Megan Fox: Hot or Not?


How can you not find Megan Fox attractive? I'm pretty sure every man wants to be with her and every woman wants to BE her. One of the stars of the huge blockbuster hit Transformers and the soon-to-be released sequel, she has exploded onto the pop culture scene. With her stunning good looks, she has become a number-one target for magazine covers.

That's where her charm goes downhill. Fast.

In numerous articles she curses, talks about smoking weed, lesbian affairs, and manipulating men. 


Is she still as beautiful as you thought before?

Well, maybe to some her dirty mouth only adds to her sex appeal. After I read those articles though, I suddenly didn't have any desire to be Megan Fox anymore. In fact, whenever I look at her in pictures or on the television, I get a little angry. 

I don't necessarily believe that every young actress should be the spitting image of a virginal angel who is only captured in pictures at charity events or helping children in foreign countries (cough, Angelina Jolie, cough). In fact there is a little part of me that applauds Megan Fox in her ability to be so open and to not conform to the Hollywood norm. Yet, a bigger part of me only sees her quotes as crude, unbecoming, and even childish. 

Maybe she sees herself as the next Marilyn Monroe (she has a large tattoo of the late beauty on her forearm) but I don't think Monroe is remembered for talking about dating strippers, putting down other actresses, or calling men 'weak'. There is a fine line that I believe Megan Fox has taken a tiny step over. 

In order to be respected, you have to respect others. 

And that's a life lesson everyone should follow, not just popular, beautiful, rich actresses.

(From a PR standpoint, of course) I really think Megan Fox overplays this in order to give off an image that she's not like all those "virginal angel who is only captured in pictures at charity events or helping children in foreign countries." I'm guessing that she isn't as drastic about it in person as she is when talking to the media--she just wants to get quoted in news stories. Clearly, it is working. And not a lot of young actresses would turn down such publicity.

I never found her attractive at all. This is coming from a reasonably good looking (straight) guy. She looks 'hot' I guess, but in the most stereotypical sense of the word. She has absolutely NOTHING special. NOTHING sets her apart from any other 'hot' celeb.
