Misunderstood: Judged on her looks

Actor Megan Fox feels people assume she is self-centred, superficial

Transformers star Megan Fox believes people assume she is a superficial and self-centred person who lacks self-awareness because of her physical appearance. Furthermore, she said she is done fighting this image people have formed of her.

In an interview with Los Angeles Times, the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles star drew similarities between herself and the Bond girls.

“You know how women that are always cast in James Bond movies are pin-ups but their job in the movies is always being a marine biologist or neuroscientist? I think people react to me that way. Like, ‘Right, she’s studying neurobiology.’ But I am really interested in that,” shared Fox.



However, she mentioned that what she says or how eloquently she speaks doesn’t make much of a difference because at the end of the day, she is going to be made into what people desire her to be.

“I’m not going to keep fighting the image that exists. People anticipate shallowness [from me]. They anticipate self-centeredness and a lack of self-awareness. It doesn’t matter what I say, or how eloquent a speaker I may be, or how positive my intentions may be,” she said, adding, “I’m going to be made into what people desire me to be.”
