Her Difficulty With Media Exposure

The exposure that Fox's breakthrough role brought was difficult for her to handle because she was a shy and insecure celebrity. It wasn't easy for her to adjust to the new life as a popular figure.

Her career made her a potential role model, which later resulted in turning her into a typecast. She did not welcome the idea of being a formal role model but still thinks she has the power to inspire young people.

Fox preferred portraying characters that are less involved in sensual scenes and also being a typecast. Craig Flaster once praised her comedic range even though she was labeled as a sex symbol.

Fox once became less prominent in the media because she starred in commercially unsuccessful movies. Then, her regret was allowing the media to portray her as a cartoon character.

Megan Fox Was Once Married

Fox first started dating Austin Green, an American actor, and a former rapper, in 2004. They met on the set for "Hope & Faith," and at the time, she was 18 years old.

Green was first turned off by her age and was reluctant to date her, but she convinced him that she was quite mature and responsible enough to handle a relationship with him. The pair kickstarted their romance, and by November 2006, they were engaged. Sadly, this whirlwind romance ended in 2009.
