Keira Knightley's friends and family have banned her from reading newspapers, because they make her so angry.The 'Pirates of the Caribbean' star isn't ashamed of her "moody" personality, but admits her pals became so annoyed with her temper tantrums they removed one of the catalysts.Keira said: "I'm a moody b*****d, to be honest. I've been banned from reading newspapers because the way they're written angers me so much. If I want an opinion, I'll read the opinion part of the newspaper. I do not want it when I'm trying to get the facts. "I get incredibly angry. It really f**ks me off. See, I have to calm down about it even now!"Keira also revealed another of her pet hates are mobile phones.She added to Elle magazine: "God, I hate my mobile phone. It rings and then I realise that I don't want to talk to anyone. So I always press ignore. One time I threw it into the sea, but then went, 'Oh my God, I want to be eco-friendly but I've chucked a BlackBerry into the sea!'"So I went diving into the water, which I hadn't actually been in, because there were meant to be barracudas or something, and I sort of fished around but couldn't find it anywhere, so I had to leave it."
