I agree that in the photo shown, Ms. Knightly appears to be unhealthily thin. I see that picture and worry for her.

But i also object to the mindset that places the primary (or sole) focus for this problem on thin female celebrities. Advertisers and media outlets and the diet industry are making billions of dollars every year, and their profit margins depend largely on women having low self-esteem.
