Megan Fox Admits Making up Stories Backfired

Megan Fox has bangs now, for the cover of Interview magazine June/ July 2010.

The issue features several shots of the actress, recently separated from the Tranformers franchise. The 24-year-old seems to be making lesbian sessy times with a naked store mannequin, who’s wearing the same black bob wig and red lip. For reals. They lay in bed together, glassy-eyed, staring at the ceiling, and lounging around the house. In some photos, one has to work a little too hard to work out which is the mannequin and which is a be-wigged Fox. Some of her pictures and excerpts from her chat with fellow actor Zach Galifanakis are below.

  • On making up stories for attention (and it backfiring): “In the past, I’ve been reluctant to share any bits of truth about myself or to really let people in on my reality. So I have said some things to throw people off the scent of what’s really going on in my life. So I have sort of aided the media in printing these misconceptions, which I regret.”

  • On quotes being taken out of context: “It just happens so much that I don’t want to open my mouth or speak anymore, because everything I say becomes scandalous. It wears you out. So I’m a bit jaded. I don’t read my own press, so I don’t know what’s being reported on a daily basis—I only hear about things when they reach a sort of Def-Con status and my publicist calls me because we have to do some damage control. “
  • On her dislike for the paparazzi: “I don’t really resent being on the red carpet as much as I do having to deal with the paparazzi. That actually makes me angry. The photographers on the red carpet—that’s their job. They’re usually pretty respectful, so I don’t mind.”
  • On hiding from public attention versus living a celebrity life: “I find that it’s easier to disguise yourself when you go to Florida or places like that, because no one is expecting to see a celebrity there. When you throw on a hat and glasses, no one really looks at you twice—because why would you be in Florida? People just assume that if you’re famous, you’re in Hollywood. But in places like New York and L.A., they know that you live there and that you’re trying to disguise yourself, so people are always looking.”
  • On feeling overwhelmed by the press attention: “Every time I leave the house or we go anywhere, there is that paranoia. We always have to watch for specific cars and specific signs that we’re being photographed. The other day, I was having a private conversation on my phone, and I had to step out of my car to go into a Rite Aid. And there were like six photographers in the bushes photographing me the whole time. It’s weird. It is overwhelming. At times it’s jarring.”
