Megan Fox may be only 24, but in celebrity years she’s practically geriatric. At an age when many actresses are still asking if you want ketchup with your fries, she has appeared in an array of movies and TV sitcoms; stripped to her skivvies for men’s magazines and served up provocative sound bits; been anointed the next Angelina Jolie thanks to her dark hair, pillowy lips, tattoos, and general aura of danger; and had a few public feuds.
But Fox is now keeping her audience off balance, executing what seems to be a dignified retreat. She’s choosing small, independent movie projects, starring in sexy but sophisticated ads for Armani Jeans and Emporio Armani underwear, and modulating her outrageous remarks…somewhat. Is it because she’s overwhelmed by all the attention she’s attracted? Is she making a calculated career move under the guidance of concerned advisors? Or could it be that the actress, who left Port St. Lucie, Florida, for Hollywood when she was 17, is just a complicated, contradictory person, still figuring out what she wants out of adulthood?
When she’s speaking, Fox–standard off-duty uniform of black leggings and baggy gray T-shirt not quite managing to mute her inherent look-at-me quality–is, more than anything else, surprising.
All those racy interviews? Part of the job.
In the past, Fox teased the press with stories such as the possibly fictional (or embellished) tale about an affair with a Russian stripper named Nikita. This perhaps earned her more scrutiny for her imagined sex life than for her onscreen performances. “I was really open when I first started,” she says now. “Trying to be lighthearted and have a sense of humor and engage in some sort of satire sometimes. It did backfire to a certain extent, and it became too exhausting. I still have the same sense of humor, but I have no desire to express it, really, anymore, because I’ve always been fucked for doing so.”
While she’s certainly comfortable with her sexuality, often posing and acting in revealing clothes and not shying away from love scenes like the one with Amanda Seyfried in Jennifer’s Body, she maintains a strong sense of privacy. Today, for example, she learns about a blurry picture of herself topless, taken on a cell phone, that was leaked while she was filming a new independent movie, Passion Play, in which she plays a circus-sideshow performer who has bird wings. “If I knew who took this picture, I would personally cause them harm–physical harm,” she says. “I’m not a fucking reality-TV star that’s courting the paparazzi and wants my fucking picture taken all the time. I’m at my job and I’m trying to play a character and I’m trying to be serious, and this is the shit that’s happened to me. It makes me furious.”

Megan Fox is seeking to transform rumor to fact. The actress is slamming speculation she was booted from the third installment of the Transformers action film franchise.
“Megan Fox will not be starring in Transformers 3,” reps for the actress, 24, tell PEOPLE. “It was her decision not to return. She wishes the franchise the best.”
Citing unnamed sources, Variety reports the studio and the film’s director, Michael Bay, intend to cast another actress as star Shia LaBeouf’s love interest to move the story in a different direction.
Shooting for the film, slated for a July 2011 release, is expected to kick off this summer in locations across the U.S.
Fox, meanwhile, is prepping for the June 18 release of Jonah Hex, an action film she stars in opposite Josh Brolin, John Malkovich and Will Arnett.

Megan Fox covers Allure magazine’s June 2010 issue. Megan is described as having a “dirty mind” and “clean hands” in the June 2010 issue of Allure, on newsstands May 25.
When she arrives for her cover shoot at Milk Studios in Los Angles, the 23-year-old actress had her Kindle with her; queued up was New York Times best-seller “Jesus Interrupted: Revealing the Hidden Contradictions in the Bible (And Why We Don’t Know About Them).” Here’s what Megan shared with the mag:
On the topless pic that was leaked while filming Passion Play: “If I knew who took this picture, I would personally cause them harm — physical harm, I’m not a f—ing reality-TV star that’s courting the paparazzi and wants my f—ing picture taken all the time. I’m at my job and I’m trying to play a character and I’m trying to be serious, and this is the sh– that’s happening to me. It makes me furious.”
On plastic surgery: “I would encourage anyone to first speak with a therapist, to try and figure out where this want comes from, because a lot of times it’s not related to your teeth or your nose or your chin — the surgery is not going to alleviate that insecurity for you. If, then, you feel, This is something that I want to do, then do it. It’s amazing that we have the technology to do the stuff that we do.”
On avoiding industry events: “Everyone blows sunshine up everyone else’s ass. I hate receiving compliments; I hate being told I’m talented or people think I’m going to be a movie star. I always feel that it’s forced and fake.”
Megan revealed that she suffers from Obsessive Compulsive Disorder and has problems with everyday scenarios in the interview.
She explained, “This is a sickness, I have an illness. Every time someone uses a bathroom and they flush, all the bacteria is shot into the air.”
Ms. Fox also brings her own silverware wherever she goes. “Putting my mouth where a million other mouths have been, just knowing all the bacteria that you carry in your mouth? Ucch!”
The interview seems to be very interesting, so don’t forget to buy the magazine. It will be on newsstands on May 25th.

Well, that Marisa’s better than Katy perry, but anyway, Megan’s hotter! Let’s just hope that with releasing of Megan’s new movie this whole thing with “Sexiest woman’s polls” will get better and Megan will officially become the sexiest woman alive again.
A global poll for FHM, which pooled together more than a million votes from the magazine’s 24 editions around the world, awarded blonde Miller the crown and pushed Megan Fox into second place.
Cheryl Cole holds the number one spot in the UK edition of the magazine, which is popular in countries including Germany, Russia and India.
