Megan Fox: I Could Have Handled the Media Better

By Amber Sterling on June 12, 2010

LOS ANGELES — Megan Fox has a reputation for speaking her mind, but those days appear to be over.

"I don't want to open my mouth or speak anymore, because everything I say becomes scandalous," the 24-year-old actress tells Interview magazine. "It wears you out. So I'm a bit jaded. I don't read my own press, so I don't know what's being reported on a daily basis—I only hear about things when they reach a sort of Def-Con status and my publicist calls me because we have to do some damage control."

Last month, it was revealed that Fox would not appear in the third installment of Transformers, the Michael Bay franchise that turned her into a star. The brunette beauty insists it was her decision to leave, but many have speculated that her criticism of Bay in the media landed her a pink slip. Fox is willing to admit that she's handled the media badly at times.

"I do feel like, if anything, I've sort of made it worse," she explains to her interviewer, actor Zach Galifianakis. "In the past I've been reluctant to share any bits of truth about myself or to really let people in on my reality, so I have said some things to throw people off the scent of what's really going on in my life. So I have sort of aided the media in printing these misconceptions, which I regret."

"I've just come to the realization at this point that if I don't feel like sharing, then I'm just not going to share," Fox continues. "But I'm not going to go out of my way to mislead people or keep them at a distance, because that doesn't really get me anywhere either."

When it comes to dealing with fame, Fox says it can be "overwhelming" at times but she's in a good place.

"I see how it makes some people crazy," she says. "It's a strange thing. But I am really lucky. I don't understand it. I don't know how any of this has happened. I mean, I don't sit around and say, 'Gosh, I have to do this movie with this person.'

"I really, honestly, am much more focused on my personal life. I'd really like to have a family at some point. Not that I'm not focused on my career—of course I am. But I'm just at that place where I want to spend some time at home and on my family. And if a great project comes my way, then of course I'll take it. But I'm not actively out seeking something specific."
