Megan Fox: beat it Lohan!
Hollywood actress, Megan Fox, did a revealing interview with Esquire
magazine and in it she slammed fallen star Lindsay Lohan. Fox spoke
about Lohan in the past tense, like the drug addicted actress had
already overdosed and died. She basically branded Lohan a failure, due
to the many high profile train wrecks that comprises her personal and
professional career.
Fox stated regarding Marilyn Monroe and Lindsay Lohan, "I
started reading about her and realized that her life was incredibly
difficult. It's like when you visualize something for your future. I
didn't want to visualize something so negative. She wasn't powerful at
the time.
She was sort of like Lindsay [Lohan]. She was an actress
who wasn't reliable, who almost wasn't insurable.... She had all the
potential in the world, and it was squandered. I'm not interested in
following in those footsteps. Ava Gardner. She had power. She was a
broad. She got what she wanted and said what she needed."

Oh snap! After Fox went off and upset Lohan, she tried to pretty up
what she had stated. Fox issued a new quote on the matter via her
Facebook page stating, "I attempted to draw parallels between
Lindsay and Marilyn in order to illustrate my point that while Marilyn
may be an icon now, sadly she was not respected and taken seriously
while she was still living. Both women
were gifted actresses, whose
natural talent was lost amongst the chaos and incessant media scrutiny
surrounding their lifestyles and their difficulties adhering to studio
schedules etc."
Fox further stated, "I intended for this to be a factual
comparison of two women with similar experiences in Hollywood.
Unfortunately it turned into me offering up what is really much more of
an uneducated opinion. It was most definitely not my intention to
criticize or degrade Lindsay. I would never want her to feel bullied,
as she does not deserve that. I was not always speaking eloquently
during this interview and this miscommunication is my fault."
Lindsay Lohan: what, does she think she's hotter
than me or something
Megan, it was more fun when you'd slapped Lindsay with your
comments. Apart of the discord between the women originates with the
fact they both starred in "Confessions Of A Teenage Drama Queen"
where Lohan was mean to Fox. Ironically, Fox went on to become the more
famous actress.
The two later vied for the same role in the now failed
"Liz & Dick" television movie that was released last
year. Fox withdrew her name from contention after public friction with
Lohan, who was given the job to the project’s detriment. Critics and
audiences ended up savaging the film. Fox better be careful. When
Lindsay gets drunk she likes popping people in the face.
