Keira picked as new face of Chanel

Oscar nominated actress Keira Knightley has replaced supermodel Kate Moss as the face of Chanel. British born Knightley has signed a three year deal worth $1million. The fashion house was desperate to sign someone new after photographs of Moss allegedly snorting lines of cocaine were published in a British tabloid. A source told the Mail on Sunday: "Keira loves Chanel and she is perfect for them. She is one of the most beautiful women in the world. "Not only is she gorgeous but, unlike Kate, she has never been touched by scandal. "It's a huge deal." [Entertainmentwise]
