Keira Knightley has vowed never to live in Hollywood because it’s a city with a one-track mind.

The British actress says she loves living in London because of the cosmopolitan lifestyle there helps her development as an actress – something Tinseltown could never manage.

She explains in a new magazine interview, “It's a funny place - I could never live in Hollywood, because there's nowhere to escape to. You find yourself sitting around a lot and every conversation you have is about the movies.

"I think you have to be in a city that has different walks of life that you can observe - and, for me, that's London."

And, despite her Golden Globe nomination for 'Atonement', gawd knows Keira could do with developing her acting skills.
