Yikes. I’ve just been looking at the slideshow for Megan Fox’s Rolling Stone cover shoot, and this sh-t is not good. First, the cover shot – what were they thinking?!? Mark Seliger is the photographer, and he must have said, “Let’s throw a Victoria’s Secret leotard from 1994 on Megan, get her to spread her legs for the camera and see how cheap we can make her look!” Also: Mouth-breather alert! There are eight images in all in the slideshow, and Megan only has her mouth closed in one of the photos. That’s bad enough, but the way the shoot was styled is epically ghastly. These look like cheap, terribly lit outtakes from an “adult film” starring Jenna Jameson.

As far as the full Rolling Stone interview, it hasn’t been put up yet, but Us Weekly does have some excerpts. Note: earlier today, we covered Page Six’s excerpt from the interview too – in which Megan was describing her relationship with Brian Austin Green and she said: “”I’ve had to say to Brian, ‘You have to go and stop talking to me, because I’m going to kill you. I’m going to stab you with something. Please leave.’ I’d never own a gun for that reason. I wouldn’t shoot to kill. But I would shoot him in the leg, for sure.” Now we’re being “treated” to more of Megan’s stupid bulls- … ugh, just read it:

In her new Rolling Stone interview, the Jennifer’s Body star, 23, admits she used to cut herself.

“Yeah,” she replied when asked if she’s ever cut herself. “But I don’t want to elaborate. I would never call myself a cutter. Girls go through different phases when they’re growing up, when they’re miserable and do different things, whether it’s an eating disorder or they dabble in cutting.”

(Interestingly, Angelina Jolie — to whom Fox has been compared — has admitted she used to cut herself as a teen.)

Asked if she has ever had an eating disorder, Fox remained mum.

“If I did talk about it, I’d be taking on a role-model status, and I’d have to choose my words very carefully, and I’d have to make sure I reveal it in a specific way, and I don’t want to do it,” she said.

But the Tennesse native didn’t hold back when talking about her low self-esteem.

“I’m really insecure about everything,” said Fox. “I never think I’m worthy of anything… I have a sick feeling of being mocked all the time. I have a lot of self-loathing.”

Still, she said, “Self-loathing doesn’t keep me from being happy. But that doesn’t mean I don’t struggle. I am very vulnerable. But I can be aggressive, hurtful, domineering and selfish, too. I’m emotionally unpredictable and all over the place. I’m a control freak.”

Oh, for the love of God. First the schizophrenia and now she’s a cutter but she “doesn’t want to talk about it”. That sounds… [sarcasm] believable. No, of course that’s not something she just said just so people would pay attention to her, right? For the record – I’m aware that some girls do go through a stage where they cut and self-harm. It’s a big deal, and should be treated very seriously. What I don’t care for is Megan’s whole vibe of “Oh, yeah, I’m a cutter, but I don’t call myself that, and I don’t want to talk about it even though I brought it up.” Since the Us Weekly piece brought up Angelina Jolie, let me point out – when Angelina talked about being a cutter, she spoke about it with a lot of honesty, and went into detail about why she did it and how she was feeling. She spoke about it through the scope of trying to educate and explain, not as some quick, asinine “look at me, I’m so weird!” poseur hit. Gah! I need to go bang my head against a wall.
