Fox even interjects when asked if she wanted to follow in Jolie's footsteps of starting out as a sex symbol before taking on serious roles.
"Angelina Jolie was always a Method actress," she says. "She'd been nominated for Golden Globes before she ever did 'Tomb Raider'."
I think Megan is being very cool here.Celebrity-hysteria is way out of control, though. There seems to be an insatiable hunger for ever more young, pretty idols to put on pedestals, shower with gold, and then tear down and devour. I mean, Megan has been in two action movies, she is pretty, and suddenly she is a top-flight star? Come on.
It sounds like she is grounded though, for which I congratulate her. It's a good thing in any life, but the movie star business can be lethal if you're not, sometimes literally.

She was also in "How to Lose Friends and Alienate People" where, as in all her other movies, she was basically just eye candy.

Yeah, what ever happened to overbloated egotistical celebrities dissing everybody in hopes of looking cooler?
If a young, pretty and female movie star start talking with logic and respect, I don't wanna be one any more! So there!
What fun is it, to be famous and therefore popular, if you don't trample the "lesser people" for fun?
I hate to have to tell you this, Pascal - old buddy, old pal, old chum - but what she's saying here in this standard puff piece is what young up-and-coming stars do: that is, not slam powerful, well-connected, wealthy, uber-famous actors who could crush them if they chose. In no way does Megan Fox want even rumours circulating that she's said anything negative about Angelina Jolie.
These interviews are garbage anyway, they tell us about as much as a Letterman interview. Those things are as much a performance as anything else they do.
