Megan Fox appeared on Entertainment Tonight to promote her new role as the thumbs spokesperson for Sharper Image, and I promise that I’m honestly not being cruel by posting these particular screencaps of the interview. Instead, I am aiming to illustrate that Megan is able to move her face like a relatively normal human being, which is a relief because I’ve been quite worried about her filler use of late. She’s such a pretty girl and really doesn’t need all that cosmetic enhancement, but anyway.
When we last spoke of Megan, she was busily ignoring a March report that originated in Star about an alleged pregnancy. In late April, E! news even reported that Megan was totally pregnant, but she never came out to confirm or deny this report either. So now Megan has been tasked with talking with Entertainment tonight about some new Sharper Image products, and the topic has come up again. In all fairness, interviewer Steve Jones was strictly forbidden to ask any personal questions but decided to work one in anyway. Here’s a bit of a transcript of the ET interview and a video clip as well:
Jones: “Do you know the ultimate gadget that every man wants? A baby.”
Fox: “A baby? Oh, I know where you’re going with this. Alright, go. What do you want to know?”
Jones: “Any plans to give anybody a baby?”
Fox: “You hear the grumbles… No, no.”
Fox’s publicist: “Stop, stop.”
Jones: “Okay well, either way, Megan, it was a pleasure talking to you.”
Jones: (later) “I’d like to formerly apologise to Ms. Fox for attacking her with the word baby. Thankfully, there was a publicist there to stop me.”
[From ET]
I can see why Megan would be uncomfortable with such questioning when she was specifically there to shill for her new endorsement, and Jones really shouldn’t have gone there when her publicist was on hand and had already explicitly requested that no personal questions be asked. I think Megan handled it well, and if she doesn’t want to discuss her womb, then she shouldn’t have to do so. It’s not like she’s a member of royalty whose only real job is to provide an heir, right? Leave Megan alone.
Meanwhile, Brian Austin Green has also been asked about his wife’s uterus as well while he was discussing his role in an upcoming Fox pilot, “The Asset.” He calls the rumors “interesting“:
Brian Austin Green has big plans for his upcoming two-year wedding anniversary with Megan Fox. They’ll be returning to Hawaii where they tied the knot in June 2010.
“I think we’ll be going back to where we got married. That’s sort of our thing,” the actor told PEOPLE Sunday at the Jaguar ALIVE Driving Experience in L.A. “Last year when we went, they had one tier of the same wedding cake that we had, and they decorated the room the same, so it was special all over again. They do it right.”
One thing the actor was less forthcoming about, though: persistent rumors that Fox, 25, is pregnant. “They’ve been saying that every three months ever since we got married, and it’s sort of one of those things that they love to say,” Green, 38, said.
“I think it’s interesting,” he added. “I think there is a part of Megan that people really love that is, at 18 she found a relationship and she stuck with it, and we’ve been together for coming on eight years now. It will be our two-year wedding anniversary, but we’ve been together for a long time. She doesn’t represent what people are used to seeing in a young actress.”

I don’t know how accurate Brian’s belief is that people “really love” Megan for being in a long-term relationship for so long. In fact, for a few years there, Megan all but denied being happy with Brian and had a habit of “breaking up” with him whenever she had a Transformers movie to promote. Now they’re married, and maybe Kaiser is right when she suspects that a baby would soften Megan’s image. Hey, it’s a tactic (intentional or not) that’s sort of working for January Jones already.
Here are some recycled photos from a month ago of Megan and Brian out with his son, Cassius, for lunch in Los Angeles. She doesn’t look pregnant at all here, but she’s been keeping her stomach well hidden for the past month or so, so who knows?

Atta girl! That was dirty pool.
Wow–his “formal apology” is so passive-aggresively dickish.
That said–are celebrities promoting product promotion, now? It’s so meta.
For real!!! How can you promote a promotion? Yeesh. It’s just an ad campaign!
I disagree that she is able to move her face. Most of it ain’t moving. Her forehead is frozen.
Zelda,
The interviewer is so annoying. And Megan looks a mess. So was so pretty before.
Steve Jones just made a big journalistic mistake! What an idiot he is. Whether she is prego it was a no no topic for the interview. Megan did handle it well…good for her!
My god, she is so young and her botoxy face (to the max) can barely make any sort of expression. Wow. Good luck with the ageing process, Megan, lol.
I think she looks like she got some fresh fillers in these pictures. Best way to deny a pregnancy I guess. Or can you do those things while pregnant??
It’s a shame, she looked much better before all the surgery she had. And what’s up with her voice? She sounds ridiculous in that interview…
I agree, she has mutilated her face beyond human. She was so pretty, it wasn’t necessary. It makes her look much older than she is.
I don’t think any woman should have to answer questions about her uterus or pregnancy status. I am really tired of the media (and some comments on gossip blogs) acting like they are owed some kind of status update on women’s wombs!
She looks really pretty. Hopefully she’s leaving her face alone.
She’s not; it’s mostly plastic. At least 2 nose jobs, cheek implants, jacked lips, a LOT of Botox. You can’t tell? She’s on a par with Priscilla Presley, Cher and Loni Anderson, who are old women in comparison, but they’ve lost their ability to register any emotions – frozen faces. Looks comical in interviews 😀
that´s megan fox? is a totally diferent person
That’s what I thought! I remember the night I saw Transformers I cried myself to sleep because I thought she was just so pretty. Now I feel much better about myself.
She looks like a plastic doll in the E! Pictuers she really needs to stop.
+1
Usually on the fence about anything Megan Fox but on this occasion I’m going with her for two reasons… one – even celebrities have a right to privacy over anything “inner body” but particularly early in a pregnancy for previously well documented reasons and two – I don’t know who the interviewer is but he sounds like a right cock. “…Attacking her with the word baby…” Someone thinks he’s pretty smart and funny when he just comes off as an arse.
She’s really pretty, but she looks to be about 40. Also, why does she ALWAYS wear leggings or sweatpants or UGGGGGGS when she’s papped out and about with her husband? I find her lack of fashion sense offensive.
Yes. How dare she. Make sure to tell her that so she can get on with pleasing you.
LMAO! That first pic is priceless. Y’all sure know how to pick the cream of the crop!
“The ultimate gadget that every man wants? Are you going to give someone a baby?”
Is this 1952? Poor Megan, I would have slapped him. For all he knows there was no announcement because she miscarried or something (I really hope not, but you never know which is why it’s rude as hell to ask, especially when already told not to).
That’s what I was thinking – miscarriage. She looks pained in those pix, and I don’t think it’s from Botox and fillers.
What a prick, both for asking that question and his sarcastic “apology.”
Wait…I’m totally confused why she’s acting like she’s some huge star. Shutting down an interview? Come on, if we’re being honest, she should be glad she’s even getting interviewed.
amen to that.
it was her publicist that stopped him, not her.
she looks a bit like Emily blunt in the screencaps
YES– I was thinking the same thing. She’s morphing into Emily Blunt!
Since when did a baby become a gadget?Terrible segway.Megan handled the situation better than I thought she would!
“The ultimate gadget? Do you know the ultimate experience that no man wants? A prostate exam. Have any of those recently?”
What a gross interviewer and what a dickhead ‘apology’.
Megan was going to answer the question. Her PR person in the background was the one that cute the interview off..
I don’t think anyone has the right to ask you if you are pregnant. I get gossip. If you are showing then yeah the question can be asked, but if you are not it is intrusive. But talk show host and entertainment interviews are asking way too personal questions. NONE of your business until they decide to tell you.
But we live in a new world where the public actually thinks they have the right to know.
I like her and I think the interviewer is an a-hole. That was inappropriate. So what if she is or she isn’t. Its up to her to make that announcement. That was probably what the interviewer was hoping for ‘the big scoop’.
I agree miss, another point if the “stars” are so great, then why do they need their pr people hand holding them through interviews; don’t they have confidence in their own intelligence?
Sadly, the answer is often “no.”
Have you ever been interviewed by somebody who is really good at it? It’s really difficult to stick to what you might have previously prepared or decided on, especially on camera when you’re very aware of how you come across to an audience.
her natural beauty is all but diminished.
She never had “natural” beauty but I would kill to look like the 2007-2009 mildly plastic version. 2007-2009 Megan is probably the most beautiful woman I have ever seen.
@ zen, you obviously missed megan’s high school pics where she still looked stunning. Even as a teenager, she was already beautiul. Her face was the same shape, albeit chubbier. I dont get it, I see the same botoxy look from AJ as well, her nose looks a different shape as well, and yet shes hailed as a natural beauty. I just think some people hate on Megan just because of who she is, to me she is a beauty and no, i dont think she looks like a mess. I bet she looks better than most of the women who comment here.
I cant believe what she has done to her face. she has mental issues. she needs help! why cant her husband stop her?
She’s going to be Lara Flynn Boyle in a couple years if she keeps up those fillers. I think she probably is pregnant. There have been no outright denials and her face looks fuller.
Why not just answer the question? Was it rude of the reporter to ask – yes. But really…who cares if someone is pregnant…unless you have a history of miscarriages its not that big of a deal.
Careful Meg. You’re beginning to look like Kim kartrashian.
Odd the very first comment is a dig at her thumbs. Does this really matter? Who cares? Pointing out someone’s physical difference like that seems completely necessary and really immature, something you might hear on the playground.
“Megan all but denied being happy with Brian and had a habit of “breaking up” with him whenever she had a Transformers movie to promote.”
I wonder if that was Cry-Bay-B’s doing? Gotta keep the fan-boys happy and thinking that they “have a chance”.
She looks like Faye Resnick. This is not a good thing. I think Faye Resnick is 50. She’s some ho who was involved in the OJ thing and was on RHOBH as a friend of Kyle Richards.

Why on earth are they interviewing her about a Sharper Image ad campaign? Surely she or her people knew they’d ask about the rumors.
But I don’t think “reporters” should ask that sort of thing. It’s no one’s business until the celeb chooses to make an announcement.
She looks freakish and at least 40 with the receding hairline and dead eyes. Is this woman really 25?
She’s only 25??? Well, she really messed up……
I find her face and persona to be too plastic and manufactured for me to ever find her attractive or likeable. And her acting ability is nil. Why this girl is still a ‘thing’ is beyond me.
When did Steve Jones go to ET?
When they paid for his soul, it seems. I loved him on T4, now he’s asking stupid, rude questions on ET. He would never have done that in the UK.
Isn’t it illegal for the media to speculate before a woman announces her pregnancy now in the UK? That should be law everywhere, I can’t imagine how hurtful it would be if you miscarried.
You know if the Lifetime network is looking for a crappy actress to play Liz Taylor, I would rather see Megan’s crappy Liz, than Lohan’s crappy Liz…at least Megan has the right coloring…
Wow, she must have done a lot of work practicing for interviews because she handled that really well, especially when you consider all the other interviews that were just diarrhea of the mouth. She comes across as very likeable in that clip, which isn’t something I normally would have thought about her. Maybe she did get a reality check and has come out of Megan-land.
Also, interviewer man, you’re doing ET, you’re not Larry King. No one watches ET for the hard hitting questions that everyone wants to know but no one is brave enough to ask. Maybe the baby issue is off limits for a reason- perhaps a very painful one. What a d-ck.
I know it made me laugh so much. It’s like when people “oh sorry you took it that way”. That’s not an appology asshole.
