Earlier, the actress was seen in King Arthur American posters as a buxom beauty, but she told a US magazine that the promotion poster was not original.

"I don't have any t***, so I can't show cleavage," she said.
The 'Pirates of the Caribbean' beauty insisted that Chanel's Coco Mademoiselle was the first ever 'women' perfume she wore.
"It is the first women's perfume I've ever worn. I need something clean,"
Knightley is thought to have signed a one-year contract worth more than 500,000 pounds to be the face of the scent.
