Megan Fox's Full Amica Interview



Megan on those Facebook photos:
"A doctor suggested me to do that. At that time it was necessary to give a speech on this, not only because the criticism made by the media about it hurt me, but also because it was passing a wrong message. Girls now think is a normal thing to do a cosmetic surgery or intervention at any age and for any reason. It’s a terrible message, so I wanted to show that, at age 25 , I do not need it."



Too young for botox, too old for a Britney Spears piercing and a Marilyn Monroe tattoo. After action films, the actress goes for comedy. And she’s finally having fun with it.

Forget the tattoos and the false rumor of bisexuality. Megan Fox is fed up with the comparisons to Angelina Jolie. If she ever dreamed of being another person, that would be Britney Spears. Megan is not the bad girl who goes to wild parties until late hours, with a destructive lifestyle and promiscuous. “I hate crowded places, I follow a healthy diet and yes, I have only slept with two men in my whole life,” she says. However, as a teenager, Megan had a more free spirit. She wasn’t exactly a model student at school and, more than once, took the family car for a driving without a license. “I used to drive it two times a week to see my boyfriend at the time (for those unaware, she refers to Ben, her first boyfriend). He was the religious type, the kind that goes to church every Sunday and such. He was not a gangster. But my family didn’t want us to date, so we used to see each other hiding, “said Megan.

We met Megan in a studio in Chelsea, New York. She arrived with her husband, actor Brian Austin Green (aka David Silver of the 90’s TV show Beverly Hills 90210), and one of her agents, Leslie Sloane, who controls every syllable that Megan says. Leslie prohibits the magazine to ask questions about two subjects: the departure of Megan from Transformers 3 and the false rumor spreaded by co-star Shia Labeouf, who said he had an affair with Megan during the shooting of the franchise, in order to protect Megan’s image and career.
Megan enters the studio wearing sneakers, a pair of dark gray leggings, a blue shirt and a baseball cap pulled forward. She is short and small, almost unrecognizable. But the second she took off her cap, we saw the perfect beauty. It is no coincidence that she was chosen to be the face of the Armani brand for so long. Her skin is pale and we notice that one of her tattoos, the Marilyn Monroe one, is disappearing.

Amica: What’s going on with your Marilyn tattoo?
Megan: I’m removing it. It is a negative character. She suffered from personality disorders and was bipolar. I don’t want to attract this kind of negative energy in my life. And who knows? I’m thinking of removing some other tattoos, but the pain in the sessions of laser removal is terrible.

Amica: And your piercing? During the shoot, we noticed that you have a small sign above the hole pierced navel. Do you regret it?
Megan: Oh, this? I did it when I was 16 because I was a fan of Britney Spears and she had a really cool navel piercing. It was the only time I tried to imitate someone. But then I started to find my piercing really tacky, so I removed it when I turned 20 years old.

Amica: You’re considered a sex symbol. Is this a role imposed by Hollywood or is it a natural inclination of yours?
Megan: I can’t control or stop people from calling me sexy. In my opinion, I think some people find sexy the way I talk or walk or move. But on the screen, as a character, I feel sexy, but in real life, this is the aspect that I have more conflicts.

Amica: Why?
Megan: It’s a very stressful thing. As a character, you live the emotions of another person, then you go back home and back to being yourself.

Amica: And you do comedy now?
Megan: I’m enjoying it. I think I prefer more. It’s more relaxing. I feel a different atmosphere around me. In comedy, everyone seems to be on set for fun.

Amica: If you have a daughter in the future and she wants to be an actress in Hollywood, will you be happy?
Megan: I’m not going to be very happy, but I’m not going to try to stop her from doing it so if it is really what she wants. I will try to help, guide, advise. I just hope she has a strong personality to handle this job, because you have to be strong enough to survive in this profession. She can’t be too emotional or weak.

Amica: And your mother? How did she react when you announced you wanted to be an actress?
Megan: The first time I mentioned this to her, I was about 2 to 3 years old. As a child I was obsessed with Judy Garland, I wanted to be Dorothy in the movie “The Wizard Of Oz”. My mother was not thrilled at first. I was born in Tennessee, in a middle class family that struggled to survive at the end of each month, and in these places and in these circumstances, it wasn’t very commom for a girl to say she wanted a career in Hollywood. But I insisted and fought. My mother begun to accept it with time, helping me to finish school and get into college if I wanted. But I’m very stubborn, so I started to work as soon as possible. At 15, I could pay for my own little things. I started very young doing catalogs for fashion magazines in Miami. But my ambitions of becoming an actress were not well seen in my school. I was often bulled because of it and I was treated as a stranger. Girls also picked on me because I preferred the company of boys.

Amica: To deny the rumors that you had botox, you put some pictures on your facebook where you made funny faces. Was it necessary to publish them?
Megan: Absolutely. A doctor suggested me to do that. At that time it was necessary to give a speech on this, not only because the criticism made by the media about it hurt me, but also because it was passing a wrong message. Girls now think is a normal thing to do a cosmetic surgery or intervention at any age and for any reason. It’s a terrible message, so I wanted to show that, at age 25 , I do not need it. I am not against it, I might do it in the future or not, but certainly not now.

Amica: Is there anything in your body that you dislike?
Megan: Sure. There are many things in my body that I don’t like. But I will not say which ones.

Amica: Like your height, for example? (Megan Fox has 1,63 cm)
Megan: Not anymore. I have an average height for an actress. It was a problem when I was modeling in fashion shows in my teenage years, but it’s not a problem now in my work.

Amica: How do you stay so fit?
Megan: For a year and a half to about four months ago, I followed a strict diet based on fruits and raw vegetables, no bread products, no sugar, no coffee. But I started to lose too much weight with it. Now I eat a little bit of everything. And I work out 3 times a week doing circuit training (a series of exercises with tools that improve muscle power), with my trainer Harley Pasternak.

Amica: What is your relationship with fashion?
Megan: I like some things and I follow them. And I have a personal stylist, but I also like my stuff, my styles. If I’m not working, I prefer to dress casually. It’s hard to be fashion every day.

Amica: Have you ever feared for your career?
Megan: No, never. Why? Because of Transformers? Because of why I left the movie? (At this point of the interview, Megan’s agent, Leslie, intervened and demanded us to change the question. Megan snorts and continues) … how could I? I’m destined to work as an actress.

Amica: You want to be remembered for something in the future?
Megan: For my lack of fear I do what I think is right for my life, not caring about what others will think of me.





I know she doesn't want to be asked stuff like that but damn, she's just coming off hypocritical.

She's definitely had plastic surgery. Why post pics on Facebook to deny it? IDGI
[info]suzycat 23rd-Aug-2011 01:10 pm (UTC)
Yeah. Botox freezes your face, browlift/fillers/nosejob etc do not.
[info]ljubavirakija 23rd-Aug-2011 01:16 pm (UTC)
IMO, it would be better if she owned up to it and regretted it instead of blatantly denying it. I think it would send a stronger message

specially that those pics more proved she had it than deny it lol

Really? FFS.
[info]rogue 23rd-Aug-2011 03:39 pm (UTC)
Not the first time this has happened. That same agent (I think) was really aggressive in one interview I saw on YouTube. I think they were talking about a magazine Megan was in, or something sexy, and she was like, all up in the conversation demanding a change.

It's for Megan's own good tbh
[info]crackitycrackho 23rd-Aug-2011 01:08 pm (UTC)
It’s a terrible message, so I wanted to show that, at age 25 , I do not need it.

Imo, if you have had surgery, own up to it. There's no used to denying it if it's obvious you've done work to your face/body.

...and if she is telling the truth, she is starting to age terriblely because Megan doesn't look healthy when it comes to skin.
[info]luvthatdrtywata 23rd-Aug-2011 01:14 pm (UTC)
it probably comes from not getting proper nutrients. her diet doesn't sound all that healthy. i mean fruits and veggies are obviously great but things like olive oil, that she's probably not touching, are great for skin. i also think a lot of it stems from their being zero fat to plump up the skin and it's drooping a bit because of that.
[info]poison_sin 23rd-Aug-2011 01:18 pm (UTC)
What is her diet?..and her havinf "zero fat", like you said can be a factor as well. Weightloss and gain does mess with your face. But I do think its more because of her diet, skin doesn't look healthy. =/
[info]luvthatdrtywata 23rd-Aug-2011 01:11 pm (UTC)
megan never change...except maybe gain a little weight...otherwise remain flawfree baby girl!

She's obviously had work done and she sounds like a dumbass trying to deny it.

it makes no sense to have pets or children who don't fear you
I come home every day and my dog comes running. she doesn't jump on me like she would anyone else, she just sits there, head bowed, tail wagging dangerously fast. she fuckin respects me man.

awwww ilh<3

finally get info on why she's takin off the marylin tat good on her tbh

and the plastic surgery comment ilu gurl but we all know you did shit even i can admit that *sigh*
[info]ljubavirakija 23rd-Aug-2011 01:14 pm (UTC)
I get a Lee Majors/Farrah Fawcett vibe from Brian and Megan
[info]luvthatdrtywata 23rd-Aug-2011 01:15 pm (UTC)
yeah, i'm not convinced that's a healthy relationship tbh.
[info]shilohninejulia 23rd-Aug-2011 01:34 pm (UTC)
i like their relationship but there is def some amount of parental vibe to it. when they started dating she was 18 and he was 31 with a 2 year old. and she's said herself that he 'raised' her, and that she has no friends and spends all of her time with him and his son. which is fine, that's her family now. but idk i just think it's all she knows and it's kind of sad in a way.
[info]bostongirl2003 23rd-Aug-2011 01:55 pm (UTC)
same.
[info]homette 23rd-Aug-2011 01:15 pm (UTC)
"I can’t control or stop people from calling me sexy."

its funny cause she tries to LMAO
[info]door 23rd-Aug-2011 01:15 pm (UTC)
"...so I wanted to show that, at age 25, I do not need it."

...anymore, now that I've completely redefined my face. LULZ!

Also, poor form on her comments about Marilyn Monroe. Way to vilify mental illness.

ALSO ALSO: She says she only slept with two men in this article: Ben and Brian. So either Shia or Meghan is lying. I believe Shia is a douchebag but, with all the other lying she's doing in this article... idk. It doesn't and shouldn't matter, regardless.

meh, to be fair, it's not like Shia's interview was any more "honest" than this. It was a bunch of posturing to try to paint himself as a stud (like that quote about how he was oh so tough with Tom Hardy - lol, almost on the same level of bs as Megan denying having had cosmetic procedures).

True. I'm no fan of Shia and willfully forgot most of that fail interview, tbh.
[info]xtinkerbellax 23rd-Aug-2011 03:07 pm (UTC)
She never slept with that guy from 7th Heaven when they were dating? I find that weird.
[info]veelaorion 23rd-Aug-2011 04:06 pm (UTC)
They could have hooked up but only did oral. A lot of people don't really consider that to be sex.
[info]mimibajiduh 24th-Aug-2011 08:12 am (UTC)
i actually believe her on the 2 guys thing. a lot of people think that just bc a girl is hot or good looking, there is no way they can only have had that man partners. but its very possible. and why would you lie about something like that?
[info]upood 24th-Aug-2011 06:57 pm (UTC)
she didnt sleep with ben, he was religious and young. She slept with that 7th heaven dude..david? and brian. and when you think about it, the timeline does prove it tbh. just cause someones attractive doesnt mean theyve slept with 50 million people
Shia was just being a bitter douche. he hardly ever is honest in interviews, he hates media.

[info]6a696c6c 2nd-Sep-2011 04:28 pm (UTC)
For real... I was like damn, I'll never be her friend because I'm bipolar and ~scary and dangerous~ and I ~send the wrong message~
[info]lastvoodooqueen 23rd-Aug-2011 01:16 pm (UTC)
why on earth is she telling the interviewer she's only slept with 2 men in her life? Girl, it's okay to keep some things to yourself.
[info]greencancer 23rd-Aug-2011 01:23 pm (UTC)
She probs wants to prove a point.
[info]tomlinton 23rd-Aug-2011 01:51 pm (UTC)
lol 2 men? so that would be shia labeouf and her husband? girl please.
[info]lollapoe 23rd-Aug-2011 02:27 pm (UTC)
The article full out calls Shia a liar.
[info]bostongirl2003 23rd-Aug-2011 01:56 pm (UTC)
Shia said that Megan really wasn't comfortable with sexpot image that resulted from Transformers. She might be trying to contradict that.
[info]roxi9 23rd-Aug-2011 02:10 pm (UTC)
Her stans said those 2 guys are her boyfriend from high school or something (?) and BAG. But she slept with Shia too.
[info]flaviavn 23rd-Aug-2011 02:22 pm (UTC)
she didnt say how many women tho.
