Megan Fox quotes:

I like the bad-boy types. Generally the guy I'm attracted to is the guy in the club with all the tattoos and nail polish. He's usually the lead singer in a punk band and plays guitar. But my serious boyfriends are relatively clean-cut, nice guys. So it's strange.

I personally always find something really scary about watching little girls learning to manipulate their dads by baby talking. Then they grow up and use the same technique on their boyfriends or husbands. That scares me because it's just so sick on so many levels.

What people don't realize is that fame, whatever your worst experience in high school, when you were being bullied by those ten kids in high school, fame is that, but on a global scale, where you're being bullied by millions of people constantly.

I didn't get along with Lindsay Lohan on 'Confessions Of A Teenage Drama Queen', but you have to consider that we were 16-year-old girls. I haven't seen Lindsay since then, but I imagine she's grown and become a different person. I know I have.

I have no problem with commitment - you can't have a real relationship without it. I can flip on a switch in my brain, and even if the next Brad Pitt is standing next to me, I won't look at him. But I can also turn that switch off, and then I collect attractive boys.

I think people are born bisexual and the make subconscious choices based on the pressures of society. I have no question in my mind about being bisexual. But I'm also a hypocrite: I would never date a girl who is bisexual, because that means they also sleep with men, and men are so dirty that I'd never sleep with a girl who had slept with a man.

I'm the biggest nerd - I love comic books and stuff like that! I don't have any friends who are actresses. I only had one girlfriend when I was growing up. Most of my friends were boys. I was such a tomboy. I enjoyed doing guy things.

There's a misconception that maybe I'm overly confident or a little vapid or that I am a stereotypical, bratty, spoiled girl who doesn't have much to bring to the table other than how people perceive her physically.

When you're in something as successful as 'Transformers,' you can't use it as a sales piece for your ability as an actress because it's all about the special effects.

When you think about it, we actors are kind of prostitutes. We get paid to feign attraction and love. Other people are paying to watch us kissing someone, touching someone, doing things people in a normal monogamous relationship would never do with anyone who's not their partner. It's really kind of gross.

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.

I hate receiving compliments; I hate being told I'm talented or people think I'm going to be a movie star. I always feel that it's forced and fake.

I started drawing when I was about 2, mostly pictures of my mother and my sister. When I got into school, instead of taking the notes that I should have been taking, I was drawing in all of my notebooks. It was an artwork thing for me at first.

I have the libido of a 15-year-old boy. My sex drive is so high. I'd rather have sex with Brian all the time than leave the house. He doesn't mind.

Every time someone uses a bathroom and they flush, all the bacteria is shot into the air.

I like funny guys and those, for some reason, tend to be nerdy guys.

I've never even come close to having a one-night stand.

There's a million people I could name who are more deserving of the parts that I get and the life that I'm living.

My mom lived with me until I started making enough money to support myself. I was asking her to leave the entire time. I'd been ready to move out since I was, like, 14.

Films don't hold the answers I'm looking for... Would you not be so much more interested in finding out that Bigfoot existed than in watching a really good movie?

When I sit down to talk to men's magazines, there's a certain character that I play. She's not fully fleshed out - she doesn't have her own name - but she shows up to do men's-magazine interviews.

I always want to be a part of ensembles. Besides it feeling safer, I think it's a more fun environment to work in. To have a bunch of people collaborating on something, it takes the pressure off of each individual.

I have to really enjoy someone's personality, not just their looks, before I'll kiss them.

I think all women in Hollywood are known as sex symbols. That's what our purpose is in this business. You're merchandised, you're a product. You're sold and it's based on sex. But that's okay. I think women should be empowered by that, not degraded.

When you're doing a film, you're on a set and you have retakes and you have time to get it right. And on 'SNL' it's just go, go, go. If you can't read the cue cards or miss your mark, you're just left to sort of screw up. So there's a lot more pressure doing a live TV show.

I still like the run and gun action movies and how truly dangerous it can be to make these films.

Women tear each other apart.

When you become a celebrity, the world owns you and your image.

I'm horrible to live with. I don't clean. My clothes end up wherever I take them off. I forget to flush the toilet.

I want people to know me through the movies I do. I want to be judged on that. If you start becoming famous for your personal life, that's when your career goes away.

I think once you enter the dating world and you realise it's nothing like those Disney movies you watched when you were a little girl, you just become more guarded.

If I ever lose a role because of my tattoos, I'll quit Hollywood and go to work at Costco.

I was raised to believe that you're safe in God's hands. But I don't feel safe with myself.

I loved 'Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.' It was such a big part of my childhood.

I've read the 'Book of Revelation' a million times. It does not make sense, obviously. It needs to be decoded.

I'm a passionate individual, and sometimes when I have strong feelings about a subject, I feel the need to express myself.

You never know when someone is videotaping you or trying to capture your image. I see how it makes some people crazy.

If I get stuck doing comic-book films for the rest of my life, I'll be really happy.

Armani is a fashion house that I think is iconic and beautiful.

My body parts are all I have left now that are only mine - the world owns everything else.

I've never really socialized; I've always been anti-social and preferred to be at home. I was never, even my late teens and early twenties, into clubs and parties and stuff like that.

Getting married was the best thing I've ever done.

I could see myself in a relationship with a girl; Olivia Wilde is so sexy she makes me want to strangle a mountain ox with my bare hands. She's mesmerizing.

Some girls love to go to the airport and have 50 paparazzi on them. I go to the airport and have a mental breakdown.

I don't like feeling out of control. I have to feel like I'm in control of my body.

I think I'm a different kind of role model for young girls.

I have no friends and I never leave my house.

I've lived the life of a 35-year-old since I was 18.

I'm very confident in how I project my personality.

My main weakness is nerves.

I don't like the sound of my voice.

Try and stay away from dairy - especially if you're a woman! It's really hard on your hormones.

I could go days, weeks, without talking to another human being.

I feel people think I'm almost like a robot - like an android I just don't really get portrayed as someone who has feelings or who is sympathetic like a self-absorbed ice queen.

Well let me tell you what [High School Musical] is really about. High School Musical is about this group of boys who are all being molested by the basketball coach, who is Zac Efron's dad. It's about them struggling to cope with this molestation. And they have these little girlfriends, who are their beards. Oh, and somehow there's music involved. You have to get stoned to watch it.

What distracts me from my reality is bigfoot. They are my celebrities.

I've read the Book of Revelation a million times. It does not make sense, obviously. It needs to be decoded.

My definition of beauty is simplicity, elegance, and sensuality. I think that when a woman is in harmony with herself and remains true to her values, she will glow naturally.

There are a couple of different types of food I eat a lot. I was raised in the South, in Tennessee, so I'm going to go with comfort food, soul food. I would probably start with collard greens and candied baby carrots and then have some biscuits and white gravy - and for dessert, probably blackberry cobbler.

I've never been a big believer in formal education.

I think most of us maintain some sort of fantasy in our minds that we are heroes, if only secretly, that we could really be amazing if only given a chance. That we could all be loved one day. You can always think of yourself as being transcendent or heroic. I think we all are.

I feel like it's impossible to please the hardcore comic book fans, because they'll never be happy no matter what you do.

Real crime-beat investigative journalism does seem to be really dwindling, especially in this age with everything being centered around iPhones. Everyone's a journalist today, essentially. Every pedestrian on the street has the potential of capturing a big story on their mobile device and then selling it and making a lot of money.

Everyone with an iPhone is a journalist in their own way now, especially because we live in a tabloid culture.

I like believing. I believe in all of these Irish myths, like leprechauns. Not the pot of gold, not the Lucky Charms leprechauns. But maybe was there something in the traditional sense? I believe that this stuff came from somewhere other than peoples imaginations....

I have a lot more fun making comedies because there's a levity on the set, and I find it difficult to go to work and, you know, cry for 12 hours.

I have the libido of a 15-year-old boy

I'm self-loathing, introverted, and neurotic.

We live in a world where losing your phone is more dramatic than losing your virginity

I think that I'm so psychotic and so mentally ill that if I could tap into that I could do something really interesting.

It is very difficult to be under the microscope every moment of every day. Everything that leaves your mouth becomes this sensationalized news story, no matter what your intentions were when you first said it, so it becomes overwhelming.

Hold your head high, and your middle finger higher.

To be outspoken, or different at all, is a problem for women.

I've actually stopped tinting my windows because the paparazzi look for trucks and cars with supertinted windows.

I've learned that being a celebrity is like being a sacrificial lamb. At some point, no matter how high the pedestal that they put you on, they're going to tear you down.

I resent having to prove that I'm not a retard.

I can cook, but I also want everything to look beautiful on the plate - then I get upset when people eat it. Everyone just tears through it, and that makes me sad. It's not a rewarding experience for me to cook.

I would like to uncover the secrets of the universe.

I am a stepmother to the fullest extent.

Self-loathing doesn't keep me from being happy. But that doesn't mean I don't struggle.

As soon as you tell me to do one thing, I do the opposite. As soon as someone tells me not to get any more tattoos, I have this intense fire burning inside me to cover myself with them. I don't care if it's self-destructive. I just have that need to rebel.

I don't want to have to be like a Scarlett Johansson - who I have nothing against - but I don't want to have to go on talk shows and pull out every SAT word I've ever learned to prove, like, 'Take me seriously, I am intelligent, I can speak.'

Sometimes I say things that I think are obviously sarcastic and people take them quite literally.

People who don't like me talk about it as though I'm trash because I have tattoos. I find that insane because it's 2008, not the 1950s. Tattoos aren't limited to sailors. It's a form of art I find beautiful. I love it.

I've always at least tried to be self-deprecating when I say anything about myself. As long as you set the bar low, it will keep people from putting you on a pedestal, so they can't knock you off.

I'm just really confident sexually, and I think that sort of oozes out of my pores. It's just there. It's something I don't have to turn on.

I always bring cash for tips, and I never give less than $20. I used to work in a smoothie shop, so I know the value of a tip.

People compare me to Angelina Jolie, and she's so serious and stoic. I'm the opposite.

No one ever gets tired of loving. But everyone gets tired of waiting, assuming, hearing lies, and hurting.

I married my husband who is thirteen years older, so I will always be a trophy wife for him.

I think what I regret is that I would rather do something like that when I was a more established actress and I really had proven myself first. Now, people are still unsure whether I can act or not. I just don't want to be one of those girls who are playing off the show's popularity.

I hate doing photo shoots.

Having been in a relationship since I was 18, I'm very domestic, but I don't enjoy cooking for myself. I don't mind cooking for other people. But I don't like cleaning or washing dishes, although I don't mind doing laundry.

I don't really resent being on the red carpet as much as I do having to deal with the paparazzi.

I don't need someone else's power. I'm obtaining my own.

I think you accidentally learn things in high school that turn out to be life lessons when you are able to step back a bit and study them in more depth.

I've done one movie. And it's not a movie I want to stand on as far as acting ability goes. I mean, I'm not going to win an Oscar anytime soon. I'm not Meryl Streep.

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'm pretty sure I'm a doppelganger for Alan Alda. I'm a trannie; I'm a man.

I feel people think I'm almost like a robot - like an android... I just don't really get portrayed as someone who has feelings or who is sympathetic... like a self-absorbed ice queen.

Angelina Jolie was always a Method actress. She'd been nominated for Golden Globes before she ever did 'Tomb Raider.'

I would really love to go on an archaeological dig.

My biggest regret is that I've assisted the media in making me into a cartoon character. I don't regret what has happened to me, but I regret the way I have dealt with it.

I love the beach, and I love sunshine.

I'm not a 'sexy' 'beautiful' woman. It takes a lot of work to make me look like a girl.

I'm not a big family person. I'm more of a loner.

I booked 'Transformers' having no clue what I was doing. And then, all of a sudden, it was like: 'You've got to get your game together fast.' It sucks, but I'm trying.

I was raised Catholic. I went to Catholic school for 12 years.

I believe in all of these Irish myths, like leprechauns. Not the pot of gold, not the Lucky Charms leprechauns. But maybe was there something in the traditional sense? I believe that this stuff came from somewhere other than people's imaginations.

People expected 'Jennifer's Body' to make so much money. But I was doubtful. The movie is about a man-eating, cannibalistic lesbian cheerleader, and that pretty much eliminates middle America. It's obviously a girl-power movie, but it's also about how scary girls are. Girls can be a nightmare.

I think it's perfectly acceptable not to run with cliques.

I don't follow fashion. I need people to style me because I'm pretty clueless about it and I don't really care. I pretty much wear the same outfit every day when I'm not working.

Boys in their twenties are a waste of time. They have nothing to offer conversationally; they're immature. I feel like I have a better shot with someone in his thirties.

Sarcasm doesn't translate in print at all.

Having an infant is difficult. It's a lot of work, and I didn't hire any help because I overestimated my own abilities.

Wonder Woman is lame. She flies around in an invisible jet, but she's not invisible. I don't get it.

I try to live with the idea that karma is a very real thing. So I put out what I want to get back.

I'm not a lesbian. I just think that all humans are born with the ability to be attracted to both sexes.

If you're billed as a comedian, people will accept anything you say as light-hearted and not with intent behind it.

I basically read every book ever written about Marilyn Monroe.
