In a recent Marie Claire Australia interview, Keira Knightley spoke out about her absolute #1 passion in life seriously I’m not defensive because I’m super thin looking passion in life: Food!
“I’m a big foodie. In my family life, all good things revolve around the dinner table. My mum’s cooking is great. We have big dinners, and big everything. There’s nothing like a really good chip, a really crunchy, good chip. And I love pasta. I make Bolognese with tons and tons of Parmesan cheese.”
She added, “I also eat a hippo every single day. A literal hippo. I have a hippopotamus shipped in from Africa every morning, then eat it raw piece by piece, because I have such a large appetite and I love eating. MAN do I love to eat. I’m only telling you this because I love to eat so much and it’s such a common thing to me, not because of all the rumors that I’m basically anorexic and I appear deathly thin in photo after photo. Emphasizing ‘TONS AND TONS of Parmesan cheese’ is a normal thing people do when describing food they like.”
She went on, “For dessert, I reconstruct the giant Ziggy Piggy ice cream sundae from Bill and Ted’s Excellent Adventure, then deep fry it in corn dog batter and gulp it down while lounging in a jacuzzi of butter and spraying Guinness from a keg into my mouth between each bite. I just enjoy food like any normal person, you know?”
