Megan Fox has blown apart Hollywood's casting couch culture - insisting several leading film directors have tried to bed her since she found fame

The Transformers beauty has attended a number meetings with top moviemakers to discuss potential roles.

But she was shocked when they made moves on her during the interviews - and immediately turned them down.

Fox, who refuses to name names, tells GQ magazine, "Any casting couch s**t I've experienced has been since I've become famous. It's really so heartbreaking. Some of these people! Like Hollywood legends.

"You think you're going to meet them and you're so excited, like, 'I can't believe this person wants to have a conversation with me,' and you get there and you realise that's not what they want, at all. It's happened a lot this year actually."

And Fox also has a way of dealing with male co-stars who flirt with her - she delivers a damaging blow to their ego in front of the entire crew.

She says, "There are some guys, talking about actors who have been in the business for a while, who are very egocentric and have been able to sleep with a lot of girls for whatever reason, and because they don't know me they think I'm going to be this little cupcake, this Marilyn Monroe type who's going to bat my eyes and be like a receptacle for them.

"I just shut them down immediately, right in front of people. It's been so long since someone has told them no, they don't really know how to deal with it. Because of this non-reality they live in, they're f**ked up, psychologically."


Interesting read, still reckon id pull her 8).

ach boo hoo.  It's hard to have sympathy for someone who isnt shy about posing in some of the pictures she has, gets nose jobs done etc.  Basically she has used her looks and sexual appeal to further her career, make money etc and sure why not but when you do that you can hardly complain about being asked out. 

It's a bit like a woman wearing a low cut top or skirt up to her arse and then complains about the men look at her.

I'd say she'd pass the test alright. In fairness to the directors you wouldn't be human if you didn't chance your arm.

i seen her being interviewed either on the red carpet b4 oscars or golden globes and she came off as a real twat.... granted she is unreal looking but she keep saying how ugly she was and how everyone was else was so pretty.....
I'm trying to decide on a really meaningful message..

full back

Super looking woman, but it is a bit of a joke that she is complaining about this

I would say if she hadnt made it as big she would be doing her fair share of 'meeting directors' on the casting couch
