Megan Fox Always Gives the Best Soundbites

by Kaitlin Reilly

This former Transformers star just snagged a major magazine cover, but it's what's inside the pages of this magazine that I'm excited about. Megan Fox's August 2014 cover of Cosmopolitan was just released on the magazine's Twitter account, and while the photo features Megan looking as gorgeous as ever, the best part of her cover is that it means we'll get to read a brand new interview with the celebrity. And why is that so exciting, you ask? Because Megan Fox never fails to make herself sound absolutely nutty in her interviews. Seriously. It's fantastic.

Despite popular opinion, I actually think that she's a decent actress — Transformers may not have been her place to shine, but she did exactly what Michael Bay wanted her to do in those films: Look good, and make Shia LaBeouf appear human. Plus, she killed it as the popular-girl-turned-succubus in the Diablo Cody-penned Jennifer's Body, a role that seemed tailor-made for her. Sure, she might not win an Oscar anytime soon, but she's hardly the eye candy joke that people make her out to be. One thing that she is, though, is a very candid interviewee. Megan is not really worried about what you think about her, which is actually pretty awesome. Her IDGAF attitude has given us a ton of gems, like the quotes below. You might not believe these words could come out of the future Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles star's mouth, but you'd be wrong.

Megan Fox on High School Musical :

Ok, 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.

Megan Fox on Her Self Image:

I am pretty sure I am a doppelganger for Alan Alda. I'm a tranny. I'm a man. I'm so painfully insecure. I'm on the verge of vomiting now. I am so horrified that I am here, and embarrassed. I'm scared.

Megan Fox on Michael Bay:

He’s like Napoleon and he wants to create this insane, infamous mad-man reputation. He wants to be like Hitler on his sets, and he is. He’s a nightmare to work for but when you get him away from set, and he’s not in director mode, I kind of really enjoy his personality because he’s so awkward. He has no social skills at all. It’s endearing to watch him. He’s vulnerable and fragile in real life and then on set he’s a tyrant.

Megan Fox on Robert Pattinson:

I would eat Rob Pattinson, so that I could steal some of that pretty. I wanna be pretty like he’s pretty.

Megan Fox on Her Tattoo of Husband Brian Austin Green's Name:

I wouldn’t regret [my "Brian" tattoo] if we weren’t together. I can always have a kid and name him Brian. There are options.

Megan Fox on Olivia Wilde:

Olivia Wilde is so sexy, she makes me want to strangle a mountain ox with my bare hands.

And there you have it. You can read more of Megan's crazy talk in August 2014's Cosmo, which hits news stands on July 8.
