![Shia LaBeouf, Megan Fox 'Transformers' Behind The Scenes [+Subtitles]](/img/n.gif)
I just love her. Hollywood has plastered this mindless, soft-headed sex symbol image on Megan that no one really acknowledges that there's a genuinely likeable person behind all that undeniable beauty. Sometime in the future, I'd like her to be taken seriously as an actress. Give her some legitimate material to work with, for the love of Christ. She deserves more than what she's getting.
Completely agree. It isn´t her fault that they always cast her as "hot popular girl", if they just gave her more serious roles I am sure she could pull it off.
RT. So true.Would love to see her break out of the role Hollywood has cast her in.
Yes, very well said.
There are more than meets the eye in her
I think that if she wants to, she'll do it. She doesn't need anyone.
I hate that people call her a "dumb actress" maybe she doesn't make grade A films all the time, but that doesn't deem someone as unintelligent. I actually find her very smart and extremely well spoken.
Marci Otto ok she's not an idiot, that's just an exaggerated judgement. but she isn't THAT smart either. it's a whole package kind of thing with her looks and voice, but it appears to me she isn't too eager for an introspective role if you look at her IMDB.
+Marci She's just shallow, that's why.
Most if not ALL 'CELEBS' are mind controlled SLAVES. (MPD)
Dude she was in transformers. This movie just changed my life and my thinking capacity. I just love her.
Miscellaneous Miscellaneous how do you know that she isn’t “that smart”?, watch Joe Rogan’s podcast with Bryan Callen or just type up ‘Megan Fox embarrassed Bryan Callen’. And I think you’ll find your ignorant opinion will change. Just because she’s attractive doesn’t mean that she can’t be smart aswel.
Im surprised at how much other people are surprised to see Megan Fox has intelligence and personality. It's sad. We shouldn't be so closed minded.
She's also a dude
She's also dumb as a rock! Ppl thinking that this is intelligence only demonstrates that ure not all that bright. She's believes in magic rocks and astrology.... yeah so smart....
Jesse Gonzo By rocks , do you mean crystals ? Sorry , but you’re the dumb one here...
MistakenMystery how she’s been a woman all her life? having a huge adam’s apple is okay everyone is different
@@Daisika
I am an agnostic and I think everyone can have their beliefs, i believe there is on the sky smth way bigger
And my friend 'believes' in aliens and maybe ghosts , unicorn, or uses it as a joke, methaphore and thats just fine i think
Some ppl r weirded out that i don't speak much or that i didn't have a bf, and i dont want to get married nor have kids
I want as much as it sounds cliche, to be free, to sing, dance , paint, swim , travel
There are a lot of beautiful things in life that r way important and better
I think she's very Marilyn Monroe-esque, in the sense that she seems like she's always playing a character and that her public persona isn't who she really is. I mean, maybe it's not that extreme, but I do feel like she has a wall up, cause people have always dismissed her simply because she is intimidatingly beautiful.
true
Yes, that's so true. She must be an ESFP or an ESTP at myers briggs personality types. Love her
Jaimee Marshall I don't think so she always seems to be herself people just don't actually listen or pay attention to it
Jaimee Marshall I've always thought that too
@@isabelsuarez2435 i think she's an INFP
she's so much more intelligent than people give her the credit for! everyone needs to watch this and understand that she's not all looks. there's real passion and a heart behind all that
She's very hard to work with though, that's why no one wants to work with her.
Enrique Torres and what do you mean by that exactly?
shes just a pain, shes always acting smart and always has an attitude. Shes beautiful, smart, and talented just as an actress should be, but shes not good enough that she can be a pain and still keep a role like Christian Bale. Hes very hard to work with, but he gets the job done.
well when I said she acts smart, i wasnt neccesarly saying that she isnt smart. i was trying to basically say she has attitude, dont take what I said originally the wrong way, I was simply just answering the question, why dont people think shes intelligent, or a good actor. Shes all of the above, as well as beautiful, its just that she has an attitude, and the thing with producers is that they wont deal with anything if they have to. I still think she is extremly beautiful and talented.
Enrique Torres wow you know her that well? you grew up with her? you lived with her? wow you know so much about her. lucky you :)
I love you Megan. You deserve greatness and justice . You’re talented, intelligent, and a beautiful soul.
ily gabby !!
It's sad that so many people dislike her. She seems like a genuinely decent person who just happens to be effortlessly beautiful.
Now she is drinking her boyfriends blood so people were right about her 🤣🤣
Her eyebrows are on fleek always been on fleek . Her eyebrows are life.
omg yes!!
she's the reason I started to grow my brows out and draw them super dark lmaoo also the reason I decided to get microbladed
Nguyen Nguyen For real me too 🤣 Thicker eyebrows are the best 🙌
Give her a passionate dramatic role where she can pull out what she really has inside, in a good movie, and she will surprise you. She's also very expressive.
Looking at people who hold such beauty makes one want to cry. It is unbelievable.
PersonalityDeficit87 Totally agree. Given the fact that we have to die, we should do it naturally without ageing haha
+Manny 2P Although I agree with you that she is unbeliavably beautiful, I had a girl (swedish) in my class that looks exactly like Megan does in this video, but Megan Fox has had a nosejob and lip filler to look the way she does in this video. She didn't become super famous until after her first movie in transformers. And yes people that hold this sort of beauty makes me wanna cry as well.
Megan.. She's interesting, Not everyone is interesting.
Ok
I feel sorry for physically beautiful people sometimes. It distracts people from possibly wonderful personalities. I also dont think she is a bad actress, shes never taken a challenging role.
Jennifer's body is her best imo
@Sophia Lock because they never thought she'd make a good character because she was never anything more than her beauty in everyone's eyes.....that's the problem
It’s not that she’d never taken a challenging role, she was never given the chance for one.
@@peacechickification exactly!!
You don't have to feel sorry,I feel sorry for our stupid and closed-minded society , they're attacking her and literally don't give her air to breathe. This world is so judgemental,I'm not trying to be pessimistic here but someone had to say it,so don't feel sorry for ones who are judged by our society,feel sorry for people who are the ones who judging others bcuz they aren't happy with themselves :)
Why has she to be THIS gorgeous?
she should thank her plastic surgeon for that..
***** Nice try, you sound jealous to me. She was pretty before her nose job (which is the only plastic surgery she did), the only thing she has done is lip injections and cheek injections which doesn´t count as surgery. I also want to add that injections like juvederm/restylane aren´t a permanent thing like an operation, they need to be redone since they are consumed by the body. Do your research before pointing out things.
Anika Dewan Well said.
Anika Dewan fdfwdqhuuil
Anna Stangl people say she is pretty bcuz of plastic surgery but honestly she was prettier before she had plastic surgery.
She´s actually shy ! 😮
eu sou fã da Megan Fox
She's actually a dude
MistakenMystery um no she ain’t .
A Bk definitely is not
Yes she is she also admitted it she’s a reserved person
To be that physically attractive is quite difficult to be taken seriously it seems...Because you're it with that face and it seem not to matter whether she's good or not.
She is not only HOT! She is smart, down to earth, simple and not as many hollywood stars egocentric! What a girl!
She looks so stunning here
yeah and always
If you only knew the truth...
MistakenMystery why are you going through all the comments to comment ‘she’s a dude’.. are you okay? seems like a weird way to spend your time. if you’re gonna be a troll at least come up with something interesting and preferably believable.
Amy Jennings you must be fun at parties
@@amyjennings899 right
She's such a Taurus! Classy, good hearted, and very intelligent. Love you Megan
Right?! My thought exactly.
Astrology is not real
She’s such a precious and kind hearted human being. My god I love her and look up to her so much.
Grown woman don't like her because she's gorgeous
Grown men in the industry and outside have showed pedophilic ,pornographic,objectifying attitudes towards her,shamelessly since the very beginning.When she felt it was too much ,she spoke and she was clearly mobbed and marked from the lower workers in the industry too. Mr Spielberg ,who apperently can find offensive a common,surely idiotic phrase about the director being like Hitler but the same director making her wash his sportcar in his house as an audition tape, for a movie where she was clearly just meat, doesn't make him feel ashamed of letting a young woman being undignified ,mobbed like that,and than firing her instead of putting the director at his place.And don't shift the problem from men to few women,who have a bit of right to be tired of those kind of portraits,where she has a bit of responsibility as well .
Ikr it's embarrassing
Feneco feneco i agree 100%
Grown women don't like her because we were taught to hate and compete with each other
@@phophia Agreed. Women are taught to compete with each other when in reality, we feel the urges to bond most strongly. Megan Fox is amazing and it's a shame that society looked down on her for being beautiful. Girls can never win
she is literally the most beautiful woman i've ever seen. ah i wish nothing but happiness for her
ur also beautiful!
she deserves so much more credit for who she is as a person instead of just her appearance. yes she's incredibly beautiful but i feel like that's all people really know her for.
This was peak Megan Fox. The prime time to have her if you invent a time machine.
I thought her voice was a little deep... but it's actually kinda high pitched omg
It's so sad that she's so misunderstood :( she seems like she's got a lot of substance but at the same time a real fragility. Kind of cold and aloof because of SO many people automatically judging her, but she lights up so much about really sweet innocent things :)
I feel like mostly men in the media and entertainment industry have created this narrative where they say women hate her because they envy her (I don't deny that some women might) but she's got mostly female fans, it's men that hate her for her guts of speaking up when something terrible was happening to her. Hollywood needs to apologize to her, she needs the roles she deserves because apart from being gorgeous, she's honestly a really good actress.
When I think of Megan Fox, the first thing that comes to mind is definitely the most beautiful woman that I have ever seen. Like... ever. Even when I was young, I always said that I wanted to grow up to look like Megan Fox. Never happened but well, I have yet to encounter and actress or model that I personally find prettier than her. In my middle school years she was that actress that everyone identified with just this amazing female beauty. Watching this... I definitely need to agree with the comments below. This girl is /way/ more than just a pretty face. In her screen test she comes of as /extremely/ eloquent. Definitely one of the most well spoken screen tests I have ever seen. Great job Megan. I guess it is possible to have it all: beauty, talent AND brains.
okay this is one of the best videos i've ever seen, just to watch her sitting there and talking about her life like it's so beautiful i could watch this all day
I love her voice
2009 and already so articulate when breaking down why she was typecast as the mean girl. Megan Fox is brilliant.
2022 first time watching this
I am obsessed with her she is just so intellectual
Lol she's "that cat lady who goes out with cat hair all over her pants" lmao! Me too, Megan, me too!
For some reason I sense a lot of pain in her voice but Idk, I love her so much😇
she's actually quite real and warm...her voice is really sweet with the slight trace of southern accent..fox has a siren look but a sugary voice.
love her!
She is such a sweetheart.
I want to cry and hug her.
She's so pretty it hurts and she's really sweet you can tell she's nice in real life
Megan Fox, if only you could've seen the amount of positivity in the comment section..Love the good vibes that most people write!! Keep it up guys🙌🏼!!
That was great. Tbh, I assumed she would be vapid, but she was much more insightful and nuanced than I expected. But then, I suppose that just reflects badly on me, eh?
yes
Yep a reflection of yourself
She said i want to sleep in a city that never wakes up but, Dorothy was right tho..
THAT REFERENCE THOUGH
Old yellow bricks if I remember correctly can someone confirm
@@anthonywilson9133 Can confirm
i love how the comments from years ago defended her (as we should)
Her voice 😭😭💓 omg I will crying ❤️😢
She's smart, funny, calming and gorgeous! Fierce.
My god she's so insanely beautiful. And I've always loved her personality. I think she'd be a very fun person to hang out with, and I don't mean because she's so gorgeous. She just seems nice, interesting, and a total blast.
is it possible to be that beautiful?!
with plastic surgery (which she fully got)--yes.
oxforddictonary That interview was done before Megan did any plastic surgery! She's ruined herself now!
oxforddictonary way before plastic surgery, dude c’mon
Adam Leo Sorry to tell you but megan had already done surgery at that time. she started doing this in 2007. At the beginning her transformation was not extreme.
KENZA surgery or not she’s still freaking hot 😭
A) She seems like a very intelligent woman, and B) WHY DON'T MY LIPS LOOK LIKE THAT
Megan Fox is so so pretty even on a Black and White screen. She has great sense of humour as well
She’s so real I love her so much. 💝💕✨ Hollywood didn’t deserve her. She seems like a good person.
Wow I've miss judge her.
Why is her little handwave when she says "and a guy" so cute and relatable 😂 love this lady. So glad she's making a comeback
it's so obvious grown women are critical of her bc she's literally the epitome of the male fantasy.. men want her and teenage girls aspire to be her but for the women in her age group that will never have what she has, they get jealous and project their insecurities.. megan didn't deserve any of the hate she got
I have been looking for this everywhere!
-MEEEGAANNNN... you left your jacket.
- No!
- But your jacket though.
I know wtf ur doing!
Wow. I always assumed she was a dull "bimbo" like many of her characters on screen. She actually seems genuine and interesting, in so many ways. You really can never judge a book by its cover.
She only played a bimbo once. In Jennifer’s body. What are you talking about
She seems like the beautiful mother type. The best type!
she is so much more than her looks. it's a real shame some people only see her for her beauty.
Teenage girls accept her gorgeous presence, naturally angering older women who falter in her shadow.
Of course, if you're confident and accepting of yourself, you wouldn't have these petty issues with anybody else.
I totally agree. When you love yourself and find beauty in yourself it is not hard to be happy for others and acknowledge their beauty. She is a beautiful woman❤
It's grown disgusting men in Hollywood who made her career go rotten .
@@rubyred2874 exactly
I definetely agree with you
I absolutely have always loved Megan and what she stands for and it hasn't changed one bit in over 15 years
God she's so beautiful
i LOVEEE how shes always sooo honest and straightforward. she tells teh story just how it is :)
i love her :)
If anyone could play marilyn munroe it would be megan fox not michelle williams. what were they thinking!
I've been binge watching M3gan Fox this quarantine
She's literally the modern day marilyn, undeniably beautiful, but everyone is too focused on that to see that who she is inside is even more interesting and beautiful
She's a cat person therefore I love her
i love watching her talk
Poor Girl. She seems very smart but some reason Hollyweird doesn't want to show that.
Of course they wouldn't want an honest, smart, spiritual, simple and brave girl, that spoke up for herself. They thought she can't be more than being pretty. I am somewhat glad that they shunned her as she might have gone towards the dark hole most went. Now is her time to flourish, I hope a great director/ producer give her a great script that is challenging but worthy for her to showcase her talent. I hope her star continue to shine brighter from henceforth. Go Megan❤️
I love how she finishes every question with this cute little face. lol
I just love watching her speak. Mesmerizing
This is your Monday morning reminder that you are powerful beyond measure, that you are capable of pretty much anything you are willing to work for, and that you could change your life today. 🤲🏻
"i get what i want. and this winter break... i want jordan"
her voice omg is so cute & adorable
Everyone wants to be with her she is such a sweet person and just do fun things with her
Lmao I am that person that goes out with cat hair all over her pants too x'D
She's honestly very well spoken, in addition to being extravagantly gorgeous. I think her acting career has been the same as any other person who has pursued a similar career; one of evolution and improvement.
I feel so sad for her for some reason. I get the feeling that she just wants to be heard but people don't take her seriously.
she's so smart... Damn... She's not even superficial, she's actually like, original and unique.
watching this in 2022 for the first time and i know it’s 12 years old but wow i did not think i could be more similar to this woman
This era of Magen😍🙏🏼😭🦇😍😍😍😘
Megan Denise fox she is my idol and role-model in my life. Because she is very inspirational and intelligent woman. also she gives hope and souppert to others
It’s 2021 and I’m here
I totally remember Fun in the Sun! I loved that movie.
She is a GREAT actress. if she wasnt good she wouldn't have gotten any of the parts that she has gotten.i admire her because she ia normal. she isn't some actress who denies the movie wasn't good. she says things couldve been better. overall she is a wonderful person.
I know this is old but I love Megan. A big role model for me.
I love her! I always love seeing actresses when they aren't playing the dumb mean evil whatever character. All of them are of course really intelligent and I think you have to be to make in the acting world so why would you be surprised to see she's actually smart and has a good heart?
her persona made up by the media is so different from her real self. she's so nice and really genuine. love her voice!
Her voice is so adorable
2:05-2:20 was eargasm tbh
Wow....this interview mad me love much more. I read Gen13 too. I'm impressed!!!
HOLIDAY IN THE SUN OMG I WATCHED THAT ALL THE TIME
She's my astro twin and YES she's not just a dumb pretty actress. I'm very perceptive and I can see that she is a creative and eccentric being that just wants to explore her creativity.If she wanted to just pass by on her looks I'm more than sure she could easily take the Kardashian route.
in the film industry there are media codes used to create a visually presentable and believable portrayal of certain situations for example if there was a small kinda chubby brunette female being bullied the chances are the film have chosen a tall skinny attractive female to play the bully ..it may be shallow but it's audience expectations
I love they way she moves her lips!
I love the sound of her voice!
I love her movies!
She is an awesome actress! THUMBS UP!!
I love this interview.
Omg she liked comics?! Like actually read them?! Omg I'm in love!!!!!!!! Ugh. Omg. 😍😍😍😍
She's so ridiculously pretty! And she seems like a nice person, although I sense a slight sadness in her.
Megan Fox is so beautiful. I fell in love with her at first sight.
I am inlove with her voice, it's so soothing
I’ll never forget seeing Jennifer’s Body when I was fifteen and how her & the movie had such a major impact on me (and definitely made me finally go “okay, it’s true, I am 100% bisexual” lol). Really glad that she is receiving the respect & recognition that she’s always deserved. I just love her. Btw I don’t know what it is about the face she makes at 2:20 that makes me swoon. Kind of a blink & you’ll miss it moment.
she's a cat lover"that cat lady who goes out with cat hair all over her pants" 😂😂😂😹😹😸 me too Megan!
does anyone feel like she is so lost and unconnected to what her life is and why it is that way?
I adore Megan, always have. Great interview! :)
La voz de megan me relaja un montón es tan linda 🤗
