One word in particular comes to mind when we think of Megan Fox: fierce.
She’s a talented actress who has taken on a variety of different roles and challenges.
She’s smart and has a strong sense of faith.
Basically, she’s a strong woman who isn’t afraid to do the unexpected.
So let’s take a closer look at the stunning transformation of this bonafide starlet throughout the years.
She knew from her toddler years that she was meant to be in the acting world.
My mom said it was the only thing I ever said I wanted to do.
Fox described in the same interview that her childhood was a bit lonely.
It wasn’t even a need to perform.
I just always wanted everyone’s attention to be focused on me."
Looking back, Fox better understands why the bullying happened.
I just mimicked all the b*tches I’d seen other people play on TV."
I never went out.
I had no friends.
I was just on my own in the apartment the whole time…I ran out of food.
I ran out of water.
I ran out of everything."
… Up until the very moment it happened I was really outgoing.
Now I’m really introverted.
And it’s not all that it seems."
When Fox looked back on this time, she had a better understanding of why she felt that way.
And I’m not.
You don’t ever really get past that."
The only hurdle was that Green was 30 years old, while Fox was just 18.
She “had to convince him” that their age gap wasn’t a big deal.
Green and Foxstarted datingshortly after, andgot married in 2010.
Green alluded to the short-lived split on his podcast in September 2017, saying, “Marriage is hard.
…We’ve had and have a great relationship and we’re just taking it day by day.”
Despite the drama, they have mostly stayed out of the spotlight.
As Fox toldElle, “I do not want to comment on my relationship, period.”
I was waiting for someone to defend me, but nobody did.
In 2007, a 21-year-old Fox booked Michael Bay’s newest film,Transformers.
…I know that the things they said about me in the crew letter were not true.
I just want you to understand that anything I’ve ever said negative about you in the press…
I should have kept that between you and I.'"
Both Fox and Bay showed there were no hard feelings, as the two worked together some years later.
She saw this happening, but was also aware of the difficulty in changing people’s perceptions.
… People anticipate a shallowness [from me].
They anticipate a self-centeredness and a lack of self-awareness."
She LOVES being pregnant
What is the one role that Fox loves more than anything?
Fox hadher first child, Noah, at 26 years old in 2012.
And then, just a year later, she waspregnant with babynumber two.
She and Green then had their third childin 2016.
As Foxshared withExtra, she is a big fan of being pregnant.
She said, “I feel great.
It is painful at parts.
I feel the overall process is an amazing one.
Growing up in Tennessee, she attended a Pentecostal church.
As sheshared withEsquire, she has been able to speak in tongues since the age of 8.
You know how palpable the energy is?
Whatever’s going on there, it’s for real.”
Fox went even further to describe herself and why she has gone to church.
She said, “I can’t stand pills.
I don’t like drinking.
I don’t like feeling out of control.
I have to feel like I’m in control of my body.
… You have to understand, there I feel safe.
I was raised to believe that you’re safe in God’s hands.
But I don’t feel safe with myself.”
I don’t care if it’s self-destructive.
I just have that need to rebel."
See how that turned out?
Maybe someone told her she shouldn’t work things out with Green during their split.
