey I wanna be a rockstar
She’s been 22 for almost a year. In Britain all birth certificates are publically available so you can even look hers up on the net. So claiming her age is something else only makes you look stupid.
If she’s “miserable” how come she looks quite happy in the pictures?
DO SOME FUCKING RESEARCH!!!!!!!!
SHE DOESN’T LIVE ANYWHERE NEAR SOHO - SHE LIVES IN WEST LONDON - SOHO IS CENTRAL LONDON - UR SUCH A SHIT TALKER ARASTO OR WHATEVER THE HELL UR NAME IS.
I watched Sense and Sensibility for the second time on cable the other night. I can’t help it, I loved her in the movie. That said, I can’t imagine what kind of singer she could possibly be nor am I interested in finding out.
i like her as an actress. we don’t need another manufactured pop singer.
The character she plays in the film is a singer.
She recorded a couple of songs for scenes in the film and they’ve made it onto the soundtrack.
That doesn’t constitute becoming a “manufactured pop singer”.
^^^i wasn’t referring to her character singing in the film as manufactured.
i was commenting on arasto’s opinion of: “It looks unlikely Keira will launch a pop career alongside her film work — though we would love to see it!”
Arasto might love to see her launch a pop career, but i don’t want to see her as another “manufactured pop singer”. like i said, i like her as an actress.
Oh, like that.
I misunderstood you, then.
^^it’s easy to misunderstand on the net.
if she was a closet singer and singing in small clubs, i’d be curious about seeing that. i’m not interested in big music company turning her into a popstar just because they can.
freakingplease - Keira was in Pride and Prejudice. Sense and Sensibility was with Kate Winslet and Emma Thompson.
