Keira Knightley Protests Photoshop: 'I Think Women's Bodies Are A Battleground'

Keira Knightley just joined the ranks of celebrities who are taking a stand against Photoshop. In reference to her unedited topless photo shoot for Interview magazine, Knightley told The Times, a British newspaper

As Jezebel notes, controversy struck when Knightley's breasts were noticeably enlarged via Photoshop for the "King Arthur" promotional posters. 
“I think women’s bodies are a battleground and photography is partly to blame. Our society is so photographic now, it becomes more difficult to see all of those different varieties of shape," the 29-year-old told the Times. 
Knightley has been an outspoken champion for feminist causes in the past. In an interview in Harper's Bazaar in February, the "Begin Again" actress told the magazine:
"I think it’s great that the discussions are finally being allowed to be had [about feminism], as opposed to anybody mentioning feminism and everybody going, 'Oh, f--ing shut up.' Somehow, [feminism] became a dirty word."
