Piers Morgan has criticised Keira Knightley for moaning about the downside of fame.

The Britain’s Got Talent judge hit out at celebrities who complain about media intrusion while regularly agreeing to pose for magazines.

He told Closer: "She moans about being famous and then does endless photo sessions. You can't use the media to promote yourself and then attack them!

"My message to Keira is: 'If you'd like me to get off your case, stop bleating!' Most people would change their lives in a flash to have a tenth of what people like her have. Being famous is brilliant."

Knightley recently said she believed paparazzi were stealing her soul when they took her picture.
