Megan Denise Fox (born May 16, 1986) is an American actress and model.

After a successful career as a model, Fox launched her acting career in 2001 with a supporting role as Brianna Wallace in Holiday in the Sun, starring opposite Mary Kate Olsen and Ashley Olsen. Fox then guest-starred in various television series, including What I Like About You, Two and a Half Men, The Help, and Ocean Ave. She also played a recurring role as Sydney Shanowski on Hope and Faith.

In 2004, Fox began her film career starring opposite Lindsay Lohan in Confessions of a Teenage Drama Queen. Her other films include Crimes Of Fashion (2004, TV), How to Lose Friends & Alienate People (2008) and Whore (2008). Fox's breakout role was as Mikaela Banes, Shia LaBeouf's character's love interest in the 2007 blockbuster film Transformers, a role for which Fox was nominated and won various Teen Choice Awards.[1] She appeared in the sequel, Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen. Her upcoming films include Jennifer's Body,[2] Jonah Hex, and The Crossing.[3][4][5]

Early life

Fox was born in Oak Ridge, Tennessee,[6] to Darlene Tonachio, former Roane County, Tennessee Tourism Director,[6][7] and Franklin Foxx.[8] Fox's father dropped an "x" from his surname. Fox has one older sister.[9] Fox's parents divorced when she was young and she and her sister were raised by her mother and her stepfather, Tony Tonachio.[10][6][11][10] Fox said that her mother and her stepfather were really strict and that she was grounded all of her childhood, not for doing anything particularly crazy, but because she didn't like being preached to by authority figures.[10] Fox is of Irish, French and Native American ancestry [12] and grew up in Rockwood, Tennessee. She began her training in drama and dance at age five, in Kingston, Tennessee.[8] She attended a dance class at the community center there and was involved in Kingston Elementary School's chorus and the Kingston Clippers swim team. At 10-years-old, after moving to St. Petersburg, Florida, Fox continued her training. [13][14]

Fox said that in middle school, she ate lunch in the bathroom to avoid being bullied and picked on. She believes the problem was not her looks, but that she rubbed people the wrong way. According to her, she had always gotten along better with boys than with girls.[15] Fox also said of high school that she was an outcast who was never popular and whose friends were always guys. "I have a very aggressive personality, and girls didn’t like me for that. I’ve had only one great girlfriend my whole life."[16] She believed that school was irrelevant and because she knew that she wanted to be an actress, never took her education seriously.[16]

FHM readers voted her the "Sexiest Woman in the World" in 2008.[57][58]

Comparison to Angelina Jolie

Fox has often been compared to actress, Angelina Jolie by the media dubbing her as an "Angelina clone", "Angelina 2.0" and "Angelina Jr." among others.[59][60][61][60][62][63][64] Fox has been compared to Jolie because they each have a "tattoo collection", and status as a "built in sex-symbol".[65][66][67]

Fox commented that the comparisons indicate a lack of creativity on the part of the media, and are simply due the dark hair and tattoos that she and Jolie have, and that both have been in action movies. Fox was also said to have been replacing Jolie in the next Lara Croft film, but Fox turned down the role, saying "There have been a lot of films I've had to pass on because I don't want people thinking I'm trying to emulate her."[68][69][70]

Fox said of the idea of ever meeting Jolie that, "I haven't had the opportunity to meet her and I try to avoid that because I'm afraid," and "She's a powerful person and I bet she would eat me alive."[68][71] Fox also continued with and remarked that, "I'm sure she has no idea who I am. But if I were her, I'd be like, 'Who the fuck is this little bullshit brat who was in Transformers that's going to be the next me?' I don't want to meet her. I'd be embarrassed."[65][72]

Tattoos

Fox in October, 2007 with two of her tattoos visible.

Fox has eight known tattoos,[73] including her ex-fiancé's name "Brian" on her lower hip and a picture of Marilyn Monroe's face on her right forearm.[74] Fox also has another tattoo on her right shoulder that reads, "We will all laugh at gilded butterflies" a line adapted from William Shakespeare's play King Lear, a yin and yang tattoo on her left inner wrist, a poem on the left side of her rib cage that reads "there once was a little girl who never knew love until a boy broke her HEART," and a Chinese word for "strength" on her neck.[75] Fox also has a crescent moon overlapping a five pointed star on the inner aspect of her lower leg above her right ankle. This tattoo is the only known colored tattoo that Fox has.[76]

Fox said she has a Marilyn Monroe tattoo because "She was one of the first people I saw on television, like, literally moments after I was born. Every time I heard her voice growing up I always would cry. I wouldn't know why when I was younger but had my own theories. I've just always empathized with her."[77] Fox also said of that tattoo: "I know a lot about her but I empathized with her before I knew any of those things so that’s why I was driven to actually ink it on my arm. It was between her and Kurt Cobain and I went with her."[73]

Fox also said on her yin/yang tattoo that "The guy was smoking weed while he tattooed me and he didn't do it correctly. Now it's nothing and I'm gonna get it removed. I was told he was a really amazing tattoo artist but he wasn't on his game that night. He was distracted." However, Fox still has that tattoo as of May 2009.[77] Fox has said of her tattoos that "Every time I get a tattoo, it's a little 'fuck you' to anyone who tells me not to."[78]

In late May, 2009 when Fox was at John F. Kennedy International Airport she told paparazzi that she was planning on getting another tattoo, Fox had said that she was planning on getting a sleeve tattoo on her right arm.[79] It was widely reported that Fox and her mother Darlene, had come to a strong disagreement and sparked argument's over Fox's tattoos in general and Fox's plan to get a sleeve tattoo.[80][81][82] Fox's mother Darlene had said that she has never understood why Fox would want to "cover her gorgeous body with tattoos". The National Enquirer reported that after each new tattoo that Fox got that Darlene "pleaded" with Fox not to get anymore. Fox's mother Darlene had felt that when Fox is a "40-year-old woman wanting to play more mature roles, people won’t hire her because it will be too hard to cover her tattoos.” and Darlene also had feared it would and will jeopardize Fox's career.[83][84]

Personal life

Fox has been involved with actor Brian Austin Green of Beverly Hills, 90210 and Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles fame since 2004, having first met on the set of Fox's show Hope & Faith.[85][86] It was reported that the couple had ended their relationship in July 2008[87][88] and in February 2009;[89][90] however, Fox and Green both confirmed on both occasions that the two are still in a relationship.[85][91] On June 15, 2009 at the UK premiere of Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen, Fox stated, "I'm what you would call single".[92] However, Fox was later seen with Green and the media is reporting that the two are in a relationship again.[93]

Fox is good friends with Jennifer Blanc, Kellan Rhude, Jennifer's Body co-star Amanda Seyfried, Michael Biehn and Transformers co-star Shia LaBeouf.[94] Fox is both a fan of comic books, anime, and video games. She has said that her interest in art began when she was 12 years-old when she watched animated shows on Adult Swim on Cartoon Network.[95] Fox's favorite artist is Michael Turner, Fox's favorite comic book by Turner is Fathom, which she describes as "one of her longtime obsessions".[96] Fox has two dogs, including a Pomeranian named after the punk-icon Sid Vicious.[94][97]

Fox has openly stated that she's taken drugs but "...that's how [she] knows [she doesn't] like them." Fox also said that "Cocaine is back with a vengeance ... Celebrities aren't trying to hide it, except when people have camera phones," and commenting that "I know about five people who aren't on drugs today, and I'm one of them."[98][99][100] Fox has also openly stated that she supports the legalization of marijuana, saying "I don't even think of it as a drug -- it should be legalized," and continuing with "When they do, I'll be the first person in line to buy my pack of joints," and "I can't tell you how much bullshit I've been through because I will openly say that I smoke weed. People look at it like it's this crazy, hippy, fucked-up thing to do. And it's not. I hope they legalize it."[101][102][103][104][105]

In an interview with GQ Magazine, Fox claimed that when she was 18 years-old that she fell in love and sought to establish a relationship with a female stripper. Fox used the experience to illustrate her belief that, "all humans are born with the ability to be attracted to both sexes."[106] In May, 2009 Fox confirmed her bisexuality.[107]

And I'm really on this situation right now, I'm trying to fix this up."[111] In an interview with GQ magazine Fox showed interest in Olivia Wilde saying, "I could see myself in a relationship with a girl - Olivia Wilde is so sexy she makes me want to strangle a mountain ox with my bare hands. She's mesmerizing."[112][113]
