Megan Fox is hot, fun and feisty — is that why women hate her? According to E! Online, the actress is good at saying weird stuff and creating buzz, but it rarely translates into ticket sales, especially when it comes to women. This weekend’s New York Times Magazine profile of the 23-year-old starlet describes how she skyrocketed to fame, but now is kind of stuck.
“Girls think I’m a slut, and I’ve been in the same relationship since I was 18. The problem is, if they think you’re attractive, you’re either stupid or a whore or a dumb whore. The instinct among girls is to attack the jugular.” What do you gals think? Does Megan come across as a slut? And do we hate that? I do think she’s right that sometimes women are intensely powerful when it comes to taking down other women. But she has also dug her own grave a bit in terms of giving herself a slutty image: her first big claim to fame was being in love with a stripper named Nikita that never really existed, and she’s also mentioned that she has her boyfriend’s name tattooed “next to my pie.”
But maybe it’s not the slut thing that’s the problem; maybe women are contemptuous of Megan because she seems to be portraying the sexpot that men want her to be. ”When I sit down to talk to men’s magazines, there’s a certain character that I play,” she told the Times. However, it seems that she doesn’t know how to turn off that persona and relate to women.
“I have to pull back a little bit now,” Megan said. ”I do live in a glass box. And I am on display for men to pay to look at me. And that bothers me. I don’t want to live that character.”

First off, the comments she made about Michael Bay (you know, the guy who made her) are so ungrateful and I was shocked to see what a little whiney b**** this c*** is when I read her interview where she compared Bay to Hitler. Hitler? Bitch, that is NOT a joke. You can try to pass it off as one, but it's not. Maybe there is a reason why Scarlett Johansson uses the knowledge she's learned from school. BECAUSE SHE'S EDUCATED. Therefore, you should take a crash course on Hitler...since you're so into television, maybe try watching the History channel? You'll find that Hitler was an a$$****. Not Bay. And you should be f****** grateful for the opportunity that he gave you stupid w****! Had it not been for him, you wouldn't be anybody. Megan, You are full of s***. Your comments are retarded, cocky, and totally STUPID. You know you're pretty. But that's all you are. No personality, no substance. You've tried to blame your unsuccessful acting career on women's jealousy. No, b****. It's your s***** acting and your attitude. We all know you are pretty. But you are a horrible c*** and that is what cancels your beauty leaving you with NOTHING. And stop pretending that your looks are natural. Thank the plastic surgery that made you as well. SO F*** YOU, F*** YOUR LAME A$$ FANS, AND CRAWL INTO A HOLE AND DIE!!!!!!!! Please leave your thumbs behind, though! Perphaps we could use them in a Frankenstein experiment with Hitler and shove them up his arse. F*** YOU GO DIE, YOU FAILED JOLIE COPY!

PeterBilt The Nature Boy Tue 06/16/09 5:41 PM Forget Rain. Why do all you girls hate on Megan Fox? She is the most talented actress since Vanessa Hudgens Reply: Um, why are you saying that? Vanessa Hudgens isn"t talented!! And Megan Fox is seriously overrated. Everyone treats her like some uncommon, rare beauty, but if all of you would open your eyes for a second, and wipe away her makeup, and also take away the presumed plastic surgery she has undergone, which most of us hardworking women have gone without, you would see she is no more special or intriguing than the next model. or store mannequin. Most of all those american Hollywod actresses allow themselves to follow The same standard of what is beautiful and compelling and attractive, and so they all appear too shallow with no induviduality. I mean actresses like Audrey Hepburn and Grace Kelly were much better. Audrey Hepburn had a sweet personality on and off screen, and worked with children in foreign countries face to face for years, And Grace Kelly was pure elegance. She married royalty. And what is Megan Fox doing? Just wiggling her possibly silicone butt in every movie she can get into. And her intelligence level, at least from what I've heard, is ridiculously low. She lets herself say these stupid things. In forty or fifty years, there will probably be no memory of her. just another "hot" body. Not unless she does something worthwhile and good and kind. Otherwise, she will be, quote, "as interesting as a wet carrot" when she gets older. That is why most women do not like Megan Fox. And as for me, I know for a fact, from spending a year stationed in Korea, that most Koreans cultural definition of beauty and what is desirable is different from the American definition. in other words, many of the Koreans,including the hot ones like Rain, don't find Megan Fox attractive. I heard this from some of their own mouths. they also say she is not very intelligent. They find short, delicate, pale skinned sweet tempered girls very very desirable. It drives them absolutely insane with lust. Nope, not at all like most famous women of this era or women like Megan Fox. And who are you to say all men just want a sexpot blowup doll that they can do their thing all over? I was very offended when I read that! There are actually some very nice guys who want a girl who is at least mildly intelligent and has some self respect.

I'm a gal and I don't hate her for her looks.If it weren't for all the plastic surgeries she'd just be average. It's the fact that women have to compete with someone about as talented, smart and "real" as a blow up doll.PS my bf doesn't find her attractive. She's nasty and full of herself. Using the term "retard" as she did, and talking about her life like she does made me dislike her.It's not jealousy. Hell I'd sleep with Angelina Jolie or Jessica Alba if I could!
