Megan Fox Esquire Interview and Photoshoot Feature Is Out!

Pictures!  Videos!  Megan Fox saying the darnedest things!  There is a reason everyone is in love with this woman.

“I think people are born bisexual and then make subconscious choices based on the pressures of society. I have no question in my mind about being bisexual. But I’m also a hypocrite: I would never date a girl who was bisexual, because that means they also sleep with men, and men are so dirty that I’d never want to sleep with a girl who had slept with a man.”

She makes this last statement, one she knows will get bolded and underlined and hyperlinked into oblivion.

Right you are, Megan Fox!  Ten facts you didn’t know about Megan Fox, plus the phooootos, ATJ! 

She has a “healthy fear” of horses, yet determined to learn to ride for an upcoming role.  (Bonus fact: she’s 5″4′ and 100 lbs.)

It’s hard to hold this unwillingness to kick Bandit against her, because it is, after all, kicking an animal, but also because she’s clearly freaked out — “terrified” is how she puts it — being in the saddle for the first time. “I have a healthy fear of horses,” she said when she was introduced to Bandit, and considering he’s a thousand-pound brown beast and she’s a five-four, hundred-pound twenty-two-year-old actress, this was odd only because the riding lesson was her idea. She wanted to learn, she said.

She is sexual, but not slutty.

“People assume that I’m really promiscuous. There’s a difference between being very sexual and being promiscuous. I’m not promiscuous. I’m extraordinarily sexual within a monogamous relationship. Nothing’s off-limits. But that has nothing to do with experiencing a lot of people. I’ve only had two boyfriends my whole life.”

She did not like her super-Christ high school.

“They had right-wing conservative teachers teaching Bible class,” she says. “They’d tell us how abortion was wrong, how evolution was wrong, how sex was wrong. I hated school.”

She is still learning to be both a sex symbol and a real person.

“If you know how to take control of it, then it can be powerful,” she says of being a sex symbol. “But I have no idea how to handle it yet, how to deal with it. I don’t want to have to be like a Scarlett Johansson — who I have nothing against — but I don’t want to have to go on talk shows and pull out every single SAT word I’ve ever learned to prove, like, ‘Take me seriously, I am intelligent, I can speak.’”

She does not like clubs!

“When I go to a party, I always feel like I’m chum. Like my agent is just chumming the waters until I’m circled by all these dudes.”

She thinks actors “aren’t necessarily the most intelligent guys,” and a lot of them are douchebags (surprise).

Such was the fate of one up-and-coming Irish actor who hit on her as she was smoking a cigarette alone after an awards show. “He was like, ‘Cigarettes? Do you have an addictive personality? Well, what else are you addicted to?’ ” she says. “Like, I’m unaware that he wants me to say, ‘Sex. I’m addicted to sex, I just can’t get enough. I just really want a daddy, can you be my daddy?’”

She also thinks Superman is a douchebag.  (Not wrong there.)

“I just think he’s a lame superhero. He’s not interesting. He’s not dark. He’s just kind of a douchebag.”

She does not want to be a sanitized, Disney-style celibacy queen.

“Because I’m young and female, people want me to be like some Disney Channel, supersafe, sex-before-marriage-is-bad, Taylor Swift, I-date-someone-with-a-promise-ring, bullshit girl.”

She likes Lord of the Rings, just like you and me!

Fox knows the name of Gandalf’s horse in The Lord of the Rings, a trilogy she’s seen “a billion times” because Fox isn’t just a fanboy’s wet dream but a fanboy herself. “If I were to get typecast in comic-book movies for the rest of my life, that would be okay.”

She has honest self-doubt in her ability to play serious, difficult roles.

After Transformers came out, Fox passed on a bunch of challenging scripts because she was scared she wasn’t good enough or the roles seemed laughably implausible for her.

Which is fine and understandable, but Fox is so red-hot right now that she’s getting extremely choice offers, the kind that could launch her career as a respected and enduring actress rather than just a girl of the moment – she should at least try one out, because such opportunities don’t last.

So that’s why we like Megan Fox.  Because she’s young, and doesn’t pretend otherwise.  She’s honest.  And she “gets it” in a way most other famous people do not – cannot – because celebrity divorces you from reality.  Also, way hot.

    This is what is wrong with our culture; this person is being interviewed, and people actually read it. Why do I need to hear what this person has to say? WOW, you’re talking about SEX- that’s so edgy and has never been done before! Just sit there and be pretty in movies until you hit 35, then you can struggle to be taken seriously as a real actor. Bravo on being demeaning to all women.
